I've been using CM7 for a few weeks now and the stock dialer works well but is missing speed dial. I was very happy with the samsung dialer and the speed dial functions of at least 50 speed dial numbers. Does anyone know any market dialer apps that support more than 9 speed dial njmbers? Or does anyone know if the samsung dialer app works with cm7? Can it be installed?
I would like to know if there is an speed dial app or dialer app in general for the CM7 Rom. I can't stand not to have speed dial.
I use an app called "speed dial". Works really good. Works little different than the stock speed dial, you select a number you want then hit send. I back it up with Titanium Backup and it saves the programmed list.
Good Luck.
does anybody know an app which has the option to silence, reject call with sms, etc for cm7,. i miss these features in cm7

These are features built in the Rom. Any third party dialer uses the phone apk to make or answer calls, so the answer is no

Hi!
I find the default sms app a bit lacking in features, it's not very nice/pretty and it's slow. I've tried handcent and go sms pro, and they're OK but I feel they're also a bit slow and sluggish. So what do you guys use?
And hm, the dialer, why oh why can't they implement it like for example the HTC Sense one, where you can dial the "letters" of a contact with the dial-pad and it'll find it? Like 2 = abc, 3 = def, etc... Anyone know a better one for SE?
Handcent was always really quick for me until recently.. about a month ago maybe? (was using it for ages on my X10..) Would like to know if anyone can suggest an alternative to that..
I used superdial for a while, but it's not being supported now as they're doing a complete re-write.. however, dialer one looks pretty good.
I am using Handcent SMS although it seems slow & sluggish now, was quick on X10i. I have tried Go SMS Pro also, but Go SMS is way too slow & sluggish on ARC So i have to live with Handcent... As i am a SMS-person, i need a fast SMS app I will try Chomp SMS within days...
I use stick dialer
For Calls, I recommend Dialer One. It has Speed dial (type numbers for letters), and it's customizable. For SMS, i'm still with the default one.
For dialing I'm using TouchPal Smart Dialer:

For sms I'm using Handcent SMS: ( not sluggish at all for me )
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.handcent.nextsms
for sms ... go sms pro ... but i didnt use the handcent to compare so ill try it and tell ya
for dail . default becuz i feel the other is complicated .. but im gona try again hehe
ARC of NOAh
I have purchaised donate version of Chomp SMS today.. Using it & it is quciker & faster than handcent & Go sms pro so far, but need more testing
Touchpal dialer and go sms pro. Both do the job good for me.

i used to use dialerone but have recently switched to youlu which loads much faster. the latest version is integrated with sms. i prefer to use a separate sms app (go sms pro by the way) so i downloaded v1.5 from the internet which was the latest version before the sms function was added.
I am using RocketDial Pro - cool dialer!!
I have tried pair GO SMS + GO Contacts, but it had not good localization, & after RocketDial found i`ve delete them & now use standart app for SMS.
I've always been a massive fan of handcent SMS, havent gotten around to installing it on my arc yet, but if it's really laggy i might give one of the others a go.
Was happily using diallerone on my previous phone. However there was a recent update of the app and it suddenly started to request *far* too many permissions from the phone for a simple dialler app, so i wont be installing it on my arc.

I have no lag at all with Handcent, so I'd suggest you try it if you use to use it. It can always be uninstalled if it's bad for you.
I was really liking the stock sms app. Even liked it on my x10. But i just realized that the arc's messaging app doesn't have the search function.
I used to use it all the time. Anyone got any other suggestions. I want it to be just like the arcs standard app but with search.

power search is great.. and you'll be able to search calendar and pretty much anything else!
i use the GO products from the DEV Team,
i like go sms pro, and also uss go contacts and go dialer,
i was using go launcher ex on my HTC desire before, but right now i stayed with the SE ARC's normal home launcher
I use Go Dialer and handsent for sms,,
Never sluggish for me,,,,,,
Go SMS is definitely much better than the stock app
Are any of the various SMS apps mentioned here better suited to landscape usage?
The stock one is ok but when viewing previous messages the bar along the top of the screen with the contact information in it takes up a lot of room - the picture etc could easily be shifted to one side instead.
And when composing a message, the send button is hidden behind the keyboard, with the pointless 'add media' button above it.
If anyone knows of a messaging app that addresses both of these issues, I'd be interested to hear.
I will be trying Chomp, Go SMS and Handcent soon anyway but I'd still appreciate the feedback.
I use chomp SMS and dialer2. Chomp is similar to iPhone with the conversation bubbles, it comes with several themes or you can create your own...its very customizable. I highly recomend chomp. Dialer2 is ok. It is all black with white text and numbers. It doesn't have many features but it can search your contacts using the t9 number pad like sense.

Is there a way of disabling the default notification when using another sms app? when I installed both Go and Handcent I get two notifications for each sms.
Hey
I just moved from WinMo to Android (Omnia i900 modded). The stock call logger shows all the calls and the messages in it. I want to do 2 things:
1. Clear messages from the call log. - Other threads suggest going to Phone/Contacts/History and then setting to show only the calls, but that is not practical for 1000+ contacts if you're doing that one by one. Another option mentioned is to set to "View By" which is absolutely useless.
2. How to stack/group all the calls made to the same contact together (be it calls to home/work/mobile etc.) - something that was being done in WinMo (up to WinMo 6.5)
Any suggestions people.
I like the stock dialer app, so not much interested in switching to an alternate (except as a last option). Thanks in advance

The only solution i have for you right now is, use another mess app and freeze the samsung mess app
Thanks for the reply. But is there not a mod that is available from a developer which could solve this issue. I believe that this is an issue with Gingerbread nd a lot of people must be having the same complain.
Otherwise, any suggestions on an alternate dialer / sms client which would be the PERFECT alternate for the stock dialer?

This is a custom Samsung call log that does this. The stock gingerbread call log does not show texts with calls, and it also groups calls from same person together in a sub expandable list.
The Samsung call log just stinks is the problem. If only you could load the stock version.

Any idea how to get hold of the stock Gingerbread call log app. Any apk available for that?
So I use GrooveIP to make calls on my phone, and I've been using it on the tablet at home - problem is, I hate the way groove manages contacts (it doesnt really). The OTHER problem is that, beacuse I just have a wifi tab, my contacts app and google voice WONT let me dial contacts directly from those apps. Is there any way to make it so that my tablet recognizes groove IP as a phone and lets me dial from GV and the contacts app?
Anyone? =/
Skype? O-o
No, i mean like - the tab 10.1 doesn't recoginze calling as an action - you can't use "call" as a voice action, you cant click on numbers in the contacts app to call someone. I'm trying to find a way around that. >_>;

Currently that's a little challenging :\ I haven't figured a way around that apart from skype. There was a way to add a Phone.apk module that would allow it, but was still WIP

Thats what I figured needed to happen - has there been any progress on that? =/
Actually, to clarify a bit, the effect I'm going for:
In the contacts app included in the tab 10.1, when you open a contact and click on a phone number, nothing happens. I'd like to be able to click on a number and have the option to call it via GrooveIP. ANYTHING to have that kind of functionality would be nice.

Unfortunately GrooveIP hasn't added that feature to enable it as a default/optional choice, Like how when you have messaging, and you download GoSMS, it asks you which you prefer to use. Likewise GrooveIP has to offer that function, or it probably does? But the Phone.apk isn't detected hence it doesn't give the option?
I agree the option the OP speaks of would be nice.. I wote GrooveIP an email asking if this is possible from their end..
I'm running Peetr's Hybrid rom and noticed that It doesn't have a built in voicemail handling app. So if someone leaves me a voicemail I just get a really wierd text message instead. I was using PF voicemail for call forwarding and voicemail since I was having major service coverage issues and that will tell you missed calls no matter what. But I don't want to use that anymore since it's slow and I'm having problems with it. So my question is. What do I use for voicemail? Is there anything similar to that visual voicemail app that originally came with my phone? Free would be great but if it works I would shell out a couple bucks.
I'm wondering the same thing. I'm using the AOKP JB Rom (thx 3bill) and get multiple text messages for each voicemail. Personally, I loved the visual voicemail that came stock and I'm hoping there's a way to port it in. You can still check your voicemail though just by dialing yourself. BTW, how do you like that Rom as I haven't tried it yet but am loving the AOKP one?
Well this rom is about as good as it gets for me since I have a locked bootloader. But it is very nice compared to stock. I'm using Google voice right now for voice mail and it works pretty good so far. I just wish my texts didn't show up in it at all.

I use Google Voice. It's very configurable. When a voicemail comes in it can notify you by text, e-mail, etc. plus the standard functions you had with visual voicemail that came with the phone. The key is to go into Google Voice web site settings and prevent it from prescreening your calls and handling your texts.

Yep. I just found that out today. I was wondering why the hell it kept asking me to press numbers to answer my calls.

You can turn that off in settings. Not on the app, but on the website. It refers to feature as 'call screening'.
I had an app on my HTC U11 that allowed me to confirm yay or nay before I put the call through, It is not working on this phone. I have installed another 4 apps, all not working so I'm assuming it has something to do with Android 9.
Has anyone got any suggestions please. I tend to make accidental phone calls
Where do you start a phone call from?
From the contact list?
Yes, and I also have a widget which displays my favourites (contacts) None of the apps I have installed work
Some dialer app can enable a confirmation popup before calling.
However widget initiated calls are generally not provided with this functionality.
Call confirm
I found it!! It's called "tiny call confirm"!!
You're welcome!! ?
