I will like first than any other thing to apologize if you are reading this and you thought finaly a multi DPI stock dialer aviable, sorry i dont have it. I needed a title to guet some readers to see it. Second for my really bad speling.
This post has been created whit one goal:
¡¡¡¡¡MULTI DPI STOCK SAMSUNG DIALER!!!!!
I have scouted xda forums for weeks to guet one, but this mod just... DOES NOT EXIST.
I have seen this request on replies, new threats, but no one single developer has responded to this call.
If YOU reader support this threat, i will sent a pm to your inbox once i guet one.
Now I will place here what WE are asking for:
1. Multi DPI samsung stock dialer
Yes we know there is an stock ics dialer and contacts, some android market apps whit multi dpi aviable free or paid, but we dont want that.
Well that is the reason of this post, but I have seen what people belive, is the PERFECT dialer:
1. Multi DPI samsung stock dialer
2. AutoRotate disiable
3. Full screem picture
4. ICS compatible
5. Record call aviable
And going a little bit more... demanding. If a developer decides to guet on this heroe path, on the SAMSUNG STOCK contacts app, the ability to unite more than five accounts to one contact.
Hopefully a great xda dev will become the heroe and provide the apk that many are looking.

Hello,
As my sister is visually impaired, i was searching for magnification tools on an android device.
Her problem is that when she writes a text, she can't see what she's typing because it's too small.
Actually, a fully magnified android interface would be great, but I don't know if it exists...
She has no device yet, because we don't want to spend money for a one she can't use.
So if you know a device that integrates such features, or some usefull apps for visually impaired people... (She don't want screen readers, also).
And well, if an iPhone or a Windows Phone is better, you can say it
Thanks,
Fabien
ps : sorry for my english, i'm french
You could just get a large android device (e.g. Samsung Galaxy Note).
Well, i have a HTC Sensation, and it's not better, because the font size is adapted to the large resolution...
As someone who is in the same shoes, I highly recommend Handcent SMS. Completely adjustable font sizes on every single thing. I love it. No more eye strain or anything.
Handcent SMS is definitely a good option as you can easily customize the text size.
If you root the phone (not for everyone) you can adjust the DPI that will affect every app on the phone. You can see the effects in some of the images here: bit.ly/vfhzHn
So, i've searched a little on the market, and here is what i've found :
- Launcher 7 (for big icons on the launcher, and for its simplicity)
- Handcent SMS (all font magnified)
- DW Contacts (in order to magnify the list of contacts and the dialer)
All this apps helped a lot for my sister, but if you see how I can improve...
Thanks !

^Else if you have a device which has CyanogenMod7 in it, then you may simply use Spare Parts to increase the overall font size.
I guess it is also available in the market for other ROM's as well, not sure about that!

It is available: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.droidgram.spareparts&feature=search_result. Another usable app is LCD Density Changer: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.beansoft.lcd_density_changer&hl=en.
this is my solution
I made a app these days and now i published it on market
it is called ScreenZooM. Search for it (icon is a magnifier with a big green +)
i will atach a qrcode image

Hi all,
is it possible to display new whatsapp messages directly on lockscreen? (like on ios? Display lights up if new message comes in and i can read message directly on lockscreen, thats what I want.
Bought some apps but nothing works fine :-(
Sorry for my poor Englisch...
For directly showing message on lock screen it depends on the ROM I think.
Is there any rom for my desire hd available?
I am using virtous quattro with ics at the moment.
You need to post this there.. I don't have desire. So, can't say.
I think widget locker is what you need. I use handcent for sms, and it gets through the lockscreen just like you describe.
Sent from my DROID3 using XDA App
The lockscreen code is either part of the framework.jar or the systemui... and if the device is not rooted, you cannot change it.
If you are a programmer, what you could try is to create a new window (for example with the WindowManagerImpl hidden class) trying different window types: window types define the layer where the window will be placed. For some window types you might need some special permission (for example I think TYPE_SYSTEM_OVERLAY will be placed above lockscreen, and it needs the SYSTEM_DIALOG permission)
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
Currently there isn't an (lockscreen-)app that allows that. If you are a programmer you can always try to make it yourself, like mentioned above. But be warned, it's going to be a hell to create it
I´m not a Android programme
There is an option in the settings of whatsapp "turn on the pop up messages" check that box n u are good to go
i know this option, but it´s still behind the lockscreen...
Hey guys!!
This pop-up message, allows you to answer the message even with the lock screen. I think it's a lack of security because anyone can answer it if you forget your phone somewhere.
I've already try to talk with the developers of Whatsapp, but with no success.
On iphone you can only read and unlock to answer.
That's right, the popup feature when set to 'always' or 'only when screen off' shows messages and I think even allows replying from the lockscreen. You can't go view the full convo without unlocking though. This is the way it works at least in the latest beta from http://www.whatsapp.com/android/

Hey all, I'm hoping you can help me with something.. I'm running Cyanogenmod 10 on Samsung Galaxy S2 I9100 International version. When I call someone the call screen will have a huge photo on it and my photos are all small so they look terrible. I had it before with certain roms (not cyanogenmod) that the call screen would have a few options on it (like Gingerbread rom) and a small window for photos which meant the pictures were a decent size and looked great.
My question is, can I change settings in JB that will allow the small window to appear or do i have to install another stock dialer or such.
Sorry if I'm not explaining myself well...
Kindest Regards

Jelly support hd contact photos (256x256) which is pretty cool.
All you have to do is update your contact pictures manually or do it with this app, HD Contact Photos
Thanks for your quick reply. The app will be a big help, but we're would the photos be stored, since I've added the photos I've since forward the phone.
Hi,
im using cm10.1 at huawei g300 and im missing some feature in stock sms app - maybe it's strange, but i really like it, it's simple and has almost all features which i need. Almost. I have problem with sending sms to a group, i have to write concacts separately, and there is no other way to do this. Below is screen from other (also stock?) sms apk (the dark one) and there is a "people" button, after click u can choose from your contacts more than one person.
In my phone it look's like at attached screenshoot - im missing button in place which is marked with red almost-circle. So is it possible to get that "people" button? Something in settings or maybe modded app? I couldn't find anything. And the reason why i don't have that button atm - it's because of CM rom or just google has removed it or...?
Thanks in advance for answers ("Install Go-sms/chomp/handcent." is not the answer - i know that way:>)
Sorry for my english
And sorry, if wrong section.
Android versions 4 and below had no support for emojis. Jelly Bean came along with some improved support using font like smileys which were completely indecipherable on a small screen phone.
Now, with Kitkat, Google has incorporated some better support for smileys that are, for the first time, actually usable.
However, what I feel is that the Whatsapp smileys are really better looking as compared to the Kitkat ones. The Whatsapp smileys have, sort of, become the default form of smileys for the respective ones. And the google smileys, be it JB or KK ones, look more like a side-variant to the default-whatsapp ones.
So what I want ask is whether is it possible to replace the KK smileys with whatsapp looking like ones. I believe it must be possible because both KK and whatsapp smileys are image ones. So if the image files of KK smileys are replaced with correclty resized whatsapp smileys, wouldn't it be possible to achieve it?
Further, some skilled and interested dev may make a CWM flashable zip out of it, that may be used with many devices. Obviously, that would be possible, only if the images in most ROMs are stored in some standard place and in a standard resolution, etc.
I am no developer and may be completely wrong. Any person knowledgeable enough to shed some light on my query as to whether it is actually possible?
Here, now that I've asked it... Please reply and let my itch go

Well, as a good XDA user, I did start with a search. But could not find any relevant result.
Going forward, the link you gave is of a Kitkat keyboard, backported to ICS. However, what I want is completely diffrerent.
Let me attempt to explain it in another manner.
See the screenshot below..
All across the Kitkat ROM, emojis would appear as (2). Be it stock messaging app, notification bar etc.
I want them to be replaced by images in (1)
I want it the other way around that the ugly Whatsapp emoticons get replaced by the awesome Google ones.

We're two, man! I love KK emoticons and looking for a way to replace whatsapp ones with those
It should not be difficult but will take some time.
1. Locate where the system emojis are. You can open the APKs as you would with ZIP files. I expect to find them in the framework.
2. Copy the system APK in which the emojis are to your computer.
3. Download Whatsapp.apk and extract the emojis from it.
4. Compare the resolution of whatsapp emojis to the ones in the system. Modify the ones from whatsapp and make sure they are similar to the system.
5. Rename whatsapp emojis so that they have the same name as their corresponding ones in the system apk .
6. Overwrite the ones in the system with the ones from whatsapp.
7. Flash the modified APK using an Update Flashable ZIP.
But a better way would be using Xposed but I'm no dev and don't know how to create Xposed Modules.
Good Luck

Ignore my earlier answer. It turned out that the emojis are stored in a new font of a new format. Check out:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2563757
You can overwrite the emojis file with the one in that thread
