I have one main problem with my Rezound: I can't stand the Sense dialer/contacts/sms setup. I love the ASOP dialer/contacts setup. I've been trying several different ASOP ROMs but it seems like all the ASOP ROMs have a problem with Bluetooth calling/voice. The Sense ROMs have working Bluetooth but they all have the Sense dialer.
I've also tried all the dialer replacement apps that I can find in the Play Store but nothing is as clean and simple is the ASOP dialer.
Anyone have any idea how I can get the ASOP dialer and working Bluetooth calling/voice on my Rezound?

its one of the few remaining issues with AOSP and it is being worked on. Very tough cookie to crack
Any movement on the ASOP/Bluetooth calling issue?

Our few aosp devs are all working on jb right now. But I'm sure at least a few are still trying to resolve the bluetooth issue, but progress seems slow. It will probably be the main focus once all the major bugs are worked out of jb

Would it be possible to use the contact and dialer from an AOSP rom on a sense rom. I tried using the ones from CM7 and am having some issues.
Edit: I figured it out and have AOSP contacts and dialer now working on a Sense 3.0 Rom incase anyone wants it!
Not saying I particularly want it but why offer it but share no information on how to do it?

I did it that way because I didn't make the mod. The thread started out because I was having issues getting the AOSP contacts and dialer to work on my phone, so I was looking for help. After I figured it out I thought I would see if anyone was intreasted in this mod and I can send them the file or explain how they can get them. I used the contacts from CM7 which includes the dialer. If you use the dialer.apk from CM7 it will break your phone, Kills signal / service. I have the contacts pulled from that Rom if anyone wants it. I take no credit for it in any way.
im Interested!!! Hate the Rosie Dialer!!
I have a Rogers GSm version, dont know if that would affect anything
Here is the contacts apk. It is NOT flashable through recovery. Install using a file manager (like Astro) I did not create this so I take no credit for this. This came from CM7.

This is interesting. Many people including myself have wanted to have the option to integrate the aosp dialer/ contacts into a sense based rom since the good old Hero days but based on the way the two are integrated into Sense roms as a whole, this has never been possible.
I can't remember the technical reasons why, only that many concluded it wasn't much of a possibilty.
Anyway, if anyone else can confirm that we can now have these features integrated into Sense as the op states, that would be awedome.

There are a few issues with using the ASOP contacts with a sense rom. For instance joining contacts will cause a FC. I run a customized rom with as much sense removed as possible. To achieve this I have modified the ASOP contacts to work better on sense. I've never released the modified contacts because I don't have time to support it. The features I use work fine now (for instance the join fc is fixed) ; however, I'm sure there are other issues and at the moment I have no time to resolve anything found.
If people are willing to live with what you get is what you get I can post my modified contacts tonight after work.
HtcDialer still needs to be installed. I can also post a version of this modded to hide the icon from the app drawer and to stop it from being used for certain functions (a convenience feature so I don't have to select the ASOP contacts as the default)

Hi Everyone,
I am on Omega rom and it's pretty nice. But, like every Samsung based rom, there are some things that bother me, the main thing is the lag when opening the dialer and the gallery. It can take sometimes up to 3 seconds for these apps to open when they haven't be launched in a while. Since the CM10 based rom still have some bugs which are crucial to me (no wifi & bluetooth tethering), I am sticking with the Samsung based roms.
My questions are:
1. Is there a way to flash the original AOSP dialer and gallery?
if there isn't,
2. Is there a way to prevent the dialer & gallery from closing?
Thanks a lot, I really hope someone can offer some good advice here.

i dont know the answers to your 2 questions.. but bluetooth tethering does work on CM10 based roms. wifi tethering is broken but wifi itself works just fine.
Yeah, I just saw that BT tethering is finally working, but wifi tethering is still broken... and I use that pretty often...

I am running an AOKP rom, Sense XP and I thinks that rom is the tits right now for my usage. However, I can't get gifs in tumblr to work. I cleared app data and such, but that wasn't the answer as it's still not working. I was a few Sense roms before that(Newt 4.0 and business sense 4.0) and they worked correctly. I am wondering is this an AOKP on Rezound issue, or just isolated between a few users?

It's not a true Sense rom. The sense part of it is just a theme. Not sure how to fix your problem though.
I kno that, my previous rom was sense, i didnt have issues with gif on that rom, but this sense xp rom I have gif issues in tumblr. so yeah.
i was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for this scenario:
i recently switched over from an iphone 5 - i'm running the latest MeanBean and pretty happy with everything for the most part.
two things i miss from the iphone:
- access to a "quick camera" from the lock screen (even if i dock the camera app, i have to unlock my phone before the app will open)
- gmail and handcent SMS notifications on the lock screen
i know it's possible to just drag the notification panel down from the lock screen, but it's slightly less elegant. i'd like to be able to turn my screen on, glance at any new texts or e-mails, and turn it back off. to clarify, the only reason i'm using handcent is because i need group messaging (MMS) functionality, which android 4.1 doesn't properly support. i know the Sense productivity lockscreen supports the native SMS app.
the frustrating part is that android 4.2 gives me the lockscreen widgets i'm looking for (and the group messaging too!), but none of the 4.2 ROMs out there have a camera app that measures up to the Sense one. it's literally the only reason i'm using a Sense ROM.
any suggestions?
gonna try rephrasing my question to see if anyone has any advice:
1) what's your favorite Android 4.2 ROM with working Bluetooth?
2) my dad started complaining about the font size on the iphone 5, so i have a feeling he's going to want this phone back. what's a good daily driver for a non-power user? i was thinking MeanBean

Either stock rooted or stock with goodies... Cm 10.1 is not too complicated either... Pure AOSP android...

Currently I'm running CM10.1 "cm-10.1-20130304-EXPERIMENTAL-jewel-M2", and it works fine with Bluetooth.
It does, however, have issues with GPS and MHL/Hdmi. I was able to get the GPS working correctly after discovering this workaround. I haven't yet been able to fix MHL/Hdmi support, though.

i don't really use MHL or HDMI, so this should work fine. thanks!
I have paranoid 3.1 now. GPS just basically never works now. Is there a ROM that GPS works consistently?
I need to keep 2 different calendars updating on my phone, both of which are Google calendars. Seems like JB 4.2.2 doesn't them update independently anymore. 4.1 did digical & aCalendar. Any ideas as to what combo of calendar programs will work?

AOSP-wise GPS is a problem for a lot of people. Try a TW-rom, specifically something on a VZW base like Beans or Multi. Or search for one of the hundred million GPS fixes to see if any do the trick. Don't know about the calendars.
I've tried a few of the GPS fixes but can't even get a fix on a satellite. If I get more consensus on TW based ROM i 'all try that. Going to be in an areaiI have never been before next week so I must have GPS working

Well a VZW-based TW rom would be as close a guarantee on GPS as you can get. GPS is so weird on our models, every ROM seems to be hit and miss for people.
MeanBean ICE (which is actually on a N7105 or international base) and Beans seem to have the most amount of people with GPS locks. Try out any of the TW roms and see what you like, my experience has always been that once I get that first GPS lock that takes awhile, it connects pretty instantaneously.
If you're looking for a TW rom that has AOSP looks (let's be honest TW is ugly) try Beans (already AOSP themed), Tweaked or CleanROM (with the AOSP theme in the Themes/Apps section), or Alliance (optional AOSP theme in OP or built-in with novella patch).
