Hi Everyone,
if anyone is interested, you can get both aosp google dialer and people app to work on the G3. Here's how:
1. Download the zip
2. extract the files to your phone (sd card)
3. with a root explorer, copy them over to system/
4. set proper permissions (644) on both files
5. copy these files over to system/priv-app/ from system/
6. rename LGContacts.apk to LGContacts.apk.bak (or change the extension of the file to anything)
Blacked out dialer and contacts app - thanks for the findings, @Kameirus
The blacked out Google dialer is made by Thyrus here at XDA
And not sure who did the blacked out contacts/people apk..I found it in one of my phone modding folders
Install instructions are the same as above.

Wow thanks! I'll be curious to see if this works flawlessly for others before I try it myself. Those are the last two apps I need to change to get back to the AOSP feel, aside from "Settings" of course.

Tried this and was unable to get the phone or contacts apps to show
Same here no go
Hope someone figures it out
thats an easy fix..will look into it later on..im still using the same apks from my old n5
Did you guys use the files I provided? Did you rename it? The LGcontacts app to have different extension? It's important because it has the same package name as Google contacts and therefore Google 's contacts app won't show up.
for those who dont know..u need to create a shortcut activity for googlephone by using a launcher like nova..apex..etc

Well, thanks but I didn't need that and checked on stock launcher and they do show up both... Is it possible that it's due to different system languages? U can also try to rename the extension of the LG phone up (dialer), see if that works.

thats because u got it working..im talking about to those who cant get this working..a solution would be to use nova launcher because it allows u to run a specific activity within the app

yeah, i understand that, but if it works on my system, it should on others as well that was my point
would not advise to rename lg phone app, as I did and got into an endless "com.android.phone" process stop. contacts app works though but phone app does not show on stock launcher.

U need a deodexed Google dialer app.
Just install the google dialer with proper permissions and then hide the LG phone app in your drawer. Did this a week ago cause I missed my dialer from running PA on my G2. Also OP is that the 4.4.4 dialer? Cause android police had the older dialer up when I downloaded it. Had to rip the one outta the PA G2 rom I ran on my G2.
Also I am using nova launcher an do not have to create a shortcut. Just put the icon on my home screen and it opens up just fine.
Sent from my LG-D851 using XDA Free mobile app
So does this work? I got the Google dialer installed a few weeks ago but frankly hated it, could never get it to do what I wanted. Long press a contact to edit? No go. Plus all it did was launch the LG dialer in the end. If this fully replaces the LG dialer I Amy give it another try.
Phone shortcut didn't appear in the drawer for me, but I was able to add it to the stock launcher with "Activity Launcher" from the play store.
In the app, All activities -> Google dialer -> Phone (DialtactsActivity)

Any chance you got out of the infinite bootloop without having to flash the stock ROM? If you did let me know how. Thanks!

Yes, and it was a nightmare, took about 20 min. Reboot phone, and with one hand keep hiring the Ok button of the error message and with the other hand try navigating the menus one by one. Go to system /priv-app/.
Find LG phone app, lgteleservice or something like that, click it, install it, then I used room toolbox pro to convert it to user app and set permissions 644. Reboot and got out of loop. And then quickly renamed back the apk.
All the best and good luck.
This worked for me! All works good!!! I had some activities widget already on my F400s and it let me add the dialer.
Looks same as my Nexus 5 now! And finally got rid of the Korean on the stock dialer.
Happy! Thanks to the OP!

So I can across the system dump for the Acer Liquid and I was intrigued by the UI, it's truly one of a kind for android. I went ahead and pulled the main apks from the /system/app in the dump and installed them on my Epic, and what do you know they worked!
Getting It To Work
To get to work simply copy the attached apks to somewhere on your sdcard, and install them with your favorite file manager. Then click the home soft key and select the "Home" launcher (com.acer.android.breeze.launcher).
Note: I would recommend installing the launcher first, before installing Nemo Player, though it shouldn't mater. Just make sure you have both for increased performance.
What Works...
All functions of the launcher work to my knowledge, except for changing the background (long press on the "lock screen"), which force closes and reloads the launcher.
All soft keys also work as what they do normally.
A swipe to the left pulls up your recent app history, and a slide to the right pulls up your media.
Quick launch icons at the bottom work, and a swipe up brings up the launcher for all your apps, similar to the samsung launcher. (Slide right and left, not up and down.)

Hey, this is pretty cool. Works on my Evo too. Download Sms pop up so you'll be able to see when your texts come in. Needs some work, but its still really cool. The UI was done very different but very well.
Its just a cool concept for a launcher I thought, and just excuse the name of the download it added another .apk for some reason but it works the same as any other install. You have to put these files onto the sdcard to install it, you cant do it directly from the phone, and also dont rename the files.

-FOR THE SETTINGS AND WALLPAPERS TO WORK YOU HAVE TWO WAYS OF MAKING IT WORK
1) you have to push system/media/wallpaper and system/media/AcerDatabases into the system media folder.
which you can download it here both files http://www.4shared.com/file/X_tZG5Ms/Acer_Database_and_Wallpapers.html
2) you can manually download the original wallpapers from this phone from here,
http://www.4shared.com/file/X_tZG5Ms/Acer_Database_and_Wallpapers.html
and after you download the wallpapers you have to open it and drag it & save it to your SD Card.
When your done doing that you have to go back to your homescreen and open on your menu and open the "Gallery application" that came with your phone. after you open your "gallery app" go to folder or wallpapers that you saved on your sd card, (which the gallery app will read from your sd card when you open the application) , and open any wallpaper image and when you see the full image , just go to your options and SET IT AS A WALLPAPER, when your phone is done setting the wallpaper just go back to your homescreen and and go back to your application menu and look in your menu for a application call "HOME DECOR" , (this application automatic install when you download the home launcher), open it and it will no longer force close anymore, Now u can even go back to your homescreen and just long press the screen (like you would do to open a widget) and it will no longer force closes, now you can change your wallpapers and settings.
sorry but you have to manually set up each wallpaper from your gallery app, it wont let you do it from the "HOME DECOR" app cuz it wont recognize it, unless you do the FIRST STEP, But this is the only ways i got it to work.
hahaha came here trolling around cuz someone said the epic sms app is different from the tmo vibrant but found this. works awesome, thanks bud.
Is this from Acer's newest dump?I found ver 1.0 on Mobilism.org but it came from "Acer Liquid Stream" system dump,is that another version of Liquid or same as original?
Big Thanx,everything is working now even "long press" on lockscreen.I went to wallpapers and "set as wallpaper" set a wallpaper and now long press on lockscreen and acer settings no longer fc!Now if only acer smoothen this up a bit but im still gonna use it as my eveyday launcher.

did you delete the previous one? what I usually do is change the one in the system already is add an .bak at the end of .apk (vending.apk.bak) as to keep it there for a back up and make sure when you move over the other one make sure to correct permissions. Not sure if you tried that yet but if not, give it a go and it should do the trick.
Also when you move it over, do you have system as rewritable? (obviously you need to be rooted to so ) if you are make sure that you gave permission on the file explorer that your using. If all that fails, I can make one for you if you like.

I saved original apk on my SD-card and replaced it in /system/app with the black themed one with root explorer and rebootet and fixed permissions, but always the original market opens again, though there is no apk in /system/app. cant explain that

what you do, is go in to the app ( as if you were going to uninstall it ) and then stop , clear cache, clear data, swap out the apk and reboot in recovery wipe/ clear delvic/cache and that should do the trick . happened to me once before and got it to work that way.
Z
I normally replace the apk files in the ROM prior to flash.
Had no problem with Gmail, Drive, Youtube. But try as I can, just cannot get "Talk" to work.
Since I replace apks before flashing ROMS, I cannot use the one from Jules as that require a flash and a flash of "Part 2" as well. It does work that way, but not if I replace the original talk.apk with the one from his 1st zip file or 2nd.
The one by bradman117, just refuse to work for me ... whatever way I try, including flashing it separately.
Anyone know of any other "Talk" versions available that has full functionality?
Thanks

Because it was updated before you replaced it, so there's an apk (it might be called Phonesky, or Play depending) in data/app of the white market which overrides the one in system/app. You need to remove that one as well for the inverted app to show up.

I decided I really missed having a car home app when connected to my car. I never found one I liked in the market, so I decided to see if I could get the Google one to work.
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Download the latest Gingerbread GApps package from Goo.im (HERE)
2. Extract it to your SD Card.
3. Go to /system/app of the extracted zip and copy CarHomeGoogle.apk somewhere you will remember on your SD Card(I keep all of my mods/roms in a folder named "FLASH")
4. Copy CarHomeGoogle.apk to /system/app on the phone.
5. Change permissions to rw- r-- r--
6. Reboot & Set up to your liking.
NOTES
Save the apk where you can find it. You will have to perform steps 4 - 6 every time you flash. This includes the setup.
I haven't tried restoring with Titanium Backup, that may work as well. <-- If you backup/restore with Titanium Backup, all your settings are saved and you don't have to reboot.
Selecting the notification to exit car mode doesn't work, you have to use the button in the app.
Confirmed working on CyanogenMod 10 Official Nightlies & ParanoidAndroid 2.52
This should work on any rom. Let me know if it does/doesn't and I'll update the OP.

It's a launcher for using in your car. You can set it up to launch automatically when connected to certain bluetooth devices (like your car stereo).
It has 4 screens with 6 buttons on each screen. All of the buttons are programmable to launch apps or direct dial your contacts.
All of the icons are colorized to a single color for easy visibility. You pick the color in settings (Default is white).
I should also note that using the notification to exit car mode doesn't work, you have to hit the button in the launcher to exit.
You should just upload the apk to make it easier for people . I was a huge fan of Google car home but my love for it has. been replaced with car home ultra

Does the CM10 dialer still lack a horizontal mode? That's what annoyed me about car home on CM - car home is a great horizontal app, but whenever someone calls the sideways CM dialer popped up.

If on root explorer click the RW button at top of app. Don't know what the procedure is on other apps but they all have RW option.
As one of the guys said, you could have posted the apk itself, and save people some time.
But, thanks (I also hit the THANK you button..)
Working like a charm
Very useful... I'm still tweaked at the fact that they don't just keep supporting this app on newer roms. It was a great feature and really made it enjoyable when using my phone in my car
Car Home Ultra, all the way. I don't even look at my car's speedometer anymore.

You could also make a flashable zip for this to flash right after you flash a rom, or even just copy the apk into /system/app of the actual ROM zip you're flashing.
This was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you. I don't need all the junk found in those other apps. I just want the screen to darken and have 3-4 apps at my fingertips while driving and this fits the bill perfectly.

Hey guys, I'm having some pretty serious problems. I'm PWNMYMOTO rooted and not OTA updated (VZW), just for context's sake..
Hangouts and Keyboard work fine, but I am having issues with Play Services, Home, Now, and the launcher. The Play store and every Internet-connected app other than Chome won't connect to the network. My assumption is that this is a problem with Play Services. The launcher works fine but Now doesn't open with my voice.

Hey guys, I'm having some pretty serious problems. I'm PWNMYMOTO rooted and not OTA updated (VZW), just for context's sake..
Hangouts and Keyboard work fine, but I am having issues with Play Services, Home, Now, and the launcher. The Play store and every Internet-connected app other than Chome won't connect to the network. My assumption is that this is a problem with Play Services. The launcher works fine but Now doesn't open with my voice.

I installed uninstalled Play services from Root Explorer, then installed the new version after moving it in with Android File Transfer. I installed it, used RE to move Velvet.apk to system/app, (sidebar - what are the correct permissions for this? OP says "fix permissions"), then installed Home, moved the lib file, and rebooted. Just like it says.
Thanks
All these apps needs root to be installed?
Is the new dialer included in any of these?

No the dialer depends on too much of the KitKat OS. Most likely wont be getting that working as a separate app.

you NEED 4.4 for the full emojii support, or yes, you will only see the limited black and white
Clock
Clock does not install either... "there is a problem parsing"

Phone.apk will not install, parsing error, so I guess there's other system apps that are needed. Its missing the settings for the dialer

Hey guys quick update to my earlier issue - The Play Store and other apps fixed themselves! Everything works perfectly fine for me now. Still using Nova over the GE Launcher, don't want to open another can of worms.
Hey all.. I don't think I've seen a post about this so I thought I'd be the first to give you all a heads-up on Samsung's new lock app called Good Lock. It's a fairly new app and I'm sure they'll make improvements. It pretty much changes your lockscreen, notifications tray, and recent tabs. Let me know what you think of the app.
**Apparently some rooted users are having various problems (constant reboot and randomly uninstalls itself), so keep that in mind...
You can download this in the Galaxy App store

Saw this earlier today, haven't downloaded yet. Are your icons a previous theme or are they from this new Good Lock app?

The white outlined icons are from the theme store

I downloaded this today, and so far I like it! I wasn't sure at first, but the more that I use it, the more I enjoy it.
I like the new notifications menu. Looks a lot like stock Android. Wish u could use a custom lockscreen wallpaper, but besides that, it's pretty cool! I'm surprised that Samsung created something like this.
To answer your question, I'm pretty sure that those icons are from a previous theme. I haven't found any icon customization with this app
I tried the app, but it uninstalled itself after a bit playing around with it. It looked better than the stock lock screen and notification area (although I don't like the colours) and I'd like to keep the app. Is there a way to prevent that the app is automatically uninstalled?
In Nova Launcher pulling notification bar down is not flawless if you use gesture...
Just a warning that it doesn't work with rooted devices. I made the mistake of installing it on my rooted S7 and it caused constant reboots.
I've also uninstalled in for ithe time being because it didn't work with my Samsung led case. it kept asking for location. I've never had the uninstall problem or reboot problem. you can change the lockscreen by going to Samsung settings. I really hope they polish the app a bit more.

So far, I'm liking Good Lock. just a couple weird things. Looks like you no longer can customize the quicksettings tiles, and the recent apps switcher is much better, but if you use the button to bring it up and dismiss it (also using the button) then it goes to the Home App instead of the app I was in.

Are you rooted? If not, that explains why the reboot issue would never have happen for you.
Downloading now.
I tried it and uninstalled within minutes. The recent apps is horrible - separate chrome tabs are now nameless icons making it useless to find the tab you wanted, and I like having a preview of the open apps. Also, as mentioned, the MM notification draw pulldown bug in Nova is present, which drives me insane. And no lockscreen wallpaper choices, no thanks. The only reason I'd want to use it is the more stock android look, and that you can finally double tap a notification on the lockscreen to open it, which should be a thing on the current lockscreen anyway.

You select your wallpaper just as before from your phone settings/display and wallpaper.
So far I think I'll keep the Good Lock

I've also uninstalled it for the time being. I think they'll release a more stable version and probably get rid of the recent apps lol.

On your phone, go to your apps / Samsung folder / Galaxy Apps then download from there.

Hi there Sir Eagle. Could you upload the apk to dropbox or any? Seems like I can't download it through the GStore. Must be a country thingy.
