Hello there, I'm currently using [ROM][UNOFFICIAL BETA][CM10] Avatar ROM for Motorola Atrix MB860[Updated 17th Feb 13]
HTML:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2140902
and have been enjoying it. I installed GO contacts EX and Go Dialer EX but for the life of me I can't seem to figure out how to stop the Avatar Rom for using the default dialer when it sends or receives a call. I've gone through and looked at every option I can search through and there is nothing that allows me to uncheck / remove / ignore the default phone app.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Thanks for the reply. That was the first place I looked. Unfortunately I think the default dialer is hijacking Go Contacts/dialer EX. Go Contacts is set for the default already but the moment I dial out from it, the default dialer takes over on both outgoing and incoming calls. It's kind of annoying but I can simply get rid of Go Contacts and just live with the default. It will be a love/hate relationship It beats having the two programs competing all the time.

I've never tried it before, but root your device (if you haven't already), then go into system apps and delete the default dialer. this might work, but make sure you have your preferred dialer installed ahead of time. this is just an idea, idk if it works

It was a good idea but after I deleted dialer.apk (backed it up just in case), the system pasted a new dialer.apk in it's place (the original default one) once I launched exdialer lol. I have to admit, it is kind of comical how persistent that dialer.apk is Thanks again for the help. I think I'm stuck with it

So When I go to use the dailer it automatically takes me to contacts and to be able to dail a number I have to hit dailer scroll over at the top THEN select phone were I can dail a number this is a MAJOR inconvenance. Any Setting or anyway to fix this?
I have never seen this or heard anyone else complain of this. Are you stock?
Open dialer then go preferences> default tab and set which ever tab you want as default and then every time you open dialer it will be there.

Nothing there for that. theres no Prefernces button. Just settings and theres nothing there either.
It always takes me to the dial pad. I don't see an option to change the default tab.

Hey,
The stock messaging app sucks on this, why does it show messages so wierdly? Like all my messages are at the bottom while all the recieved message are at the top?
It should be one after the other, as in CM7 messaging app that I used on my previous phone.
Someone know how to fix this? or get better messaging app like the cm7?
Check the timestamp of the messages! It might be possible that the app thinks that the messages you've been sent are from the past due to a mis-matching time zone/time setting!
I use go sms pro.
Free from market.

Go to time and date settings untick automatic update then choose your timezone ie: +8 or -4. That will fix your problem.

I don't know about all of you, but the default Blur dialer is roughly 10,000,000 times better than WyContacts that is packaged with CM7. I can't stand the piece of crap anymore. It doesn't allow you to tap a number and have it pull in the dialer so it can be modified, the contact integration is wonky, the favorites list is shoddy... basically I hate it if you can't tell.
Is there a way to either get the stock Dialer from Gingerbread (from the n1 or ns), the Blur dialer, or some other dialer that supports the same feature set as the default or Blur ones?
Help?

Use go dialler in combination with go contacts, I'm sure you'll like it.

Thanks, this one seems to be the closest one available. It's only missing the "Recommended" Favorites. However, where most of these dialers are only 60% of what I want, Go Dialer is more like 80% what I want. None of the other free ones on the Market are very good at all.
Dialer One FTW

Go Dialer is indeed great! but the problem is that missed calls are generated and not cleared unless explicitly swiped or cleared with button.

I was wanting to know the way to replace the system phone/contacts with rocketdial? I've tried this before,by deleting system phone and contacts thru TB but got tons of FCs.

you dont need to delete anything install app and then change phone and contact shortcuts icons in your home screen by the ones of the app
howver you can use system contacts if you want and after install the app if you go to a contact and press to make a call it will ask you wich dialer you want to use by definition you mark the box and choose app dialer and thats it...
i try it, before post sorry for my english but dont delete those apps from system the solution is right there.
just press thanks if i help you
Hi...
I am currently using Neko95 GingerSnap, and, since i tried MIUI, i loved the UI, i use ExDialer.
When i missed a call, the notification only disappear (automatic) if i open the stock app.
I Linked exdialer to ex partition of sd, rebooted and converted to sys app (Link2SD).
You still have the stock apps, but they are small...
The next thing that i will try, after consult the community if it works, is to, before flash, exchange the stock apps for the ones that i will use... (if someone that reads this can tell, please...)
With best regards, Shaib Lftg
Are you talking about extracting the rom than replace the phone and contacts apk with the dialer and contacts you plan on using ie...rocket dial and renaming it to phone.apk and vice versa

When you get to calling somebody, it doesn't give you an option to choose what to dial with? I have dw contacts and use that different dialer
Otherwise go to phone and delete saved defaults
which dialer you use to call out is up to you. there is no default dialer.(edit: default is set when click on call link. use to call when link is clicked from web or email. to clear go into manage apps and click clear default) when you want to make a call and select phone you are selecting the dialer so just select ex dialer instead. if you want to delete the stock dialer then delete contacts.apk. this deletes dialer(phone) and contacts but ex dialer includes contacts.
Amen thanl you

This is how it looks wile on a call dpi is 260 i have install dw dialer and ex dialer but still this one comes up when making a call. There must be some thing rong on my end maybe

are you pressing phone icon? if so that is your problem. you have to press the ex dialer icon to get into it. phone is the dialer. you cant change what opens when pressing phone. that would be like wanting youtube to open when you press gmail. it is only the ui not the actual phone. if you want to only use ex dialer then put a shortcut to it in place of phone. you can delete contacts.apk so the stock dialer and contacts are gone.

I did delete contacts apk and still when using ex dialer or any other that same one still comes up
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
what are you doing to get that dialer to come up? pressing phone or link from web or other?
There is a setting for one hand dialing and yours is set for left hand.
I click on ex dialer i delete the contact apk allready but it still comes up ill give it one more try
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
if contacts.apk is deleted that dialer should not be in your system anymore. the stock contacts and phone icons should be gone. you didnt delete contactsprovider.apk by mistake did you? and clicking on ex dialer should take you to ex dialer not the stock dialer. what happens if you search web for something with a phone number and click call tab from web page? first time should ask what app you want to use? what are your choices?
If you are set at 260 vs the 320 stock, it'll look that way, no?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
Yes setting to 260 will offset the stock dialer like that and not ex dialer.
What Rom/mods/themes are you using?
Am om blackstar vll rom is perfect i just want tp chage the dialer all in iy

I just installed blackstar vii and ex dialer and cant reproduce your problem. When trying to open ex dialer i get ex dialer not stock and deleting contatcs.apk from system/app completly removes the stock dialer(phone) and contacts icons. Sorry but i am out of ideas.
