[Q] Dialer app problem - General Questions and Answers

Hi, I have the problem that when i install a dialer app (because i don't like the look of the stock dialer and contacts) I get asked every time which app I want use to open the dial pad even if I choose to use ALWAYS my dialer app. It seems Android doesnt want to save my decision. I tried different roms and different dialer apps (Pixelphone and Rocketdialer) but the issue persists. I thought it could be the launcher and tried also another launcher but same prob.
What can I do?
I'm on KitKat Echoerom Galaxy S4 GT-I9505

Touchwiz Phone app p6210

Ok so I dont know if this is common knowledge but on the stock launcher and go launcher there seems to be no way to access the " Phone" application . However when I installed Adw EX launcher it magically appeared allowing me to dial there. However when i go into the app drawer there is no sign of a " Phone " app. Is there any way i can get the apk to be accessible in the app drawer ( of any of the launchers )
screenshot of *magically appeared* please..
I didnt think their was a phone anywhere, maybe SIP / Internet calling.
try "any cut" app, select cusom acivity, should show a long list of available acions/intents/apps which can be launched,etc.
what would you with a dialer anyway?
If you want VOIP try GrooveIP, one of the best.
Here are the screenshots of my findings. I used groveip for a good while but now I use Talkatone .. Essentially the same but with more features. When I click call , the call goes through Talkatone but u like the interface of this dialer better
Not sure what model your usimg but its always been there. Just grab it from the app drawer.

probably same as 6200 but obviously only connects through VOIP/SIP.
are you rooted? if so, try browsing to /system/app and find and install phone.apk, (must already be installed, but re-installing might cause it to show up in app drawer)and contacts.apk as well.
Stock Launcher may very well have the .apks hidden...or...maybe you ned to have a VOIP/SIP/internet calling account signed in or enabled in settings first?

AOSP Phone dialer

The cmod phone dialer is fully and I want to use the original phone dialer that comes with the nexus 5.
How would I go about doing this?

have you searched the web for the dialer you are looking for? Also are you rooted
Also I am really not sure about what you wrote but it sounds like you want to use the 4.4.4 dialer but remember stock Oneplus is 4.4.2 which have different dialers if I remember correctly
the nexus 5 doesnt use the aosp dialer. cm does. the nexus 5 dialer can show business names associated with a number. sorta like if you look up a place in google maps and itll list a number for it, but in reverse. its not open source but you can try installing it on your phone, it may not work.
I had both dialers running on my Nexus 4 so it is possible just either have to find the zip file or if there is an apk out there

Change Dialer Application with TouchWiz

Guys,
I would like to know if it's possible to change the touchwiz default phone application, when clicking on this I would like to launch exdialer search contacts / get dialpad rather than the stock phone application.
Is there any way to do this (rooted or non-rooted)..
Cheers
I would also like to know if this is possible.
Thank you
Maybe with tasker you can set a command?
Tasker looks like an interesting option

It's the only thing that comes to mind but I never could get myself to learn how to use Tasker effectively

Has anyone fixed this issue yet?
I can't stand the stock dialer's UI. JB's dark themed dialer was such an improvement.
I have tried Wanam to try and code it out but not working there either although it did fix the main settings menu.
Desperately need a fix for the disgusting white dialer app as all 3rd party dialers use the stock samsung base code.

[Q] My phone does not allow any app (Direct Dial, 3rd party dialer) to call directly

I got a new OnePlus One and found out that I can't have the direct dial shortcut to call out automatically. It shows the stock dialer with the number to be dialed instead. This also happens when I use 3rd party dialer like Dialer One, ExDialer etc. All of them, when call is made, will just show the stock dialer with number to be dialed and stay there...
I have searched through the internet and couldn't find the solution for this. Anybody has any idea on how to solve this problem.
I'm using Cyanogen 11S 44R with Go Launcher and Dialer One (i've tried with and without Dialer One and Go Launcher installed still the same problem...)
Thank you very much in advance.
Best thing is u can report the dev....u can change the theme using layers manager if u don't like the stock theme..thats all I can say..

Complete replacement of Samsung Dialer

I love the Google Dialer, the way it displays picture is awesome. In front of it, Samsung dialer is ugly.
So, is there any method to completely the Samsung dialer with Google or similar AOSP dialer?
I know there are many apps available in the market which although replaces the contacts and call log screen, but when it comes to dialing the number, it reverts to stock dialer.
I have Note 5 running Moar 2.2.
Any views?

That's the page I used. Works absolutely fine on my sprint note 5 using rooted deodexed stock mm ROM.
Thanks, will try that after upgrading to MM.
Update: Flashed MM Rom and also flashed the Google dialer. Working fine and no FC however, whenever there is incoming call, it is not recognizing the name already stored in the contacts. But, when I look at the log, the names appearing properly.
I have given all the permission to Google dialer and contacts.
Any fix?
Update: Well I flashed the ROM again due to some other issue and after that I flashed the Google dialer zip.
Now all working fine. Thanks all
My kid loves to see her Grandpa's Pics when she or they call
Just wanted to let you know that with Marshmallow we now have the ability to choose the dialer the system uses. I was able to install the Google Dialer apk and set it as default. I'm not rooted and it's working well ☺
