So since moving to Froyo with both OTA builds I am happy to use Voice Dialer via my headset...
However I would be happier if I didn't get an error about Voice Dialer having to close unexpectedly.
Anybody else getting this issue?

I hate to bump this, but this still happens.
To add to this issue, typically I can use my headset (now I use a BlueAnt T1) and press the MFB to start the process and can actually dial out, but can only do it once. Everytime after that, Voice Dialer FCs.
Am I missing something?

From my own experience with MLIGN, KingxKx, Micro_Hero, JACxHero, and Modaco, and from what I've been able to dig up around this forum, applications that use the intercept outgoing call feature (such as GV, or google voice dialer, or a calling card application) do not work properly. Calls made through the HTC dialer do not get intercepted.
I've tried wiping, reformated ext partition and reinstalling the apps. I've tried using GV, google voice dialer, and multiple calling card apps. none work. All the apps require intercepting the outgoing dial.
People have reported a work around using the HTC_people widget, but I don't think that is a practical work around for making daily calls.
Does anyone know of a Hero ROM that "intercept outgoing call" applications works with? Personal experience would be appreciated.
OR
Does anyone know of an application, that works to intercept calls made from HTC dialer?
UPDATE: to get a hero-esque dialer on a non hero rom, try using acontacts. or use the call-back feature included with GV/GoogleVoice.
Try using call-back in GV app. I have used quite a few Hero roms, and usually don't have a problem getting the dialer to route calls through GV. It only has trouble using direct dial as the call method. Call-back adds the extra step of having to answer the call, but it lets you use the htc dialer.
Thank you very much. I feel kind of silly having completely forgot about the call-back feature. I will be sure to remember that next time I switch into a Hero rom.
For now, I am staying with CM 4.1.999 and using acontacts as my dialer, it's not as nice as Hero dialer tho.
Hi,
I have the skype app installed, I use it occasionally, and start it up manually when I need it.
Never had any problem with it, until recently -
I flashed my phone's ROM, and re-installed my apps, I'm not sure if I downloaded an update for the skype app or not.
Ever since I'm with the new setup, every time I try to dial someone, a window pops up and asks me if I want to use the default android dialer or 'SkypeOut', without any 'use this as default' checkbox...
this is extremely annoying!
anyone else experienced this problem?
I dont want/need any pop-ups from skype, especially not when I dial someone...
Ideas? Anyone?
Thanks in advance!
Can anyone recomend an offline (I mean without connecting to Google Voice) application for voice dialing. I believe starting from Android 2.2 it is supported.
I've just installed NAND HDFI rom by gauner1986 if it is relevant.
I am looking for an application where I just press button on my bluetooth headset and say the contact name to dial. If the app can read aloud new SMSs and emails it's even better .
I actually found an application Choice Dialer Plus which does the dial via bluetooth with one problem though. I cannot launch the app with my bluetooth handset button. I have to touch the phone to launch the app and then will give command to dial.
I know my handset works alright as I just upgraded from WM6.5 where I had Microsoft voice commander.
It looks I am missing something in the android.
Do I need another application which can listen to the handset or I need something else installed to the android?

You can try my app. It works offline. Application is named VoiceButton. You can find it in GooglePlay.
I think this is what you need.

Thank you, Denis.
My question was from 2011, LOL.
I don't have the HD2 anymore but thank you anyway.
I'm having a nasty problem with the bionic. When I'm on a call and get a call waiting, I get the force close msg "com.android.phone". If I hit force close, it drops the call I was on immediately. If I just let it sit there, I get about 5 to 10 seconds and it drops the call anyway. Also noticed it drops all connections (up on the status bar) when this happens.
Another (maybe related) issue is I've never been able to view my call log from the standard dialer tab. I installed a 3rd party dialer and the call log is there, just not working at all on the standard dialer. To be more specific, the Dialer, Contacts, and Favorites tabs all work fine, but the Recent tab just shows a drop down (and no data beneath it).
Any help will be greatly appreciated...I'm rooted but don't think I have a backup of the dialer.apk or the phone.apk (?).
I'm rooted also. Had a call waiting call earlier without this issue. I would check what bloat ware you've removed. I don't think its a problem with the dialer apk.

I didn't remove or freeze any bloat...mainly do root to use titanium backup.
Looks like there is an issue when using Google Voice and this phone . I get the error "call not sent limit exceeded". Blu support said that they are aware of the issue. Basically instructed me to get another dialer on the play store :laugh:. I tested a few dialers and only the Hangouts Dialer app worked.
Same issue seen on the Blu Pure XL.
Happens on the blu advance 5.0 too even after the Blu software update :-/ . Will try the hangouts dialer.
Same issue with BLU Energy XL
Hey guys,
The same issue is found on the BLU Energy XL. Just bought one for my wife and this drives her crazy since it forces her to use WhatsApp for calls which burns through data.
I've found two fixes for this, but they only seem to be temporary:
1. Restart your phone.
2. Open your phone settings, go into the Apps, and view All apps list, then scroll down to Dialer or Phone (depending on which you have), then clear all data within the Dialer/Phone app.
Once again, these are solutions found using Google and they seem to only be temporary since the problem comes back after calling 2-3 people afterwards. I'm still searching for a permanent fix, perhaps someone can try replacing the Dialer/Phone app with an older version apk? I can't do this since it's my wife's phone, but if someone tries it please post your results!
Yes, This is a problem and it's annoying. I take the following steps and it works 9/10 times, for the 1 time it doesn't work, I just restart the phone.
1. Dial a 1800- number. This way the phone call will go through and register in the cache. ( I usually dial Customer Service)
2. Dial the other number you wanted to call using Google Voice.
Please note: I use Google Voice to only dial international numbers. (That's the option setting in Google Voice)
Anyone found a permanent fix for this?
I believe you can use only the native dialer app for Google voice calls to work.
