Hi All,
I am currently running CM9. But, am facing a few issues. So, was thinking of going back to stock ROM for a while. I love the AOSP look and love the CM9 dialer.
Almost all the stock based themed ROM's are having a themed stock dialer.
[ which doesn't even have contacts list inside, it is very annoying !! ]..
Some ROM's, I see are having AOSP dialler, but it doesn't have the CM9 functionalities, in particular Smart T9 dialler.
In addition, the stock call animation is present. [v.v.ugly].
The AOSP / CM9 call animation is so much better.
Sorry, if this feels as if I am hating on touchwiz, but take this as my opinion and not a fact. [ I love some touchwiz features, which I am not getting in CM9].
I know that earlier the Resurrection ROM was having CM9 dialer, but westcrip seems to have moved on to AOKP ..
So, please help me find out any ICS themed stock ROM, with CM9 dialer like functionality.
this is not a ROM suggestion but...
You can try an app called exDialer and download the ICS theme for it. It looks a lot like the CM9 dialer and has the T9 dialer.

Thanks for the suggestion. But, I prefer using the stock one instead of third party applications. [ Have seen that the stock application , keeps on using the memory, under the system application, and I understand that it is a bigger problem on my older phone, SGS, which had .v.little memory. ]
But still would prefer the stock.
Is it possible to add the CM9 Incall screen and the Incoming call screen's to a non CM9 build? I love CM9 for these 2 things alone, but can they alone be ported to run on a "stock" build?
I know there are playstore apps that "mimic" this to a degree, but they all fail in some way or another. Like when call waiting clicks in etc...
It's probably possible to do this, but not likely at all that anyone would take the time to get it to work.
There are theme options that can mimic it to a degree, but as you have experienced, they can only go but so far.
If you like the CM9 experience, why not just flash CM9?
If ur on ics rom then no its not possible..ics is no where near cm9 any mods u try from ics to cm9 will bootloop or just not work!

The bane of ICS for me and my OCD is the terrible mixture of froyo and gingerbread style sony apps with the new ICS theme. I'm sure it goes against the conventions set in google's guidelines on how to make apps for ICS and its slowly but sure driving me me me much more insane.
I would be grateful on a discussion of what can be done to remedy this dreadful plight... I have gathered a couple of ideas but I am looking for more!
1. The music player has ghastly bubbles in its corners and does not fit with ICS theme.
in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1716549
Lasanda links to a thread with an APK that updates the default player to a walkman version ripped by doomlord which can be found in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1676013
also I would suggest trying out vanilla music player, it's open source and works with the new lockscreen as well as having widgets that work in other launchers. I can't get the album artwork to work on my mini though (while it works no problem on an android mediaplayer I also have) so would appreciate if anyone else has any input.
2. The home screen's capped framerate now looks laggy since the ICS ui has significantly improved graphical performance from extra use of the GPU. The color scheme and style of the bubbles is also out of phase with the new ICS theme. They shoulda just changed the bubbles for futurisitic triangles or something.
- the best I've managed so far is replacing with zeam
3. call screen : bubbles/
-no idea, if anyone has any clue what to do here if and how to replace the call screen I would be happy and give you my thanks.
Apart from lack of encryption and this poor theme, ICS is good for me. Please share any more tips to improve it further though
thanks
Is it possible in a non CM9 rom ( not sure if the dailer / incoming call screen is a feature of CM9 or AOSP. ) to add those screens? I love the big image on Cm9 when you get an incoming call, and the same for outgoing calls, however, I'd love to be able to get the S-Pen support too and really, that's the only Cm9 Feature i'm missing when I go back to the more stock roms..

It's the asop dialer and I was looking for the same but found that no one has been able to port that to stock roms for any device. It seems hard coded to the Samsung framework.

Bummer... That's the gem I love. I know there are things on the play store and i've bought 2 diffrent ones, but in the end they are quirky at best...
Thanks for the reply

U r right.
None of the third party apps works well
While I haven't used it much yet, Ultimate Call Screen looks pretty good. There's a free demo version. Has a lot of features and high resolution pictures look incredible on it. It's working well so far on the Perfection ICS rom I'm running.
I flashed the AKOP dialer to my ICS phone, it works for a day then it just starts FC'ing every time. I wish someone would port it, UCS works perfect for caller ID pics, but I really like the contact section of the AKOP dialer a lot better than the ugly Touchwiz one.
When i install a custom rom, i expect that it includes all the features of Stock rom and has additional features.
But i realized that some of the key features of stock rom are not included in custom roms.
For example Stock Camera App has a lot of cool features like "Face Detection" and "Video Stabilize". But most of the roms has Camera ICS and it has not these features(in pro version it says it has video stabilize but i couldn't see it).
Also Stock Phone application is perfect for me because it has an opiton like slide right and left for messaging and phone calling. But in custom rom you need more steps to call or message.
So my first question is...
Is there any custom rom that has ability to use stock camera application and stock phone application ? Also i wonders is this possible or not ?(or any other stock application)
My second question is about an Iphone feature.We are sure that our sgs2 has a lot more features then iphone. But when i use iphone(yes i have one sorry for this) i see that contacts and messaging applications open fast as lightning. Probably the phone and messaging applications are always in memory on iphone even at startup!.
On SGS2 when i open conctacs application, even if i press home button after a while (after one hour) when i edit contacts it waits about 2-5 seconds to open it.(i have more than 1000 contacts)
Is there a way to keep contacts app and messaging app always in memory ?(or it may be any other application too)
Thanks
I think that WanamLite would be great for your taste as it's based on stock Samsung ICS Firmware.
If you can live without that Sammy's phone app, then maybe you should try MIUI or it's derivates( WIUI, RGUI, cMIUI). It has stock camera app. And the rom itself is beautiful, fast and stable.
