Ok people tested this with another person and he confirmed also.
1)Make sure advance calling is off
2) Activate developer options if u havent already done so.
3) find windows transitions and change to off for all three
4) clear all left open windows using the far bottom right button
5) Go to dailer and see the keypad gone.
Any ideas why this would be? and for me the only way to get back is changing the transistion back to .5 for all three and clearing all the windows again. Its odd. i didn't try with advance calling because advance calling is still alpha stage in my opinion.

Thats been there from ages!
It has nothing to do with advance calling though.... i think its something google knows but didnt care to fix cuz lollipop is already out with a whole new dialer! One work around is press on the dialer icon and press back again... You get the dial pad!

Moto Maxx here, same thing. But if you go back and then again to the dialer it does show up.
Its been like that forever.....I have mine set to .5 because of it. Annoyed the crap out of me.

I'm not sure it can be called a bug when developer options are merely for developer testing and development scenarios. Its not being used as intended, so unexpected results show up occasionally.

Excuse me about my ignorance... its been one hour im going through the menus and it started to pissing me off....
i somehow disabled the phone icon on the ADW launcher. Anyone can tell me how to enable it again?
dialer icon more correctly
You should be able to drag and drop the icon to the dock.

not sure wat ur talkin about but i think if u hold down on ur desktop... pick activity...create custom shortcut... click activities... scroll down to dialer. let me know if ur talkin about something else.
Thanks for your replies.
See Screenshot below to see for which icon im talking.
so are u saying its missing from that certain spot? or just missing in general? or missing from the app drawer?
Missing from the certain spot.
It was there yesterday, i was playing with the menus/options and i probably disabled it by mistake probably.
Thanks for the help. Plenty of key words in your replies to sort it out.
Just reseted ADW and its fixed.
Dont know if theres an option to enable or disable it but reseting fixed it.
Hi, there's an option to turn the left and right softkey on and off in the ADW setting.
I can't create screenshots but try to explain it briefly here (it's simple) although you have reset it, it may benefit others who come across the same problem.
so in ADW settings..
> Interface Settings
there's a Turn On/Off Left Action Button option.
check it to have the phone icon on, uncheck to take it away.
Effectively you can disable to right action button (web browser) as well.
You can also turn on two more extra button as well, but haven't had time to figure out how to set the shortcuts... only have 2 blank keys theres at the mo.
Sorry for, if there're, any inaccurate labelling as I have mine in T.Chinese so not sure what the exact English labels are... shoudn't be far off though.
Hope it helps~
Hey, is me again!
Was just having a quick mess around and found out is as easy as just drag the icon to those empty button areas, that's all !! And i was trying long presses and going through many pages of menu options!! ha-ha
Anyways... [email protected]

Hey Guys, Ive got an infuriating problem. I cant pulldown my notification bar, my notifications just sit there taunting me, or at least they did till I remembered the dedicated nav key option lg offers but still I don't want to have a non functioning notification bar. I didnt do anything to my phone around the time this happenEd, just picked it up and found I couldn't pull it down. I've tried restarting, reflashing and wiping. I've even got it back to "unrooted" status in both the settings and download mode incase its a digitiser issue. Any thoughts guys? Id rather not loose my pride and joy for a week at the least if you guys have some ideas.
Thanks for your time and assistance :fingers-crossed:
I jave tje same issue are you using the xsposed because thats about wen mine happened. After i updated i noticed the center clock freezes and notification wont pull down. How ever a system ui reboot(soft reboot) fixes my issue

I might have done something with xsposed, maybe hiding the location icon. I reflashed the entire phone so Im pretty sure that includes a ui reboot somewhere in there. Also I found out it works in landscape mode, I can just pull it down like regular. Using the dev features "show touches" "show touch data" in none of my touches are recognised where the notification bar would be (top 1/4th inch near mic) even when in landscape mode.

I enabled things, not many, if any. They would have been enabled for a while tho before the problem arose. Wouldn't reflashing the system wipe out any software changes?

I just picked a Unlocked Verizon G2 today that is having that same issue all other functions seem to work fine.. the phone is in perfect comdition and my friend said he never dropped it or any thing, he gave me a deal I jus couldn't pass up.
I can see the humour to this ... if I can fix it quickly.
My phone is talking to me ... everything I touch it tells me what it is - needs double tap to go anywhere and two fingers to scroll. Bloody weird. What have I done? Does anyone know? I can't use my phone at all. I have pressed something accidentally it seems? I wonder if someone has played a trick on me. ANy help please would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Can I delete this, please. Solved.
Don't delete it. For anyone else who accidentally stumbles upon this, it's TalkBack. Go to Settings -> Accessibility and you'll see the option to enable or disable TalkBack.

Had this happen to me when I received my first 6p. I thought it was defective but I was able to complete the setup and then navigate to settings and perform a factory reset. Good to know there is a setting to turn it off

In Nougat 7.1.2 when using dual sims, the Green call button showed the two carriers you were using and you'd just press which one to start the call...
Now in Oreo the Green call button is the typical round circle, and when you tap it, now you get a popup window that says, 'Call with', showing both the carriers and you click on one.
Has anyone using dual sim cards noticed this? I really don't like this popup window and the extra step involved here, and would love to have the option the way it was in Nougat, if possible...

Request the APK of the Nougat version of the phone app from someone who has Nougat installed. Install it, and disable the Oreo version of the phone app.
Pls go to settings --> network and internet --> sim cards --> unders calls select preffered carrier.. that's all
What DoR3M3 wants is, the phone dialer should always show two "call" buttons for two sims,
So that he can easily choose irrespective of what's there selected in settings
Nougat dialer had that, which even i loved... In oreo its removed.
Me too want it back.

Yes someone understands! Why developers remove great UI options, I'll never understand! LOL
After all, doesn't anyone remember the day Popups came to town? Well, now some bone head developer makes this into a popup window choice, as if a popup anywhere is acceptable...
By the way, who removed this, Google or Xiaomi? We need to seriously round up the troops and get this bloody put back the way it was, because it was better!

I think it's Google.
A bad move...
If I figure out how to get it back/ or at least an alternative, I'll let you know
To clear some air. On Nougat, community and user criticised Google and Xiaomi for using AOSP code to build AOSP Ron when this phone was mentioned to be Google supported. Meaning, Nougat' dialer is directly from AOSP code and that supports dual call options.
On Oreo, Google and Xiaomi move comeletly to Google software and that is why now you see Google dialer(does not support dual call option like on AOSP) And messages app replaced. To name a few.
Hope this helps. In case you need the desired Dialer, try ZenUi dialer from playstore. It is great alternative from ASUS

Yeah, it's true. Earlier in N, I could delete call log of an individual in batch with an ease, but in O, I'm forced to delete it one by one, which is tiresome and irritating.
But did you noticed, even if you call from the other sim from ZenUi dialer. The call is made from the preferred sim.
@Eshwar123 thanks, I hope you or someone can figure out how to put it back...

Ever since I upgraded to OB8, I'm experiencing a weird and very annoying bug. On every incoming or outgoing call, my phone app gets automatically "minimized" as if home button is always pressed. What I always see is the little green pill on top left which I have to always press to bring back the phone app. I have no idea how to fix this. Please anyone help. I'm on international version and unrooted.
Thanks
try google dialer and see if it happens theres a patched apk somewhere around here. also might be the picture in picture settings under settings> app> phone/dialer.
Thank you for your feedback! I tried Google dialer in the past, it was always preferred until the VM stopped working, then I was forced to switch back to stock dialer. I also checked the PIP settings but the phone app it's not listed there. I guess I'll switch to Google dialer in interim. Thank you.

Yeah same here on Google phone
