I'd really like to change my default phone and messaging apps to Fongo, which is a Canadian VOIP app. However in Settings>Default Apps, Fongo isn't listed. For Dialer it just lists the Phone app, and for Messaging it lists Hangouts, Messaging, and Titanium Backup.
Thanks

You are probably better off just setting the default messaging app to be GoSMS, then hiding the native messaging app with your launcher. I found that removing some unwanted apps such as GTalk caused problems with others (mainly google ones)
I have Handcent and the CyanogenMod messaging apps and the both receive the same data and handle the same data, I only use handcent because the (quite older) ROM that I am using uses an old CM Messaging app which doesnt allow me to select from contacts.
If you do decide to remove the .apk's or .odex's be sure to back them up first before deleting them in /system!
Good Luck!
The answer is yes.
Hello all
I got into a strange situation
I installed titanium backup and started uninstalling system apps. Without giving much thought I uninstalled stock and dailer apps since there are lot of apps in store that do the same thing. But after doing this and installing alternative apps from store, my facebook contact mobile numbers are not integrated into these apps. I tried with lot of apps. But none seem to work. I selected facebook account in options menu to sync. I tried with ubersync too.But it won't sync my contact mobile numbers.
Stock app from Motorola used to do that easily. I have apk files of these apps. But I don't know how to use them. Kindly help me to get out of this situation.

Is there any way to remove the stock email apps. in the stock ROM of the N7? I want the only email app. on my N7 to be MailDroid Pro..
If the stock email apps. can be removed, is there any way to set MailDroid Pro. as the default email app.?
Best bet is freezing it with titanium backup. I think you need paid version.....but it is well worth getting paid version!!
I freeze email on my phone and n7 always.

No need to remove stock email app. You can just remove your account for stock email if you have already set it up one and then use another email app.
or if you really need to 'remove' the app, use a root explorer app and go to /system/app and remove email.apk
titanium backup will let you uninstall as well.
Ah ok. Installed Titanium Backup. Looks like it will let me uninstall the Gmail app. and the stock email app.. Are there any other apps. or system dependencies that require the presence of either of these built-in email apps.?
Is there any way to make MailDroid Pro. the default email app.?
You could just disable it in app settings. I have done this with several of stock apps that I never use.
I got a GS5 yesterday, and I love it! But I have one issue. I'm not a fan of the stock messaging app. I tried Evolve, Chomp, Handcent, Go SMS, and Hello SMS. My issue with every single one of these apps is that my Facebook contacts do not show in them. I've gone through all the settings I could think of and couldn't find a solution for this. My 10 google contacts show in there, but almost ALL of my phone numbers come from Facebook. I'm new to Android, so if this is a simple fix, I'm sorry. My facebook contacts work just fine in the stock messaging app, and show up in my phonebook, but not in any third party apps. Halp!

A simple Google search suggests that it's a Facebook issue. Facebook allows your phone or a site like sync.me to access your FB contact info. But doesn't allow any third party apps to do so.
The Handcent FAQ explains a workaround to sync your FB stuff with their app -
