The member Kolda_CZ was able to get the Google Dialer working on S6 without root permission, I tested it on my LG G4(H815) and so far it's working great!
here is the link to the original thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/themes-apps/app-google-dialer-t3323432#post65567454
Thanks for info. I installed it, it works great. I also installed google contacts, only problem is that when I click on some contact to see more info, I get contacts FC, any solution?
Sent from my LG-H815 using Tapatalk
works nice, thanks! also incall ui is working!
with a layers theme it is also possible to theme the dialer / contacts app. now i have a dark dialer again!
i hope we will see a dark theme for the rest of the ui anytime in the future. the available one do always have bugs with dark font on dark background.
I installed google dialer on my MM stock rom, and disabled the Contacts app (the LG app) from Titanium Backup. The dialer works flawlessly, and the no FC whatsoever when searching for contacts. Much much better than the LG dialer! I also kept the LG in-call UI because I like it better than the Google in-call UI.
Only thing is that I'm rooted and I installed the app manually by placing the apk files in the [app-priv] folder inside the [system] folder.
How do you replace the in-call ui? mine still with LG stock ui, how can i change it?

I am not on stock anymore but it is possible / done it myself in the past...
I believe you should go to settings / general / applications and there you have on upper right 3 dot menu. From there you can change the dialer (the same time you change in-call UI,
or,
on the same location go to Dialer.apk and you will have 3 dot menu on same location... Sorry, I don't remember anymore...

I downloaded the latest version and set it to my default dialer. I can't disable it the stock dialer since I'm not rooted, so I just changed the default dialer to the Google.

Try this:
Go to Settings > Apps > 3 dots (top right) > Configure Apps > Default Apps > Phone App and select the new app.
Now go to Settings > Apps > 3 dots (top right) > Reset default Apps and remove the old dialer
It needs just only phone numbers in the contacts as setting so you don't have emails etc under contacts like the older/original version

I successfully rooted my NT (thank you Indirect) and in setting up GoLauncher with its initial settings, it noted that there was a new "tablet" setting for the launcher which makes icons and such larger.
I hate this look.
Is there any way to change it back to the settings for a phone instead of having everything larger? I've scoured the settings to change it to the phone size, but can't find it. I thought I'd be able to uninstall it and reinstall it, but I can't even figure out how to do that.
can anyone help?
I know there is a setting, but I'm not near my NT to look. When Go Launcher updated on my NT a couple of days ago there was a pop up that said the location. I'll post back when I find it.
I use appmenu so i can manage the app. Then uninstall the update and from market i unflag the automatic update... Old version done

Yeah, I tried this, but it's not quite the same. I was really hoping for the phone sized option instead. Everything's scaled down and not just some of the icons.
Thanks for the suggestion though.
yes,I dislike that large icon neither
so I just reinstalled the old version
you can download it from their web

OK, dumb question then. How do i uninstall it? I've been using Uninstaller to uninstall apps off the tablet, but GoLauncher doesn't display in the list of apps. Is there somewhere else to uninstall it from?

you needn't uninstall the new one first
u go to market & search app u want to uninstall, choose it and u will see uninstall button
Ok, here is a pet project I've been working on, search didn't yield that anyone else had posted something similar.
Basically it adds another button on the Hybrid properties launch section, where you would see the different ui buttons, that contains color presets for more apps.
Includes:
Xda app (regular, pro, and tab) (dark theme)
Instagram
Netflix
Gmail
Flipboard
Ingress
Stock clock
Dropbox
Alarm Clock Xtreme
Evernote

If you have more color presets, feel free to post them and I'll add them in if they look right.
Flashable zip version: https://www.dropbox.com/s/nxbq57khasraqxx/Z_colors-2013-05-21.zip
Manual version: https://www.dropbox.com/s/oadn3izkqz1k805/Z_colors-2013-05-21.xml
For the manual version, copy the Xml to /system/etc/paranoid/preferences/
Set perm to rw-r--r--
Undo options
There is no one click method to get rid of the applied Zcolors without removing any other modifications you have made in the hybrid properties, this is a limitation of the Hybrid Engine. There are three ways I can think of off of the top of my head to revert these colors:
1. Go to Settings > Hybrid Properties > Apps, then click on the app you want to revert to stock, then click the reset icon (circle arrow with a dot in the middle). Repeat for each app.
OR
2. Using a file explorer, go to /system/etc/paranoid/ and open properties.conf. under ##SYSTEM PREFERENCES you will see a bunch of entries like "com.facebook.katana.colors="FFCBD2DF|B2FFFFFF|FFF FFFFF|FF5975B0|FFFFFFFF". Delete the lines for the apps you don't want the coloring on.
OR
3. Go to Settings > Hybrid Properties > Tools > Reset Properties. This will get rid of all Zcolors and any other modifications you have made to per app colors/dpi. If that doesn't bother you, then this will be the quickest easiest route.
Also, If after doing that, you want the Zcolor option to go away, you can go to /system/etc/paranoid/preferences/ and delete Z_Colors.xml. All my flashable file does is drop that XML in the right folder and set permissions correctly for it.

Do you have the one dated 2013-02-21, or -22?

The PA Hybrid color applier only shows the color configs for the apps you currently have installed.
It does apply all of the color changes to the properties.conf file though, so if you apply this and then install the app later, the coloring should still work.
appearently this is in the playstore ( the updated version) unfortunally can´t find it anymore. Anyone got a link?

If it's the ZColors, this is the most updated version, none of my work is in the playstore.
I can always add to it if you have requests, or fix it if something is broken.

My apologies, I confused it with something else. Thank you for your contribution, it´s much appreciated!
I noticed that when I for example open a (gmail)app where the top and bottem bar become white and I leave it for idle so it goes to the lock screen the bars remain white until I unlock the screen and close the app. Is this considered to be a bug? Could it be PA related?
I installed Z colors through the recovery menu, however I´m unable to revert back to the default stock colors. See: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2463398

could this mod also add the feature to list ALL numbers related to a contact when the name is dialed by t9?

Sorry, this is not easy to mod because in Dialer 4.4 when you click on dialpad button (does automatically my mod) other content is visible but, you can't directly tap on contact icon. It would require change a lot of things in Dialer app. After exams when I will have free time, I can try first modify Dialer app and then utilize it by Xposed MOD.

I don't understand what you mean by 'Flip to silent'. Full screen caller image you can activate in GravityBox or by Fullscreen CallerID Xposed MOD
Flip to silent means flipping the phone to silent the call. Yes, I know that full screen caller image is available in GravityBox, infact even Flip to Silent is there in GravityBox but for some reasons I don't wanna use GravityBox.

Customize Dialer?
Is there a way (preferably without root) to modify/customize the "in call" screen on the Galaxy S5. I am not talking about the Dialer App itself but the screen that comes up once you place the call. I want to be able to move the "end call" button from the top right spot to the top middle spot to make it easier to reach with either hand.

I got the Google dialer working on my S5... You need root and if you want to make any dialer fully 100% with out any use of the stock one, you need to do a lot more then just have the app in the priv-app folder. Once I've worked a few bugs out, I was going to either package it as a zip, or give it to a rom development or two to use as an add-mod to their rom(s).

Wondering if you can share the steps you followed to get GOOGLE DIALER working on the S5 ? I tried to install by putting in Piv Ap, changing permissions and rebooting - and no luck - it FC's when i try to launch it every time.
If you can share the steps you took to get it working - even if I have keep my original phone ap for taking calls and GOOGLE DIALER for making calls - that would still be cool -
If you think it is too complex and difficult, I understand - but if you can share what you did - that would be very cool -

Well.... So far:
The good
• App will open with no crashes or force closes
• Search will search your accounts for contacts and Google for people / businesses.
• You can place a call
The bad
• Samsung app is still used during a call.
• Samsung app is still used to receive a call.
• No contacts button
The Ugly
• Removing Samsung's in call app will still allow your calls to connect, but you get no GUI so you can't hang up.
• Removing Samsung's phone app (not being used anymore) will cause zero signal and two com.phone error popups on boot.
• Google Contacts FC when opening
Bonus: info on other Google/AOSP apps
The Google and AOSP SMS/MMS app can be used and fully replace the Samsung one. Why is this good news? Because those apps have the quick reply (popup when you get a message) Kind of like the iPhone but much better :victory: I have a few different themed versions and get some more and will do a post with the info (and credit where credit due) tomorrow.
The AOSP browser likes to FC
Other working apps: Calculator, Clock, Email (even exchange bypassed), File manager, torch, gallery, pretty much everything else besides phone and contacts... I'll add them to the same post as the messaging app tomorrow. (Will be flashable zips)
On good news... Once the CyanogenMod ROM is finished for S5, it will be MUCH easier for me to get the dialer and contacts working fully 100% on Samsung's touchwiz framework.... I had them working flawlessly on my S4 before I busted the LCD... Nothing beats touchwize framework with Google/AOSP apps and style :angel:

Other working apps: Calculator, Clock, Email (even exchange bypassed), File manager, torch, gallery, pretty much everything else besides phone and contacts... I'll add them to the same post as the messaging app tomorrow. (Will be flashable zips)
On good news... Once the CyanogenMod ROM is finished for S5, it will be MUCH easier for me to get the dialer and contacts working fully 100% on Samsung's touchwiz framework.... I had them working flawlessly on my S4 before I busted the LCD... Nothing beats touchwize framework with Google/AOSP apps and style :angel:

I dont usually use aosp apps but to let you know stock mms does have an option to enable pop up messages and includes a quick reply too.
For phone it does use both secteleservice (secphone) and incallui for the phone features. That is why deleting the teleservice resulted in no signal because that app basically does the phone signal and pre call functions while the incallui controls all incall functions. So you would need an app and probably libs to replace both.

You cant do it without root cause it needs to modify system apps.
If rooted it is possible. I themed mine like this which will be available in alliance roms next update

Any chance you can share that black Seccontact apk. Looks Great. I've been trying to theme it myself without much luck.

And where would the setting be for the popup with quick reply?
If you're thinking the quick response snippets, that's not the same thing. And looking at the settings for the stock MMS app (see attached screenshots) there is no pop-up setting or anything close to what the aosp/Google MMS app has
Hey Guys, so basically this guide is going to cover the fact of getting more performance/battery life out of your S8+ by running a more stock Android Like Experience.... Whether your like myself and prefer stock android over ****ty touch wiz or just want your device less debated and to perform smoother than this is for you!
For Starters I would like to point out that you will need to buy 1 app which has a 5 day refund policy if you do not like it.... So the reason this works without root is because u can disable apps now if you have the Exynos models with the root you will not need this app....
I have disabled Basically all of the Stock Samsung Apps and replaced with the following Google Apps.... Now the keyboard is SwiftKey however you are welcome to use the Google keyboard if you prefer it better.... You should install these before you download the. Xml below.... Now you cant get Google dialer or Google contacts off the play store so u must download it off XDA... The Reason we use Google version of these apps vs Samsung's pre-installed ones is because Samsung's apps tend to use more ram and Googles app set it basically what stock Android uses.... Nova Launcher is also a very stock Android Like launcher that myself and others prefer to use on all of our Android devices...

Once you have each of those we can move onto the next step... You will now need to download the app I mentioned before that you have to pay for. You can download that here
HTML:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ospolice.packagedisablerpro&hl=en
and the PD Engine from here
HTML:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mlsplit.samsungservice&hl=en
For this app it will tell you do download something called PD Engine so download that.... Once you load up the app u will need to give it administrator privileges that way it can disable all the apps.... After this is completed and u are on the main screen u can download the XML listed below this post to your phone, and in the Package Disabler Pro App click the 3 dots in the top right corner then click on import from XML and select the file you just downloaded from here. Go back to your home screen and you should see all the Samsung Apps missing as well as Device Maintenance missing from settings.... Note that Face Recognition and Iris is disabled so if you want those turned on read below. You may bow restart your device and you should feel the phone running a lot smoother especially when running multiple apps.... This gives you more of a Google Stock Android Experience for those like myself that prefer it over all the ****ty Samsung bloat apps.... All the Google Apps you download earlier are your replacement for the Samsung apps that are now disabled... Bixby has also been disabled so that button with no longer work, if you want that on look up Bixby in package Disabler pro and uncheck all the boxes...
Turn On Face/Iris Scanner
In the Package Disabler app search for these and uncheck the boxes
Iris
com.sec.factory.iris.usercamera
com.samsung.android.server.iris
Face
com.samsung.faceservice
com.samsung.android.bio.face.service
If you want to use Google Camera or Open Camera
Make sure to Disable com.sec.android.app.camera and the addons for the stock camera app being
com.sec.factory.camera
com.samsung.android.app.camera.sticker.facear.preload
com.samsung.android.app.camera.sticker.stamp.preload

That's right. I realized I had to open this in browser and highlight the link completely, and I finally did. Sorry for the inconveniences.

So far it's working with the app I use.

I'd love some blacked out Google apps. That's what I miss from when I had a rooted phone. This phone looks amazing with blacked out apps. Messages, Google, dialer, calendar and etc.
