I've been lurking this forum long enough to know that those who ask redundant questions without searching will be shunned from any helpful answers. Lucky enough I've searched far and wide for an answer to this question. Is there any way to have a dialer that looks....different...much different from the stock dialer? The dialer that comes stock on the phone is so ugly and annoying to navigate in ways that I can't even describe in words. Then I came across the [attached] dialer and couldn't help but wonder HOW it's possible to get a dialer like this or similar to this. So clean looking, so simple...I am a total noob when it comes to android development, but I've done my time in searching for a solution so I wouldn't have to make a topic.
I understand this is from the Enoch theme for an old version of Cyanogenmod, but is there any other way to emulate such a dialer?
You could try installing the AOSP dialer..which is that one you have in the screenie minus the theme...

Thank you for this information!!! See, I wasn't even aware this was an AOSP dialer. I just tried to do my own research before asking, and the dots I connected were this dialer was something CM-related.
Okay not to sound like a total noob (even though I am), is it okay if I ask [in this thread], how would one go about installing this AOSP dialer? I'd prefer it over the one that came on the Evo.

If I can add to the question.
I am on CM6 and love it, in particular the AOSP dialer.
In case I want 4G, I may change roms.
Is it possible to have the AOSP dialer on a sense rom?

You can't get 4G on CM6? Or root? Or whichever it may be?
No 4g on CM6

OP, try out Dialer One from the market, you might like it. It's what I use, whether I'm running AOSP or Sense

I feel like I should know this but for some reason I don't think I do.
Anyhow, just flashed the latest build of CM and I miss the HTC Dialer, keyboard and Messaging app like crazy. Is it possible to just install them without the world ending? Also, does anyone have the apk's for these?
Thanks for any insight.

I searched for an answer to this (I only want the dialer) and found that no one has been successful at parting sense out. It is an all or none type deal. Sucks for me and sucks for you. If anyone knows a comparable dialer with that smart dial thing, give me a heads up. Thanks

Most of those apps need Sense to run. I tried installing the stock keyboard and just got force closes. I'm a big fan of Sense, but I'll make the sacrifice for CM. Hopefully when the full release comes out the devs will be able to incorporate some of those apps into CM.

Thanks for the info guys!
I think a Sense ROM will come using CMs work. CM just doesn't do it because it belongs to HTC. I think maybe s3vo is using CM stuff if not someone else will. I was trying to do it myself I'm just missing something. I'm fairly confident that I will figure it out eventually. Most likely though someone with more knowledge will output one long before I figure it out.

Hello, I am kind of new to all of this. I was wondering which custom ROMs have working 4G. It is hard to know because none of them say, except for like one.
Pretty much all sense roms

From what I've seen, any ROM that is based on Sense will have 4G working. Take a look at the device FAQs & stickies on this site and search as much as possible to get up to speed. This community moves quickly, but the variety of customization is staggering.
All roms based on Sense in the title will have working 4g. A hint that the rom has sense is that the title will usually give the latest version number (e.g. 3.70.xxx).
Any rom labeled AOSP or Gingerbread will NOT have 4g.
Cool, Thanks guys!! This forum is awesome.
Try Myn's Warm. It's very popular and what I am running with great sucess. Also if you don't like the black keyboard you can flash Riptide's color and clear theme to give you the old keyboard and some other cool effects. One being Batt percentage in the batt notification in the top.

I really love my AOSP roms, but to frank i hate the dialer. I love the dialer for sense. The feel is cleaner and the way it works is better. I like that i can type my contact name and the number comes up all in one screen.
Anyone know what im talking about:?
I believe there are dialers in the Market that emulate the Sense dialer.......
Try dialer one from the market

I'll agree to that, could use a face lift. But I like the way it functions better. I would love cm7 contact dialer more if it just worked the same way.

I do understand how you feel. I like to have my dialer display names as I type the first two or three characters. So, when I am on an aosp rom, I use GO CONTACTS EX, which includes an excellent Dialer that functions even better than the sense dialer.
I dl'ed this but have not tried it. Looks like something I would like if I ever went back to AOSP.

I actually posted the exact same thread months ago and while I appreciated all the feedback I to couldn't get one a really like and actually went back to a sense rom.
EDIT:
Just installed it with the new Team Blaze ICSmod7 Rom and this is definitely what I was looking for or at least as close as I can get it. Definitely switch to the dark theme IMHO but it works exactly like you need it too.
Hey all, this is one of my first post here, but I have been a user since the original Moto Droid. Before asking any questions I wanted to thank EVERYONE here who has helped me & the Mods for keeping this place so neat and clean!
Does anyone know of a way to get the pure android experience on this phone? (i.e. sms, dialer, icons, lock screen, etc) Like what comes on the new Galaxy Nexus!?
Please forgive me if this has been addressed already, I couldn't find anything with any solutions or definite answers.
Thanks!

Your answer is

Codename
Those are as stock they can get

Yup, or Codename, they are based off Android Open Source Project but have a few tweaks and tons of settings to play with.
Thanks for the fast replies! Clicked the button for you both.
I was hoping for a way to just strip it like you could senseUI on the Evo.

There used to be some bare roms, but now now with ICS going on, it seems gingerbread roms are going away.

1st question is, Are all the ROMs in the Original Android development forum AOSP ROMs?
My next question is, is there a TW ROM without the cartoony look, big buttons, and glowing bold fonts?
Thanks.

Download The People's Rom or Mother Of All Roms... Get Morphology (See thread in Themes section) Pick and choose how you would like it to be. if you don't like something.. Morph it again. Best thing to do. Just try a few out see what works.
Thanks for the response. I'll give "The People's Rom" a try.
Thanks.

No problem, we come here for the help.. and the cookies
in the OP of The People's Rom.. There's a Link for Morphology (current and working on that rom) grab that while your there. Theme it your way.. Enjoy it.. See the Team kernelizers thread in general section for Ktoonz tweaks for that kernel as well. (if you go that route)
I have "Tried" to write a wiki just for what you need. I went through and listed each individual rom and the base it was based off of as well as the Android OS it is from. from there you can go to each rom's page and see a screenshot (if the dev provided it) of each rom. I made this to save some time for new users.

check out qbking77 on youtube he tell u about some of the roms here and show u how to set them up.
I actually ended up with the MOAR ROM since it mentioned MB1. I installed that the other day and wasn't sure if I could use People ROM with it. But I am having an issue using MultiPic Live Wallpaper with this ROM. I have set 5 individual wall papers up but they don't stick.

I cant remember which rom it was i flashed a month or so ago but the dev took out the Live Wallpaper function in his debloating process. I am not sure if MOAR rom did this as well, its worth asking in his thread...

Hmm. Definatly post up in the MOAR thread. (MOAR and TPR are very similar so you can bounce between them with out too much issues) But def ask in there, I haven't personally used the multipic live wallpaper, so i couldn't tell ya. However, i'm sure it's something Team Noobz would help with.
I switched to People's this AM and the multi live wallpaper is working. I don't care for the built in dialer that doesn't return contacts correctly and switched to the Go Dialer. So far I am liking this ROM cleaner lines. I am wondering for the Google Voice integrated users if there is a way to remove Sprint's Voicemail. during the install I made sure not to install anything Sprint but it came through anyways.
