How do I change the default phone app to dialerPro ? When I click on a missed call icon in notification bar, it opens up in the default phone app. When I first clicked it it ask me which app to open - I chose dialerOne and checked "always use this", but it opened in the phone app instead.
I tried to clear defaults in application settings, but it says "no defaults are set"
So any ideas ?
Anyone tried to remove the default phone app ?
So I have to try it on my own, then ? Oh, man...

I've read somewhere that it was impossible on froyo to replace the default phone app, might have been on the DialerOne's description
So anyone can tell me how to make dialerOne the default dialer ?
When I force-close it, I can't make calls, and there are no defaults set for it.

Spot on mate. But somebody in Azure thread made DialerOne using the method used by grandioso and it works. I tried it myself but was unsuccessful.

I'm on the stock 407 with my dell streak. Basically when on the stock messaging app, when a text message exceeds 160 characters it is converted to MMS. I have been using third party apps but I really prefer the default. My streak is rooted, and I was wondering if anyone knew a way to stop my text messages being converted to mms?
search in the setting that called as SMS Split or something similar...
sms split will auto split any message above 160 character... and therefore avoiding sms to mms conversion..

Where do I need to look for SMS split? In superuser? Sorry I'm new at this.
open your messaging application and then press the streak hardware middle button... it should show Settings or something similar...

I am in the messaging settings there is nothing in here about split sms or anything like that. Is there some kind of app I have to install to get that setting?
Does anyone else have any other helpful suggestions?

As I stated above, that setting does not appear and if you actually read the post you'd know I'm using the default messaging app.
I was referring to this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1423340 that someone suggested.
It tells you to change some system files, I've tried ES file explorer but it only lets me access my SD card.
ok... sorry for the trouble...

Es explorer does have root access but not by default you have allow access through its.settings!
Hope this helps

notice the red box on the picture 01? select it...

SMS issue
I have a Streakk 5 running Stock 360, rooted with a few tweaks and I have no problems sending long txt's or pics. I have tried multiple Gingerbread rom's and I have foung the split SMS option in some, but all of them require me to have my data on to send or recieve pics. I have a limited data package and was hoping someone knows of how to change settings or of an app that will allow me to send and recieve pics without data on.

[Q] How to remove annoying message "clear default app settings by going to settings"
Hello guys
Since JB on SGS3, my phone KEEPS asking me to set defaults for the same things, really bloody annoying.
"Clear defaults
Clear default app settings by going to settings > applications manager > all"
An utter pain in the arse. Anyone found a way to make Touchwiz remember defaults or to stop giving this newbie bollocks message?
I'd love some brainy hacker to make it gooo away!

Titanium -> backup/restore -> TouchWiz -> freeze
Make sure you have a proper launcher already loaded, like ADW/Nova etc.

thanks mate, i will try that!
i am thinking though, wouldnt freezing touchwiz also stop the (FANTASTIC) features of samsung, like the "stay on" feature and the excellent Samsung Calendar? Major reasons why I would never go back to Cyanogenmod.

NOPE!
after a reboot it is back to square one, the message comes up again.
there has got to be a way to make the system remember that stuff, surely?!
EDIT
not quite square one... it seems files I have opened before using a specific app will continue to work with that app automatically, but if I, for example, open a pdf document in Maildriod and tell it to open with Adobe reader, then click on the same PDF in the GMail app, it will ask me again... so it seems to be based on the app it is coming FROM and not the type of link/file you are clicking on. Pretty daft IMO.

No, Samsung apps are independent of TouchWiz and will work with any launcher.
The only repeating request for default I've experienced is when I left TouchWiz in after I'd added ADW - it came up after each boot to ask which launcher I wanted and then ignored the 'always' bit. After I frozen TouchWiz it's all working as expected, opening each file type responds with the app I've chosen to use with it (from the launcher).
I just tried the exact test you describe, opening a .pdf in two apps. After I'd set the option from each app it remembers the setting - but it just doesn't appear to be a system wide setting, like it would be in Windows.
If it keeps asking the same question from the same app then you may have a problem, otherwise I think it's just the way JB works.

I will check, though my nexus 10 tablet NEVER has a message telling me that I can clear default app settings... so it's not a google thing but a samsung one.
I will see over a week or so if it does remember, though i guess with each rom update I have to enter all the bloody defaults again... one of the down sides of customising rom's frequently.
cheers

I've never been sure, which app do you clear defaults, origin or destination?

Not for me, I cannot get that message to stop, My phone remembered no defaults before root or since. In fact rooting was the biggest waste of time I can think of, its changed nothing
why did you root if you didn't know what you needed it for?
Hello, about three weeks I have a problem that I can not set a default dialer.
I tried different rom including stock. I have a nexus fourth
And everywhere, always when I click on the notification of a missed call or sms the number should be. So I get the window at you select the application you want to run. I'll give that a Exdialer and always the same with me when the next event will again offer either select an application in which I want to go. Other app are set as default fine. Problem is only the dialer.
Please you do not know what could be the problem?
you could try

removing original app from system and converting your user app to system
i use rom toolbox pro to do this sort of things but alternatives also available
does it remember if you set to remember stock phone app?
maybe its a Exdialer bug ? try asking developer
I hide the notification of incallUI during a call and now i cant answer the phone cause it doesnt appear the screen to answer, what should i do except a factory reset?
You can go into the phone app notifications and enable it again, also if you're using MIUI you have to enable to show on lock screen on the special permissions on the app info...
Also make sure you have your Default Phone app is set to Google Phone or whatever Dialer you are using, set it again and reboot, you should be good.

Hello,
To solve this go to TWRP. Locate a folder named Package_cache inside etc or system or data. I forgot the exact location. But it should be there.
Delete this folder and reboot to system. That's it.. you will get the cache created again and will be able to see the UI in call. You need not to wait for incoming calls. Even you can dial somebody to check.
Hit thanks if it helps you. Cheers

Actually it worked for me 3 to 4 times (all the times I tried). Not sure why it didn't work for you. It should be.
Any way thanks for keeping posted. Hope a resolution for your issue arrives soon. Thanks
If you are using poco f1... this worked for me...
just update the phone app in play store... then go in app settings and clear cache... restart your device again go in phone apps app info then choose default calling app as phone (google's default phone app)... and boom it worked...
Hello friends, I am considering to buy Redmagic 7 and wanted to know if anyone is using Google dialer with it. Last time I checked was for Redmagic 6S and Google phone didn't produce a ring when a call was received. Is it still the same? The reason I am asking is, Google phone is kind of important for me as it has automatic spam blocking and nearby places functions.
Greetings,
I just installed now and tried it out, I called myself and the sound/vibration was working.

huge thanks for trying it out, it was almost the most important downside for me. Did you make the Google Dialer default app, or is it just standard install?
I've got the phone a week ago and have been using nothing but the Google dialer as the default dialer since first boot.

Did you change both the Phone and Call apps to Google Dialer in Default app settings? Do you also use Google Contacts app, does it sync?
