[Q] want to change slide down to answer - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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

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.

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.

[REQ] Lockscreen wallpaper option

Sir toast, if you feel this is in the wrong place, please do move it. I debated here or themes, however it seemed more like a dev task to me and all the QnA threads about this just seem to trickle off..
So here goes. As you may have noticed, we lost lockscreen wallpaper selection when we upgraded to the evo.
I'm asking if any dev out there if it would be possible to pull that option from say the hero and implement it into the evo.
Anybody know if it would be possible or even if there is a high enough demand for it that someone might want to try?
My favorite way of accomplishing this is to use WidgetLocker from the Marketplace. A terrific app.

I've used it, its good, but I enjoy the htc lock as well as not running an app as my lockscreen. I would be more be interested in implementing this without an app.
I would be very interested in this actually. I thought it an odd choice to take away that functionality in the first place.

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

Yes this dialer is awesome. Is there somehow to flash it so its my default.

Guys check it out.won't be diaspponted

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.

Power widgets instead of quick settings Stock Sense OTA?

I prefer the power widgets at the top of the pull down like in ASOP/CM7. Is it possible to have that instead of quick settings in the new OTA sense ROMs?
Sent from my Incredible using XDA App
I'm sure its possible. I have always preferred the power control widgets over the quick settings. It looks so much better.

I seem to remember Skyraider had them with Sense. Almost like he was just using the stock android pull down... No sense bar at the bottom, etc. I'm surprised no one has looked into getting this working for the new ota. I guess I'll have to take myself to school!

Touch wiz

If you're gonna be making a hundred phone calls a day and multitasking between notes emails contacts etc, is there anything better than touch wiz to help you work more efficiently?

Only thing that stands out to me from touch wiz is the contact sync function. This is similar to HTC sense and integrates all your contacts from various social networks such as twitter and fb. It also syncs the contact pic from fb.
This function doesn't make me miss HTC sense at all.
Other than that I hate stock touch wiz look. It has a iphone + childish look to it. And bloat got me ditching stock rom all together lol.
Right now I'm using paradox rom which is fully themed so even tw looks good!
On the other hand are you planning on flashing other roms or just keeping stock w launcher replacements?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using XDA
Right more I'm using Ms paradox love and am perfect with it. I like how the phone shortcut leads you to the active call rather than using aosp and getting a second call tab. I'm using the tw launcher from beastmod. Besides the phone button I really don't notice much with the differences between touchwiz and aosp other than the call log dialing features. Aosp has a much better call log with the slide to call or send message feature.

Umm.. that features in tw aswell.. (slide to call/text)
And clickin phone in a call always snaps back to call for me, no TW
Your right I just found out, good thinking.

Is anyone else anti aosp besides me?

Leave it at this, the shortcut to the active call gets the cake to me. Why waste so much energy to get to the active call? Multitasking is generous with Touchwiz.

yeah.... just you
Touchwiz is worst thing on ICS. Somebody said that before and i got it right when i tried myself

In any case then, I'll ask had anyone found a launcher which takes you to the active call? I miss the end button.

not sure what you mean, not even from your first post...
like when someone calls you, does the call screen pop up?
well if that's your question.. mine does. I think it worked for TW ICS, but now i'm using APEX and it's working for sure on that launcher.

Just you. AOSP is so much better than Touch****
Third Samsung device but I hate Touchwiz
I'm sorry if my English doesn't work for you. The thing I'm trying to say is, when your multitasking and want to switch between apps and phone Call multiple times between during a phone call, Touchwiz will take you to the active call and make it so much easier when you press the phone on the launcher, you know the littler icon next to the app tray button than takes you to your active call unlike aosp which taker you to a dialer only, and not an active call.

Touchwiz is nice. The launcher not so much but everything else works.
To do what you want on AOSP you have to pull down on the notification bar and pres on the phone call notification. That's what I do on Touchwiz too.
i actually love gingerbread touchwiz way better than stock GB also love the dock bar cuz thats what i use alot. but after trying the 4.0 kang version damn i fell in love. GB TW has alot of cool features like turn ur phone over to mute it (perfect for when u dont wanna get up in teh morning), slide to call or message someone, browser leaves u in the exact same spot, dialer knows numbers when u type the names, i honestly dont know why ppl hate it sooo much. GB TW> stock GB but stock ICS> ICS TW. i honestly am gonna miss some features especially the turn over to mute cuz i REALLY REALLY!! hate trying to fiddle with it when ur half asleep trying to turn off the damn alarm when i could just turn it over and BAM it stops
I'm never gonna like aosp, if it wasn't for touchwiz would I be buying Samsung?

I do this also, I just use the notification bar, that's what I call multi tasking.. Not going to the home page and then clicking the call icon. I believe you can also hold home for the recent tasks. I do that a lot for multi tasking

Heck, that skyrocket ICS that was released a while ago by eugune or something looked better and felt better than the leaked ICS. **** TOUCHWIZ. Altho i prefer touchwiz on Gingerbread as it looks better than aosp, more suited for a larger screen.
