I have a stock Galaxy S8. There is a delay from when I get a call till the swipe screen comes up then another delay till I can press the dialpad button then press a number. For my job I need to be answer calls very quickly and press #1 but it take a good 6-10 second before I can go through everything. It seems to be a lot of delay due to fade and graphics and stuff. I can't seem to find a different dialer app and Samsung doesnt have a clue. Suggestions? Another dialer app I haven't seen? Dont want to root if I dont have to.

How is the app that is included in Faria & et al ROM called? One to set speed dial on the today screen
thanks
Personally, I like it. Only thing is that it's too easy to dial and I'm afraid that I'm going to end up making a lot of accidental phone calls, so I've had to turn it off. If there was a way to change it so that it requires a doubletap or better yet a tap and hold to choose dial from the menu then I think I would be able to keep it.

Ergh... Thanks! I'm a moron... I meant to type how is it called....
Is it possible to program one of the hot keys to be a phone mute/unmute button, or is there a need to create an app?
I'll check out if I can make an app out of it tomorrow unless anyone posts anything different. I made a key lock app for the PTT soft button. I might make it mute your call if you're in a call or lock your phone if you're not. Anyway, lets hope it can be done without an app or with an app and you'll have it by tomorrow evening. Do you have the Tilt, Tytn, or Vario?
Thanks for your prompt response. I have an unlocked TYTN II.
You might not have a PushToTalk button. Got any of the other buttons in mind? You can map it to whatever, and I'll check it out tomorrow. See my first post titled "First Post / KeyLock" for my keylock app and a link on how to map the PTT button. Other buttons should be similarly mapped.
Would like to use the green phone button for this purpose.
I'm interested in this too (I swear I live on concalls for work right now). Either the green button or the ok button on the side of the phone. But I'm curious, will the phone have to be "on" (ie: not sleeping) for this to work? Currently I use the reTOUCHed dialer and just go to Call Status screen and tap the mute / unmute toggle on the screen to do this (which works well since they are bigger buttons than the default dialer on the Tilt). But having it mapped to a hardware button would be very nice.
Was there ever any progress on this? I'd like to assign the PTT button to mute/unmute during a call. I am constantly on conference calls and having to use the touchscreen to do this is ridiculous.
Is there any way to make the people icons in the Contacts tab of HTC Home jump to the phone screen with the contact set ready to dial, but wait for you to press the Green call button before it actually dials? It's far too easy to accidentally dial someone via that panel with an inadvertant touch at present. It's still a handy way to get to your favourite contacts quickly, but I'd much prefer the 'safety net' of having to press the green button to actually initiate the call. Is there such an option?

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.
Guys,
I hate it everytime there is a call, i have to slide the green button to receive the call.
I really really would prefer, just hitting green button to accept call - So how can i change the same ?
I just want to change this, so i guess installing a Rom is out of question as dont want anything else to get changed..
Next, The default "Active Application" widget is ugly - Anything you can suggest to replace this ?
I believe you can set the physical home button to answer calls.

I'm never happy with that. I guess I am worried that the call will be answered in my pocket, or when I remove it from my belt case. Perhaps that is more likely with the power button, however. May I will man-up and give it a try
BTW the setting is in Accessibility -> call answering/ending

Use HD caller id from market, it allows various modes of answering, plus you get full screen caller picture as a bonus!
