Is there any way to put HTC Dialer and Contacts application to non-sense rom, such as cyanogen mod?..
Because for me stock dialer and contacts application are awful, and I can't find any another applications as good, as made HTC..
Is it possible?
Try DialerOne.
Thanks, DialerOne is good..
And what about screen during call, with horizontal slider, is there another one in Sense style?
In response to installing HTC's Dialer and Contacts apps, it can't be done.
Any update on this ? Getting the HTC Sense dialer and contacts on a rooted EVO w/ CM 6.1 ?
The default Android in all black sucks, compared to the nice Sense dialer.

You cannot use HTC system apps on Google devices because they use totally different frameworks and other stuff. It would be so much easier to build an app that is similiar to HTC than to use the original HTC apps.
alternate Programs to Sense UI ones
For those of us that know that the sense applications cannot be used on non-sense roms, I beleive the true question is where is a list of the best HTC replacement apps. Most importantly for the dialer and the contacts but also for other things like the calendar and weather/clock etc.
I know HTC does this on purpose so that they can have specific things about their phones that are better than the standard phones on the market. But it seems like if the apps were replicated and then still used on HTC phones that it wouldn't be an issue. Just my rant anyway. But the main deal is just having a comparable apps list since the sense apps HAVEN'T been replicated outside of sense. Anyone?
im kinda surprised no one commented on this. fwiw, i just downloaded the Dialer One app and I'm kinda digging it.
I switched from HTC One to AOSP-driven phone, and Google dialer is an ergonomically disaster.
Any news on best HTC-like dialer replacement?
(Dialer One seems not exist anymore)

Hey,
Ive been searching for a contacts app similar to native one from HTC Desire which is perfect but slightly slow when browsing. I havent found any yet. I love Handcent SMS instead of the native app. So is there something similar for browsing and managing contacts?
There is a Contacts app and widget similar to the HTC one with the pay version of LauncherPro.
Try Dialer One.
I have LauncherPro but there is only a widget which is great. I will try the Dialer One
Dialer One is slightly slower when browsing contacts. Probably due to loading pictures at contacts but it is great app...
hello,
I dont wanna open an new thread so maybe you cann help me:
I've seen an launcherpro people widget with an kind of glass effect, maybe you guys can help me, how to implement/change these in launcherpro plus?
I searched through pages in development but couldn't find anything on it is there a way to make the picture widget to work on CM7?
No htc widgets will work on cm7. They rely on the sense frameworks.
You cant even use the sense widgets on stock rom if you use a different launcher.
Thanks, any widgets similar to the one i am looking for that can be doeloaded from market where you can swype to change pictures
Not that im aware of, if i use one at all, its the stock one that only lets you pick one picture.
is it possible or the dialer and contacts have too many dependencies on the rest of sense?

Not possible, requires the HTC Sense framework which is closed-source and damn near impossible to reverse engineer. The closest you can get are 3rd party dialers like aContacts, DialerOne, or DialerTwo.
i'll give those a try. i can't believe the default dialer is so primitive
I personally use Dialer One and don't miss HTC Dialer anymore
does it show profile photos from facebook btw?
can you link contacts with their facebook profile?
Sorry, but you must check it for yourself. I do not use facebook

From memory, yes.
But these dialers never put different sources together as good as sense from desire hd...

You can try Phonebook 2.0. Almost the same.
Hello just wondering if it is possible to replace the phone and contacts with something from stock...
I feel ya, I can't stand the dialer and contacts on TW. Only way at the moment is to install CM12, builds for the different variants can be found here on xda

Why not try "Rocketdial" at the play store.
It's excellent and it's a 3 in 1 app.
It has contacts, dialer and optional full screen caller id all in one app.
It has a whole lot of options too. ( fully compatible on all android phones.
Check it out here:

Have a happy new year!
i am using ExDialer since almost a year now... i find TW dialer app boring...
I find that all these dialer apps simply overlay on top and route to the the TW dialer anyway. I tried a few of them.
I have used rocket dial, exdialer, angel dialer, and some other 2 or three, very disappointed, horrible lags, in some cases, first appears the stock dialer, then the replacement, yes, I think, they are redrawn over the stock one, so, its worst to use them for me
Try touchpal contacts or contacts+. Anyway for me iprefer the default dialer. It has a lot of functions
