Just wonder if its possible to get the old type of dialer back from 4.3 Jellybean and put it on 4.4 KK. I am not feeling this new dialer at all; the old dialer seems more ergonomic to me.
You prolly could push the older dialer and replace this one but dunno if it would run with the new bits from KK.

Is there anyway to patch the origional vanilla phone.apk with the contacts to skyrider3.0?
Lots of folks have tried and it just can't be made to work, as far as I know. The dialer is one of the things I hate the MOST about Sense, along with People. They'r'e the main reason I ran to an AOSP ROM as soon as there was a relatively stable one.
Hi guys!
Recently i switched my tf101 from eos3 to eos4 (i did it after TeamEOS introduced tablet ui mode) and i stuck with "phablet" UI of stock launcher itself. I tried to replace launcher2.apk from 4.2 with apk from 4.1 but all i got was force closes =(
Are there any means to set 4.2 stock launcher to tablet UI or install 4.1 stock launcher?
p.s i know about Apex and Nova launchers, but they all have small annoying flaws.
As far as I know, it's not possible without modifying the apk package. You can give it a shot, there's some decompilers available, but it was beyond my coding skills and time I was willing to invest. The launcher is usually tied with the version of android due to lots of differences in the code in major versions, so I'm assuming modifications needed to work properly are extensive... but I could be wrong.

Thank you for your suggestions.
TeamEOS 4 #116 ROM has returned the Tablet bar style launcher like 4.1 had, you just change to "Tablet bar" in settings

Hey.
Is there any posibility get back Kitkat lockscreen an dialer after Lollipop update?
Well it wouldn't be called Lollipop if it was still Kit Kat now would it?
Go back to a kit Kat rom. I thinks that's your only solution for now.

So I did, but that is really not a solution to the problem. I want to remove the heads up messages on the locks screen and replace this are with the security lock so that I do not have to swipe up to get to the pattern unlock/pin for the device.
I guess you can edit the lock screen applications in the rom, I am all up to it, but lacking the experience to know where to start.
I think what many are going to want is the features from the Kitkat lock screen (those of us who use it as a music player rather than wanting all those idiotic notifications) while using lollipop. About the only 2 features of the new lollipop lockscreen I like are that the camera is easier to get to and the flashlight. Other than that, I want the old one back. If someone made an app that would add these features back to the lock screen for lollipop users, it would be really popular on the Google Play store.
I like the G3 interface and many of the features. I prefer less bloatware than AT&T comes with and I don't need all of Goofles crap either, but I an get rid of them. I just want a rooted ROM with the Nexus dialer. I've tried most of the ROM's posted here and none of them have it. I don't really want to use a 3rd party launcher to do it so any suggestions? Anything I might have missed?
You can get .apk from here http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/1...ll-it-manually-on-other-kitkat-roms-download/ i used the flashable version on cloudy v1.2 and just go to app drawer and move phone to home screen(blue icon not green one)
I'll give this a try...
But from what I've read you can't fully replace the stock dialer and the caller I'd feature doesn't work. It's worth a shot though, thanks.
Hi,
I posted before as well and based on my limited knowledge I know for a fact that it is not that difficult for a modder to do.
I am dying for stock lollipop google dialer and contacts On my note 3 lollipop.
i have managed to run contacts perfectly using this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=58214520&postcount=3353
but the dialer does not work
This link is for htc one m8 and someone made specifically for m8 users to flash and wnjoy atock dialer and contacts apps.
I just want the same for note 3, N900.
Plsssssssss I Beg U Guys.
Just tried messing about with this. Google contacts works fine but dialer carriers fc. Tried removing Samsung contacts tele and TeleService apk and flagging but dialer does not work.
My guess is there is lib files missing for dialer or telecom or TeleService. Just a guess though.

Yup, same when i tried.
Stock lollipop dialer and contacts look amaaazing.
My bro's nexus 5 makes me drool for stock android apps.
hope someone ports it.
i really wish for this too
