Dialer with swipe gestures other than exdialer? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am in love with the swipe gesture that exdialer has, that is swipe left for sms swipe right for call. But there are a lack of themes for exdialer and also it lacks contacts export and import, ability to set specific ringtone for one contact, etc. So what I wanna know is there any other dialer with the swipe gestures? Or is there anyway to bring it to the MIUI dialer?

well there's been this app called 'swipe dialler' a while ago in the play store. i dont think its there anymore. just google it or search for it in the amazon store or getjar. cheers.

Dialer!!!

is there a dialer modification out there which can look for contacts by typing the numbers on the dialpad?
i had this feature in all my last wm phones. on the streak i always have to go for contacts and search for a contact.
hope you know what i mean..
for example i want to get a phonecall to "DAVID" i will choose the numbers 328 and so on and it gets a filtered list with the contact that match the numbers...
thanks for all replies...
Dialer One will do it
gesture search, free from google will do it.
Thanks... Dialer one solves it. But is there way to set it as standard dialer when i hit the phone button on the lower screen in froyo? Dialer one has only a setting for a shortcut on the status bar.
If your using Steve's froyo and adw you can just add the dialer one shortcut to your homescreen then drag and drop it on the default phone icon next to the tray button

[Q] Replacing an app with a widget on taskbar

Hello,
I just recently got the GS3(not rooted, stock everything) and was wondering if the apps located on the bottom taskbar and also the apps shortcuts located on the lock screen can be replaced with a widget? The reason I ask is because of the stock messaging app. The one good feature about this app is that on the lock screen it'll let you know how many unread messages you have by showing a number on the icon for the app. However, I'm not a fan of the app itself(regarding how it interprets picture messages) therefore I've installed GO SMS which was my messaging app from my old Incredible. Unfortunately if you replace the stock messaging app with the GO SMS app on the bottom taskbar and lock screen it will not show how many missed messages you have on the GO SMS icon. However, if you just place the GO SMS widget on any screen the widget will show how many missed messages you have. I've tried all options I can think of but when you drag a widget down to the taskbar it won't go in like the app would nor do I have the option of putting a widget on the lock screen(settings/lock screen/lock screen options/shortcuts). Any suggestions or would this require a root?
Thanks
not in the stock launcher or lockscreen.
you can use Nova and widget locker

exDialer + DashClock missed call extension

On my N4, Kitkat I noticed problem with missed call.
I'm using exDialer and not stock one.
When I have missed call, I press icon in dashclock, but I'm always asked for "complete action with:" adn I have choice for exDialer or History (open stock dialer history).
I already cleared defaults on both apps, but problem persist.
So as I see, that extension can't remeber default app.

Got the same thing but with dialer+ app.
Someone may know a way to force using 3rd party dialer app as default ?

Notification bar

Hi, when using a 3rd party launcher like Apex or Nova, there is no notification bar. Does anyone know how I can get notifications? I tried Swipe Status Bar but it doesn't work. Thanks

There is no constant notification bar like on a phone (always at the top) but you can change the settings to have "swipe down" to display notifications.
Apex settings-->behavior settings-->under gestures select "swipe down"-->show notifications
Problem is, that only works on the home page, not while in other apps. And getting to the home page while in other apps is a pain, since they didn't make a home button...unless I've somehow just missed that.
All In One Gestures (app) is your answer - install from Play Store.
Allows you to configure swipes and taps to allow, e.g, Home action.

Question Notifications in calendar based on location

Hey guys.
Ist there a way to activate notifications (google calendar reminders) based on location ?
Let's say I wanna make sure I lock my car, when I get close to home or my office I'll get a notification "close car"...
Only thing I see on Google is to use Google keep, but since I wanna do this with daily tasks google calendars task or reminders are ideal...
Would love not to use a third party app

Use Routines and Modes....in Settings.
Go to Settings.
Goto Modes and Routines.
Tap the + icon.
Tap the + under if.
Tap Place.
Choose either Arrive....or leave.
Choose your location.
Save.
Then the + under Then.
Tap Notifications.
Tap show Custom notification.
Give the notification a title.
Write whatever you wish.
You can even have it read this notification out.
Modes and Routines is very good...and you can use it to do almost anything on your phone.
It will open calender...but my instructions were to give you a notification on reaching your home location....because that would be better than opening a calender for that purpose.
