Call Reciever / Dialer - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Dear All
Im using the EXCELZEUS 4.3 rom.
I hate the dialer, its a nightmare to make and receive calls from the stock dialer.
I want to replace the phone apk, Can anyone upload a good stock phone APK, One which has call options for vibrate on connect, end call , button answer? , of so any suggestions?
I personally hate the slide to answer thing, I prefer buttons.

sending tones during an active call

can somebody please tell me how can I send DTMF tones during a call? I searched in everywhere, but couldn't find any clear answers. do I need to install another application?
thanks for ur answers guys..
(HTC Diamond, wm6.1)
as i understand dtmf is enabled by default. i use it all the time with my phonebank.
yes it is enabled in my phone too, but there is no option to send DTMF tones. I am not talking about hearing those tones while dialling a number. what I mean is I made a phone call and connected, and then I want to send a number from my contacts. this is very practical when using the calling cards.
thanks
Press the keypad soft key(left) to bring the phone keypad.
I know it's not "hearing" the tones, as I said I use them to get access to my bank via the phone and that naturally involves quite a few numbers to be received by the other end. And this is carried out rather silently. Unfortunatly I haven't seen a "send number with DTMF" option. Maybe you indeed have to get an extra app to get that to work. The only place i've ever seen an option to even choose DTMF being enabled whatsoever is in schap's advanced config. I can vaguely recall such an option on an old Nokia pone. Sorry though for not being able to help.
ok, thanks for your comments. I appreciate if anyone lets us know if finds such a program.
I use DTMF tones to navigate in my voicemail and everything works fine here.

Calling from contacts list

I seem to have a recurring issue. I can not make a phone call from my contacts list. If I go to my contacts and tap call mobile or call home it does not launch the phone. It does nothing. If I tap email or sms it works fine. The only way I can make a phone call is to manually type the number in. I have tried different roms from different people and I have the same issue.
Has anyone come across this? Is this a common issue ? Is there a fix for it ?

Might be able to help out more if we knew what ROM you are using. I do not have this issuse and have used Miri, Duttys and PhamQuang ROMs.
I have used the wm6.5 energy Leo rom, I 've used Miri's 6.5 v9 manila 2.5 rom and Dutty's 6.5 R4 rom and they have all done the samething. Right now I currently have Dutty's 6.5 Leo R4(MSVC) rom installed. The funny this is that at first it worked just fine but when I started adding the contacts I used the most to the quick launch in the contacts list is when this started happening. The other roms did it right off the bat.

what other programs do you have installed on your phone? do you have other apps that include contacts functionality? also, are you trying to call from the Manila contacts app or the Windows contacts app? can you call contacts that are not on your People (Favorites) page? i have no problems initiating calls from the Windows and Manila contact apps by tapping "Call Mobile", "Call Home", etc. given your issue is not ROM specific, i'm inclined to believe its related to software or something stored with your contacts.
i have no other contact apps installed. i can not make any calls from quick contact list or from the "all people" list

after you flash a ROM, how are you reloading your contacts? if syncing, what is the source? after your next flash, i recommend adding a few contacts manually (3-5) and then determine if you can initiate calls from the by tapping "Call Mobile", "Call Home", etc. if you can, then reload your existing contacts and try initiating calls again. if it doesn't work, then the next item (in the process of elimination steps) is to review your contacts for info that could be causing the problem. fyi, i'm using MS Exchange to store and reload my contacts after flashing a ROM.
I am syncing with my PC and pulling my contacts from outlook. does it make a difference if you add a contact to the favorites list having the phone number or sms number as the number saved to quick contacts ?
I just noticed that if I go to start menu, click contacts, I can make calls that way.
The only apps I have installed is, tomtom7, slide to unlock and tweak HD
OK I finally found the problem In tweak HD if you go down to 1.8 phone pad style. I had it set to windows because i don't like the slide to answer call. When I put this setting back to HD (default) I was able to make calls from the manilia people tab and all contacts list.
So I guess I'll just have to choose either to not use the manilia people tab to make calls so I can answer the phone using the phone soft key, or use the people tab and have to deal with the slide to answer call. Unless there's another way to disable the slide to answer call

ahhhh... yeah, it's typically something we install and forgot or we assume it didn't have any impact on our issue. fyi, you don't have to use slide-to-answer to answer a call. i never use it, lol, i always use the send key (key to the left of the home key) to answer calls or the end key to ignore the call. glad you got it sorted out.
yea amazing. As you can see it drove me crazy. I found the solution by accident. The only thing I hate now is when I get a call the caller ID from slide to unlock comes up ( which is the one I prefer ) and the windows/manila one keeps flashing on top of it.
Otherwise Dutty's rom seems pretty solid
Camera zoom
I noticed that I do not have the zoom function with this rom, which I knew already, but if I was to install the old camera cab to get the zoom function back would I lose the ability to take pics at 5megs ?
Also I have tweak HD installed and it unlocked some good features like burst and sport, would I lose those functions ?

Dialer question

Hi,
This has been bugging me since day 1 when I used my Note. In my other Android phones, I usually just have to slide to answer a call, but in the Note, I have to hold the button and slide. This is what I dislike about the Note and I would like to know if there is a way to change the way to receive a call by just slide to answer instead? Thanks.
There are many 3rd party apps to solve your need. For example search the android market for "Smart Answer Call by James Kim". Needless to mention there are many more such apps u will get in the market.
I know that but they don't replace the default one when you receive calls, do they? I've got 'Go Dialer' but this is only when you are dialing a contact and not when receiving calls.
Can we change default dialer? is it possible?
