[Dialer] Lollipop - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

someone has tried to use stock lollipop dialer, do you think i have to enable root to use it?
someone knows if the apk is the only thing needed?

I'd like to know that too. As I've played with G4 for a bit and really think that stock Google lollipop dialer and contacts apps are really beautiful. So wanted to check if there's any way of replacing the dialer when I get my G4. Thank you

Try Ready https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ready.android. Has nice material design and a few other features.

[QUOTE. Has nice material design and a few other features.[/QUOTE]
Thank you for suggestion, however I tried it already and its very very far from Google dialer or contacts design. I'd love if there was G4 Google edition with G4 camera app but I guess one just can't have all the best. Thank you

yep am using this for now, i bought the pro version too
it's a pity i have a small picture instead the fullscreen one in lollipop, but i can live with it
but would be good to find a way to use all the lollipop stock dialer+contacts
i wanted to root it to try, but seems on other phones didn't work (probably some libraries missing)

I really hope that one day Google will push dialer and contact apps to play store. They've done amazing job on these on lollipop

Please not request warez applications.
tried it out (it's still on my phone, in fact). the concept is sound but the execution is flawed. i liked the idea of app groupings, but the default ones provide a very narrow choice and i could not figure out how to add more groups. also, it opens All Apps by default. unless your phone is over spilling with apps, why not just find what you're looking for in All Apps
at the moment, it feels like a novelty but it can be improved
Tapaspoken by my GT I9003
The paid version is out,right? I would not mind buying this thing if I were to be so much concerened about looks!

I don't recall any red bubbles on my sensation so it must be a sense 4+ thing. Anyway, that's probably part of the sense framework. However I can't tell if you're referencing the little popup with that happens when you get a text, if so that can be enabled via the messaging app's settings.
Nova launcher. Install its Tesla coil add on that provides the bubble notifications.

Yes, you can have bubble with number on any app. You have to buy Prime version of Nova and Missedit app

Simple Request

Can someone give me the files/apk for the game launcher. i want to put it onto my Much i5 but my Xperia Play died. Has anyone done this before if so can you also give me the link to that.
I didn't know where to post this so if this is wrong sorry in advance.
The game launchers will work on PlayStation certified devices only so if you want it on a non Sony phone your gunna probly have to do a bunch of build.prop tweaks and probably more then you will care for

Well, too bad I searched all over the place and found nothing good except the fact that it needs Sony stock rom to use by xda source.
Do you seriously need this so much? Actually I like its UI, but cant figure how to maximize its usage like u can manually add(XPlay optimize) any apps into that launcher, so I gave it up and used Snapdragon Game Launcher instead. Now using Smart Launcher, it sorts things out nicely so I don't need game launcher anymore. However, the PS Vita-like of your MUCH i5 is very nice indeed!

No i don't need it. I was just curious, cause I get bored of launchers very quick I wasn't fond of the Snapdragon Game Launcher, but Smart Launcher is one of my favorites. I'll post the files tomorrow for the MUCH i5's launcher so you can try it for yourself. :good:

Yeah same here. Its a pity this could have been a top selling launcher for anyphone if he focused on it and put it on google play.
heres the apk for the MUCH launcher. it was very unstable on my htc one x when i tested it but who knows. also there is going to be a page of apps that arn't on your phone just one by one remove them then pinch the screen in and delete the page. its some kind of ad page for MUCH's Market.

GEL Launcher for Moto G

EDIT: Google Now Launcher is official on Google Play! Unfortunately, you need GPE Moto G to get it. Otherwise you can simply download the .APK, it will still work on standard Moto G. According to XDA you need 4.4.2 to actually get it to work though, but maybe it does work on 4.3? I'm not sure. Here it is!
ARTICLE:http://www.xda-developers.com/andro...-and-gpe-devices-apk-mirrored-for-all-others/

Hi everybody! This is the Google Experience Launcher from nexus devices and i found an APK that works with our Moto G.
I posted this because i read around the 4.4 ota threads and some people didn't like the regular stock launcher and they wanted the google experience launcher instead.
Well, here it is! :good:
Works on KitKat AND Jellybean! Though i'd use it on KitKat so the experience feels better :good:
http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/1...once-you-get-your-kitkat-update-apk-download/
Here is the link! All you need to do is to download it and then just install the APK! Works perfectly on the Moto G.
Also saying "Ok Google" works perfectly.
All credit goes to android police for the APK and Google for the launcher. :good:
An addendum to your post: It will also work on Android 4.3. I used it on my HTC One with CM 10.2 and CM 11 and my Moto G with stock 4.3 and 4.4 and it works perfectly on both versions.

Done
Thanks for uploading this! Interestingly, and sadly, I noticed the dialer doesn't include the KitKat "busines search" feature. This is something I would have used a lot, so I'm sad to see it not included. It's evidently a problem on the MotoX as well, so Motorola must be leaving the feature out of its KitKat builds for whatever reason.
GEL is great, I like how I get to choose how many home screens & choosing widgets/wallpaper the old school way. One thing I do miss is having the perm shortcut to the Google play store visible in the appdrawer

One thing however, how do you switch back to the original launcher if you want to. Short of uninstalling GEL

If anyone is interested, the touchless control "hotword" feature does work. I can say "ok google" on home and speak a command. Under Google Settings > Voice, Language must be set as English (US) - English (UK) does not work. The 'Hotword detection' option should be available there.
I habe the problem that the icons are not really sharp when I use the Google experience launcher.
Has anyone the same problem or a solution?

From my understanding that's because it was made for nexus 5 with a bigger screen and better pixel density. Since our screens are smaller, it makes the icons larger and not as sharp.
Sent from my XT1034 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Anyway to keep the GEL and get the icons smaller and sharper? Kinda ruins it for me .. Although the main reason I wanted this was for the improved dialer.

Confirmed working on Moto G running GEL. As mentioned in the video, only certain themes are compatible. Stark works fine and free theme Black.
There is an article on Forbes.com suggesting GEL will be officially available for all devices at some point in the future:
While the hack to apply GEL to your device is simple, the fact Google keeps updating it to work increasingly smoothly on an ever wider variety of devices indicates it will soon become an official option for all Android handset owners.
Should this happen it will be a key moment for the future of Android. It gives users who want the stock Android experience the option to have it without being forced to buy a Nexus or ‘Google Play Edition’ device yet it should not alienate manufacturers who can still sell their devices with their own skins as differentiators. In fact GEL may even see manufacturers up their game as many third party skins for Android are poorly coded and slow down the user experience. With an option to dump them for a stock Android experience at any moment this tardiness is unlikely to continue for long.

Seems like there are lots of cool features in Android L. Really looking forward to it coming to us via a custom rom. I'm loving RDDT ND2 w/ Ktoonsez kernel right now though.
