Since I have turned from sense to CM7 I really missed the sense dialer. Not anymore
I found this: EX Dialer
It is a MIUI look a like dialer with a contact manager.

I decided to give it a go because everyone was suggesting it's lightweight and fast, and I guess it is true. It's not natively designed for LDPI (Nitpick). My biggest gripe is that the dialer is a bit laggy though, but I guess it's inevitable when this is not done via a native app.
There's no doubt though its an amazing app, and its free at that. So, if you are missing the smart dialer on AOSP ROM's, its definitely worth a try.
Screenshots:
I don't have any issues with cm7 dialer? I start typing contacts name and the number pops up.
I don't understand what's missing?

I had no luck with that. I m only able to select the contact or type the nr - with cm7 dialer
How can i solve this?

How can u pop up that ? I have no luck too.
I think he means when you press the search key (in dialer) and you write the contact name it shows up.
I guess. I don't see any other way
Lol my bad,sorry.I'm mistaken for theText msg it works on.

Niiiice......=))
to try it!
its fast,but too simple. Go contacts looks better but too slow.
iam using Touchpal Dialer
its the fastest one ive found on the market for free
I have to agree with the poster above. Touchpal is the fastest of all I've tasted so far.

does this work on legend? it doesnt on mine but may be because needs to be rooted to work, the demo works and ive got it switched on for text input but doesnt actually use swype in texts or anything.
anyone else tried this?
It's working, even without root.

Maybe you have to google for a newer version.
It's working here also nicely. Using the open beta. Just wishing for more language packs, like German and Indonesian.
I s/l it and have it selected as the keyboard, but it won't come up as the keyboard.... am I doing something wrong?

The beta works flawlessly for me so far.. Make sure to enable it in your input options. Takes a bit to get used to and I definitely recommend finishing the tutorial (and I'm not a tutorial kinda person) and even reading the tips. It's wicked once you get used to it.
The keyboard will appear as below when properly enabled.

sorry for the late reply guys, it does work on legend. once you have selected it under keyboard settings. when you go to a text message for example do a long press in the text box and it will say change input method. change this to swype

I was playing with my friends evo the other day... and i really liked his dialer/phone app. is there anyway i can port that over? or is it phone specific? can i just grab the apk over from his phone or a rom?
Pictures &/ link would help quite a bit

Pretty sure system apps are phone specific, the framework is tailored specifically for the Evo.....you can try it, and it if doesnt work just do a restore

how would we able to tell if it would work on the vibrant just by looking at a picture? it doesnt matter what the app looks like.......its the dialer from the evo, which is a system app unique to the model...thats all we need to know.....its obviously safe to say that the app is most likely not coded to function on devices other than the Evo
I suggest just downloading Dialer One from the Market. It has a similar layout to the Sense dialer, and you can customize it how you want. That's why we have 3rd party devs
you could also try "takephone" dialer....just to give you some options
it has cool skins, and a very cool scrollable favorites bar
The EVO runs HTC Sense so there are too many differences in the frameworks that the dialer in HTC Sense needs for it to work. This has been a question that people have asked since the first release of Sense.
there are some system apps that can work on other devices, but it just depends on how much the manufacture of the device changed the system app to use things that they added to the framework. But this is one that will not work on a non-Sense device.
If there's anyone that likes this amazing keyboard just like I do and would like to try new Beta of Swiftkey 2
Follow the link and get access to the VIP

It does but I don't like the feature I always disable it on any keyboard..
Had a ton of issues with the last beta and ended up going back to the standard Swiftkey. Got an email earlier, I'll have to give this one a try.

I'm still trying it out .. I'm not really interested in the facebook,gmail,etc.. learning setting..so I been using it as I always have so far I haven't had an issue yet I noticed a bit of improvement with voice to txt ..
Just downloaded it and have noticed it is alot better than the previous beta. Although I have noticed a few bugs, sometimes when I hit the space bar it goes backwards. It also auto creates a word after using punctuation. That
may be because I have set to rapid.

I think that can be fixed with the settings
Minor keyboard issue
I LOVE SwiftKey! This beta has been working fairly smoothly since download, but whenever I use my hard keyboard (Evo Shift) the "!" doesn't work. I end up with a "?" whether I use the function key to select it or not. Weird. The other thing I noticed is that when I use the back key in some apps, it doesn't take me to the previous screen, I'm stuck with the prediction bar.
It's still functional enough for me to continue using it without reverting back to the paid version. Did I mention that I LOVE SwiftKey??
Just found out about IIDA Home Launcher after looking through the screenshots thread. Made a CWM zip to try it out, it's attached.
Original Thread
The original download was the entire system/app dump of the Xperia(i think). I cut it down to only the IIDA apks, nothing get over written so you can delete the files after installing if you decide to ditch it.
My first impressions, it's really cool. It's like WP7 Metro but the app drawer is just a downward scroll instead of an icon.
But we'll have to work on it a bit to make it work on the Atrix. Also we'll have to figure out how to add locations to the lists, right now it seems to be only Japanese cities. And the email tab doesn't work. Also, we'll probably want to silence the beep on touch, but that's probably as easy as replacing a sound file with silence.
Here's a few screens:

I used this launcher for a couple days just before CM7 was updated. It was fun finding pictures and "flare" but it was also kind of buggy. At one point the calendar just disappeared and when I reflashed I forgot how frustrating moving all of my apps from the bottom to their respective sections was. Moments later CM7 came out and I left it in the dust. But I'm back on Darkside now since I need Webtop. I'll definitely give it another go.

This is awesome, i cant wait.
the weather app(the one with japanese cities only) is a different game, it pulls the information from a 2 different websites one for area and one for prefecture, we do not use prefectures in America so im kinda scratching my head to see how we are going to make this app work , the twitcheck app does not deodex properly according to another member who tried and i can't seem to find the facebook check or the music tile for the launcher, the Launcher itself is more than stable and it can be used on a daily basis.
check this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1313247&page=10 there is a conversation between me and another member who is working on the same launcher too.
I've seen plenty of discussion about the One X series multitasking performance and tweaks to address it, but not much about HTC's UI for recent apps. I really don't like the cover-flow-like UI - I really don't need the 3D or reflections effects, it limits what I can see to only 2-3 apps (and only 1 with a name), and it requires extra scrolling to get to an app 2 or 3 back.

Maybe I am terrible at searching, but is there a way to get the standard ICS recent apps view?
No way of getting the stock ics multitasking yet. Only way is to run an aosp Rom.

:crying:
On the Charmeleon rom you can disable the sense recent apps. Which reverts it to vanilla style.
I'm going to be blunt. Yes. yes you are.
I too dislike the cards, but as regalpimpin said, the Char ROM is the only one I've seen that has the option for stock recent apps UI. Would love a flashable zip for this, or how-to on disabling the Sense version.

I knew I was asking for it with that title. Clearly that's not entirely true, but I am surprised it doesn't bother more people. Even the GB recent apps UI was more efficient for switching, unless of course what you wanted was more than 6 apps back.
I'll have to give Charmeleon ROM a try. Or maybe I will go back to using Wave Launcher for now since I've got the recent apps button mapped to menu anyway.
