I've done some searching but couldn't find anything.
Is it possible to port the HTC Dialer over to Cupcake builds such as Cyanogen 3.6.5?
I've seen the HTC Dialer on the Dude's Rogers rom, which isn't HTC, so it should be possible with the push of a view files.
Anyone got a clue what exactly needs to be changed?
Thanks!
The dialer depends on the framework much like the Music app. You would have to disassemble the classes.dex using JF's disassembling and reassembling tools. It's pretty much the same thing that Stericson did with HTCMusic. I believe *think* he's working on porting the HTC Dialer. You can drop him a PM or just follow his twitter

Im not a big fan of the video dialer on Dutty's Rom's. I attempted to replace it but no dice.
I would like the black dialer as shown here:
Tried installing cab, but after soft reset Dutty's red kaiser dialer still there.
Tried wiping out folders in registry HKLM/Software/HTC/PhoneCanvas and HKLM/Security/Phone/Skin and reinstalling cab and still no dice (Prolly shouldn't a done this but found these keys on the Athena form, so thought i would give it a try). Now Dutty's Kaiser dialer is gone, but with phone skin enabled or disabled shows standard dialer.
Any one replaced a video dialer skin with another video dialer skin? What am I doing wrong? Any hints?
* I have attempted several searches through the forms all turning up mostly goose eggs for swapping video dialer skins. I see no guides or wikis for this.
Poor xcuse for a BUMP!

C'mon someone out there knows where I should look for this answer... Someone has to have modded their video dialer. Should i try to ask about this in General?
I
Guess no has done this...
Too Bad! I'll do some more digging of my own on the topic. If anyone can think of anything at all, be sure to drop a line, I'll be more than happy to look in any direction that you may point me.
Thanks!
Saturday November 17 2007 update:
Note: Newer HTC models (HTC Tytn II / Kaiser and HTC Touch) have their own custom dialpads, these skins aren't suitable for them. Do not install! You might have to hard reset if you cannot remove these skins via remove in settings
I've been digging in this as well but no luck... I Bricket my device once or twice trying to solve this.
There's loads of dialer skins but most without or no working video.
The skin you found look awesome so if you get it working plz let me know.
@jamorgan2008
you can try before installing an alternative dialer following.
1. Set the key in the registry HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin\Enabled to "0" to disable video dialing function.
2. SoftReset
3. Install other dialer
4. SoftReset
5. That´s it
I had same issue on my Kaiser, but after that it works as expected

i tried to download the htc twitter and htc widget...installed with apps installer...i get an error trying to open htc twitter and there is no widget to be found to place on desktop...anyone tried these yet with some success?
this only works if your RUNNING the REAL HTC Hero ROM.
well that would make sense haha thanks...
Unfortunately, widget-apps like the Hero twitter widget are only possible with the Hero's slick new ui, which is nearly impossible to use without the entire Hero ROM. Some progress has been made porting said ROM to the Dream, but it's not for the faint of heart, it's for highly advanced users (ubergeeks beyond my skill) only, and don't do it on your primary phone.
quick question... and im sure ill get flamed for this, but i have to ask anyway... is there a specific reason that no one is working to develop the hero sys (peep, rosie, contacts, etc) to be compatible with the 1.6 framework???
There's a reason: it's frakking impossible. Seriously, all those apps are tied in to the HTC frameworks, making them near impossible to port to cupcake, let alon donut. I'm still amazed that we have HTC Music working on 1.5 :-O
I like just about almost everything about the vanilla ROM except the dialer. Default dialer doesn't have intelligent search and speed dial, i tried Dialer One, its better, but i am still more used to the sense dialer.. Soo.. i wanted to ask is there some sort of APK to get the Sense dialer?
I'm also interested for this I'm using the EzHero Rom and always when I'm calling I press "on hold" with my ear
This might do it - http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.shsh.android.atakephone
It's not free but is supposed to be good and has speed dial etc...
Doesn't have multilangual T9 like Sense, i am russian and most of my contacts are on russian and its pretty critical for me.
Next.
Dialer one will do it...has search etc
Once again, t9 is not multilangual, i had contacted developer about this and he said he have plans on how to implement this. Please note, the topic subject is not to find alternative, but rather integrate original sense caller into vanillarom.

I am interested as well if anything has come up yet.
Has anybody tried to pull Phone.apk and Contacts.apk from the ZTE Blade ROM? That has a Sense-like dialer, infact almost identical, just a copy. As it's a Vanilla ROM, it'll probably work with any of our CM 6.2 ROM's.
EDIT: Pulled the ZTE Blade/Orange San Fransisco Phone/Contacts/ContactProvider/TelephonyProvider apk's
http://db.tt/Qpx7qY3 - Phone.apk
http://db.tt/mrdDrCb - Contacts.apk
http://db.tt/OuZ4Gqq - ContactsProvider.apk
http://db.tt/F6o13dS - TelephonyProvider.apk
I'm not sure if these can be installed or not, as they are from an Android 2.1 build, maybe a bit of apk editing is needed.
Just install aDialer from market.
Same main features as dialer one but wayyyyyyyyy faster

Dialer2 is a really good dialer that only came out recently
DialerOne and NubDial are soooooo slow...
Youlu address book blows both out the water!
and basic answer - no, there is no way to get any of the sense apps like it's dialer to run in a non-sense rom.
you must use an alternative dialer as has been suggested. I love youlu
but I don't know about language stuff - you have to try them I guess.
After reading some weird ideas about not letting people who've posted less than ten times post i thought i better trawl the 'lesser' threads for something i can chip in to, just in case i need to ask a question or post in future...
so i was looking at dialers and i randomly found 'touchPal smart dialer' - free on the market, user interface is....okay actually, speed is...okay too. not that i have masses of experience but it also looks closer to the sense dialer than i've seen yet.
Might be a worth a look if you really miss the sense dialer.

Youlu Address Book (includes SMS/MMS app) and Dialer2 are my favourite. Both are pretty fast, good interface and have T9 search.
I'm feeling the Youlu Address Book love. I've tried most dialler's available and this one isn't perfect but seems overall the best for my needs.
Youlu is fast, but I wish it would be without the sms app. I will try the Dialer2 mentioned above, because DialerOne is too slow.
'TouchPal smart dialer' is def the way forward in my opinion. Has anyone else tried it?
it seems to be ever so slightly faster than dialer2 and the interface is nicer - more sense like.
1st of all in my previous post I've said aDialer when I've ment Dialer2, my mistake - mixed up the name.
2nd of all when I search market for touchpal I get 4 apps with chineese desc only. No comments on any app, no opinion no anything in the market app. Looks a bit scarry.

Sorry, cant quote the links, as I'm a 'bad' new user
And is there ANY Dialer, that is as quick as the Sense one? (and has smart dianling ) I'v tried most of the mentioned Apps in this thread, but all were way slower, than the Sense dialer... but as I want to get a custom Rom, I'm also looking for a replacement
Is there any way to replace the HTC dialer on a Sense ROM with the Vanilla dialer? Dialer One has a TON of flaws (can't even call 911, let alone program the phone with it) that the vanilla dialer doesn't. Thanks in advance!

Instead of search search search, why don't you read read read?
"This Metamorph theme will change the buttons on the HTC dialer and the Phone apks to look more like the vanilla dialer. After appyling, you will get a FC on the phone.apk, but then it will go away and everything will be fine."
All this does is skin the HTC Dialer to look like the Vanilla Dialer. What my question was is if you can replace the HTC Dialer with the Vanilla dialer, and yes, I did search, thank you. I have seen some posts saying that it isn't thought to be possible, but that doesn't mean it is, nor that someone may know something else.
Had you not been so short with the search comment, I would never be this short back, but thanks, anyways.

I can't remember now, but a while ago I used the contacts.apk and phone.apk from an aosp rom (don't remember which one) on a sense rom (not sure which one either, maybe it was Tainted Vanilla).
You can try ripping those apks from and eclair (not froyo) rom and seeing if they work, or download the old Tainted Vanilla rom (maybe even one of the new ones) and see which dialer they use.

Ahh, maybe that was the issue. I tried pulling them from a Cyanogen ROM (I think) and it didn't work. I'll give her a shot. Thanks!
