Any good phone (dialer) app for MIUI ? - Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers

I have installed Nova launcher on my mi 8 and phone icon is missing ! when I switch back to system launcher, the phone icon returns back.
Other than that I do not like the default MIUI phone app. I tried to install several versions of Samsung phone apk, but they dont install or dont run.
Is there any good alternatives out there ?

how you install this google dialler in miui 10? I tried in my redmi note 5 pro but failed,can you help me?

I use ex dialer and it has the swipe call/swipe message like the samsungs one.
Samsung dialer requires the samsung ui framework so it can't be installed.

samsung had removed that feature from the stock touchwiz launcher.. Only way to get it back is by using 3rd party launcher, like nova launcher..
Okay or edit the APK files?
If i know where i must search in the APK i can do this Change again.....

Thanks, i will contact the DEV how he make this changes @oluwaponmile
Did you ever figure this out? Trying to do the same thing.
Yes, oluwaponmile have made / give me a TW Launcher with infinite scrolling homescreen is working. I have the permission this launcher to integrate in my Stocky MOD (http://forum.xda-developers.com/note5/development/mod-v1-0-stockymods-t3254588/) . Then everyone can flash it easy over the Custom Recovery. It coming soon (I think on the weekend)!

Pixel launcher and wallpapers working [5.0+only]

So hello guys welcome to the guide to how install google pixel launcher working and tested bug free.
So lets get started,
Required:
1. Any Android 5.0 + device
2. Working internet
3. Rooted ot Non rooted [ works with both device]
So first let us understand what is a pixel launcher. Pixel launcher is a launcher which is used in google pixel devices. Running on android nougat. So if you ever see it its too amazing launcher ever. I have also tested and its bug free. In earlier verison it was only working with android marshmallow device. But now you can use it on android lollipop cheers to google for bringing happiness to lollipop device users. So you can easily enjoy pixel style to your device.
So this process doesn't require root so non root users can use it without worrying about warranty loss or any damage to your device proceed to the installation guide.
So its not a different app normally install it as you do with other app installing but keep unown source ok in your device. Also make sure that install wallpaper app before because if you dont you will get error pixel launcher stopped when you try to change the wallpaper that beacuse wallpaper app is the theme manger of pixel launcher. So if it not installed app will crash while changing wallpaper. Also make sure download latest version from the link. But dont download this version of google pixel launcher named as :
Pixel Launcher O-3743572 (READ NOTES) this version of app is used in android o preview. So this app will not work on lollipop devices so try older than this app.
Credits:
Google ( for making pixel launcher)
Apk miror ( for giving option to download it )
Me ( for explaining how to do it)
Download links :
1. Google pixel launcher:
http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/pixel-launcher/
2. Wallpaper app by Google:

Don't forget to hit thanks if you like this. Thank you.
Pixel icon issue.
But remember all this will make your device look like pixel not everything beacuse you app icons remains the same. So if you want to change them same as pixel you need android 7.1 device it will not work on lollipop or marshmallow device so of you have nougat device then just download this and install it as normal apk. You are done this app is a offical app not a clone or dummy or my own app so if you have any problem you can ask me i will reply it ASAP. Thankyou

I'm also using Nova, works perfectly.
Anyway do this:
Install Google Now Launcher
Tap home button and it will ask to set default launcher.
If incase it doesn't then goto default launcher app setting and clear defaults.
Then tap the Home button again.
Is any one using Snapchat in Moto E4 plus? Coz I am having lag in Snapchat.
Why google now launcher when you have the pixel launcher..
Ok , i found a solution similar to your problem . Open Google app Info and clear data and cache and force stop , again open launcher info and do the same reboot and all should be good you will be able to Replace the stock Launcher from that to google Now Launcher

How to apply 3rd party themes?

My main frustration with Miui is not being able to theme it myself, I don't like any of those themes in the store.
I applied for designer in their website but my theme has been waiting to be approved by them for like 3 months now.
I've tried several workarounds, like the force close method (Doesn't works for me I'm on Miui 12.0.6 Btw) and the theme editor from playstore (Works but reverts to stock after a while).
EU roms have a fix for this but there's no EU roms for this device, screw MediaTek.
I have root access via magisk and the unofficial twrp as recovery, is there anything I can do to install a theme permanently?

I just looked it up, only works for Miui 11 and is paid.
Also, even though it is restricted, I prefer Miui theme engine, it is very customizable and system wide. That's the main reason I haven't switched to Lineage Os, I've heard custom app icons only apply to launcher in Lineage Os (No custom icon in recents or settings apps tab)
Did you download the Swift Installer? Because it will support every phone after you install it will cost some money but you can download apk
MIUI themes are in MTZ format, You can either import them in theme store, or apply them through an app named "Theme editor for MIUI".
Keep in mind since there's no proper support for third party themes, they get reseted after some time and the phone returns back to stock theme.
So for now either you enjoy your theme for a few hours and it resets, or try to get it on the MIUI Theme store.
