Skype / VOIP call takeover - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I am facing a problem since a few days. I use Skype almost everyday. Recently, I installed 'Olive Dialer' a VOIP software. Now, most of the time when I dial any number in contacts or a new number, instead of the phone proceeding with call directly, I get a small window where I have to choose ...
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
If I choose 7000, the VOIP software dials the number, and if I choose Use Mobile, Skype dials the number
I have to minimize skype by pressing back or home button and dial again for the call to proceed normally.
How can I stop those two from taking over direct phone calls?

Now this is getting extremely ridiculous. That pesky window is appearing almost every time I dial a number!
Is rooting the only way to get rid of this? Or is there an alternate option of preventing Skype and VOIP to takeover outgoing calls?

Have you tried clearing defaults? Go into settings, then application manager, then all, then select Skype, there should be a button called clear defaults. See if that works.

Tried it but didn't help.
Anyways, somehow the problem has been solved and only thing I remember is a friend trying his account in my phone. After I logged back in, there was no issue anymore.

Contacts (with Picture) on Today Screen

I noticed my friend's Treo 700w has a number of pictures as quick shortcuts to the contacts on his phone. Each one of these pics when clicked immediatedly calls the contact...
How is this achieved? Any idea, tools?
Same on my Linux phone. But not on Windows Mobile. MS prefers the "list view" instead of the "icon view".
You guys should read this board more. Sigh

i added the Treo 700w today contact hack. after installing it i realized that 90% of the time i use voice dial, it's just easier. hit the button on the side and say the name John Cell or John Home
Yeah, I use my phone as a PDA more than a phone. So, I don't fancy having an extra plugin that may be slowing down (the already slow Charmer) the phone. However, I've also notice that I've only like call 5-10% of the contacts in my phone, and it would be nice if there is an application that (say) open a new screen showing the name/photo of people that I call most often (or that of I configure). Any exisiting ones?
Hmm.. or I should consider using the speed dial feature

Skype 2.5 Beta Windows Mobile

Can be installed to memory card, you need to connect the first option is to use the wifi network or wifi and 3G networks can be (ordinary GPRS network can also be a matter of fact, but very slowly), is to be noted that the first sign in to your account, read Friends of information more slowly, if the failure to read a list of friends, you can log off after re-enter the account login. For the Skype phone function, there is no try, but the Skype phone version of the hardware resources or take up pretty big, the need to pay attention to.

It doesn't support it. Btw: I have tried this version in two PPC (Omnia and N560) with different results: In the Omnia it seems it sounds great but in the N560 the receiver heards something similar like the wind and the sound quality is lower than the previous version.
Greetings and Merry Christmas
on my htc touch (wifi) it crashes on outgoing calls after ringing :-(

Hide Sim Contacts

Do you hate showing duplicate contacts? Well after playing with the phone for 20 minutes i finally found out how to hide your sim contacts..
You will need a regdit program.
Go to HKCU"hot key control user"/Control Panel/Phone/Show Sim.
Change the default Dword value from 1 to 0
Restart your phone and you should be good.
Thanks!

yeah this is in the sticky @ Rhodium General, has been known since the MDA/Wizard days, as well as the option of using Advanced Config 3.3
thanks for playing
If you use the Tf3D HTC contacts tab, All People. Theres an option to view ALL, Contacts, or SIM. So no need to even do the registry.

Yes your right.. but knowing the fact that if your lazy like my girl and press on call button.. you will get the duplicated contacts and she gets annoyed by it so this is the way to turn it off

Thanks
thanks lets see if it works =)
Bad on 480x800 display (HTC Topaz)...
um....does anyone know weather it will block the call all together or will it cut the call after the first ring?
I've always wanted one.
Thanks for your efforts. This works - kinda. Stops the call (after a ring and a half) and the caller goes to messagebank where they can still leave a message - that you have to delete later. Notification of calls still come through. Nice interface, simple to use and I suppose it does the job - saving you from picking up the call to the blocked caller.
I do the same by naming and saving the caller as PEST in contacts. Same outcome.
The caller must think we refused the call because it calls one time and half.
Would be nice if it goes just to the message.

GS5 Caller ID readout.

WAIT! before you yell at me to disable talkback or to turn off voice commands! (I did search: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2733627)
I like voice commands, and voice answering. I HATE the read out, here's why:
I get a lot of calls from delivery companies and service technicians, its always a different number, so I don't save any in my phone. The readout is loud and kills my ring tone. I NEED that ringtone to tell if its a work call or a personal call.
On my previous phone (The GS4) the two options were separated and i didn't have this issue, i had remarkably little issues with it.
TLR I need Voice answering without caller ID readout.

I appreciate your response, but you didn't read my first sentence, or the last.
Going to that menu and disabling voice answering to get rid of the caller id readout is NOT the solution.
Anything can be modded on this phone, so I know it can be done.
