Tried Callapp because I liked the look but had to uninstall because it clashes with the stock dialer. Callapp says this is a problem with HTC phones and they don't have a solution yet. Is there any way to disable the stock dialer so it doesn't try to answer the call? Or, does anyone have a better suggestion for an app that looks as good but plays nice? Thanks in advance!

You could try a MIUI or CM9 Rom? Im using the latetest MIUI and its very nice. It has the camera app of sense 3.6 so 3d works too.
Probably too late, but if someone else encountered this problem:
CallApp's latest couple of versions fixed a lot if call screen issues, especially for HTCs.
In CallApp settings go to 'Call-screen' under Customize and uncheck 'Full screen' (This is different from the 'medium' settings that was before). This gives you a floating window during incoming calls and the underlying phone buttons are enabled. Note you can resiae this screen by dragging the little handle below the floating window.

Missing apps:
Flashlight
The genie widget that was on the sense4 port for the 3d. Was themed to match perfectly.
I would very much like these apps.
The keyboard.
Everytime I use something that brings up my keyboard, I get a select input method notification..won't go away??
Also, does anyone have issues with the xda app randomly freezing? It did this on the one x as well.
Thanks for any info

Someone posted the flashlight app but you should be able to find it in the HTC hub. Also, the keyboard input notification comes with ICS, as far as I know there's no way to disable it without some sort of mod but check your settings maybe it got added in =)

Actually the HTC hub is different now? It used tobe an area just for HTC apps/plugins and now it seems like somewhat of an alternate market? I can't find any HTC widgets/apps?
In the hub goto applications - categories - HTC essentials

The HTChub on my EVO LTE does not allow me to go to Applications - Categories. When I click on "Applications" it loads a page with about 20 apps, all non-HTC, and doesn't give me any options for categories. When I go to Edit Tabs, it just lists one "Featured".
Anyone else have this issue? I really just want the flashlight app. I use it to much, It has always been a shortcut on my lockscreen.
Try downloading Quick Shortcut Maker from the Play Store. You will be able to find many apps HTC has hidden and make shortcuts to your home screen.

Yeah, that's really wacky. They must have changed it recently. You used to be able to get more apps that were from htc. Now it is stuck on just the featured apps and the htc flashlight is no longer in there.
Hey guys! I've recently started using Fourth Bar Jellybean (and by far the most impressive desensed ROM yet), however there are a few bugs I've noticed that desensed ROMs all tend to have and I was wondering if there would be any fixes for the following:
Google Play music turns the wallpaper on the lockscreen black and doesn't show any music controls
HTCLinkifyDispatcher.apk tends to screw things up. For instance, if I click a link to YouTube it will take me to the browser page instead of the YouTube app. If you delete or rename HTCLinkifyDispatcher this fixes the issue, however in chat clients such as imo, IM+, or Google Talk, clicking a link will crash the app.
Those are the most prominent bugs that I can think off right off the top of my head. Like I said, Fourth Bar Jellybean did a REALLY fantastic job of desensing the ROM, but a couple of HTC Sense bugs still remain.
Let me know what you guys think - is there a fix for any of this?
Thanks!
If Rom devs changed their base to a telus base the link issue would be fixed all round without the need to modify anything, the Google music part I'm not sure of since I don't use it.

I think the google music doing that has something to do with the theme. It's not playing nice I'm most likely a bug. I remember flashing a theme and some music controls weren't showing up but they were there since I knew where they were I clicked. Are yours still function?

This thing though is that it's not really a theme, I think it's an issue with the lockscreen itself. Come to think of it, it seems like EclipzeRemix got his to work in his Project Butter ROM. Maybe the apk can be extracted from it and reflashed/replaced in Fourth Bar?

It's worth a shot, don't ya think? Better to try and fail that to sit doing nothing until your rom dev fixes the issue, though I do think it may be a system issue, tried updating the app itself?
I always believed that one of the biggest benefits of going to 1280x720 is that we should finally be rid of app compatibility problems.
Anyone still having problems with any apps? Since we are S3 resolution identical now, I assume this list should be close to nil.
Anyone trying apps that didn't work before? Horn, for example, just totally crashes on the Note 1.

Same on my note. I bought it yesterday when it was on sale for 25cents, but looks like I got taken! Does nothing but immediately crash on my note 1, fully stock, unrooted running the latest ICS firmware (LRT). Sad times.
I can't even download Horn on my n7100. It says incompatible.
I think Horn is Tegra 2/3 only. It says optimised for, but isn't compatible with any of my devices.
Hey guys,
anyone tried to use apex on the note2? (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.anddoes.launcher)
It seems to stutter a little bit. Can anyone proof that, or is it just my device? Using 4x5 lines on 4 screens, so nothing special.
Also the search bar from google is white, when I swipe from screen to screen, but when it stops, it gets gray.
Good news is swiftkey doesn't know if it's a tablet or a phone. I can use phone or tablet version (bought both).
Unfortunately swype beta seems a bit laggy for me. What text input do you use?
Anyway, best device I've hold in my hand!
Didn't have a crazy experience with apex either.
I actually uninstalled it and went back to twlauncher =/

osu!droid stutters very badly if you disable the internal music player (which you'd need to do to play songs with .ogg files)
tap sonic freezes for the first 10 seconds in a song, and then jumps ahead and plays without sound.
touchmix graphics don't line up with the touch detection so you have to tap above the buttons, it's worst in the lower half of the screen.
touchmix fx freezes when you start it, you need to press home and launch it again to unfreeze.
It seems that SketchBook Pro cannot be installed on this device. that makes me a sad puppy.

Nova Launcher works great but
You lose S Pen pop up (no big deal because you can just click on the app.)

You only lost the auto-go to special homescreen of twlauncher but you still get the auto smemo popup
Tried again. Get notification in status bar but no pop up. S pen setting to open pop up window was not checked. Works now.

okay i purchased nova launcher from the sale last week... and its been fighting with sense non stop, every time i leave an app/screen/etc it asks me which launcher i want sense or nova, even when i click for it to use this one all the time it still pops up after closing another app 10 minutes later.
ive tried uninstalling and re installing nova and still get this issue..
has anyone else had this sorta problem?
Set is a default when it ask again. There will be a prompt on the bottom to put a check mark on it. Then select Nova.

hrmm stock browser? or launcher you mean?
which of all the sense apps under applications would i clear?
*edit*
okay only one lets me clear and both let me force stop...
i assume one is for widgets and one is for launcher of the two.. the one i assume is the sense launcher one has a disable option... wondering if thats possibly safe to disable if im running nova..
After you set Nova as default go into Settings > Apps > All Apps and find HTC Sense and try to disable it.
If you're rooted and don't use the stock launcher at all, try this - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1895544
I found it a couple weeks ago and haven't had any issues with it at all.

Nice ill have to look into it, I hit the 'disable' on htc sense in the apps list and rebooted and forced the other 'HTC sense' one to shut down.. now only one appears and the disable button is grey'd out.. but still randomly.. not all the time i get the prompt on which launcher i want.....
doing this just to keep busy until the radio stuff is figured out and a CM 10 fully working or something like that comes out..
so far ive tweaked up the lock screen with widget locker and tasker to let me start camera app with out actually unlocking my phone, it returns to a locked state when camera pp is exited. now im looking into trying some things like this http://mycolorscreen.com/2012/09/26/xui-v2/
Hello, I searched but didn't find an answer to this one. So here goes.
I'm not a fan of the TouchWiz dialer app in the standard ICS ROM. I've tried out some dialers from the Play Store and find that I can use them... but once a number is dialed the ancient 2.x-looking dialer reappears for the duration. Any solution?

Is your phone rooted? If it is you could probably flash a .zip for a different dialer.
Hope this helps
Thanks!

Thanks for the response, I haven't rooted yet; I'm not a total newbie when it comes to rooting as I've done it for some previous phones. I haven't taken the leap because I'm wary of losing the ability to upgrade when the official JB ROM arrives (fingers crossed).
That being said.... Perhaps I'll go for it and permanently lose the 2009-looking dialer once and for all!
Thanks again!
Hey
I would re-commend using, dialer one. It's a great surprisingly for a third party app
the dialer and the phone are two seperate things. no matter what dialer you use after dialing it is always going to go back to stock phone. third party apps take the place of contacts.apk but calls are handled by phone.apk. you will have to flash a rom with a themed phone.apk or aosp based to get the change you want.
Good to know. I'm really puzzled by how dated parts of the UI are. When my Note arrived back in August I had to do a double take. From the dark background behind shortcut names on the homescreen to the green and grey dialer I thought Gingerbread was still lurking about somewhere. I use Nova Launcher pro to make most things look like ICS but it looks like I'll have to root and flash to finish the job. For some reason it really me.
Thanks to all for the help.
