[Q] HTC EVO Dialer

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

The first would be something you have to take up with the dev for that game and the second might be doable. Just have to ask the right person. You should add [REQ] to the title of the thread.

ok i dont know how ill contact the dev for the game but i guess ill look around like they say Google is your friend.
My bad on forgetting to add the [REQ] on the title will do right now.

If you're talking about the bubble style text messaging, you could install ChompSMS or Handcent from the market. Both have similar themes

Yes the bubbly style is what im looking for without having to install a replacement app. Like using the installed one. ChompSMS/Handcent are replacement apps and they have some good things about them and some bad things about them. I just prefer the stock one but modified a bit.

AOSP Dialer Like Sense

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

Am i the only person that prefers the aosp dialer and contacts. I think the sense one is ugly looking.

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.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1329172
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.

[REQ] Modified CM9 phone.apk for custom DPI

Hi there, I'm kind of new. I've recently been modifying the dpi on our device and I can't tell you how amazing it makes the screen look. However, on cm9, any dpi lower than 190 causes the phone to crash so calls cannot be made or received.
Other phones have mods for this, however, flashing these causes all sorts of issues with service all together. Is anyone up for making one? I'm on my phone right now, but if you need a link I can post when I get home. Hope this is in the right section, thanks.

cm9 seems to have problems with alot more than just the phone with anything under 182. So if you're planning on going lower than that you might be in for a headache. I agree with stuff looking better at lower densities tho. I have my cleangb rom set at 160. Aokp seems to go to lower densities without as much difficulty, and has a lot more options than cm9, is very stable, and better on battery. In fact, LCD density is an option in rom control in system settings on aokp, so there's no need for a 3rd party app to change it. Maybe you should try flashing that and playing with it for a while, see what you think. Its basically cm9, just, better. IMHO at least. There's a thread for it in the dev section if you're interested. Peace nd happy flashing.

Thank you, I'll definitely give that a try as soon as possible. Do you know if aokp can spoof the dpi so the market is still usable?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk 2 Beta-2

Not sure what you mean exactly, but I've never had a problem using the market on aokp, and my LCD density is set to 175. What program are you using to change the density? Sometimes the actual app can cause the problem. If your rom doesn't have the option to change density then the best two apps you can use, in my experience, are rom toolbox and blade buddy. Both have free versions that allow you to change a lot of settings. And, just to make sure we're on the same page, when you say dpi, you are reffering to LCD density, correct? Meaning the lower the number the bigger your screen appears (icons and text look smaller). Whereas the default value is 240. Just making sure we're talking about the same thing.

186 is my sweet spot
Sent from my MIUI V4 Epic 4G via Tapatalk 2 beta 4

Are you having any issues with the phone or market apps? Which rom are you using? I think different densities look better with different roms. For instance, IMO, miui doesn't look good with anything under 220, but on the other hand, I have cleangb set to 160 and it looks great. Although I had to use spare parts + to make the text bigger, and the stock phone app won't change density, so when you open it, the dialer only takes up a small portion of the screen. I'm looking for a decent custom dialer to fix that. Any suggestions?

[DIALER]{Multy DPI}[deodexed/odexed]{ICS room}[base on stock room](REQ)

I will like first than any other thing to apologize if you are reading this and you thought finaly a multi DPI stock dialer aviable, sorry i dont have it. I needed a title to guet some readers to see it. Second for my really bad speling.
This post has been created whit one goal:
¡¡¡¡¡MULTI DPI STOCK SAMSUNG DIALER!!!!!
I have scouted xda forums for weeks (months now) to guet one, but this mod just... DOES NOT EXIST.
I have seen this request on replies, new threats, but no one single developer has responded to this call.
If YOU reader support this threat, i will sent a pm to your inbox once i guet one.
Now I will place here what WE are asking for:
1. Multi DPI samsung stock dialer
Yes we know there is an stock ics dialer and contacts, some android market apps whit multi dpi aviable free or paid, but we dont want that.
Well that is the reason of this post, but I have seen what people belive, is the PERFECT dialer:
1. Multi DPI samsung stock dialer
2. AutoRotate disiable
3. Full screem picture
4. ICS compatible
5. Record call aviable
And going a little bit more... demanding. If a developer decides to guet on this heroe path, on the SAMSUNG STOCK contacts app, the ability to unite more than five accounts to one contact.
Hopefully a great xda dev will become the heroe and provide the apk that many are looking.

I am so with you on this one, for months now I am looking for it, so do wish that one of the Devs will look into this for us all.
Come on guys PLEASE !!!!!!!!

Pls i need the Multi DPI Dialer for my VK Rom cause my phones Dpi is 182 but the integrated Dialer is to small and the number where cut
pls help

im waiting too +1

It doesn't work well for example in a call if you want to switch to your keypad it will switch to original Phone.apk, plus it looks ugly, we want true multi dpi!!!

Pls check Classic Zeta rom phone apk. I use it in combination with ExDialer and it works well on 182 dpi in my purelook rom. Hope this helps.

issue with market due to non-standard dpi?
