Hmm, I don't believe I have ever seen a dialer that goes to landscape. Not to my knowledge, I have never seen anything like that. There's a lot of different dialers out there, but none of which rotate to landscape. That's not to say that it can't be done, just that I've never seen one.

I too haven't seen a landscape dialer.
Edit: after going a lightning faster search, I think dialer one may be your best bet.

Yep, Dialer One works in landscape mode & on CM7. I use it on CM7, I like it better than the default.

I will try.thank you buddy

Try to call someone, and then it should ask you to select a default,t hen pick dialer one.

The actual phone call part is done through the stock dialer, so you can't set the default for calling. However, at the end of a phone call it sends you to the call log. Then you get a popup asking if you want to use Dialer One or Contacts/Dialer... check the check box & choose Dialer One. Anytime another app calls the dialer, contacts, or call log you may have to set the default again - but only once per individual circumstance.

Replace stock messaging with handcent...?

Is this possible..?
Sent from my phone that's better than yours.
Just turn off the notifications for the stock messaging app. You'll be good to go.
All I did was to go into the setting of the stock and unchecked everything.

When it asks you to choose between the two, look in bottom left , you can check a box to use one or the other as default.

pm me and ill give you better instructions.
Chomp sms is where it's at, the only reason why I didn't stock with handcent is because every time my phone died and when I turn it back on it sends everyone the entire conversation I had with them which is insanely annoying. No one wants to get 75 texts in a row lol.
Chompsms lets you put a background for when you txt, lets you use landscape and portrait mode(lets you use a different pic for both). Also lets you change the color of the text from both sides(also the bubbles in which they are typed in). Also when you get a txt it pops up on the screen and you can just reply right away instead of going to the app. One last thing, if you hold down the search button it lets you make a message without going to the app.

I thought handcent let you do the exact same thing?
They both are insanley close, you just gotta play with them and see what's better for you. And you want to stock the app right?

Voicemail Issues? (Incubus)

Has anybody here come across any voicemail issues while using their Incfredible? Whenever I use the stock sense 2.0 ROM and I have a new voicemail, I call my voicemail, try to type in my password, however it doesn't seem to acknowledge that I am even doing anything. I'll type in my password, press pound, and it'll ask me to enter my password. I tried resetting the password, still no issues. I can't clear the notification so its there forever pretty much. I have like 8 new voicemails right now. I know these ROMs are popular, I am curious as to how nobody else has come across this problem, as I couldn't find a thread anywhere.
Thank you for your time.
Set audible tones to short or long in call settings menu (I think, I don't use sense roms..)

[Q] want to change slide down to answer

So I have a problem I hope somebody will be able to answer for me. the slide down to answer on sense roms absolutely drives me crazy. The main reason i use sense roms is for the dialer. Have been using CM7 for quite a long while but hate the dialer with it. Tried MyDialer and it is ok but not really feeling that one either. Is there anyway to change the pull down to either tabs or rotary like in CM7?
Look through the different ROMs... Some of them have alternate lockscreens... Check out incredibly re-engineered 2.4
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
I'll take a look at it although I have a feeling its not going to have what i'm looking for. The regular lock screen I don't have a problem with but the phone call answer screen out what I haven't been able to change.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
if you want to stay on CM, you could always try go contacts, which is as close to a sense dialer as possible
That will work. Thank you.

Try EasyAnswer. It offers you two buttons to choose from.

Is there a way to disable texts from showing up in the call log?

I find it really annoying that texts show up in the call log... anyway to disable that? I'm on Starburst 1.7

In the phone log click the menu button and click view by. Then choose all voice calls.

That works but it doesn't stick. I think it resets after a reboot. At least for me it hasn't stuck.

So I'm assuming there is no permanent workaround yet?

Probably not. The phone is still very new and still working out bug in every corner. So it will take some time.

There is a "logsprovider.apk" over on Bonsai that works, I use it fwiw. Just search the quoted term.

I've been using go dialer since I changed my lcd density to 200 which made the default dialer look funny. I like go dialer so far
This must be with the default messaging. I don't see the texts in mine, maybe cause I have Handcent installed.

Best Messaging App

So the biggest thing I'd like in a messaging app is a back button on the top left corner. I know it's an iphone thing but I'm really used to it. I was wondering if anyone knew of anything like this? Go SMS has been good but that's the only feature I miss.

I find that the hardware back button is easier to reach.

I haven't needed to use it on this phone or my last, but you might try handcent and see if that has the functionality you're looking for.

There's more to it than that though. The back button takes you back to the last thing you were on (or at least it is suppose to) while the top left button takes you back to the first page of the app. This is a useful feature because i often press home right after finishing a text then when I reopen the app to text someone else, it takes me back to the last person I texted. Then I have to close the app and open it again.
I think the Jellybean messaging app has this.
That is exactly correct! Thanks. I found it. However, the last update broke MMS..

Handcent has the back button in the upper left corner.

I'm not rooted yet. But I am using apex launcher. Neither hand cent nor the jelly bean app show up in my notification bar

Did you look through the settings? Sometimes you have to activate it. Also deactivate the notification of the stock app.
Yeah i did. Go sms works for m

Didn't want to repost. So I'll bump this and ask.
What's the best Messaging app you're using? I'm using handcent, but I want that's fast and fluid as well (sorta like the iphone messaging app.. the only thing it does right haha)
I'm not a fan of the animations on the Stock app or Handcent. I did like 4.1 Messaging app but the MMS bug was too much
Try GO SMS PRO. Once you have it installed, go into settings>basic>running mode>lite
Also, with Go SMS Pro, you can send group text (like iPhone does it). Only thing I hate is that when getting group texts, phone becomes very slow to a frustrating point if multiple people from group text is replying at once.
Go SMS was very bloaty for me. But I'll try that. Thanks!
