[solved] smart dial not working? - Xperia Z3 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Small annoyance: my smart dial is only recognising numbers but not letters. Does it work on your phone? It says dial numbers or letters in the phone app so I guess theoretically it should work...

Luckily cannot confirm this. In build 23.0.A.2.98 at least both (number & name) smart dial function works fine and as expected. I have not tested that on any other build, but you may just update and reset the mobile once.

Do you guys have speed dial? (Hold down a number to call someone) does the dialer work in landscape mode?

Yes and Yes.

On my previous sony model the smart dial worked only in English.

Strange! Well, my Z3C sample has fully working Speed Dial when set to English and to German.

Made a factory reset - problem solved working perfectly now. TY

Wait, does speed dial work for you guys? I can't get speed dial by long pressing the numbers or by looking through the settings/options.
This seems like something that couldn't possibly not be a standard option.

Hi. From start my phone had the exact same problem. But after aprox. one hour it went away by itself. I'm not aware of any changes I made in the meantime.
Maybe phone needed more time to finish indexing contacts after the sync or something like that.

Google Voice and +1 dialing

First off, thank you to everyone who has had a hand in making Android on Vogue a reality. Amazing work.
I've spent some time researching failed outbound calls in GV, and as best I can tell the problem does not lie within GV, but is a limitation of the dialer. I'm noticing that all outbound calls to "+1" numbers fail on my device. As GV outbound calls are to +1 numbers, they always fail. Are others experiencing this, and if so could you please list carrier information?
I am using a Vogue with Warm Donut on Alltel.
Finally, is it possible that this is a radio issue? Is anyone having success with +1 dialing?
I have had the same experience.
Instead of using the Google Voice app for dialing out, I use "GV Dialer" from Android Market. Very reliable. Works 100% of the time with no problems.
Hope that helps...

I tried this also. My question is: Is there any way to use GV for all calls by default, but then to use GV for a specific #? When I call my mom, I want it to be Sprint to Sprint so I can't use GV.

I have had the problem with the "Voice" app from google for a while as well. not so sure that it is connected to the +1 dialing, as I've found sometimes just dialing again (sometimes it takes 5 tries) allows it to go through. a reboot ALWAYS allows it to function, at least for me. others noted that using plemen's old build that set build.prop to mimic T-mobile G1 broke "Voice" from working at all; I'm wondering if using market enabler will do this as well. not the whole story, though, as this has occurred to me since I stopped using market enabler a week ago.
berardi, "Voice" from google has a widget that with one click cycles through the different calling options (all calls GV, only international, no calls, etc). not ideal, but it works. it is under shortcuts rather than widgets, though, called "toggle google voice".
Yes, you are correct about the +1 dialing being the problem. I am on USCC and I cannot dial any +1 numbers, so this is a showstopper for using the GV app. Seems to me that there should be an option in its setting to use the prefix or not.
The solution is this: Check the market for an app called "GVMyNumber". It integrates well with the GV app, except when you go to place a GV call, this app dials your own GV number and goes thru the prompts. It is the best app for doing this that I have tried.

I think I still disagree. +1 dialing is not the whole problem. Tested again this pm, probably dialed 12 times in a row that failed, with a restart in the middle (apparently restarts don't always fix the problem), then two calls in a row that went through fine. ALL calls including the last two had +1, so that is not the whole story. Yes, dialing Google voice to dial out always works so programs that use that are a great workaround.

You might be right that the +1 is not the entire issue. However, I tried this a couple times: I dialed the GV access number manually, without the +1, and my previously attempted call would then go through.
I had originally thought this was a carrier specific problem, but now I'm definitely rethinking that. I am not optimistic of finding a workaround, other than using 3rd party apps.

I tried loading GVMyNumber.apk and get a message "could not be installed on this phone".
I am running Myn's Donut v1.6.
It appears this app has a minimum requirement of Eclair Android 2.0 and above.
Hopefully they update it to support earlier versions of Android.

Boost Mobile Android v1.6, Yes LOL
short-term solution
I stumbled upon a program in the market. Called "GV" that will use either dialing patterns or the callback method. It works great, it's free, and it appears the developer is now distributing the code on his website.

Hello PeopleHelper,
I did exactly as you said and it did not work for me.
Did a fresh install of Myn's Rlse4 (Android v1.6) this morning using the "myn-WarmDonut-03-16-2010-320x480-160.zip" file.
Yes, everything looks a lot smaller.
Then open up the GVMyNumber apk to install it.
I then get a message "Application not installed -- GVMyNumber could not be installed on this phone"
Any other ideas?
I prefer this app over FlexDialer because after you are done with calls, the phone log shows the person's number you called instead of a call log full of my GoogleVoice phone number.
Thanks for any help!

[Q] Double Dialer Pad on Nexus One running Cyanogen 6.0 rc3

first and foremost i wanna start out by saying that rooting my phone was an awesome idea. it started out as me just wanting to overclock the cpu and enable 720p recording but now that its rooted im really appreciating what actual full customization means. my phone is working near perfect and is stable except for the boot loop when i initially rooted but i did find one issue.
for some reason when i go into my dialer and press the area where the number shows and i cant figure out how to disable the second number pad that shows up. Any help?
Simple, just don't press the area where the numbers show. Just start dialling with the dial pad that's already there.

as simple as it sounds there are times in the lives of phone users when a number needs to be edited. so thank you for you suggestion but realistically people dont always dial perfectly. and in my case im in florida with a new york number so i need to add 1 to every number before i call out. so when im selecting a number off a webpage i have to press that area to add the "1" beforehand
Just press back burton to dismiss the android keyboard after you edited the number.

[REQUEST] Replace HTC Stock Phone Dialer

I desperately want to be able to replace my entire dialer for my HTC One. I am running ViperROM with the standard HTC Sense Phone Dialer. While i know there are many dialers in the google play I can use to Dial with, none of them are actually replacing the stock App because incoming calls and any dialed calls still open up the HTC Dialer. I realize this is not an easy task, because there are many different things that need to be replaced for this to happen. I will donate money for this app, something reasonable. I've always contributed to development that is deserved and will continue to do so. I assume this would be possible just with some work if devs could get the HTC Camera to work on the GE edition, maybe its the same idea of reverse engineering (I'm open to correction) In the following post, devs have managed to get the HTC Camera working on the GE version. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2351965
**The reason I am wanting this is because I am used of my iPhone in which when I dialed a number, no matter if i used an area code or not It pointed to the persons contact (Aka global contact lookup). With the HTC Dialer, if I don't dial the number EXACTLY like it is stored then just shows up as a number in my outgoing and never shows the contact photo or the contact at all. Same thing for incoming calls if i do not have them stored with an Area Code. I have been told this may be something to with a patent dispute from apple and HTC, and HTC just never wanted to add it back. I know pretty much every other Manufacture that skins android this works fine with. Just not HTC.

It's easy for you to say that when you're used to it, but many of my close friends I know there numbers by memory and i find it extremely faster to just dial the numbers, and not just that when i store number i would not like to have it exactly like to comes in. This is the only phone i've owned in years that does this. It may seem like nothing to some people but me and a buddy both have this phone and both are used to dialing numbers from memory, which IMO is much faster.

As a matter of fact the HTC dialer searches by Name and Number at the same time so you should be covered with this dialer. still there are a whole bunch of dialers available at the Play Store. TouchPal is pretty good.

Sorry, but you obviously don't understand what i am saying. This is a known issue. And its not hard to reproduce. Find a phone number that is stored in your phone with an area code. Now dial that number without an area code. The contact will not show up when dialing out. Same thing if someone calls you and you do not have a number stored with area code. Vice versa. This is a known issue and has been talked about on different forums randomly. It is not hard to reproduce.

While I do appreciate your help, you're mistaken or don't quite understand fully. You do suffer this, EVERY HTC One ROM has this issue, i've talked to countless HTC Tech support its the same thing for everything. There are many forums about it. So you understand....
Store a contact with this the following:
337-555-5555
Name: Testing
...Now to test this open your normal HTC Dialer
and Dial 555-5555
---That contact will not show up
Hear thee hear thee. You can replace with AOSP dialer all you want. And it will look nice and all handy dandy and stuff. The second you hit call, you are back in the HTC dialer. And when you answer it will be HTC dialer.
You can delete the HTC dialer and it will not change.
You can delete the HTC phone app and replace with AOSP and then you are really screwed. Force closes galore.
The moral of the story is, if you want a full AOSP dialer on Sense, you're gonna have a bad day.

I thank you don't trying to help, but please read the whole post and especially the entire comment right above yours.

That is your opinion but in my opinion it clearly states in everything I wrote what the issue was. And if they read the entire article they would not have posted some of those things. You may take that as rude, I just think anyone should read the entire post before commenting is all.

I did use the app, i've used many dialers, they will never actually replace the stock dialer after making a call that is built into the system, you can see this after you dial a number, it reverts back to HTC Dialer, Read the post tyler wrote above. I guess i am not explaining my self correctly.
Do the following:
Save a contact as followed:
Name: Testing
Number: 555-555-5555
Now do the following:
Open up any dialer of your preference. Dial 555-5555 Exactly like that. When you type that in you WILL SEE that correct contact.
Now as soon as you click the call button it will revert back to HTC Stock dialer, in which the contact does not match up without the exact number that it is stored as. You will only see "Dialing 555-5555" with no contact photo instead of "Dialing Testing" with a contact photo. Also, when you look at your call log you will see that correct contact, because you are using a thirdparty app, but when its ringing you will see HTC Dialer and if you do have the number saved EXACTLY like its stored then you will see the contact infromation. But if you have it stored as 555-555 and they call in with an area code which every phone number has...the contact will not show.
The only thing im asking here is if someone could replace the entire system dialer. While I appreciate people trying to offer ideas there is NOTHING that will fix this unless someone figures out how to effectively replace the system dialer completely, which as tyler wrote is very difficult. Using third party apps will not fix this issue.
This is also called global contact lookup, in which most apps can do this, which work fine before actually pressing Dial, then the system dialer takes over and if your number is not exact it will not show the contact.

This is a modified dialer apk, and root is NOT required. All credit for this goes to those mentioned in the original OP.

Does this app actually make the call or is it just a dialer that opens the LG app soon as you hit send? I'm just looking for a solution to the stock app because it turns hot pink when you hang up... It's the only thing about this phone that I don't like. It's driving me crazy ?

Goto Settings > Apps > *Touch the 3 dots in the top right corner* and select Configure Apps > Default Apps > Phone App > *Select the Google Dialer. It will be listed as simply "Phone"
I have not tested this for incoming calls just yet, but for outgoing, it will skip the stock dialer completely. Hope this helps.

so no caller ID though... I wonder if the Tmobile Name ID feature will still work
Well standard caller ID works.. I will have to wait till an unknown number calls me to test the rest.
The latest version that was in the actual thread crashes for me. The version in the OP works fine. Thanks!

Same here.
Stupid question maybe, but what exactly do you find wrong with the stock G5 dialer app, and what makes the Google dialer more desirable?
TIA

It's more visually pleasing? For people who really want a stock Google experience, it's one more thing to get you closer to that. With this and the Contacts app installable from APK Mirror, I'm officially using all the stock Marshmallow apps for everything but my Exchange email.

I find the LG dialler requires more finger presses. But I'm coming from the Song Xperia dialler.
New call: Go to dialler. Possibly not on the call tab so click that. Start to type name and some suggests come up. Click on the [v]. Select the person/number to call. And now the bit that annoys me, press the call button. If I click on number why not just call them, why show number and wait for me to press another button?
Call back: So I missed a call. Go to dialler, go to call logs, click on the call I missed. Show the contact details. WTF? So now I click the phone icon and call. Yes I know there is a little call icon but I'm used to clicking a phone number and it dials it. Not have to locate one tenth of the call log line to start a call.
Anyway, I'll get used to it but I do think I have to do more work for simple calls versus other diallers.
Wow. That is as clear and concise an answer as I could ask for. I wish my wife would answer simple questions like that, but I have to ask her twenty follow-up questions just to get an answer to the first one! So, I do see what you mean, and I have found it at least a little annoying myself. I guess I just accepted it as the way it is. Never really thought to look for a different dialer, but by golly it just might be worth a look now. Thanks for taking the time to give such a thorough answer. I hope you type much faster than I do, but I use Swype keyboard.
Does the original Dialer needs to be uninstalled first before installing Google-Dialer 3.00?
-> If yes, where to get that original Dialer found and uninstalled?
How about if Google-Dialer will be updated in future to 3.xx?
- Auto-Update or manual update needed?
- Link to webside to be able to always have the latest version installed?
Thx
It's crashing on me. Where can I get one that works?
Sent from my LG-H830 using XDA-Developers mobile app
Ive had no issues with this. Been using it for a week or so & has been flawless.
Also been working for me with no issues. Combined with the Google Contacts app and then Calendar, Clock, and Calculator, throw an icon pack into Nova, and I seriously feels like I'm stock. Very very happy.
as soon as i click on the icon i get "Unfortunately, Phone has stopped" message.
There are several versions out there. It would be helpful if ya'll would specify which version is or is not working. I am running the 2.05.07_rc4 with no issues. I haven't tried the 3.0 version yet.

Dialer problems

Hi, I have a strange problem with my p10.
When I call somebody, the dialer on the notification bar continuously disappears and appears, preventing me from accessing the call interface and hunging up the call, and when i get called the phone rings but i cant answer because the interface doesn't even appear. I already tried to use another dialer app, but the problem remains.
Thanks in advance!
Sorry if the grammar isn't perfect, but english is not my native language.

Same problem here since yesterday, dialer go crazy, a can't answer call, if i make call i can't hang up.
I also install new dialer as temporary solutions. What is going on is someone know solution how to fix this??
I got the same problem now aswell, it has to do with some kinda of update, and the phone goes crazy hot while in call...
you should be correct. it goes also very hot in call.
as of now I can't find a solution.
I am working on saving everything I can before a reset...
just to let you know that a factory reset resoled this on my side.
After that, everything goes back to normal.
