Hey
It isnt really a problem, but it kinda disturb me-when clicking on someone's name on contacts it immediatly calls him, is there any way to disable that ? for example, in galaxy S4-when you swipe the contact to the right it calls him and when you press it it shows info about him.
Please help me disabling that, thanks
Press on the contact image for options, use a 3rd party contacts application if that is useless to you.

That actually only occurs if you go through the Phone application. If you launch the People application instead, pressing on the contact takes you to the contact info.
Go for exDialer. Hands down the best, detailed and smoothest contacts/phone app replacement around.. For me at least. Try it.

I like to use slide security mode but it has a trouble is after ending a call, it always comes back to the homescreen even if before that the phone was being locked. I usually use with headset and put the phone in my pocket, it's so inconvenient with me
I found an app in Google Play Store name Lock screen after end call, it seems to be able to solve my problem. That app locks my phone after ending call ALWAYS, even before that I'm using phone and I have to press the power button and unlock it again. It makes me mad
So, could someone tell me an app or way to make the phone come back to the previous state/action after ending a call. Thanks !

Hello everyone,
I have had the Nexus 4 for a few months and am for the most part happy with it. I am not a power user by any means,but the pure android experience has been very helpful to me. I just started a new career which required a lot of traveling to different locations and scheduling and the calendar and navigation have been like a godsend for me. The notetaking apps like keep are great too. Like having your own personal assistant.
There are few things I still struggle with, particually on the phone end. I tranferred my contacts over from a blackberry, I think google did this automatically. It takes me a while to scroll down to a contact(voice recog does not work great for names) - is there a "better" way to set-up your contacts for easier acess or to enhance voice dialing? I feel it takes me much longer to find a contact than to set the navigation system to a new location. Anyone find a good solution for this?
Thanks,
Rick
Hello... I'm new here too... After using a blackberry I missed the name search here on Nexus.. The stock dialer in my opinion is ****.. Try exdialer..

Start dialing the contact name on the dial pad, this might only be a feature on custom ROMs though. If you drag the list on the right, it should scroll faster, going by letter instead of one contact at a time. This should work on stock.
You can search for a contact. Also you can add favorites for faster access to them

What he said. You can search for a contact in the Phone app by name.
Hello,
I am using JB 4.2.2 stock Unrooted.
When I receive a call, photo of the contact comes in the Half screen only. Is there any way to make it full? I dont want to root my phone and don't want to use 3rd party crap Full Screen Caller like app.
Is there any mods available?
Thank you.
Thanks for asking... I'm looking for a hack too...

I am trying to find out the same issue...please let us know if anyone knows about this....
I've been using Facebook Sync Hack since like ICS, let's you choose size of contact pic and resolution works awesome, some names don't sync automatically depending how you have them in your contacts vs what their FB name is though, but you manually link them once and its done forever.

I know there's a modified MMS.apk in Slimbean that allows you to blacklist messages and calls from as many contacts as you want. I've seen it in a few other ROMS too. You can just flash one of those and not have an extra app. Or just extract the apk and move it to system.

I like root call blocker. It doesn't even make your screen blink

"Vault-Hide SMS, Pics & Videos"
Never used it for sms but works good for pics, I assume the sms is good too.

Try this...
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.privatesmsbox
It has no additional icon, you get into by dialing 1234 then dial on the keypad, and it's opens it let's you put anything from one contact there (sms, mms, calls) and you can only get into it by using the code. Also, the default code of 1234 can be changed, and the app doesn't require root. Also gosms has a private box built in to it.

I can +1 that. I use Vault daily and this is by far the best Android privacy app I've seen. It was just a SMS hider, but now hides photos and videos and even locks apps now!
Plus, its privacy is polished to the extent that if you press back from the app, it also disappears from recents menu

Shady SMS 3.0 PAYG
It may be the best, however, costs about 7 bucks but it's well worth it. The developer always updates and listens to his customers.
that's a built-in option with Handcent.
long press on conversation and select blacklist.

A perfect app to cheat your gf.. not only hide sms, but also hide the contact as well as the call register from certain contact.. Plus you can also hide the icon from you launcher and open it with secret code in dialer.

Hi all,
I love being able to add pauses to numbers, to enable me to redirect our support telephone at work from anywhere. But there is a snag. This is the number:
0211xxxxxxxxx,**700xxxxx#,#1

(x is a number, sorry, but wouldn't want anyone to use this)
This worked fine on my old Galaxy S2, with stock rom and with custom rom. On my Galaxy S5 it kind of works.
When I dial it from my contact list it does its thing and seems to stop at the second comma (this is only a guess...), after that the call stops and the redirection is not working.
If I do the same while on speaker, it works as expected.
Now I guess, that no one here will be able to solve my problem from this vague description, but you might have ideas to send me in the right direction. Could it be, that pauses on speaker differ from those not on speaker, for example in length?
Thank you for your ideas
Sven
I used to do the same for making Google voice calls for specific numbers, dial my gv # then pause, then 2, then pause, then dial then number I wanted to call, then press #.
I found on my S5 I had to do three comas before the 2 and two comas after it, or it would not work.
Also, try using the wait option in the "sym" menu

Hi finndo,
Thank you very much for your enlightening post! I was very surprised when I read about three commas, but I'm definitely going to try
The only thing I can't find is the 'sym' menu, where can I find that?
Thank you very much
Sven

EDIT: just getting rid of some erroneous words
On the dialer screen in a contact, when adding the phone number, should be in the bottom right, second one up.
