i understand that the phone.apk is part of the Android OS,here is what i would like help with:
replace stock [Dialer/caller id/Contacts] with RocketDial pro.
Phone is rooted on Froyo 2.2 samsung captivate.
I move the app to /sysytem/app and chmod it Then use Tibu to freeze the stock phone app
--->didnt work & force close...Any ideas? Thanks
Froyo? Really?
1. Froyo has Samsung dialer, not Google Android Dialer.
2. No need to do any changes to use third party dialer. Just make it default. I'm using slow and awkward DialerOne on ICS, didn't do any changes to ROM/OS.
How u make new dialer+caller id+contacts the default? Plz be explicit about the steps. (I like rocketDialer pro...
Thanks

There are plenty of Contacts apps as well. But you should talk to developer of you dialer.

Hi,
I'm running Topogigi's 1.7 with Go Launcher, but Stock Locker.
I substituted the Stock Contacts with the Go Contacts.
Now when I lose a call the messagen in the Locker wont disapeer.
Does any one have an ideia of how to remove it?
Thanks

You have to freeze stock phone app add even if you use another contact app the stock one runs in background. Use titanium or antek app manager.
The stock app is not running because I deleted it from the /System/app folder...
I went to see the app's running, and it does not appear...
Any other ideas?
Thx
Any one? No ideas?
What we have here is my first rom that i made for myself,but i want to share.
I just started to learn programing and the android platform is a tool for me to learn
so what i did here was just made for me but i think there is room for one more dish from the kitchen, so here we have it
This is built on v20g official (new baseband!!!!!!)
Rom fetures: Almost everything what the kitchen has to offer(deoxed,busybox,a2sd.....)
- Power menu (recovery and reeboot added)
- Latest Franco_kernel 2.6.35.14
- wifi fix
- Enabled jit an heapsize to 48mb and some build.prop hacks ;-)
- And some other things i can not remember
- Theme made by me and UOT Kitchen(a very big tanks to those guys)
- lg buttons from Lg 2x by: bioan. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1040012
Apps -Adao file manager
-Battery Calibration (you can uninstall after calibration)
-Browser
-Calendar
-Camera (themed camera that i found somewhere.I don't know who themed it but big thanks to him/her)
-Clock
-Miui Compass
-Fm radio
-3D Gallery
-Gmail
-Go Contacts (removed lg stock contacts)
-Go SMS (removed lg stock sms app)
-Google search
-Market
-Miui Music
-MultiPicture Live Wallpaper
-News and weather
-QQlauncher
-Voice Search
-Youtube
-Wireless Tether for root users (i am having problems built in tether)
Bugs: - The only bug i know of is the built in wifi tether
edit: Sorry there is one more bug. In Go sms when you try to push the + button it loads and loads.
So when adding just type the first letter or number and the xt9 will do the rest (this will be my next problem to understand and solve!)
- For transparent statusbar use MultiPicture Live Wallpaper or a launcher that suports it
Big thanks! to the xda comunity
to Franco for his perfect kernel
to ciox for good tips and howto
to untermensch for his power menu howto. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=811532
to everyone i forgot
p.s I changed some icons in some apps(go contacts and go sms and others just for fun).
They will go back to default if/when you uppdate via market.
So basicly this is just another official GB kitchen cooking with some tweeks and hacks. just with another flavor
Download link with GO: http://www.multiupload.com/4N5IM4FX5A
Original contacts and sms apk for those who want (install with root explorer or something and change permission and restart)http://www.multiupload.com/NL2VFCCUSD
Due to popular demand here you go but no go (removed Go Contacts and sms and added Stock apk´s) http://www.multiupload.com/APVVIMU4AC
Nice work bro
Theming is brilliant
You can try and compile a flashable ZIP to enable other stock lg GINGERBREAD users to patch this theme
Thumbs Up..!!

Same happened with me dax, removing stock dailer will prevent you from getting into dialer via any other 3rd party app,and it keeps force closing ...

no problems here! no fc no freze
tested and tested over and over,just try it
every time i tried a new version of this rom(wich has only had the go contacts all the time) i did a full wipe (formatt system ect.) to be shure that i don´t have something still under there that makes it run. So IT WORKS!

Wow...i will see your rom later to see how can you remove stock dialer but still can get gsm signal and out/in call

The stock contacts do not have the phone.apk built in
the stock dialer is a part of the original stock contacts.
So when you dial from GO contacts you go straight to phone.apk(wich i dit not remove) and whola! a phone is calling a friend
Does app2sd work properly? Is it app2ext or app2sd?? Do u need an ext partition/? Or like cm7 it directly goes to SD??
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium
it has app2ext. but it works like normal if you don´t have ext
edit : it should say a2sd not ext sorry

only use franco official GB kernel
Hello everyone.
Right now I am running a Stock ROM based software and that is nice, it is the Flair GB based on O2x 20L, smoot rom after tweaks like SR2 Kernel an PP9 and Journal fix for EXT4.
Now my question is that I never found a solution to disable wake on new message, can that be done in the build.prop or du I need to delete something on the phone or go to hidden menu to disable something? same thing goes for the buttom flash, those need to be disabled too
Must tell, that I am using the stock Email and SMS application here, manny says switch to another SMS client, but it must be possible to change those settings in a LG stock message application.
Otherwise, please advice how to change from stock LG SMS application to ASOP SMS application (does MMS work here?) like to flash
Pls. advice
/Otto
Did you try GoSMS? It's quite customizable. Been a while since I've used it though. I'm just guessing here
MIUI rom's sms has it.

About other sofftware on the phone
Sure I have tried the GO sms and Hansend, but for me it is not the right solution, so today I am going to find a way to install the ASOP SMS client, somrthing to remember for MMS? or??
/Otto
Now I got the email working
Downloaded the files from MoDaCo GR5 (Vanilla and Core) and installed the email client by using the Root explorer, no problem here.
BUT now I can't get my SMS to work, copyed the Mms.apk to /system/app
What am I missing here?

Ok thought I would take the rubbish out of the dev thread.
So far I have done this:
Flashed JVT from start with custom .PIT file. Speeds up Ice Cream sandwich, I've tested this and it works great. Visually no lag and it works on top of any lag fix you do after wards.
[HOW TO]

So here it is:

Download and instructions - Everything you need is in that zip (its not a CWM zip by the way) load it to your PC and unzip. Follow the PDF print outs I have included and also as an acknowledgement to ykkfive's hard work (this references directly back to coolya's work from XDA https://github.com/cmsgs/utilities/tree/master/pit-stuff)

1. You can do this by taking a CWM Nandroid backup of your current setup.
2. Flash back to stock using Odin and the files I have provided in my drop box zip file.
3. I have added modem.bin file, script manager apk, buszybox apk and superuser apk for everyone should they wish to test the script and modem on the base JVT setup that they just flashed.
4. When it works correctly boot into recovery and then restore your CWM Nandroid backup and viola your done
5. Boot up - NB: You will notice you have no reception until you run the script in script manager.
You set on moot the script to run and in ICS it seems to work better than on JVT (where I had to initiate the script even after checking the onboot function).

Nova Launcher! Yeeeew finally a replacement. ****s on the standard launcher, can make GOSMS my sms app in the dock setup just how I always wanted it. Go Launcher Ex fails big time on ICS so don't bother installing it (even though I love it) the animations on GO Launcher cause big time crashing hahaha test for ya self for LOLs
You will ditch the stock launcher in an instant once your on this. It allows resizing of widgets and app draw also has widget draw like standard launcher.

Ice cream sandwich clock download from market. It looks like the clock in the pictured icon of the clock....not the gay looking analog clock that comes with it that I tried for ages to work out how to change the skin when you can't.
Haven't got a link for it atm but its in the Market so just download from there.

Thank you for sharing this, i cant understand why google decided to build a dialer without t9 index.
since i got t9 dialer i never keep the numbers in my head anymore!

Whats the difference? I am running a tweaked version of MyUI ICS ROM on my Phone and freakin rocks!
The MyUI version of the ICS ROM based off OneCosmic's RC 2.11.
- List of Mods. 1% increments on the battery using the similar style to Perka's MOD of Elin ROM ICS. Uses the ICS font for numerals upto 100 and has blue lightning bolt whilst charging.
- Uses Nova Launcher and Glitch Kernel but with the nice white standard Google boot image and tweaked Boot animation as well.
-Center Date in notification dropdowm menu

anyway to stop vibration on lockscren?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA Premium App
I think there is, u need to search in settings of the phone.
Thanks alot, Ive been looking for swype and a good and proper replacement launcher!
swype thread link broken?
didnt find a way to disable vibration on lock screen. if you disable haptic feedback in settings, it still vibrates.
furthermore, the vibration on haptic feedback is very high and not configureable.. thats annoying. disabled it, using now a keyboard with custom vibration length (htc_ime mod, yeah - still running under ics)

That one doesn't work after i tested it. The look of it is nice but the apk is made for a much bigger phone. It stretches too wide for the screen lol.
I went back to FlexT9 keyboard. By far the best swype out there that I have ever used. I keep deviating but I keep returning back to that old faithful hahaha. The issue with ICS is that it won't let you over ride the standard ICS keyboard to use anything other than native. So you need to freeze the keyboard apps with Titanium Backup. Then install the keyboard of your choice...in my case FlexT9. then I go and remove the apks from system/app like LatinIME and any associations with the standard keyboard, dictionary etc and put them in a folder on my SD card for "just-in-case"....cause that Justin bloke has saved me on many occasions lol.
I managed to use SwiftKey X without any problem - I do not need to freeze the stock ics keyboard apps.
i guess u knw wt i have done ..
You've found my very very very old thread that I started when ICS only first came to SGS...hahah
Is there a way to change the stock dialer and stock contacts app in CM9 by the Touchpal dialer?
If I remember well, in the standard Gingerbread rom, he asked which dialer I wanted to use.
I already tried to 'clear standards' in the app management, but it's greyed out for the stock dialer.
