ICS keyboard and Sms

Hello, I would like to know, is it possible to keep a stock rom, and have the same keyboard as Cm 9? Don't know if it's the same as the normal ICS one. I use the ICS keayboard app from Google Play, it's really good, keyboard is the same, but I liked the way it underlined the wrong words in red, a bit like Microsoft Word!
And also, is it possible to have the same type of sms app? With the pictures of our friend always shown for new sms's and not just bubbles.

For your first issue. You wont get it to underline in red, because that is handled by the SMS app, not the keyboard. and why are you on XDA and using GB anyway?

So, this can't be done with a stock rom?
I'm on XDA because I used to have a Custom rom, CM9 then, Remics. But I use Tango quite often and apparently this app doesn't work with roms so this was kind of a deal-breaker. Moreover, tha camera app and the browsing experience was better with the stock rom, easier to watch Flash videos on my phone

Verizon Visual Voice Mail 3.0 apk File

Hello Everyone,
So I flashed my Verizon LG G2 from KitKat 4,4,2 to stock 4.2.2 thankfully, but the problem I am having is, I am missing the Visual Voice Mail App, I mean I have the old one that comes already installed which is version 2.2, I believe , but I want the one that is 3.0 , here is why:
As you know that Verizon now offers a free Basic Visual Voice Mail, and I did have it working on Kitkat, but not on Jelly Bean.
So Please Please Please, I am happy that I flashed my phone to 4.2.2, so if you can post a .apk file for the Verizon LG G2 Visual Voice Mail App that comes with KitKat 4.4.2 , since it is free to use and it saves me a lot of time to dial *86 every time I get a Voice Mail (ugh)
The one I have now makes me dial *86 every time I click on it, even if I click "Subscribe for Visual Voice Mail" , it gives me an error.
So again, Please if anyone has a KitKat version on their LG G2, Please pull out the APK File for Visual Voice Mail 3.0.6 I believe is, and post it here, I will greatly appreciate it, or simply if you have it ready without going through your phone.

Not sure if this will work or not, but just a thought.
Go to xda-developers Verizon LG G2 Verizon G2 Android Development [ROM] XDABBEB's VS980 v2.2.0
There xdabbeb posted zips for removed lg and google apps. The VVM might be in there. I'm not too sure, I don't have it on my phone.
Best of luck!

The .apk is in XDABBAB's 2.2.0 LG apps zip. Make sure you copy over the .apk and the odex file. Let us know if it works...

Ever tried Google voice mail? Having voice mail transcribed and sent as text (and/or email) is great. You can also play back the voice mail from Google voice or Google dialer, so there really isn't a need to call.
It's a bit of a pain to install (a computer with chrome and Google voice app is helpful), but it's worth it.
lg g2 xdabbeb's vs980 v2.2.0

Watching this one :good:

Google Voice
Yeah i get a lot of questions as to why i want the visual voicemail app also. Not only do we have to pay for it but Google Voice does all the transcribing and such also. Its just a ease of use thing for me, as i think they hope it would be. I pay for the feature but also dont get it with a custom rom. I cant find the apk anywhere, which is unusual. If anyone can help i would also appreciate it.

[Q] Google dialer without root/loosing DRM

Came from a Nexus4 to Z3C, and my only and biggest dissapointment is the missing google dialer - I was not aware it is not available to non-nexus(play edition) phones. The KitKat dialer with quick local business-search is very handy, and I desperately want it back. I see that it can be done with root, but I also see rooting Z3 causes some issues with DRMs and such.
Does anyone know a way to get the google dialer working without root, or will we soon get a root method without compromising?

Use a third party dialer like dialer+ or ex dialer?

As far as I know this will not give the functionality I'm after?
The google dialer gives me ALL businesses that's not in my contacts(and has caller ID built-in):

The best replacement I've found is TrueDialler, its fairly similar in functionality in that it can tell you who is calling and it looks fairly stock like. You can use google search to get the same phone numbers you saw in the phone app.

any idea why this feature hasn't been rolled out more widely across non Nexus devices? Seems strange that Google would keep this to itself, and if they aren't keeping it to themselves I don't understand why other companies wouldn't integrate it.

No idea, but i also find it odd that a company like Sony would implement such a crummy dialer app when the stock Google version is so good. The Xperia dialer is THE worst of the altogether pretty bad basic apps Sony gives us (calendar, messaging, contacts etc.).

The exact part i miss is the auto search for businesses direct from dialer, does that function in truedialler? Incoming caller ID I already have through another domestic app.

The truedialer does search..! I love you, arj154! Just noe thing; do you know how to get special characters, æøå?

lol no problem, im not sure how to do special characters in truedialler and it looks like you cant do it for now but it might be something to ask the developers about, they could possibly add it in a future update. The only other way around it is possbily to search for those in google now.

Best dialer opinions?

Anybody using a non stock dialer? Opinions on best?

What's wrong with the stock dialer?

I preferred the stock dialer on the note 4.

ExDialer, because it's blazing fast.

I like stock dialer but not being able to remove emails etc from contacts does suck.

BlissPop's Dialer has all the features I need, plus call recording. Used to pay for apps to do that so it's a killer feature for me.

Just downloaded Ready dialer and so far so good.

hangouts is good, just set it up for myself looks good.
Will report back in a few days see how i get on with it.

Na its sshhiitt went back to stock after a few days

All the alternatives generally look ugly to me. I always end up on stock

Unlocked V40 from B&H

Hey guys just a few quick questions here. Did anyone order the V40 from B&H?
If so I have a few questions about some of the system apps. Mainly does it have the stock lg messaging app or did they ditch that with the international version as well? Does the Google dialer from playstore work on the phone or is it blocked? Yes I know there's a patched version but I'm wondering about the one on Google Play. On the G7 it worked fine. And if someone could posts few screenshots for me that would be swell too. Looking to see settings, dialer and if possible the stock messaging app (if it was included)

Did not come with a LG Messaging app. Is compatible with the Google Dialer and Contacts. Installed both and then uninstalled com.android.contacts to remove the lg dialer and contacts, and everything is working fine. Also have done the same with calculator and clock so I could use more overlays with swift black. Settings look different from the V30, but probably similar to the G7. May attach screenshots later if I remember and have time.

Great thanks for this. How about lg calendar app?

It came with Google Messages (currently running 3.7.052) as the stock messaging app. I don't know about the normal version but the beta of the Google Phone (26.0222117411) app works just fine directly from the store. I've attached dialer and messaging screenshots with personal information cleared out.

Calendar is the Google version.

Another question for the international one, if that's the B&H one. Can you turn off the camera shutter sound right from the app?

Can someone show me a picture of the theme app open? I want to see something that will be helpful moving forward and let me get a head start on a few things

Well if your taking requests a black out theme would be nice and battery saving....and whatever wallpaper you wannna go with as the creator.

Well I don't take requests per say but I sure do listen to people and try to cater as best I can. I will open a support, communication and feedback thread once I get something done. I've had quite a few people asking for pixel experience light and dark so that will be first followed by something else that I've been tinkering with and possibly an icon pack add on since some people prefer stock icons, with the icon pack they can have the choice
