Display of Dialer instead of Call Logs - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys,
Is there any setting which I am missing, whenever I click on the phone icon. I am always presented with the dialer and then I have to scroll to call logs. Is there some setting where in I am always presented call logs (as in nexus4) and then i scroll to dialer?
Thanks again

When in the dialer, hit menu, and edit tabs.
Thanks Devs. From my VZW G2.

That is editing the tabs but still the dialer opens by default. Is there any way we can change it to call logs?

So it cannot be changed

I don't think it can. Your best bet would be to use a different dialer.

I just ran into a solution for this. It's not available as an option on the dialer but it is available as a setting on the G2 TweaksBox module for the Xposed framework. I installed it and enabled that option and it's working fine for me.

Changing the Dialer?

Is there a way to mod the dialer so that it's slide to call someone? I'm getting frustrated by the fact that the screen is so sensitive that when I tap a contact by accident, it auto-dials. Is there a way to prevent this? Thanks!
I would love this also

Forgot the name but someone talked about an app in the market that made you hit an extra confirmation whenever you hit dial.

Found! Thanks to donatom. It's titled "Call Confirm."

Disable vibrate when dialing.

I just switched to T-Mobile from Sprint, got myself a G2X and my girl a Mytouch 4G. Is it possible to disable vibrate on the stock dialer? We had this same problem on our previous phones (HTC Hero) and I thought they would include the option to disable it by now.
JUST for the dialer or when pressing pressing anything altogether? I'm not sure if you can for just the dialer.
Just for the dialer, but if disabling vibrate completely is possible, she would be willing to go that way.

I was looking in the wrong place. The setting is located in sound settings.

Changing default dialer

This may not be specific to the S4 but is there a way to change the default dialer to Go Dialer. I don't care much for the default dialer's aesthetics and would like to use something more customizable. I haven't had any luck. The only options I get after clearing the defaults for the stock phone and contacts app is Phone and my Sophos.
Go.

Im guessing your talking about Go Contacts EX while on your dial pad hit your menu key themes and you can download some I like the Iceblue Theme.
Im referring to changing the default dialer from stock to go contact/dialer. Even when intiating a call from go contacts the stock dialer and sophos are the only options I get to select from after defaults are cleared from the stock phone and contact apps

I'd like to know how to do this too, trying to use Dialer One as the default dialer, but I see no way to modify this.
I have the same problem. Just got Samsung Galaxy S4 Active. Dialer I am using to setup - Rocket Dial Pro version.
But there are only are only Phone and Skype apps in "Complete action using" dialog box.
Tried to reinstall Rocket Dial, add/remove from device administrators. I must admit, phone IS NOT rooted!
I will try to contact Rocket Dial developer, as I am using commercial version.
Likewise Motorola XT910

Similar RocketDial problem with Motorola XT910 (except different "complete action using" options).
Any useful response from developer? Thanks.

Change default dialer

I'm sure this has been discussed
But I'm on my xda app so it's hard to search threads.
How can I change default dialer app?
I have exdialer installed.
I cleared the data from my dialer in application manager.
I'm on a TW rom.
Default dialer really sucks

it should have asked you which you want to use just once or always, but at any rate, this will clean all app preferences. once you follow the steps below, open exdialer and it will ask which app you wanna use to make calls, choose exdialer always
settings> more> application manager> menu> reset application preferences
i try this in galaxy s4 and again i dont see the popu menu dialer i try and reset all phone ..

Google Dialer problem with pop up default dialer

After having selected the Google dialer as my default, I continuously am asked the question which dialer do you want to use it as your default dialer when I highlight a number and then ask to dial it. Is it me or are others having this problem as well? I'm running Android 4.4.

I'm having the same issue. I'm running Android 4.4 and Nova launcher. I've tried setting as default different dialers but when I click a missed calls notification I get the pop up asking for which dialer to use. I think I'm not getting the same as you when highlighting a number and calling, it straigh away shows the in-call screen.

has anyone ever figured out a way around this? the only thing i could think of was to modify the stock dialer.apk to remove the recent calls default intent, but i haven't been able to figure out a way to do that...i haven't been able to get services.jar decompiled to take the signature check out.
