[Q] Samsung Dialer/SMS functions in JB ROM? - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

On samsung stock roms (froyo/GB) if you ware in contacts/or mms/or phone you could drag your contact and swipe left for making phone call, and swipe right to send message (or maybe it was the other way). Is there an addon to JB ROM which gives you this kind of functionality?
Somebody suggested to install TW, but it only gave me launcher, and i'm using nova and like it. I really miss this feature in JB/ICS roms.

exDialer app from Play Store has these features. Works fine in JB

Yep, I use exdialer, but it have no integration with sms/mms app. but thx for answer

What do you mean no integration? On exDialer contacts, swiping right will call, and swiping left will send sms to the contact.

Yes, but on mms apk you can't swipe to make a call, or can you?

No, but tapping on the contact within sms/mms app can allow you to call.
I didn't notice swiping contact within sms/mms will call the contact in GB.

Can I delete the default messaging app off of my nexus one?

I use handcent and I'm sick of getting 2 notifications everytime I get a message so I wanna delete the default messaging app
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
Just go into settings on the stock messgaing app and turn off notifications.
But I want it gone like forever

What for? Why does it bother you? It doesn't take app space.
You can't do it without root, anyway.
Does Handcent rely on the stock app for info or would it work as a standalone?
Anyways, disabling notifications from your messaging app can be confusing the first time. First you'll have to hit menu>more>show all threads. When you are on all the all threads screen you hit menu then preferences (settings) and all the way towards the bottom, uncheck notification.
i was thinking handcent relies on the stock messenger app, but i am not sure any more.. it could be stand alone, best way to find out is pull the stock messenger app from system/app then do a remove and test.. if get FC or wierd problems jus push the apk back in and reboot!

Question about the messaging app

Is there a way i could put the vanilla messaging app on here not the samsung messaging app?? I'm rooted and i was just wondering if i can get the default mesaging app instead of samsung because i like the default better
Have you tried handcent? Its pretty cool once you get it all set up the way you like it. Look for it in the market

I've tried that already... I like it but i dont like how you get 2 notifications...How do u cut off the notification for the original message app??
In the setting of the Messaging app hot menu then click setting scroll down to the notifications section. Uncheck the checkbox that says Notifications. I did it when I tried Handcent.

[Q] Samsung Messaging app (GB)

Well, i have the stock messaging app, and using TW launcher 4.. so its literally stuck on the home screen. That being said, ive decided to use that app because i like the TW launcher. My problem is, because that app doesnt have the popup notification, i downloaded SMS popup, and now whenever i reply to an sms using SMS popup, it doesnt mark the message as read. And it also shows a little blip with (#) of unread messages right there on the home screen.
How can i fix this?
Thanks
probably something the app maker needs to fix. I would email them. I use go sms right now and when I read it through the pop ups it kills the notification.

lol, the app maker is samsung i dont see them fixing it anytime soon. I would use go SMS but i like the stock tw launcher... And i dont think its possible to replace the message icon (already in the launcher) with go sms. If this is possible, please let me know.
Thanks
I think for sms popup you have to disable notifications on the stock app and then use it...

Sorry, u do disable it in the stock sms app. I knew 5 minutes after I typed but I had a busy day and never got back to relieve myself of the stupidity I typed.

SMS Popup does not have any options to disable stock messaging app notifications.

That's only half of it. That only takes out the notification in the notification bar and the ringtone/vibration. In the TW4 launcher, the messaging app gets a little blip, like IOS about unread message. That is what i want to erase. I set the notification on the stock messaging app completely off, but that blip still comes here .
Its literally a circle with the number of unread messages in it at the top right side of the application shortcut. ie. (2)

Call log

Is there any way to remove messages from the call log? I want to able to see sent/received/missed calls without having to scroll through all the texts I've sent that day. None of my previous phones have ever included messages in the call log. It's a bloody nuisance
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
I believe that's an Android thing. You could always use a custom Dialer and call log app... search the market.
go to logs, press the touchkey in the left and under view by option select ur preferable option..
also, give callLog+ from the market a whirl.
Thanks guys. Can't find callLog+ in the market. Can anyone recommend something similar?

Contact names not showing up in messaging app.

Whenever I get a message from someone, all I get is their number. I realized it was only happening with my facebook synced contacts. I believe its because the facebook contact number has dashes (555-555-5555) and when I receive a text, it doesn't (5555555555). Is there a quick way to fix this? Or do I have to add every number and join it to that persons contact?

What message app are you using?

Sorry that I couldn't get back until now, but I'm using go SMS. But it does it in any messaging app. I tried checking the stock SMS app, and the same thing happened.

It is due to the way the numbers are saved. You will have to link them and make sure they are set up the same way as the ones that work.
If you're using google sync too you might want to go to your contacts and edit your google contact details cuz I think the contact list uses google details over facebook ones
