Hi all,
I'm looking for a dialer apo to replace the stock dialer, since the Samsung stock one doesn't even have a proper T9 dialing option.
I have tried ExDialer, and it's really good but it doesn't show Facebook profile pics in the dialer.
Does anyone know of any better dialer apps that are fast and functional?
Thanks.

Few things that come to mind:
- Dialer One
- RocketDial
- Go Contacts
- Touchpal Contacts
Let us know how you get on.
Dev Team
im currently using dev team stuff such as:
go sms
go contacts
go keyboard
go dialer
im pretty much using the same thing as you but if you install AOKP rom, it should fix your problem with the face book contacts thing as its part of the features for the rom
let me know how you go
Ex Dialer is awesome now
Dialer ONE it's my favorite
Dialer one for sure.....

Thanks guys for the replies, but I tried each one of them and NONE can pull FB pics into the dialer!
They're there in the contacts and even in the stock dialer but they simply don't show up in any of these custom apps! Other pics like google pics etc show up though....
Does it work for you? Am I doing something wrong here?
Am using hax sync. It works fine and fb pics show up on exdialer.

Ok.
How does hax sync integrate with the stock contacts? Is there another tab for it like Facebook and whatsapp or does it just sync the photos within the fb account?

Its just like another fb or whatsapp account. It also syncs high res images which is nice and in the options you can choose to have htc style notes on your google account contacts so that when you do a full wipe and re sync it remembers the linked contacts.

I have used almost all the available dialers and to date found the Ex dialer to be the most user friedly one with good themes as well. Its a matter of personal preference too. For someone like me the main thing is not to have to stretch my thumb to the top of the screen to press buttons specially in S3 which is bigger. All the relevent common buttons are in the lower field. Even the search button of the contacts in ex. Go dialer is also very good but for me cannot beat the Ex dialer.
If helpful ...press thanks
I believe u should go for....
- go dialer
- ex dialer
These are the best options....

Thanks for the explanation. Since it's a paid app, I just wanted to confirm.
So this app syncs phone numbers and other details too? After installing this can I completely disable the normal Facebook sync app?

I don't think it syncs contact numbers. Only pictures. For me, thats what was important as I have telephone numbers on my Google contact list for most of my fb contacts. And it syncs status updates as well. So if you click on a contacts update in hax sync it takes you directly to the contacts page on the facebook app in your phone. I have disabled contact sync on my fb phone app.

The incoherent design of ICS -especially between the contact- and sms-ui and the rest of ICS- is one reason that hesitates me to buy the galaxy nexus. Hm as my previous speaker already mentioned: ICS is just one month out. Im confident that with the next major update the problem will be solved itself. Until then you can use gosms with ICS theme from the market.

Hi there
I once saw someone's screenshot of their ui and they had their contacts with big pictures. They said they changed the DPI. How do I do this? I am using paranoidkangdroid.

I may be mistaken, but I believe those are contacts that have been starred. Try viewing a contact, tap the star on the top right and see if it provides what you'd like. Please share if this is what you were looking for.

Not sure I know exactly what you are asking after reading other replies.... But if you want to change the dpi that's done in the ROM settings or system settings under UI.

sir you are correct.

Well the obvious solution would be to favorite all of your contacts, but that's far from ideal.
As for a legitimate solution, I am not aware of one as of now. I'll share if I come across one.

So I love asop and all the cm10 ROMs. I just got the S3 two days ago and I do like a few features from the stock ROM and was wondering what any of you have done to duplicate these features. I liked the pop up browser. I found one on the play store but doesn't let me pick it from a list when I open a gmail link. The other feature I liked was gallery's pop up video player. I know mobo offers this but was wondering if u have a simpler way to have the same effects. Thanks

Clear the default list in applications/Internet. See if that will make the list pop up.

Try this first, but if this still doesn't work, was the app free? If not pm me a link with the apk I can mod the apk to enable the option to open your Gmail link with the pop up browser.

What is your favorite/preferred calendar app for keeping track of events/appointments/meetings etc. that will also appear in Google Now? For example I have a job interview at 10am on Tuesday and I know the exact address.... I wanna be able to set up an appointment on my calender and have it show up in Google Now. Thanks for all inputs!

I've been enjoying using Digical+. It is a paid app though.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.digibites.calendarplus&hl=en
I know it syncs with the Google Calendar, but nearly every calendar app does that. So once you create an event, it syncs it back up to Google Cal, then in turn will work with Google Now. I don't create appointments all that often so I can't speak how well it works 100% of the time, but I have created a couple and it worked fine.
Best bet though as BHurst mentioned, stock calendar will work the best I'd imagine.

Hello,
I am wondering if someone with the skills to do do, could cook up a mod to include emoji/ emoticons into the messeges app? It's that one MIUI feature I've always missed. It's also really annoying when iPhone people send emojis and they turn out like this: ¤⊙℃.
If anything has any interest in seeing something like this worked on, like this post! Maybe someone will get inspired.
Thanks

Textra is such a nice and lightweight app, with individual notification settings, emoji and reply from notification panel (it opens up a small popup rather than the whole app). It's running SMOOTH on my One.
