Hello XDA folks
One of the things that most people complain about in the Galaxy S2 probably is the dialer. The call recording, the noise cancellation, the auto-rotation etc. And there are a lot of threads that address each of these issues... separately. There isn't a single Phone.apk that has them all - no rotation, call recording, full screen picture, disabled noise cancellation, no increasing ring. The "perfect" dialer doesn't exist.
Why is that? Is it because some modifications are incompatible with each other? Or that no one had the idea of doing this?
I'd gladly do it and share it, but I've got the programming skills of an ape (maybe a bit worse). There are guides how to do it all, I've seen them. They just need to be followed
Any thoughts?

The Perfect Phone.apk was found! Thanks to grgsiocl for pointing out it's part of TurkbeyRom.
The Phone.apk is part of TurkbeyRom. Check it out here.
Features:
Basically everything
- Call recording
- No rotation
- No increasing ringtone
- Fullscreen contact picture
- Noise suppression off by default
- Search contacts by 2nd, 3rd name etc.
- Works on odexed ROMs (just delete/rename both Phone.apk and Phone.odex (and Contacts too, if you want the dialpad).
- Doesn't support multi-dpi... yet
Looks like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Go into flight mode. Then download and replace the 2 .apk files from here: Link Set permissions rw-r--r-- , reboot and it should work. Have a backup just in case.
You can only replace Phone.apk if you want to keep you old dialpad's theme
Thanks to:
turkbey for making all these tweaks into one super package
grgsiocl for pointing me to TurkbeyRom
LeoMar75 - the CWM script
Agree with you.....
Need a full screen caller id, with a sleek looking dialer intreface!!!
This is the dialer I currently have. Cant remember exactly where I got from but it was part of a theme.Thanks to the person who made this mod.All I did was mix n match bits from this theme and that theme.....
This is by far the best looking dialer I have come across for the galaxy s2!! Its not so "kiddish"!! Lol!!
it is available in turkbey ROM v 27. The dialer comes with t9 match tooo. If you want PM me, i will send you the contacts.apk file instead of downloading the entire ROM. Contacts.apk is based on KJ3

100% agree with you.
At the moment I am using exDialer-v35 (MIUI-like dialer)
Very happy with it. Beautiful graphics & sorting philosophy.
But not perfect. It has only the dialer, no backup, no 3G available.
But at the moment in my opinion it's the best..

I zipped the file and uploaded it to multiupload. Unzip and extract and copy to system/app using root explorer. If FC, then reboot

If you replaced it with Root Explorer or similar just reboot.
I just followed your advice... I still have no dialer or contact app.
It has the icons but ehen i press on them it force closes...
I am rooted and i have used root explorer...
Can someone help please or do i have to reflash a whole rom?

Try the CWM method (in the first post) and only flash the zip, not the whole ROM. If that doesn't work, PM me and we'll get it fixed
Just tried the cwm zip.... Still nothing...
I get force close.

I flashed the zip using CWM and I also get force close messages. I'm using the official rooted rom. Does anyone have the original dialer so at least I can revert without reflashing?

What version are you using?
I removed the CWM zip until I get a confirmation from someone that it actually works without FCs. For now just replace the files manually.
Does it support multi dpi?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Works quite well did the Root Explorer method without any FC issues. You who had problems, did you change permission and owner? Perhaps that is why you continue getting FCs.
Personally I use this for the fullscreen contact images. The contact and dialer is fugly but I use exDialer and its very pretty and I still get the fullscreen pictures
I'm on Cog i777 r2 (kj3) w/ speedmod k2-18t11.

*I made this before any of these new roms came out and as such it was meant for and has been tested on only the stock Gingerbread rom that comes with the phone. I doubt it will be compatible with the new roms.*
So, thanks to the AMAZING people who brought us Clockwork Mod for the Nitro (I owe ALL of you a beer!), I could now make a backup of my ROM and take the risk of messing with what I needed to to make the notification bar transparent!
Basically, I needed to deodex SystemUI.apk in order to make the necessary changes to the smali file. All of this is gibberish to me, but I just googled what I needed to =).
To deodex, I followed this guide:
How to deodex a ROM
(I only deodexed SystemUI.apk)
And to make the necessary modifications for transparency, I followed portions of this guide:
[MOD] [Guide How To] SystemUI.apk for Transparent notifications background (Thanks AdamTt!)
(I didn't end up using step 2 of that because it didn't look very good on the Nitro)
So now the status bar and pull down background look like this!
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So I've bundled the necessary files so it's easier to make yours transparent too! Keep in mind, I am NOT a dev and was not sure how android would handle a single deodexed apk in an otherwise odexed rom (hence waiting for Clockwork Mod), so this may not be the slickest way (programming wise), but so far it's been working great for me. Haven't noticed any performance issues of any kind. Regardless, try at your own risk! =)
Preparation!
1.) Backup your phone with Clockwork Mod! (Yay!)
2.) Using root explorer, back up a copy of your SystemUI.apk and SystemUI.odex (both in /system/app)
Make it transparent! (Again, everything done with Root Explorer!)
1.) Download and extract attached .zip to computer
2.) Copy your SystemUI.apk to your desktop and right click, 7zip, open archive
3.) Drag and drop into open archive (and let overwrite if it wants to):
-"classes.dex" into root folder of open archive of SystemUI.apk
-"status_bar_tracking.xml" into SystemUI.apk\res\layout
-"shade_bg.png" into SystemUI.apk\res\drawable-hdpi (hdpi, NOT xhdpi)
-"statusbar_background.9.png" into SystemUI.apk\res\drawable-xhdpi (xhdpi!)
4.) Copy this new SystemUI.apk onto your SD card
5.) Move to phone's \system\ folder
6.) CHANGE PERMISSIONS with root explorer (Owner: read write, group: read, others: read)
7.) Move into phone's \system\app folder and let overwrite other SystemUI.apk
8.) DELETE SystemUI.odex from \system\app folder on your phone!
9.) Restart your phone!
*The typical limitations of the transparent notification bar on gingerbread are present here. If you use a launcher other than stock or ADW, the bar will only be transparent if you use a live wallpaper. If you use ADW, you have to uncheck the "hack" setting, and then it'll be transparent regardless of wallpaper.*
**You don't have to use the PNG's I provided. You can put whatever you want there and have as little or as much transparency as you want!**
itis, thank you for the nice mod will look great with great wallpapers. Speaking of wallpapers, that one you got looks hella awesome. Mind sharing it? post it over at the wallpaper thread please so those who are interested in it can obtain it too Thanks again.
looks schnazzy!
I'm going to wait & do thismod when I change backgrounds, for the obvious reasons
Scott0,
What weather widget is that?
That looks good, however in my past experience on Atrix 4G such transparency could be problem when your have text on screen and text in the notification bar, very hard to read.
Bat mod
What is a simple way I can get the bat % only?
Thanks.

Well, it's transparent, so if there's a light background behind it, white text might be harder to read, but I tried to make the transparency somewhat dim so white text is still pretty clear, even on top of a white background like here:

i will try!thank you!
Has anyone had their camera fail after doing this mod? I'm not 100% sure that this was the cause but that's the last thing I did before I noticed that the camera didn't work. It did work before I did this.
Sent from my LG-P930 using XDA App
Hmm, that's kinda random. I don't have any camera issues. Can you restore and see if it fixes the cam?
I did a factory reset and put the original files back. No camera I flashed a new rom and the camera worked. I ended up bricking it beyond repair and got a replacement.
Sent from my LG-P930 using XDA App
That's weird restoring the files didn't fix it. I wonder if there was something else causing the cam issues then. That sucks you had to get it replaced! Do you know what happened to brick it?
I bricked it by not following the directions for flashing the kernelpanic rom. I did a factory restore in cwm and poof I had a nice HD brick. Good thing att labeled it as doa and gave me a new one.

Hello itiskonrad. I really do not understand how to do this. I lack experience. Can you please make my SystemUI the same as yours? I am just asking. I hope you can help me.
Hey there!
Since this is my first post on this board, I hope it's not too misplaced. :>
I decided to post in this thread as it seems to be the most up-to-date.
I tried several other guides on xda and other boards, but for my device it won't work. I even tried to find the necessary files on my own, but with no luck.
I'm using MIUI 2.7.13 (Android 4.0.4), ArcKnight Kernel 2.6.32.9 and Apex Launcher on SE Arc S/LT18i. I've installed the Suave Theme v4 1.5, of course with Apex merely the notification icons (ribbons) are visible from that theme.
Now, cutting a long story short, when using MIUI Launcher the notification bar is completely transparent, only the ribbons are visible (that's my goal), when switching to Apex the bar becomes black again - except on the unlock pattern screen.
I've read that the notification settings do not depend on the launcher, but changing background images in SystemUI.apk has no effect.
I hope I made myself clear and that somebody has any direction to point or some solution.
Thanks for reading my crappy english. :>
Regards

MODDED MMS.APK FOR SGS III
This Mms.apk is the same as the stock one, except for the mods I applied. It is the most close to the stock Mms.apk, just with some better features! ;D
Downloads: If you're looking for the download links, I took them from the attachments because they were not specifically for the S3. If you still want this mod, visit my thread in I9000 forums, here is the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1667615. You can install it fine! It will work! Some people are reporting a multiple thread bug, but you can give it a go! It won't brick your phone! LOL you can backup your mms.apk, install my mod (made for I9000) if it works, you keep that freakin cool mod I made, if it doesn't work, you can always go back to your previous mms.apk. AS SIMPLE AS THAT!
FIX MULTIPLE THREADS FOR SAME CONTACT: try to add your country code to the contact in the phonebook. For example, in Portugal the country code prefix is 00 351.. so if my mobile number was 961 234 567, you would have to edit the phonebook and make it 00 351 961 234 567. Try and it tell me the results. Ty.
Features:
- Inverted (optional): black background instead of white (check attachments to download the apk you want: inverted or non-inverted);
- No MMS conversion: you can type very long messages and it won't automatically convert it to a MMS;
- Unlimited Recipients list: you can now send your message to more than 20 people at the same time;
- Original Time Stamps: this makes original time stamps setting actually work: it shows the exact sent time of received messages, not the moment when you actually receive it on your phone;
- New Line Option: have you noticed that stupid "" key next to the space bar? Yeah, where the "new line" key should be? Google did it! But this mod changes that "" key to "new line" key as it should always be.
- 160 characters capacity: 160 characters capacity per SMS for other languages other than English, and not 60-70. No more extra costs for longer messages!
- Bigger Writing Window: if you notice, when you are typing long sms, you can only see 3 sentences of what you've typed. I've changed that value to 5 sentences and it feels much better. Now you can see 5 sentences of the message you're typing.
- Emoji Support: a set of 471 nice emoticons.
- Changed default android heart smiley: do you know that green smiley when you type '<3'? Removed that green android and replaced it with a neat heart (see screenshots).
- Speech Bubbles: some nice balloons around the texts. Two styles: touchwiz bubbles (tw-bubbles) or iphone bubbles (iphone-bubbles).
- With/without Avatars: you can choose the version with avatar pics or the one without them.
- With/without SGS III icons: the versions with this tag have the messaging app icon of the SGS III, as well as the smileys.
- Pop-up notification: Enable this in settings. A pop-up will show up when a new message is received. You can reply right away.
How to install:
Using a file explorer:
If you've downloaded the Mms_xxxx.apk:
1. Use something like root explorer
2. Go to /system/app and mount R/W
3. Rename current 'SecMms.apk' to 'SecMms.apk.bak' (this is a backup)
4. Copy the 'Mms_modded.apk' you downloaded to /system/app
5. Rename 'Mms_modded.apk' to 'SecMms.apk'
6. Change 'Mms.apk' permissions to: rw-r--r--
7. Mount R/O
8. Reboot your phone.
Changelog:
[09-08-2012] - Starting SGS III project:
- First modded versions.
Future features:
- Select multiple recipients from contacts list: I really miss this tiny feature from GB. Instead of typing contacts name one by one, you could go to your contact list and select multiple contacts for mass sms. If someone has the time and knowledge to help me do this, I would be very thankfull.
Screenshots:
This is the Mms_inverted_tw-bubbles_avatars_v1.4.apk:

this isn't a problem of my app but from ics itself. Sometimes when you don't receive notifications, if you go to your homescreen, long press the home button, you get to the task manager. wipe the messaging app to end it and now you should get sms notifications.

A little update from my side. It´s also working with CM10.2. It can be used from CM9 up to CM10.2
Well, this App is actually not my work, though I know how to apply the changes. It´s just I stumbled across this App while modifing the stock SMS/MMS app for my needs. This app has all the modifications already done. So this saved me some time to do the mods myself.
The app was modded by the member called Difusal.
The basic features are:
- Inverted: black background instead of white (looks like the CM9 phone app);
- No MMS conversion: you can type very long messages and it won't automatically convert it to a MMS;
- Unlimited Recipients list: you can now send your message to more than 20 people at the same time;
- Original Time Stamps: this makes original time stamps setting actually work: it shows the exact sent time of received messages, not the moment when you actually receive it on your phone.
- New Line Option: have you noticed that stupid "" key next to the space bar? Yeah, where the "new line" key should be? Google did it! But this mod changes that "" key to "new line" key as it should always be.

- Bigger Writing Window: if you notice, when you are typing long sms, you can only see 3 sentences of what you've typed. I've changed that value to 5 sentences and it feels much better. Now you can see 5 sentences of the message you're typing. (so also like in the Samsung SMS/MMS app)
- Emoji Support: a set of 471 nice emoticons.
- Changed default android heart smiley: do you know that green smiley when you type '<3'? Removed that green android and replaced it with a neat heart (see screenshots).
- Speech Bubbles: some nice balloons around the texts. (Touchwiz Style bubbles).

Just as a note to prevent some confusion. The screenshoots are made on a different device with a different ROM, so the colors do not match exactly the colors that will be displayed on Arcos CM9. That´s because the MMS.apk is framework dependent and the device is also using a different hardware with different drivers. So the green will appear more yellowish on our SGW
Furthermore Difusal might have changed them at any time after doing these screenshoots. I didn´t check this because I like it the way it is.
As always flash via CWM and enjoy.

You should be able to use this app on any CM9 based rom for the SGW. I only tested it on Arcos CM9.

Can´t tell. Maybe it´s country related and your country or better say language isn´t supported. This modification even wasn´t on my list of modifications I wanted to do as I even wasn´t aware this is different in other countries. For me even the stock app goes to second sms after 160 characters.
It could be also the app is still using the settings from the stock MMS.apk and so the limitiation is still active. In that case deleting the apps data and cache should fix it.

Sure, it´s based on Arcos CM9 but the modifications there might cause it. The MMS.apk is for example framework depandent. Any changes there might cause the colors to be displayed different.

You can extract it from the ROM flash file, copy it to system, set permissions and then move it to system/app by overwriting the current one. Then reboot and it will be back to the one that is used in this rom.

Sorry for the late reply, but am working a lot these days.
May I ask if you already tried the app with CM10 and if so what the result was? In general I would say it should work with CM10 too, but didn´t try it.
So I need a bit more feedback about it´s working or not in CM10.

its on the todo list... will do it asap. as of now its crashing @240dpi right?
yep crashes outright and nasty it really don't like 240dpi I will have screen shots up shortly.
OK 240dpi is the way the Note II should have been shipped. you folks running Note II's no your not. your not running a Note II till you goto 240dpi and see the amazing difference in makes (unless you have soso eyesight then you might want to stay at 320 dpi but com eon 5.5" display !!!)
but alas some of the SAMSUNG specific phone apps are designed FOR this phone so there is no reason for samsung to make them "scalable" (lazy bums
so Bala_Gamer figured out how to "alter" them to display properly at 240dpi (which makes them prettier more usable and in some cases usable at all since some apps crash outright) these mods "fix" them so they work right and look right.
I am LOVING it.
Ok Screenies of everything but the dialer (I seem to have misplaced my dialer since installing exdialer .... using the S3 Dialer pics for now (its identical)

Yup, like nerys71 said, it just FCs over and over again. It would be a huge win if you got that working -- it's the only way to use handwriting input.
Ok I do but have cwm.. any chance of getting one that works with twrp?

Personally I haven't tried it with TWRP, but I have heard there is some workaround /method to flash vrtheme based zips via TWRP.

I'd do it but how do I get it to show the folders? I'm using 7-zip and it's not showing the folders inside
winrar opens the zip fine. there are two root folders. META-INF and mode
there is a zipalign file in the mode folder
I have ZERO skill at this so DO NOT apply this without a backup I may have done it wrong and may screw your phone !!! remember its a $700 phone
I unzipped it replaced the zipalign file and then zipped it back up again. I am assuming its that simple? (bala?)
try it and see what happens in twrp
All you have to do is replace the zipalign. I have been doing this to flash gsm note 2 mods constantly.

sweet - now I can go back to twrp the new touch CWM is "ok" but still not as nice as TWRP for easy to use UI
now does modding this for twrp "break" it for CWM or any others ?
AOSP KitKat ROMs have a simple phone dialer without Google's Caller ID.

Google Caller ID lets you:
1. search for places, businesses within the dialer
2. Display caller id of businesses when they call you
3. [In 2014] Display caller id of any Google user.
Essentially, a TrueCaller alternative
More about Google caller id https://plus.google.com/photos/+android/albums/5942570061497141729
How to Get it.
Pre-requisites:
- Rooted Kitkat AOSP ROM
How to:
1. Copy GoogleDialer.apk into /system/priv-app
2. Change permissions to RW-R--R--
3. Don't delete any other files like Dialer.apk Teleservice.apk, they are required
4. and reboot
I did follow by instruction on my Note 1 Omni 4.4. After finish call then no button to hangup!!!! Any idea?

What are you running?
The trick is to leave the dialer as is and add Google dialer in addition. You'll have 2 phones after reboot.
The new dialer will allow you to search businesses.
Didn't check the incoming call functionality though.
BTW, the new dialer is missing the nice statistics tab...

Omni ROM uses a custom pop-out call-receive screen. It won't work with this ROM. You need vanilla AOSP dialer and phone app which is ideally found in CM 11

It will be interesting to see someone can get this to work on the sense 4.4 that should be here any day... Caller ID should be a given with todays tech, it should be standard, not a "feature"
I typed in a name of a local business and it doesn't search for near by places. Any one else getting this?
Yeah same here no search
So after noticing that the Sense Kit Kat dialer does not have the new search feature i had a bit of a play around. I took the dialer.apk, contacts.apk and contacts odex.apk from GP rom and pushed them to priv-app with the correct permissions and they seem to work. The only thing i noticed is the dialer doesn't have the all contacts button on the main screen. You have to open the menu for all contacts. I love the new search feature and i hope htc add it to the stock dialer with a future update.

How are incoming calls handled having 2 dialers? Or did you disable the stock one?

Calls are still handled with the stock dialer. I played further by pushing the contacts provider.apk and contacts provider odexed.apk from GE rom. This made the GE dialer fully functional but caused Sense dialer to fc constantly even after i froze it. Im sure a good app porter can make this work. For now i will just keep the GE dialer and use it as my yellow pages.

Nice work, the only thing that would make me go back to Google edition from kitkat / Sense 5.5 is the google edition dialer. Are you able to provide the files and instructions on how to do this?

Can you use the GE dialer to call out then use the sense dialer for incoming calls until someone manages to fully port it?
Thanks
Edit: nevermind, realized I basically reposted what the previous person put in. Sorry.
