On gb... I can access both dialer and contacts simply with the Phone apk. Now I'm forced to use them separately ?
This is extremely annoying.

Did this merit a whole you thread?
If you don't like both seperated, get a third party phone application like Dialer One.

Yes this merit a whole me thread.
Surely though, if you really wanted you could take the phone.apk from GB and just replace it on ICS? It performs the exact same actions so should just work. Maybe it wont, but im sure someone will correct me anyway if thats wrong

Don't think it'll work, different codebase... But you know, why not try. Worst that'll happen is the phone will blow up and kill innocent people around you!
Any developer able to mod the phone.apk to have the contacts tab ?
I feel your pain... I really really hate the separation of phone and contacts, it's not at all user friendly.
and while we're at it, I also hate the new tile look of the favourites. big waste of space, and looks especially ugly when contacts do not have a picture assigned..
Anyone want to try to extract phone.apk and/or dialer.apk from AOSP ICS and see how it works?
Yes I'm very curious about that i wonder if it can be pulled from a cm9 or aokp rom for gnexus

guys i'm on gb 2.3.5 and I'll tell you what; there's no way i'm upgrading (or should that be downgrading) to ics for gs2. from what I've read it's 250 megs or so and all you get is app incompatibility (for the while) anyway and battery life is a complaint too. i'm not budging!!

only the desire of the public to inspire a developer....

still a topic for general discussion.
Coming from the the G1, I think sense is a very appealing UI, I installed custom Hero Roms to get away from the vanilla look because it's so bland!!! I would move this to general as it seems to be more of a rant than anything constructive towards development. Maybe you can PM a DEV and get some better results that way.
The dial/contacts is the worst! imo
Can't we just have the best of both worlds?!
and yes this should be in general.
Does this (And most posts here) really belong in the developer forum?

I have never tried any other dialers, so I can't compare and contrast. But, my issue is the horrible lag. Every button has lag. Ending a call has lag. Starting a call has lag. When someone calls theres lag to end it or mute it. It's all just lag which leads me to accidently answering calls I shouldn't and missing calls I shouldn't.

OT: Good job w/ the ROM
Never tried MIUI but only have tried the Launcher.
AOSP and MIUI would be welcome.
Not really, Going to wait for the real deal, all these "like ASOP" and "like MIUI" "roms" are nothing more then themes that break something that's tied to sense, or only look like what they are suppsoed to on the home screen, everything else just looks the same. Swapping some .apks around doesn't make this a rom and isn't really development, it's theming. No offense.

To the OP, what you need is the zip file of the rom that you want and flash that in recovery. Does that answer your question?
So OP is looking for a .zip file for JB ??
I was really confused by the request, but took a stab at it anyway....
I thought is was flash player that the OP wanted.....g
I thought he wanted to get flash working too. I agreed with the link you sent.
Why is adobe no longer supporting android with flash anyway?

Well,
there are a hundred stories about it on google, but I've yet to here from adobe as to the real cause.
My belief is the difficulty they are having trying to support the massive amount of device and software variants on so many devices.
They simply cannot keep up with the pace of android development....IMHO
And perhaps a suitable replacement is in the works anyway.
Of course, they make the big $$$ on home based PC's and laptops anyway...g
If you want to get Jelly Bean and use an .apk instead of a ROM try nova or apex launcher...go into settings for the launcher and to version...click beta...then reset the launcher...it gives the look and feel to JB while not having that actual operating system...
but do NOT flash any JB apps or mods as you will be running a JB theme of sorts not the actual operating system...at most it will boot loop but who really wants that...unless you have a sweet boot animation
If you were looking for flash for video stand by I guarantee something is replacing it as Google will not be slacking in the video department...They own YouTube... I just do not see them losing something that was an advantage over their biggest competitor for the longest time for no reason...they aren't dumb by any means and I will throw money up to bet there is something replacing it...
Greg was right in the sense that Android has lost a good amount of game developers because keeping up is hard but Google has its users backs...they will come up with something no doubt..

Google really has no choice but too improve and distribute a flash type player, and soon ...g

jamie's temper is not just out of the blue
if users would take the time to read the first 2 posts in which i update frequently then things would be different. but they dont so someone has to say something as im sick of reporting posts and users getting warnings its utterly pointless, so i speak up
99% of info can be found in the op's on how to fix issues, if it isnt search the thread everything has been covered and if all else fails www.google.com is your best friend, use it and abuse it. *then and only then as the op states, you are to post and in full detail your issue*
yet no one does even though its right there in the op.
when users flood dev threads with non-detailed fully covered 10+ times things, someones gunna say something it just so happens that it is me most of the time as i would like users to learn to fix their own issues when its not the roms fault THIS IS WHY THERE ARE THE FIRST 2 POSTS OF THE THREAD. other wise id just have a link to download and a picture and tell users to have atter. *learning is what xda is all about*
so dont mistake my temper as a bad thing and look at the big picture i give more thanks, appreciation and help then "temper" msgs
now maybe you can see where some of the stress and frustration comes from. and why other dev's have left over it.

The new update is cool except I lost the ability to make my status bar and navbar transparent. The way the toggles are represented is different and not really welcome. This has nothing to do with how you built the rom but I will stay on the Oct 2 build until my issues are resolved.

I want to go into my Rom's theme and change everything ( lock, keypads, numpads, icons, text, ect.) to an only three color theme. Is it possible to do that without 100 hours of work? I want a black background with red letters, icons, borders and numbers with white text windows with black and red text input. I would like either a step by step tutorial (because I'm not too bright) or someone who can do it for me Thanks!
How about 200 hrs of work, may I suggest viper3d rom 4.1 sense, different skins can be applied. You can also try a 3rd party launcher ie go, nova or adw, just to mention a few

What is "inbreaded Rom"? If you feel like elaborating I would appreciate it. I did read up on building roms and "whew" I better start off a little slower . I am very interested though. Logically speaking, it doesn't seem that it should be that difficult to, lets say, "take an existing rom and find all the files that has to do with color assignments and change them to the values that you want". I know it sounds way easier than it actually is. I still wouldn't mind donating to someone who could handle this "little bit" for me or give me one thats close and tell me how to change the rest.

It must be a real pain, enough so that no one wants to do it for me. Several of my friends share the interest in a more simplified but personalized color scheme for phones. Most of them are like me in that only three colors are desired and couple want four. I wonder if someone could build a program that would allow you to change the color of every aspect of your phones screens (like how you customize Windows), I can't imagine it not being a hit. I saw one having to do with Panda but it sucked and I can't seem to get the Kingdom app to work. If you get bored one day and feel like a challenge, well, I'll be here and I'll still donate
