Looking for a new dialer

Anybody find another dialer that works with our phones? I'm not a huge fan of the stock dialer.

Go contacts

Dialer One is pretty bad ass.

Trying out Touchpal Dialer by Cootek... I used Dialer One on my Nexus One and got on well with it but want something with a crisper UI...

+1 for Touchpal dialer.

ended up dumping touchpal dialer... Watchdog was flagging it as hi CPU even when the phone was idle... trying out GoDialerEX right now but have a feeling i'll find myself back with DialerOne... stock dialer is seriously lacking! why cant i click a pic of a contact after typing a few letters of their name and get actiuons like SMS, call, Open contact etc. the way I can with every other dialer??
Same about TouchPal... liked the crispness of the UI

+1 on this one, most of the apps they have are very good and user friendly.

go dialer/contacts is the best out, a lot of options/themes and stable

yup tried all 3 mentioned here and liked go dialer/contacts the most clean with options and had the functions I liked.

does it works well with the DPI changed?

ex Dialer if you want that MiUI look.

Yup... I'm running GoDialer EX at 200 as opposed to the stock 240 density and all is well... The green "call" butten is a tiny bit stretched but its tons better than the way the stock dialer looks at 200

Anyone know of a dialer like the one is sense...it was great at connecting pictures to Facebook and still only showing my Google contacts

COURTESY OF ANDROID CENTRAL

It's a pretty decent launcher even though on touchwiz most widgets don't work.
Plus been in communication with the Dev since he first posted videos of his launcher, he said there would be public beta but just posted this paid beta.
He already said he would be looking into the widgets issue.
Let's see.

The bad thing about this launcher is the long list to scroll down if you have lots of apps.

Not really. Just click on the begiining letter of the app you want and it takes you there. The app is too minimal in features is my problem.
If the action bar and covers were added to something such as nova it would be the perfect launcher. IMO

I'm pretty well pleased with the Action launcher. Smooth and all the widgets I've installed worked well with no discrepencies at all. I think it is worth a try. I hope he follows with updates.

I really like the concept but features need to be added to make it a competitor.

It REALLY needs to expand the edges. If it would fix that I could see myself using it all the time. But as I use things like android pro widgets and wizz widgets, it just ruins it:
All that wasted space
However, I assume as he updates it more options will appear .

There's an option to reduce the margines.

Homework task list

hey guys, i wanna know if anyone knows a good to do list or task list or whatever you wanna call it, for keeping in track of doing my homework. i want an app thats simple and quick, and have a nice Holo themed UI(optional), and also just work well in jotting down my homework assingments. Cos i really dont like carrying a planner around and using it is really boring and jus wastes time, as I use my phone for everything I want to keep my homework assingments on my phone too, so everything is organised and in one place and it'll be easy and quick to check my homework on my phone.
thanks

I have been using anydo for a long time. I'm not sure if it fits your criteria but oy works well for me being a website developer. I love the widget. All I have to do is press a button and speak the task.. It also syncs with Google.

[Q]Car Home app/launcher

I've had my T-Mobile Galaxy Note 2 for 2 weeks now. It's stock NOT rooted. I was just looking through the /system/apps and couldn't find a Car Home application or something similar. Is this something that they left out with JB all together? Or is this just a Samsung or T-Mobile bright idea?
I also thought Samsung had Drive Link but the Note 2 doesn't have it.
Any info would be great...
In the mean time I installed Drive Link that I used on my previous device. If anyone is interested in it then I'll post a link.

So i wanted a proper driving app myself, didnt like what the samsung app store had to offer nir did i like what the playstore had, so i used ti separate launchers to get what i needed.
My main, daily phone launcher is nova prime. Set it up as a 7*5 grid and set it up for daily usage.
Used a Samsung tectile in my car mount to launch adw in landscape mode. One window has the weather, calendar and easy access to the phone boom, txts or whatever i needed. The next window is for Google maps, some set locations, or something i made the night before that i can just click and go. The other is the shorcut for the google places icon, which lets me search a coffee shop, or 'pizza' when i click it.
Ill take pics and show u, its the best way to have a proper car "dock" in my opinion

[Q] Android 4.4 KitKat Launcher?

Hello,
Has anyone tried the Android 4.4 KitKat Launcher released for Nexus 5 on their Note 8.0?
"To install the new launcher (Google Home), you’ll have to install 3 different apps – Google Play Services 4.0, Google Search, and the Google Home .apk. "
If so, is it working ok? how's the performance with the new launcher?
Thanks for your help :good:

I'm currently using the launcher as my daily driver, and aside from a couple bugs (app drawer seems crowded, and the keyboard pops up randomly upon returning to home), it runs rather well. I'm enjoying this psuedo-Kitkat UI!

Could you please post some screenshots? Thanks!

Sorry, I cant. When I try to upload screenshots, it says it has the incorrect JPEG file extension. Can you download the launcher?
Sent from my GT-N5110 using XDA Premium HD app

Wrong section..sorry..

The launcher runs fine. and looks ok,
I have gotten too used to touchwiz to like anything else,
however, this can also be used as an app i.e hitting back button does not close it.In that way it provides most of its functionality on demand and serves good for hands-free operation when needed, though s-voice did that kinda similar too.
App Drawer does not have any menus or settings so nothing much to write home about there, other than it's obviously different.
I have it set up minimally for reading stuff only (news and books) and here are screen shots.
