Guys, here it is the new TouchPal Contacts version 4.3.0 patched to clear missed call notification, with an added bonus (over the previous one): it doesn't require NotiGo anymore!
Also, since in this new version the background service uses low ram (5mb in my case), i didn't disable it.
Upcoming patches:
- add translations (i'll do the italian one, please translate the strings.xml file and post it so that i can add it in the new releases)
- customizable number formatting
Installation:
Simply install the zip from CWM recovery!
[THE FOLLOWING IS VALID FOR THE OLD VERSION ONLY]
Hi to all,
I like very much Touchpal Dialer, but it had some problems for me to be my daily dialer:
it launches a background service that eats 10-15 MB of precious ram (other similar apps don't have any bg service);
it does not clear missed call notifications (on Gingerbread, as all non stock dialers), and you cannot move it as a system app (e.g. using Titanium Backup) because doing so it crashes
it (like many other dialers) does not open when i tap on a missed call notification...
So I patched this app to work as it should be out of the... market!
I changed the service so that now it runs only when TouchPal is open;
I added support for NotiGo, so now TouchPal clears missed calls notifications also on Gingerbread.
But for this to work you have to install NotiGo (see the first post) and install TouchPal after that.
Finally, I added support for the Galaxy missed call notification, so you can finally open TouchPal's call log when tapping on a missed call, instead of the built in (crap) call log.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
For the techs this is what I've done:
In SmartDialerService, method ensureService(), I replaced the call to startService() with bindService(), because every TouchPal activity calls ensureService on creation;
In SmartDialerService I added a new method askForStop() to shut down the service when no TouchPal activity is using it, and added a call to this in the onDestroy() method of every TouchPal activity;
In DialerActivity and CallLogActivity I added the call to NotiGo to clear the notifications;
In the AndroidManifest.xml I added an intent support for the action"com.sec.android.app.dialertab.calllog.DetailViewActivity", which is broadcasted when you tap a missed call notification. Also, obviously, added permission support for NotiGo ("thinkpanda.permission.CLEAR_MISSED_CALL")
For further details, please decompile the apk and compare the smali files to the original ones.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Please give me feedback on this mod, and if you like it hit Thanks!

Does it display any error? I have not MIUI so i can't test.
But we can test if it is a problem of touchpal or of the builtin contacts app.
If you can install AnyCut (or a similar app) from the market, try to add a new shortcut ("Make your own") using these parameters (without quotes):
Action: "android.intent.action.INSERT"
Type: "vnd.android.cursor.dir/contact"
Then go to the home screen and tap on the new shortcut.
If it doesn't open the "Add Contact" dialog, there should be some problem with the builtin contacts app.
This app replaces the app from market, is it?
Then if we use your app we can't update Touchpal from Market without loosing "steroid"?
cannot install NotiGo.
SOLVED: Gotta use edify's one

Yes you should be able to update it from market.
Obviously doing so you lose all the customization I made.
I wrote to Cootek asking them to integrate my mods in the dialer, since they can do it in minutes.
So far no answers...

It's a pity, since I like TouchPal Dialer so much, but these "features" i don't like are always there, and ...no reply from them ever.
Thank you for your "version", anyhow: I like it!

With KeepRunning you could monitor apps and restart them. You need this if
- Android kills an app to free RAM
- An app crashes
This app has no background service and does not need RAM if it is not checking apps. It restarts only apps which was already running since last system startup, by the user or Android system. System apps are marked with an exclamation mark.
Available options:
Minimize all apps after an app was restarted
Duration of the monitoring intervall
Donation:
No self-promotion in the app.
More than 3 apps could be selected
Bring back last visible app after starting an app
Start apps, even not ever running since system startup
You support this app and further development!

My personal intension to create this app:
I'm using the messenger Trillian which has random FCs. Now Cerulean Studios has"pimped" the UI in a way I don't like. So I have to use the old version with known bugs.
To not miss messages anymore, i restart Trillian after crashes with this app
Now i'm using it also for daily crashes of WhatsApp

Is this an Xposed module or standalone? (Other great apps work with Xposed.)
no module applications ...
Wow, sounds amazing, I could use this for my CarPC.
Would it be possible to add an per-app option to only recover the app when the screen is on ?

Per-app? A global option "restart apps only of screen is on" would be much easier
So if the time interval is set to 20 minutes, the app check every 20minutes if the selected apps are still running and if they dont, keep running start them again?
Do i get this right?

Yes.
I think "20" is a good value
* you do not miss messages etc to long
* not many checks of the apps, no impact to battery (20 min -> 72 cheks/day)
But you could set whatever you need

Just pushed to Play Store. The logfile shows "sleeping" if
* the setting is enabled
* the screen is off
* an app is detected as not running
Bad side: needs api7. For Android <=2.0 i would have to watch screen-on/-off events :-\

How about returning to previous active app instead of homescreen then? Returning to the homescreen interrupts ongoing use of the phone.

Great idea, i will check if it is possible to get the current focused app. But it could be that there is a short (<1 second) interruption anyway

Notice to @kalashenicof @jzak1083 @vipa
Cool app
I, too, wish they would've kept Trillian looking like that old school Gingerbread style, but it's hard to expect them not to upgrade the UI, I guess...
Hi guys here you have a proper review of the Nougat firmware for the S7 edge based on my personal experiences.
So I installed it yesterday night via odin thx to @laimonas777.
With my own experiences I can say it is not as nice as I had thought.. It's hard to use, it's full with small bugs and delays and sometimes it can even freeze up to 30 seconds (My experiences).
Every app has got the new GraceUI of the Galaxy Note 7 including the settings app.
One of the best Nougat features, the display scaling option has got "only" 2 different options which do not differ that much from the standard option.
Let's talk about the Notification panel. You now have 6 toggles visible at the top but you cant swipe anymore. When you pull the statusbar twice you will see 9 toggles per page. Its much harder to find one toggle you are searching for because of the 3 toggle pages. On Marshmallow all toggles were visible in one "page".
Also the colors could have been better but I think everyone has its own opinion there.
Something which is also weird is that you have a search bar on the notification panel but actually you cant type anything in there. Instead, this textfield will just open the finder app.
The camera has got newer options and a totally different but perfect UI which I really like. But the new color modes are actually not that important features and were also aviable partially in 6.0.
Lets move on to the recent apps panel, which is a big pain.. The recent items got taller just like in stock nougat but the scrolling is a very big pain. Its just as the android nougat developer preview 1 for nexus devices also there are some minor graphical glitches which I have shown in the video.
Another thing I want to mention are the notifications. And yes, they are ugly but i am sure samsung will fix that. On every notification where you can tap for an action (example whatsapp, to reply) is a grey bar, which looks horrible. You can see it in the attached ss
Performancewise it hasnt got big changes but dont forget the delays when opening some specific apps etc. The battery consumption is also a bit higher but all these will get fixed with the final build (hopefully).
But now lets talk about the positive things :silly:. The Multiwindow option has got much better than it was on all other touchwiz versions, in short, its almost the same as in stock android nougat. Another thing which is perfect is the Window apps mode where you can open apps in window mode. We all know how bad this option was in Touchwiz, maybe no one of you ever have used it but now the window mode is very good and snappy. The negative thing there is that you cant deactivate these both modes anymore. So always when you try to pull down the notification panel from the right or left top corner, it will just open the current app always in window mode which is quite annoying.
And something which is annoying like hell is that if you play a game like doodle jump where you dont need to touch the screen the screen always turns off after a while. So the auto screenoff option doesnt get disabled while playing games or (maybe) even while watching a movie.
Galaxy Labs is now removed, so now you cant get all apps on your homescreen and you cant hide the appdrawer.
Remember that this is a very early beta build, and all of these bugs are normal and wont be there in the finale build.
Here is a quick video about the update to see how it looks
What about a dark theme...it was rumoured that Android N will have a dark theme not only that light one. Also the existing themes in store (for Samsung) work properly on N or not?

Keep in mind this is the frist beta released from samsung, so some things might hopefully change by the release of the final firmware. Also, you do have scaling other than going through the developer options. Go to Display -> Font and you will get to cgoose both the Screen zoom (which is set to almost huge idk why) and of course the font size. This comes to be as tha Normal and Condensed options back from marshmallow.
Hey glad to help. nice rview my friend. . :good:
P.S What happened to the hand?
I'm using the ota build and its running lovely to be fair
Touchwiz is rubbish anyways and just install nova which makes Icons smaller

Hello, thank you for great review. Could you confirm one exciting feature of android 7 (atleast for me) that it works on this phone beta software.
As of Android 7.0 phone can read 2G/3G/LTE frequency without ROOT. Easiest way is to install app Cellmapper(mapping cell towers to map) https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cellmapper.net.cellmapper&hl=en
Could you run this app and post screenshot while connected to LTE only(no wifi)? Also, maybe send debug report from settings menu to developer with screenshot.
Thank you

Strange review .... I have been using it also since yesterday, and it is faster and smoother then my MM stock ...
Agreed there is some laggs when double tapping the multi tasking bouton, but overall its snapier and more responsive.
Also I have not noticed any freeze. I find this beta very polished to be honest.
Have you done a full wipe before installing ? or OTA ?

It's not a review, it's a rant. I literally have no issues with it, no freezes what so ever, it's actually snappier than MM.
I think the 'review' tag should be removed from this thread or it should be locked, as it is full of false information and the corrections to that false information have been given, but the 'review' hasn't been updated. If people read this thread thinking it is accurate, they will get false information.
The comment about display options, for instance, is just the OP not knowing what to do. It's not something wrong or an option that has been removed, it's just a lack of knowledge.

Hi everyone, I have a simple question that bother me a bit. If I remember correctly, when I used for the first time this phone, I saw a black little banner at the top of the screen for an incoming call, like the ones for the notification s. Now, when I'm using it and I receive a call, there is no banner at the top (useful if I don't want to answer the call and keep doing my stuff), instead the call appear in the whole screen.
There is a way to add this banner for an incoming call?
Thank you in advance!

There is an option for the heads up notification under settings --> notification and control panel --> notification centre. From there you can modify different apps for the heads up notification, the lock screen notification and the status bar. I have this option for many apps such as what's app or Facebook, but there is no phone app. That's the main problem! And I remember at the beginning, when I had this phone for the first day, I could answer a call from this heads up notification. I also tried to turn all the listed apps on but without success.

Ok, it's the same in EMUI 4.1. I find the process and, sadly, the notification "banner" is on.
I also discover when i'm watching a video on youtube or with the player video, the call actually appear in the pop-up notification, so maybe it work for every devices like that. Now i'm curious if it is the same for your phones. Do the pop-up notification appear only when you are watching a video and if u are doing different stuff it appear at full screen?
Unless the app that is sending the notification is the one running if you've got banners turned on you should see them.

I have used ADB regularly to remove apps so I am familiar with the process. My question is - There are four pre-installed phone apps. Not sure if I should delete all four or just the actual dialer app.
They are:
Phone – com.android.dialer
Phone – com.android.phone
Phone Management – com.android.incallui
Phone Service – com.android.server.telecom
Phone/Messaging Storage – com. Android.providers.telephony
Thanks for any help or insight you can provide.

Deleting only [com.android.dialer] will work well for third-party apps.
it's not working also, DO NOT uninstall com.android.phone
I am adding myself to this thread, as I regularly use Google Dialer on other phones with ROMs more dev-friendly.
I installed the patched apk from Xda but when I receive a call, it's still showing the default Vivo dialer.
I replaced it in the default apps and also applied all the security permissions to app and in security center, but still no success.
Any idea?

Not sure of Chinese version but works fine in international version nex s.
Then try activity launcher method.
Install activity launcher app
Open app select all activities in the drop down at top
Scroll down and navigate to settings in the list
Open settings and check for Default App and click on it
Default app window will be launched.
Now select phone from there and select the dialer u wish to use.

Thanks a lot. This is working for me also.
It doesn't work for me. Do I have to deactivate the original app via ADB?

no, at least for me i didn´t use adb for changing the stock phone app.
The activity launcher method didn't work on my Chinese NEX with Android 8 but it works very well after I upgraded to Android 9.
Thanks for the guidance, it works perfectly NEX 3
Download activity launcher from App Store
Search for settings
Look for default apps
Select the new dialer app as default
Done
Note: you have to ensure that all permissions and notifications are activated for the new dialer app
It works for me with my Nex 3
There are multiple apps by the same name as "Activity launcher"
can anyone please tell me which is the correct one?
I want to change default dialer of Vivo Y55
Thanks
