[Q] dialer? - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

which dialer do you suggest for the x10 mini?
I have a further question: if during a call I press the right key (the one with the arrow) the phone enters the menu...how do I end the call then??
thanks

Best dialer would be ( personally ) SuperDial ( on the patched market )
Take a look at the screenshot
You can end the call only after the screen comes back!!!

Scroll down the status bar menu, press the phone icon... end the call.

aTakePhone
Super dialer was my default in my old phone (DSTL1), on my X10 it doesnt looks good so i switched to aTakephone.. it works well.
if you goes to the menu screen or any other screen from active call, pull down ur notification bar from top and you can switch to the active call from there, then you can end call from your side.

swItched to atakephone , its neat

Can rooted x10 finally remove the lockscreen?

Please tell me you can! Give me a dream! Show me some hopes.
(i am about to break my x10 in half for 1-2 more lock screen freeze on calls)
Have you tried MyLock from the app market?
There's an app called "No lock" That disables the initial swipe lock, but if enabled it unfortunately also disables the security swipe codes too.
how do you use MyLock
I found it useless
+1 for nolock
no lock is ****e. it doesnt properly lock and unlock the screen. more like a black screensaver.
what is needed is a way to unlock using KEYS, something like in the keyboard mapping trick

I've had "goto" for a few days and it's great.
Lots of options from lock screens; shortcut to email, call logs, messages, etc.
Sometimes it goes to x10 default swipe screen but goto screen will kick in almost immediately. You'll see what I mean.
You'll be glad you tried it out
I hate the lockscreen slider
When I press "on" I want my phone "on"
And answering calls with the finger slide is a pain in the ass
I thought I would get used to it, but NO
NoLock didn't solve the problem because you still have to slide to answer, and yes your phone goes to homescreen when pressing the ON button, but also when pressing ANY button (including the volume keys which get pressed easily inside my pocket), finally NoLock screws up the notification bar slider
There MUST be a way to answer calls by just pressing an icon or button, without having to slide the finger
There MUST be a way to just press the f*ck!ng ON key and start using the phone
.
If only we can remove that bloody lockscreen...

My experience with touchscreen phones is this is a completely silly idea.
Think of all the time the button would get accidentally pressed in your pocket, and the battery life loss while on in your pocket.
I don't know how it works on Windows Mobile, but one would think this would be an even worse problem due to how prolific resistive touchscreens are on WM.

The problem i found with goto is that to answer calls you still have to swype, and when trying to turn off an alarm clock at 7 in the morning its really uncomfortable to use. Other than that its pretty awesome.
there should be a way to do this, perhaps tinkering with framework-res.apk could do the trick (either enable double click to unlock like in hero, or just simplify the swype movement)
(ive asked about this before)
im just discovering android and x10.
if get desperate enough i'll try to simply replace the relevant files from stock 1.6 firmware ... im gonna reflash anyway for 026 or 2.1
worst thing is this lockscreen during call - many times i dont even se WHO is calling.

I disabled the menu button switching on the phone by editing the file in system/user/keylayout, now only the power button switches it on.
To get rid of the lockscreen would be really useful to me now I've done that...

i wonder if messing with the framework can do it,
what i really noticed is how GOTO Lockscreen are able to replace the original one 99% of the time while other app like lockbot - which i adorably like - can't do this and instead show two lockscreens over each other
mylock and nolock are of NO USE they are both useless
No app i found can replace the swipe call , and only GOTO can fully replace the standby lockscreen,
i triend most of the lock screens out there but with no use..
btw, Widgetlocker is for 2.1+ right ??
Ive tried to use tasker to do this, so far it can react headphone plugged in and unlock the screen automatically (sometimes: /)
I ve tried to test if camera button can be detected during call and then unlock the phone - didnt work - event which supposed to fire on call is not activating.
Also camera button is ignored on locked screen.
By editing the keymap with the FOCUS key the phone wakes up but tasker doesnt handle this key. Perhaps it is possible to write the plugin....
Ah if only we could compile custom kernel.. every problem can be solved when you can cook on your own...

Ah, I see.
Still, to me, it seems useful to have that extra layer of security protecting my battery life. Never know how many times that power button will get accidentally pressed in your pocket!

Hi twentybenson, so could you explain how you edited the file, which file (i have three) and changes you made?

I keep hitting the HOLD BUTTON on free x10.

Hello,
Is there any way to get rid of that ******* hold button on freex10 . i have pressed it like numerous times and it wont take long before i really bang my head on the wall .
Can we replace the phone apk ( i dont know what it is really called , Dialer app?)
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
Two things, is the proximity sensor on the phone working? IE, does the phone screen black out when u put it up to your face?? If NOT, that is the main issue.
Two, you can go into settings and change the layout of the dialer for left or right handed and move the hold button away from your face!
Hope this helps,
Chris

Still should be there on 2.2 roms, phone settings, scroll to bottom of the page, left handed option?? Hmmmm, not sure what dialers are in the market, my wife used an ed hardy themed dialer, but that was on 2.1fw... might be an option?

I did check many a times ... i don't have this option . don't know why.. and think there is no way to over-ride the stock dialer app which shows ON-CALL . i am i wrong here ?( i wish i am )
and why is my right handed/left handed setting is missing ? "confused"
Haven't run z's rom since first beta, but on other aosp based 2.2's its there n on my 6.1.1cm rom I just looked it up..... hmmm, I am stumped... hit android market, should have a dialer option or two!!

i can CONFIRM that the settings ARE in FreeX10 Beta 4.
Go to your homescreens -->> press menu -->> settings -->> call settings -->> check left-hand mode (2nd last before "other call settings") -->> reboot
I have the same problem with the same rom. Yesterday I lost half of my story because of this . Changing the settings is not an option because I tend to switch sides a lot during a call. Might try another dialer.

You could try freezing the stock dialed in titanium..?

Menu -> Settings -> Call Settings -> Always use proximity!
Check that box and you are done.

3 clicks to pick up phone !!! =[

is it just me or do you find it annoying that it take 3 clicks just to answer a call!
1.unlock phone (im using widget locker and that takes me straight to the phone app yet i cant answer directly from there =/)
2.swipe down notification bar
3. click the green button to answer
is there a way to make the phone apk come up like a popup or like normal and unlock the screen and full screen?
i tried using dialerone but that didnt ever turn on =/
any suggestions ?

It must be due to widgetlocker as I simply hit the answer button when I get a call.
most android phones, when you get a call, pick up your phone and swipe the answer button, and say hello. not sure what you've got going on to make that so difficult

yep you were right about the widget locker. but i fixed it so it shows incoming texts and calls.
i did it by opening the widget locker app > clicking the phones menu button > Settings > Popups > unticking hide sms & incoming calls.
you should be able to pick up using the home button, no idea how widget locker behaves but with the stock locker I can answer that way (assuming I enabled the home button in settings)

There's a setting in WidgetLocker that allows you to answer the phone calls without the need to unlock the phone, it's called Hide incoming call, make sure it isn't green.

[Q] Galaxy Note Dialing...??

HI !
Imma try my best to explain what i need here, Apologize for any confusion
What i want uhm... a fast dialing way (numbers or CONTACTS) (NOT SPEED DIAL)
For example
I have to hit the green-phone button > contacts > choose a name > then call that contact" 4 Touches HERE
Is there a SHORTER way to like Go in contact > as soon as you click on any contact it will dial immediately (2 Touches Here)
My previous phone had the green button next to the contact so if i want i just hit the green button to make a call a little faster on that specified contact
In gingerbread, you can go into contacts and just swipe right to call or swipe left to msg! Its that simple

Phone dialer is blocking screen

Hello:
I have a chinese Iphone copy (MT6573 processor, android 2.2) with a laucher that mimics IOS.
I'm having a problem with the phone dialer. Always when I originate a call, the dialer blocks the screen, what makes impossible to finish the call.
The dialer app image is on screen but when I press the button to finish the call or the back button, screen just go black. When I press again, it returns to the dialer screen, but if I press buttons again, the screen is cleared again.
The dialer just releases the screen when my interlocutor finishes the call or telco operator finishes the voice mail.
I installed GO Dialer EX and Espier Launcher, but the problem persist.
Do you guys hane any clue what is happening?
Thanks
Rods.
Could you take a few screenshots? I'm confused on what you mean here.
