no call forwarding option on Google Dialer app (Lineage OS 15.1 + Open Gapps) - Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Questions & Answers

there is an option to forward calls entirely or selectively when using most stock Android One / AOSP phone inside the Google dialer app settings itself. (MI A1, A2, Nokia 7 Plus, Zenfone M1)
The option is also available on MIUI, Samsung, Huawei stock dialer apps. But the Google dialer on LineageOS has that option missing.
Any suggestions how to enable "call forwading options" on LineageOS + Open Gapps on Note 5 Pro ?

I suggest you ask ROM specific questions in the LOS thread. If you feel that you found a bug, I encourage to submit report it in the JIRA bugtracker.

This feature is not available in Los or any Google dialer apps. I am using custom Roms from 3 years and I've never seen such options in any Aosp/Google dialer apps.

Yes, call forwarding option within settings is not available when using the Google dialer app on LineageOS. But it is definetly available on Google dialer app settings on AOSP like roms on Moto G5s, Zenfone M1, Oneplus. Android One devices like Mi A1, A2. It is also available on stock MIUI, ColorOS, Funtouch, Touchwiz ROM dialer apps.

It will be very better If some one ports any of those dialers

go to Settings in dialer
then Calling accounts
then select your sim card
then GSM call settings
then call forwarding

Thank you so much!
I was wondering "how come this basic feature is missing!"
And this is bad UX, very disappointed.

Did you need to add Google framework to get dialer to work?
I have a mod that I use on my phone from "Blu" that adds Google dialer, and it gets playstore updates. I did not try it on this phone yet. But I do miss the spam call block from it, maybe I will try it now.

A50 Dialer Alternatives

I've been using mostly Moto phones for some time where I can message, add contact, block, and copy numbers directly in the Dialer. The only option available on the Stock A50 Dialer is Delete, which is pathetic. The Google Dialer is shown as non-compatible from the Play Store. I've seen some people talk about using Hiya on Samsung phones, but it's clumsier and has no option for a Dark Theme. I'm wondering what other options are out there without root? Thanks.
try this port of the google dialer for non compatible phones

Thanks much...found an alternate older port this morning and it works...heard this one was newer on that thread. This morning I got a dropdown in the Samsung Dialer that had some of the functionality I was looking for, but I can't bring it back up...yet. Hopefully I'll figure that out as well.
Thanks again!

Please help decide - MiUI dialer and messaging on PM2pro vs RN9proMax

Hi All
I have ordered Poco M2 pro recently (6/64) at a pre-exchange price of 12339 INR (Post exchange 11339)
I have the option to order Redmi Note 9 Pro Max (6/64) at approx. 12610 INR (Same phone not available for exchange here)
Two main questions and opinions I need from you please:
1) How much better is the Redmi note 9 pro max camera compared to Poco M2 pro? Is it worth spending extra for Redmi Note 9 pro max over Poco M2 pro?
2) Although, noone is mentioned it specifically, looking at some of the videos in youtube of Redmi Note 9 pro max post MiUI 12 update, it seems it retains the Mi dialer and messaging app. Is it correct or it also loses these and gets the google dialer and messaging apps? I guess Poco gets updated to google dialer and messaging apps. Please clarify on this. It is important for me to be able to use Mi dialer and messaging apps.
I am not much concerned about ads as I will anyway debloat both using MIUI debloater and disable all ads.
Please help decide which one I should go for.
Any other difference or something which I should consider?
Also, is there a known reliable way to install the Mi dialer and messaging apps on Poco M2 pro without rooting?
My device is updated to miui 12 and i don't think its on Google's dialer and message app..
Why it'll update to google dialer?? When it has its own OS..
Check SS below poco m2 pro
Probably you are not aware that all xiaomi, redmi, realme, oneplus new devices are coming with google dialer and messaging apps instead of their own dialers and messaging apps to comply with some european regulations. Only some country specific roms like that of indonesia retain miui dialer and messaging apps. Xiaomi has officially confirmed this will continue in future also. I saw review videos of poco m2 pro miui 12 update on youtube and the dialer and messaging apps have changed to google after the update.
You are using the stock rom or any custom miui rom? @abhi.s4u

Yes. Thanks for clarifying. Good to know m2 pro is not losing mi dialer. Recently launched poco x3 comes with google dialer in Indian also.
One more question. How is the speaker and headset audio quality. Heard some bad reviews about audio quality of m2 pro.
Neither its bad nor its good.. in the budget its okey..
One or two times i face earfone jack issue i mean sound didn't come in the earfone when plugged in..
Well its just random after restart its okey..

Mi 10 lite 5g, use of Mi dialer, sms and calendar

Hi,
I just got mi mi 10 lite 5g with global rom. Before I had redmi note 7, wich is a perfect phone made xiaomi. I discovered the awful google dialer , sms and calendar not smart at all compared to whom have been used mi since 7 years with xiaomi phones but also before with others chinese phones capable to receive mi roms ( wonderful Zopo) .
I know that for privacy bla bla , mi has forced to use the google package dialer ...
In the other hand, my redmi note 7 has just been updated to miui 12 and to my surprise the dialer sms and calendar are kept to mi.
It seems that for mi 10 lite 5g version I have to install the indian Rom, could someone clever route me to the miui 12 indian version link ?
In case of available one, do you think that I can update firmware without loosing my existing data , sms, photos etc... ?
Thanks in advance for your hints !
I have the Indian version of Mi 10T Lite, its sold by the name Mi 10i 5G in India.
The Indian version has Google Dialer and messaging app, which I don't like at all.
The Google Dialer comes with Call recording Facility, but it begins with an audio notification "THIS CALL IS NOW BEING RECORDED", and I don't like that at all , I feel it defeats the purpose of call recording in most cases.
Thank you for the reply.
Really disappointed with these google app..
Miui app are much smarter.

Just wondering, what extra features MIUI dialer and contacts have opposed to Google apps?

It is smarter and able to use recording of call, remembering automatically the used sim for contact call, less clicks and confirmations for call dialer , for sms editing and calendar as well.
Really smarter !
I have using it since more than 6years even i have used mi rom ported on another smartphone device.
When you use it, you will see the difference.

Fair enough, though I don't find anything missing in Google dialer/messages. Call recording is not allowed in my country anyway and I use one SIM only. Any call I make is one or two clicks away. I had been using several SMS apps over the years, but eventually I just settled down with Google messages. Calendar is feature lacking, but for this I have Business calendar app which is miles better than anything stock (be it Google or MIUI). Personally I'm very glad that Xiaomi switched to Google apps and in fact I removed pretty much all remaining MIUI apps from my phone (most of them refuse to launch without accepting Xiaomi data mining anyway).
In each case, Chinese ROM should have all the MIUI apps (or use xiaomi.eu ROM).

Question Alternative to Google dialer and message

I tried to get used to Google dialer and message apps since the oos12 update but I really can't, is there any way to get the color os or oxygen is dialer and message app to work? Or a decent alternative to gapps?
Thank you
I use ColorOS global. I have all that stupid google removed from Oxygen OS.
Or on OnePlus forum/community you can find Oneplus dialer/message/phone app. I guess that works on A12.

I'm very interested in doing this. How did you strip out Google apps etc?
I mean that all beautifull gestures/apps that are missing from OxygenOS (removed/replaced by BS google) are in colorOS.
You should try True Phone. Definitely perfect dialer app with lots of customization capabilities.
