Apparently, the Google Play Moto G comes with the Kitkat dialer. Can we port this over to our Moto G Motorola edition phones?
We already have the kitkat dialer. We just don't have the silly "nearby places" function that is found on the Nexus 5.

No we don't have the Google Dialer. We also don't have the caller id function that uses Google business look up. The dialer being used is the AOSP version afaik.

Nope. On 4.4 we get the new dialer minor the nearby places and called ID function.
You can circumvent this simply downloading the apk.

Those features are the new dialer. Also, it's not as simple as downloading the apk. You have to download, give certain permissions and move to a protected folder via root. After that you still can't launch the damn thing without nova launcher because the icon impossible to add to your homescreen. Not a solution.

Yes, that's what I said. The dialer is there except those two features. And yes its simple. This is XDA, changing app permissions is the equivalent of 2+2 in arithmetic. If not there are ways to flash it as well.
And you don't need nova launcher. You can just get a shortcut maker in the play store, make the shortcut and uninstall. That's how I have it 0 problems.

The Moto G is not using the Google Dialer. Just look at the name of the APK. It is the AOSP dialer. On the Nexus 5, the dialer is called "Google Dialer". They are completely different APKs.

Well I haven't been called by anyone I don't know, so can't say anything about the ID. But nearby places works just fine. And you can't disable the stock dialer, or so I've been told. Haven't messed with it because I haven't seen the need to.

We went on a tangent, when I implied the non-GPE Moto G does come with the kikat dialer (as opposed to other non-GPE devices on kikat) aesthetic-wise, not functionality-wise. I then went on and said that if you want the functionality you can always flash the true Google dialer, which is now the discussion at hand.

You are confusing people by calling it the KitKat dialer. There are two dialers. The AOSP dialer and the Google Dialer. The Moto G is using the AOSP dialer which is not the same as the Google Dialer. And it is not the same aesthetic-wise since it is pretty much missing all of the features of the Google Dialer.

This is my last reply to you, as you seem to be taking this minute detail way too seriously, especially since the only confused here is you.
The aosp dialer and the Google dialer are identical sans the nearby places and the Google ID, features that do NOT impact the aesthetic of either app (aesthetic being how the 4.3 dialer differs from the 4.4). Like I mentioned, I was clarifying that the non-GPE Moto G comes with the Google dialer's look, sans the functionality (unlike other non-GPE phones on kikat). And that if you want to get the functionality, you have to get the true google dialer apk. You seem to be talking about the inherent apk difference, which is inconsequential to the context of this little tangent we went on.

How can the Icon be accesed via nova?
I copied teh GoogleDialer.apk with googleDialer.odex to /system/priv-apps and changed perm to rwrr.
Nothing happened (I thaught this action somehow affects the normal dialer, but now I think there should be an extra icon)

You wont see the dialer after installing the apk. You have to create an icon for it first. You don't need Nova Launcher to use it. I've been running it for a while on my Moto G with the Google Experience Launcher. Install the APK the way the instructions say and when you get to the part about installing Nova Launcher, skip that and install an app called Quick Shortcut Maker. Open Quick Shortcut Maker and scroll down to Google Dialer. After clicking on Google Dialer scroll down until you see Google Dialer phone.There are two of them, click on the first and create the shortcut and you're done. Make sure you have locations on and you might need to clear the data from the phone app in order for it to give you numbers for places in your area.
I dont see the googleDialer anywhere (not in the shortcut maker nor e.g. in titanium Backup as an app to uninstall; like copying the file has no effect.)
When I install the GoogleDialer.apk, the App is uninstallable (havent tried to add this as shortcut yet)

Hi I have a problem with my 8gb moto g occasionally the apps disappear I can click somewhere on the screen and it will start that app but can't see anything.
Seems like that's a glitch with the launcher. Try switching to nova launcher or apex launcher (you can download them from google play). You'll get more features from them too.

You're welcome, it seems that the default firmware on the moto g has issues with transparency in general, because sometimes chrome graphically glitches like this too. Maybe try a custom rom like cyanogenmod if you get more issues.

Hi i'd like to try and keep the phone standard don't want to void the warranty by putting a custom ROM on there anyway I'm on nova launcher now it is working great love the resizable widgets, thanks so much for your help. This is a very strange problem my last phone was a Chinese dual sim phone the standard launcher on that worked perfect I suppose for the great price of this phone we can expect a few small issues.

Hi i'd say the only solution if you don't want to install a different launcher is to wait for Motorola to release a software update. As for the home menu, you can change your default launcher with that and network operator just let's you automatically or manually select your operator.

Amalgamation lol. And yes that includes Dialer and Contacts, although I am using Google Dialer, which is EXACTLY like ours except it has the Google caller ID/search. I found inverted Google Dialer and Contacts in the Nexus 5 Themes & Apps forum, and one of the guys in there was kind enough to fine tune it for my Moto X. I also managed to find the old BAKED Mms.apk with full theming capabilities. Then I used a combination of GravityBox KK and XBlast in Xposed to black out the framework and SystemUI. I get most of my other inverted apps from Kryten2k35 (creator of UltimaROM) and Team Black Out. It took some work, and definitely some cherry-picking, but the result is pretty sweet. Stock rooted Moto X completely blacked out... except for my stock Moto Gallery app, of course lol.

Rename Dialer.apk, Dialer.odex, Contacts.apk, and Contacts.odex to .bak. Then move the ones I've uploaded to /system, fix permissions to rw-r--r--, then move to /system/priv-app. Should be all good.

The contacts.apk is fickle. I KNOW that one works, because I've managed to install it twice. But I did also have some trouble in between those two installations where it wouldn't show up. Idk what the actual issue is. I just kept at it until it worked. My best advice is to keep trying it with various combinations of rebooting, wiping cache and/or dalvik. All it takes is getting lucky one time and once the install actually sticks, you're laughing.

I have a T-Mobile G3 and had a similar experience. I install the app and open it. I select several apps to include in dual window and hit the "Apply" button. Then a button appears that says, "Reboot..." and that button does nothing. So I reboot the phone, and none of my changes are there. When I look at the app in app manager, it shows no data stored for the app.
I uninstalled, downloaded and installed again with the same result.
I would love for this to work. I wonder if it is conflicting with some other root app...an xposed module or something.
Guys,
You can enable all apps to work with multi-window if your rooted.
All you need to do is edit the build prop info

I use original Google phone, and pixel launcher.

Try using a different launcher. Pixel launcher makes you drag up to access your app folder. Maybe it affects the dialer too.

With out it it's the same. I think it's new dialer and android 7.1.1...

Install an alternate dialer from Google Play Store that is similar to MIUI one. There's no easy way to replace the embeded dialer as it's tied to other parts of the ROM (call ui, system ui, framework res, and so on)

call screen, does not change ?
Call screen is usually separate from dialer. In some ROMs they are even different apks.
If you install a different dialer, usually just the contacts/dialer is changed, the call screen (incall ui) remains the stock one. In order to have that changed, you need to be rooted and have several other things replaced. Also a different incall ui has to be generated at ROM build time as it is depending on system ui and framework res. You can't just replace files from another ROM.
