I know that a lot of ppl have been frustrated by the need to use a slider to answer calls on Android. I find it very annoying. I know there are a bunch of apps out there that provide a touch button answer screen.
But I noticed that at (least on JB), when I have a call waiting, the native android answer screen has touch buttons to answer or decline!
I was wondering if anyone would know how to tweak things so that we could get this screen to pop up for ALL incoming calls- or if this has already been done?

i've been searching for an application that can make my phone vibrate on screen taps. i would try to use this instead of sound on screen tap because it looks like a good idea. so i'm very interested in this kind of app and i hope i'm not the only one.
during my search i found something called VibeTonz, but this does not come as a program, it is a feature built in some devices.
here on xda i found some threads about dialpad vibration and this thing works, so i think it would be possible to create something that would make phone vibrate on any screen tap.
P.S.: sorry for my bad english. hope you could at least understand what i'm talking about
yeah it would be cool to see something like this, the dial pad vib program is freaking sweet.
hmm.. yeaa that would be kinda cool. btw.. ur english is perfect
you mean something like this:
Phone pad vibrate when tapping numbers?
as i mentioned above, there is a cab like this on xda forums, but it only works for dialpad. what i need is something that could make the phone to vibrate on ANY screen tap. what i don't like about dialpad vibrate cab is that it makes the phone vibrate just as long as you keep dialpad number pressed,so if you just tap the number too fast there is no vibe or it is too short and so it's not suitable for fast typing. the thing that i would like to see would vibrate for fixed time (let's say 100ms) on any screen tap (including dialpad tap). i think this kind of touch screen response would make the use of it much easier and faster. but i can't know that because i didn't try this.
maybe if someone has a VibeTonz enabled phone could tell as about experiences with this kind of response?
anyway, thanks for your efforts and i'm glad to see there are some people supporting this thread and some interested in this.
I am searching for this app to, it would give great fingerpushing feedback. It will feel like pushing "real" buttons on your screen
About the vibrating dialpad: i thought i read somewhere that you can alter it so that it will vibrate instantly.
I second that!
I'd love this kind of app. My kaiser has particularly flat keys on the keyboard and there's no travel to them. So I stumbled across the dialer vibrate cab while looking for a solution. I'm trying to figure out if it's possible to mod that cab's registry entries to make it vibrate on any keypress, such as while typing... but so far no luck. A touchscreen vibrate cab would be awesome too. I think any program that is possibly developed should include settings for both the touchscreen and the keyboard.
Someone with a little spare time want to work on these ideas? Pretty please?
Bump!
I didn't have time to try this, but if you are interested here is the link:

Could someone tell me why this is doing this on incoming call and how I would fix it? Wow I posted an Image too but its not showing any way when someone calls it looks like it has the answer buttons and the slide to answer buttons at the same time its really distorted.
Hi, lets see if I understand you correctly.
1. The slide to answer is standard with the latest firmware.
2. The slider screen tends to look weird if you have some kind of non HTC-theme that changes the design of the TouchFlo system. I used to have the black dialer and that screwed up the slider screen bigtime.
Question??
yes I do have the blk dialer.No TF3D and no bloatware.
So is my only option is to live with the distortion if I want to keep the black dialer? Cause the dialer its self is fine.
Is it possible that someone can develop a simple app for legend, which would make the Home key and Back key act as call attend and call end button on legend?
Home key should only act as call attend while the call is incoming.
and back key should only act as end button while a call is incoming and when the call screen is still visible while on call.
Iam not exactly sure if there is already such an app, i've really tried looking and found none so far.
it would be just great if something like this is possible, there can be times when we just dont want to touch the screen, like while eating or with wet/dirty fingers.
The home button cannot be overridden IIRC. But it should be possible to remap the other ones. ask the creator of your phone app. I think designing a dialer/phone app just for button remapping is asking too much.
You can already use the power button to hang up, enable it in the accessibility setting (or is this cyanogenmod specific?).
Actually iam running stock ROM, I must admit i have not a single clue on how/if its possible. I don't deal with development, I was merely suggesting an idea for those who might be able to do it.
I didn't realize it would require a total rewrite of the dialer app, I was kind of under there impression that it could be possible through some lil hack.
The home button I mentioned was also a suggestion.
Is it possible to to disable the buttons (answer/ignore) and use Only slider as answering alternative? Cause I hate when the buttons are "selected" (think so) when it's in my pocket and I answer/ignore by mistake whilst picking it up.
I am currently using "Full screen caller ID", and it has the option to use only sliders, but after recent updates it refuse to answer, and I must use the back button to go to original answering mode, and there either use slider or buttons; which I find to be more random in usage than controlled by factors.
So, if anyone know of a way to to this for me, I would be thankful.
Sincerly,

I have the same problem, I hope that someone maybe know this answer.
Both my parents have new L90s and are having trouble answering calls. The screen that pops up when someone calls them, the answer call button is in the corner and can be difficult for them to tap on and slide. It is also not very responsive, from my testing. Any way I can replace it with another one that uses bigger buttons and maybe a more obvious direction for sliding?
Via settings /call you can set the home button to answer calls
