[Android Apps and Games] lukesky:
tried this.. quite decent.. not a fan of the ads though.. I wish there was a sms shortcut for each contact like there's a call shortcut for each contact.
[Android Apps and Games] thinkpanda:
Thanks for trying. Do you mean you would like

1. clicking on contact means composing sms rather than make a voice call? or

2. one more button or something like that for each contact so that you can start composing sms in one tap?
[Android Apps and Games] dancer_69:
Nice design, I would like a silver instead of black color for bar and keypad option though.

Please add greek keypad language and search. Here is letter layout:

-----------------

αβγ δεζ

ηθι κλμ νξο

πρσς τυφ χψω

----------------

P.S

Here is the greek translation:
[Android Apps and Games] lukesky:
I would like option 2. Right now when i search for a contact, and a contact is found, once i click on the contact, it auto dials, which is fine. If i click on the little man icon on the right side of the contact name, a smaller sub menu appears listing down the contact's info. so i'm just thinking if there's an option to replace that little man icon with a sms shortcut so that if u click on that, then it will use the default mobile number and bring you to your default sms app with that default mobile number.

oh yes, a couple of feedback points .... but how am I going to clear the call logs with angel dialer? I couldn't find a way to do it.

And I don't know if it's just me but the graphics of the app don't seem too sharp, it's a little bit blurry. Not sure if you used lower res files so that the app will load faster ?
[Android Apps and Games] thinkpanda:
Thanks for you opinions. Regarding to call log deletion, just long click the contact and have a look at the last two menu items. :)

What device are you using? Maybe I miss some environment specific images?
[Android Apps and Games] thinkpanda:
Thanks for your comment. May be I make it an option for "match from beginning" or "match anywhere"...
[Android Apps and Games] surviveland:
thanks , can i download with my dolphin browser?
[Android Apps and Games] lukesky:
Ok, I went to the Call Log section, long clicked a contact appearing there and the last 2 menu items is Share as vCard and Copy to Clipboard. I don't see anything related to deletion at all. I would have thought the logical thing would be having another option to clear logs when i press the Menu button regardless of what section I'm in.

I'm using Desire HD. But you know what? After changing the theme from black on white to white on black, it seems a bit sharper now... though the Angel Dialer icon is still a bit blurry when it's beside my other icons on the App drawer, but no big deal.
[Android Apps and Games] thinkpanda:
I believe if you open the Android Market URL with Dolphin Browser, you will be redirected to Android Market app. :)
[Android Apps and Games] thinkpanda:
Oh my fault. Will make the calllog deletion available ASAP. Sorry for that. :(

I created hdpi images for the app, but I do notice at emulator sometimes that it is little bit blur as you mentioned. I am not sure why.

[Android Apps and Games] foalsrock:
This one has a lot of potential,

In terms of functionality it works great and has a lot of features that other dialers are currently lacking.

However, I do feel like the UI is out of place. It looks like an iOS port.

In my opinion apps that deal with core functionality (such as dialing) should try and go along with the native look of the OS.

P.S. props for having Hebrew T9 implemented this early! :P
[Android Apps and Games] domenukk:
Will give it a try now, although I am very satisfied with dialerOne. ;)
[Android Apps and Games] Tx Redneck:
Testing now on HTC Inspire on CM7 N83
[Android Apps and Games] MicBeast:
I have The Simply Honey Gingerbread ROM (2.3.3) installed and my default dialer automatically closes whenever I tried to use it. This has solved my problem...

Thank You. I like It.

Only thing is I think you should allow it to be themed

Really just the colors, nothing too fancy.
[Android Apps and Games] DAXGr:
Crashes on x10mini when typing number that relates to Greek contacts with first name and last name. Sent crash reports that say DAXGr.
[Android Apps and Games] mlkjuggalo:
if your phone is rooted just download Absolute system it has the option to remove or block adds
[Android Apps and Games] borodin1:
I'd prefer paid version with no adds.
[Android Apps and Games] igas:
+1 for paid version without ads.

+1 for more native feel

Just tried the dialer, looks promising! (read about it on the frontpage)

Some rough edges: it crashed while searching (report sent) and the option to start with an empty search menu appears not to be working.

Question: what it's the location permission used for?

Cheers
[Android Apps and Games] thinkpanda:
0.9.6.2a quick fix

handling Greek and long query properly. :-)
[Android Apps and Games] thinkpanda:
Fix is available at market that take care of your problem. Sorry for that.

Location permission is used for ad retrieval.
[Android Apps and Games] mawardi:
Ads are just annoying. Where's the premium one?
[Android Apps and Games] Pumeluk2:
I downloaded it few minutes ago and looks great until now. It has just the features I#ve missed from my Sense dialer after I switched to CM7.

BTW: I would prefer also a premium version without ads ;)
[Android Apps and Games] Kurupt1:
As others have said, a premium version without ads would be great!
[Android Apps and Games] Techvir:
ANother request here
[Android Apps and Games] :
Just use ad-free.

-Remember, Android hell is a real place and you will be sent there at the first sign of defiance-
[Android Apps and Games] DAXGr:
Hahaha lol glados
[Android Apps and Games] DAXGr:
If you release a premium version there will be cake and grief counseling!
[Android Apps and Games] junguit:
The keypad is a bit slow. If I type a number real fast it shows the numbers a bit after I have pressed them. Maybe it's my phone? Htc hero running GB...
[Android Apps and Games] thinkpanda:
If you are using a multitouch bug-free devices (i.e. NOT Desire / Nexus One or something older), you may try to turn on the multitouch keypad in preference. It help for some people who type with two hands.

PS forgive me, forget my advice. I didn't notice you mentioned Hero
[Android Apps and Games] junguit:
I really don't mind it being slow typing for me to type cuz everything else

is so fast. Been looking for a good AND fast dialer a long time now, this

one has great potential!
[Android Apps and Games] bouzouki:
messaging option

this dialer is great... i love the look, and also it isnt too complicated. two things that i would like added, if possible, would be to have a text message option in the dialer, like having a button specifically for sending a message to a specific contact right from the dialer. and also is there a way to show contact photos in the dialer?
[Android Apps and Games] TheUntouchable:
If i type in a number which is not already in my phonebook, there is no option to save it as a new contac, or am i wrong?
[Android Apps and Games] thinkpanda:
try long click the number you entered :)
[Android Apps and Games] Cj719:
From everyone's experience would this be considered a good replacement for the dialer from sense, as far as features and usability
[Android Apps and Games] eicodi:
Very nice, but i have MIUI rom...

Great work!
[Android Apps and Games] Dadi68:
post a link for APK please

I cannot download it from market
[Android Apps and Games] thinkpanda:
try this

http://market.goapk.com/pkg/thinkpanda.dialer

It is China-based and may be slow for other area.
[Android Apps and Games] TheUntouchable:
Ah thanks! So easy.. ;)
[Android Apps and Games] ableblock:
Great Dialer - feedback

The vibration is way too strong & long on my phone.

Besides unnecessary battery drain, it is hard to differentiate dialing feedback when pressing numbers quickly.

Other than that, this s a slick app.

Visually clean and relatively quick.

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] TheUntouchable:
+1

Can you make it possible to change the lenght of the vibration?
[Android Apps and Games] Flavio:
Very nice dialer.

One thing I would like to see is an option grouping of same contacts in the Call Log. If you call the same person a couple of times it now shows every call.
[Android Apps and Games] thinkpanda:
It is intentional.

The "search" page without query shows the consolidated call log. Only the most recent conversation of a phone number is shown.
[Android Apps and Games] thinkpanda:
Unfortunately there is no way for ordinary Android app to control vibrate strength. But I will add an option for user to select vibrate length.
[Android Apps and Games] thinkpanda:

[Android Apps and Games] bras0782:
Totally agree with this - it's my number 1 requirement for any dialer, but I've yet to find one that does this. :(

Great dialer overall - thanks for your efforts :). It's quick, and I really like the icon on the right which shows/hides other details for that contact. It's great that you can dial an alternative number directly from here, without having to go to the contact details page first.

A few suggestions:

What zxzyzd mentions above.

Option to 'View call history' when long clicking a contact/number. This is a very useful feature in the HTC Sense Dialer.

Faster refreshing of call log after making a call, or deleting entry from the log - currently there is a few seconds delay.

Confirmation pop-up when deleting entries from the log, in order to avoid accidental clicks.

Option to use the phone's back button to hide keyboard, and then exit on a second click. Currently the back button exits the dialer.

An idicator to show if a number is the 'Primary' number for the contact, to help distinguish the main number where one contacts has multiple numbers. Would be particularly useful when clicking the icon on the right to see all numbers for a contact.

These are all very useful features which would make this excellent dialer even better.

[Android Apps and Games] hegeli:
Very nice. Few little details I noticed:

Say I had 3 missed calls..

- Entering dialer / call log doesn't clear the android notify, have to manually clear it

- Call log doesn't show each of the consecutive calls from same number
[Android Apps and Games] thinkpanda:
Unfortunately Google don't let us clear the missed call notification with third-party app since Android 2.3.

[Android Apps and Games] Pumeluk2:
After testing some other dialer, I am back at angel dialer. I would like to by the pro version, but there is still an option I am missing (or maybe I am to stupid to find): Is there a possibility to sort contacts by lastname and show them in the order lastname, firstname?
[Android Apps and Games] thinkpanda:
Angel Dialer 1.0.3

Minor update.

In the version, when phone call is finished, the search result page will be updated immediately to show the latest call, rather than a few seconds of delay.
[Android Apps and Games] thinkpanda:

Minor update.

Added sorting option. have fun.
[Android Apps and Games] thinkpanda:

Mainly a bug-fix and optimization release. It consume much less memory. On my N1, it consume 30% less memory for free version and 50% less for pro version. Your mileage may vary.

Fix: Search page becomes blank occassionally

Fix: various FC problems.
[Android Apps and Games] Agent5150:
why is that angel dialer uses Android dialer to actually make the call. when you end the call, you are presented android dialer rather than angel dialer. am I missing a default setting?
[Android Apps and Games] goliathcobalt:
Am I just missing it, or is there no speed dial option? What I'm looking for would be the ability to long press on a number and it speed dial a contact, and if no contact is associated with that number, it prompts to add one.

Otherwise, fantastic app!

Slows down, freezes, always indexing ...

Hi,

firstly, notes to the developer; good job on a nice looking, and intuitive interface.

However, i've been having some troubles.

Admitedly i'm using a somewhat underpowered device (HTC One V),

nonetheless, this isn't bitcoin mining we're talking about, it's a dialer,

and I don't expect the kind of freezes and things that i've been seeing with this ....

(paid version btw).

I have some questions:

1. What is it doing when it is 'indexing...' ?? Indexing what ? (It seems to do this far too often).

2. It seems it has been a while since the last update. Is the project dead?

3. Seems, besides being stuck indexing often,... for long periods of time, to freeze... How can I work around this?

It seemed to go so well and quick when I first installed.

thanks for any help.
[Android Apps and Games] Listy2021:
You having a laugh?! Development was abandoned nearly 2 years ago :eek:
[Android Apps and Games] svaens:
the laugh is on me

Nope .. I guess I missed the note. But i'm just a new arrival on the android scene, and before reading down to the last post on this thread, I installed it. It is anyway nice, so shame if development is abandoned.

Can someone suggest a better dialer that might out-perform this one? I can pay out a fiver for a new app, but I can't justify the cash for a more powerful phone, when ideally, the software mine runs should simply be less buggy, and more performant.

[Android Apps and Games] TheVenetian:
I'm in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.

I have a concept for a simple, text-based game that would work well in Australia. If it is successful in Australia, there is no reason why other international models could not be created.

Ideally, I would like an Australian Android Developer to help me with this. I have little programming skill, but have got the business model behind the game, as well as all the logistics and nuances of the game fully planned out.

As I said, this is a text-based game with minimal graphics and would probably be easy for someone who is even moderately experienced.

I would of course be willing to share all the profits.....

Please contact me if you would be interested!
[Desire General] doddsie:
hey there guys, just wanting some advice currently i have mine and a friend i know using RCMixHD v3.6 i think its great, if a little problematic, but my friend whos phone i rooted and installed RCMixHD v3.6 isnt really any good at all this and if problems arise he has no idea how to fix it. So what im looking for is the best rom to get him using that is trouble free, but that also gives more space for apps, IMO the only problem with these desires is the lack of space for apps.

So guys you lot are the experts, whats the best desire rom that gives more space for apps, preferably i think without partitioning the memory card. cos i think thats whats causing the problems he gets.
[Desire General] VanThor:
If You don't want to partition SD card try one of AOSP roms, but the best way to get more spare for apps is to partition SD and flash A2SD+ rom.
[Desire General] Meaple:
Go s-off and flash either Oxygen or CM7 hboot then the corresponding rom. Personally I have CM7 because I find it better. Anyway, I'd you need to, you can setup A2SD later if need be but you do get 300+ MB of storage with these hboots.

I don't like to use A2SD because for 1, I have a slow card, class 2 and second, it can really **** up.

[Desire General] sudkcoce:
Yeah do that.

[Desire General] Pitbull_Raven:
I'd rather go with Redux or Oxygen. and trick them out with apps.
[Desire General] michallp:
I'm using RCMix S 1.6.1 A2SD+ and it's really fast and stable. I've got lot of, ~50 apps, and phone running without any lags. Updates are very often ~1-2 in a week. It's even work on s-on phones. Only condition is sd partition, but if you want a lot of space you need to have one.

[Desire General] euqilobaid:
If you want ROM with sense i would go with Leedroid 3.0.6 (stable, fast and has App2SD out of the box). If you want ROM without sense, i would go with Cyanogenmod 7.0.3. It doesn't come with App2SD by default, but you can easily install it.
[Desire General] kjusupov:
Well, maybe you should just try out?

Start with oxygen or devnull, install apps, make sure sync all to cloud.

After that try other roms, everytime you flash new rom - get your apps and settings from cloud...

That's what I do when I'm bored and wanna try a new rom....
[Desire General] Cactus42:
Might want to check on that, the RCMix team are responsible for some of the best, most stable, and most regularly updated ROM's on the HD/Sense3 side so they DO know how.

I would second RCMix, problem is it's by the same guys..

i go with reflextsense 2.05 by now, and downloading.

I have used cm, oxygen, insertcoin, leedroid, but my favourite of all is Reflex S by Neo. Currently using 2.0.5, but may switch back to 2.0.2 as I prefer the newer messages app.

AdamG's DevNull is simple small and stable.

[Desire General] dam0z:
I rooted my Desire I think a month ago now.

Since then I tried Modaco R26, Cyanogen 7.02, Redux, Defrost and since two days I am using F1 Cyanogen.

I like Defrost very much, it's Froyo (love the froyo white statusbar theme) and it's small and fast. I also like Redux, Gingerbread, but also small and fast.

F1 is Cyanogen based, stripped from lots of stuff that you can dl yourself from the market afterwards if you want. Very nice too.

Some odd thing (to me), I have one or two apk's, like simple clock widget, in some ROM's (Defrost) it will install in English and I will see it in English in Market too, in others (Redux and F1) it's only available in Chinese and if I install the same apk it also turns up as a Chinese version on my phone..

Hi guys,

Thought i should let you know that if you use droid gram reboot from the market you can go straight to the manual recovery screen and wipe data etc.

Gotta be easier than all the key presses

[General Topics] Iturs:
So my phone is now stuck at the HTC screen after downloading and flashing the coredroid v6.5 ROM using ROM manager.

So I can boot the the clockwork menu but down volume will not move down to select recovery it just does hboot and ask if I want to flash the Radio I can not pick anything I know the down volume works cause I can use it to cancel the radio flash and I use power and down volume to get to menu.

At this point my phone is pretty much uses less I saw a post on the developer forum for coredroid v6.5 with similar issue but he said he did recovery and flashed it again I am not able to pick anything. If I let the phone boot shows HTC screen and just sits there I have to pull the battery to do anything else.

Any help would be great.

Update

I copied a PD98img to the SD card and flashed it back to stock rooted rom. But i tried to update to 6.5 again using only the dalvic wipe as directed. It reboots to clockwork then aborts flash and reboot then just hangs on HTC screen and I have to reflash it with the PD98img again. I redownloaded the coredroid v6.5 and same thing aborts install then reboots and hangs on HTC screen. I had to flash PD98img back on it then updated clockwork mod and rebooted to manually manage rom and installed coredroid v6.5 with out issue that way not sure why it did not work with clockwork booting to it but got it working now.
[Captivate General] lalord69:
my phone keeps giving notification that usb is conected when is not.

Also, phone only power on while usb conected and charging.

I recently rooted((using superoneclick)) and flashed to clockwork, running 2.1, unlocked.

Now, i cant even enter clockwork recovery. I tried ti 3button fix and it was a not go...

What can i do?

EDIT: i think it has something to do with my bootloader because i flashed to cm7 everything was going good but it was reseting every 10 mins so i tried to go back to 2.1 and everything went to hell and i had to use odin to flash 2.1...
