HTC Zoe Clip not possible to save local...

Hello,
sorry about my bad English, last shool lesson is a long time ago
Since about 4 weeks i can't longer save my HTC Zoe Clips on the phone.
Everytime i press the button "Finish" a new Windows open to Upload my Clip on HTC Zoe.
I deinstalled the App but then it would like everytime to send me to the playstore to reinstall it.
I had today contact with the HTC support and they say me!!! It's not a problem from HTC directly it's a problem with my Provider!!! :silly::laugh:
They say the Provider could erase this Function to save the clip local *LOL!!!*
I have three friends with two HTC One M8 and one with an M7 and all with the M8 have the same Problem with different Providers one of them with a free HTC M8.
Only the one with the M7 has no problem and his Zoe is like ever :crying:
I think that is ****! that is cheating!
Uninstall the new version. I am still using the old version; it works great.

Mhhh if i uninstall Zoe it only would like to install the newest Version from the Store...
Where can i get the "older" Version?
When you uninstall HTC gallery; you should get a message something like this app will revert back to an old version.
My HTC gallery version is 8.50.814092. Install this version and make sure to disable playstore auto update apps. Change the settings to do not auto update my apps.

[Q] Google Dialer for HTC One M9

So I'm coming to the HTC One M9 from a Nexus 4 on TMO. The Nexus 4 had the Google Dialer and I liked it tremendously more than whats on the HTC One M9, especially with Google Caller ID. I don't want to do a customer ROM however because losing wifi calling is not an option.
Has anyone gotten Google Dialer with Google Caller ID to work on our phone? Any other app store options?
Are you going to root? There is a thread with gpe contacts and dialer in XDA but it is a flashable .zip that replaces the stock HTC dialer. It does work as I use it on my m8.

There is also now a thread as of today with a zip that can be flashed in combination with a custom rom to give you WiFi calling.

Stock Google Dialer - no ringing, no loudspeaker

Hi,
Today I've received my HTC 10 and I'm trying to get the 'nearest Nexus experience'. There was no problems with either Now Launcher or Keyboad, but I have some problems with Dialer. The app itself was installed from Play Store (com.google.android.dialer), so no sideloading was necessary. The installed version is 2.05.07_rc4. I've given it all permissions (with settings ones), change default dialer and everything is working except ringing and loudspeaker. I can dial a number, answer a call, talk. There are all notifications.
I've tried sideloading different versions form apkmirror. 2.3.17 fails to install (no necessary libraries), 3.00.04_rc4 installs but crashes. I've also sideloaded Contacts - no problems there.
Can someone had similar problems? Maybe on different phone?
Thanks for any help.
Karol
That's weird. When I go to the Play Store, it tells me the Google Dialer is not compatible with my HTC 10. Also, the version on the store is 2.3.17, how come you have 2.05.07_rc4 ? Which country are you in? (I'm in the US) Why is it a release candidate (I assume the rc part at the end is for that)?
I've tried installing from apkmirror (2.3.17 and 3.00.04_rc4) and the same happens to me; first one doesn't want to install and the latter crashes.
I'm trying as well to make my 10 resemble my former Nexus, so if anyone knows how to make this Google Dialer app work, please, post it here.
Thanks!
I had the same problem. Not sure which version. I ended up going back to the horrible HTC dialler
I also had a problem with the alarm in the google clock app. The alarm tone I selected always seemed to be the default rather than the custom selected one.
I don't know what HTC have done with their firmware. It's been a pretty good experience other than those issues though.

Give the google clock permissions for disk access and it will then be able to use custom "ringtones". This is a common Marshmallow issue. Try giving the google dialer full permissions and see if that fixes your other issues.

I'm in Poland. And yes, Google Play installs 2.05.07_rc4. It's also available from ApkMirror (apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-phone/google-phone-2-05-07_rc4-release/google-phone-2-05-07_rc4-android-apk-download)
As for the phone - I gave up. It's already sold. All reviewers almost promised the Nexus experience, but it's far from it. It's not like Moto phones, where they take stock Android and add some of their features. It's all rebuild. The quick settings look similar yet different. The same thing is with the settings. Some (Many?) dialogs have Sense not Material look. The typography is wrong. It still is Roboto, but the weights are used differently.
Stock Android is beautiful. Everything is in place, everything works as expected. Sense (8 is it?) look like HTC tried to rebuild/upgrade previous version to look Material. They failed. I'm back to my old Nexus 5.
Ps. One hint about the dialer. When you place a call, two icons appear in the notification bar. One from Google Dialer, one from HTC Dialer. So the built in one is still active, also you can't disable the Contacts/Dialer app. Maybe it's HTC bug and should by reported?
Karol
Sounds weird.
I couldn't install the contacts or dialer through google play, but sideloaded the apks and no problem once I gave the permissions.
The phone rings and loudspeaker is functional.
No issues or bugs so far.
Edit: The HTC dialer does show in the notification, and in the default app I selected the google dialer.
The phone doesn't ring either but I do have loudspeaker during a call.
For me the only part I care about is the dialer. I have the dialer installed and when I call it launches HTC phone app. I get the nice features of search but no bugs. So far it has worked nicely

I got that setup to work like that as well, but I don't like the htc phone app taking over the call. I have Google voice + carrier number on the same phone and the Google phone app lets me know if I'm dialing with Google voice or with my carrier number.

Our only hope is Roms or maybe a HTC Google phone like the m7, that would be so awesome.

Why did HTC feel the need to restrict the access to the phone's dialing functions? (rethorical question)

I've enabled permissions for both phone and storage and it still doesn't seem to allow me to change my alarm to a custom ringtone.

Google just updated the stock dialer, it is now compatible with the HTC 10. Any luck?
I tried this earlier today and the new RC9 won't even install for me. No errors, just a failed message after a brief wait. I tried uninstalling the RC8 first but no change.

I got the same thing on other apps. You have to go into permissions to allow it to modify system settings. I don't remember exactly where it is but since the app never rings I uninstalled it.

Looks like there is an easy fix for this now:

keep in mind it breaks Wi-Fi calling settings ( although Wi-Fi calling still works)

Right... and the OP already had it and was modding to get it to work. Not sure how this is relevant. But yes, of course replacing any system files like the HTC dialer will require root...

After I installed the dialer.zip, I installed True Phone Dialer & Contacts from
Hamster Beat. And set it to my default dialer and is well.

How to use - HTC Function Test - HTC Self-Diagnostic (works for all HTC phones)

I recently found a rather useful tool that I wanted to share for anyone else who might have a need for it, best of all is that it is not just limited to HTC 10, I tried it on my gf's HTC One Remix which is VZW's branded version of HTC One Mini 2.
This is accessed through the dialer and does not require root or s-off, it will work on completely stock phones. I am assuming you are required to have a Sense OS but I have no way to test this at the moment, if someone has a Google Edition HTC please let me know if this works for you.
Dial *#*#3424#*#* (once the last * is pressed, the HTC Function Test screen will prop up) - Screenshot
Press 'Accept'
Select which tests you would like to run and press run to start the tests -- there are additional tests available after clicking 'more'. **Screenshot - Available Tests - Screenshot - Tests available on 'more'
As it turns out there are HTC specific 'secret codes' like the function test and there are some that are more general and work on Android phones in general. Link to page with list of 'hidden secrete codes'
Here are the HTC specific 'hidden secrete codes':
*#*#3424#*#* – Run HTC function test program
*#*#4636#*#* – Show HTC info menu
##8626337# – Run VOCODER
##33284# – Perform field test
*#*#8255#*#* – Launch Google Talk service monitor
##3424# – Run diagnostic mode
##3282# – Show EPST menu
##786# – Reverse Logistics Support
Hello, I was actually trying to get into the epst screen. I remember the code from my other HTC, but it doesn't work on my 10. I've had it about 2 weeks. 32gb unlocked version, rooted, twrp, s-on, stock rom with elementX kernel and stock CID right now. Using tmobile service with no issues.
Any guess as to why the code doesn't work? The HTC info menu and function test works, but the other codes don't.
Will this tell us how many in-use hours the phone has on it?

So far the only ones I can get to work are *#*#3424#*#* which does the HTC Function Test program, and *#*#4636#*#* which is the Google Test program... Nothing else seems to work.
I'm on bone stock Nougat. CID:BM___001 MID:2PS6500
Version 2.41.666.3
I did find out through shortcut master that there are some dialer codes used in the HTC 10, but there are very few that actually work... And I haven't figured out why yet...

The best I've seen so far is *#*#4636#*#*, but it doesn't list completely how many in use hours that I can tell... It just lists how long applications have been running for.

A50 Dialer Alternatives

I've been using mostly Moto phones for some time where I can message, add contact, block, and copy numbers directly in the Dialer. The only option available on the Stock A50 Dialer is Delete, which is pathetic. The Google Dialer is shown as non-compatible from the Play Store. I've seen some people talk about using Hiya on Samsung phones, but it's clumsier and has no option for a Dark Theme. I'm wondering what other options are out there without root? Thanks.
try this port of the google dialer for non compatible phones

Thanks much...found an alternate older port this morning and it works...heard this one was newer on that thread. This morning I got a dropdown in the Samsung Dialer that had some of the functionality I was looking for, but I can't bring it back up...yet. Hopefully I'll figure that out as well.
Thanks again!
