Hi all,
Can't stand the ZTE dialer, using the pixel dialer but nearby places doesn't work, a feature I used all the time on my Nexus 5x.
Any solution?
Mike
No one!?
I just use the Asus dialer and contacts app on the Play store. Works great for me
I had Google dialer and contacts working on 6.0 but not working so far on Nougat.

I have it working on 6 right now as I have the EU version, not had Nougat yet.
But the big missing feature is nearby places search, so handy.
Mike
it is working on stock nougat.
check this topic; https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-google-dialer-t3557412

So the Android Authority review said that the dialer is not compatible with Google Voice. This is huge for me. Can someone test this? Try a 3rd party dialer?

But if you put the phone to your ear, it lets you use voice commands to choose who to dial.

Sorry, but that has nothing to do with Google Voice. What you are referring to is the voice feature of Google Now. Thanks for the reply though

Going off of the article, I think that it means that you are unable to route Google Voice calls via the stock app. Some potential work-arounds might be to use Hangouts Dialer to make calls and/or if possible, download the stock Android dialer APK or a 3rd party dialer and make all Google Voice calls through that instead.
Will have to wait for more information/reviews to see what the full extent of it is.
That is what I figured, but this is very strange. This is the very same issue I have on my Mate 8. Unfortunately, at least for the Mate 8, using a 3rd party dialer does not resolve the issue. Hangouts dialer lacks noise cancellation and other essential features.

Just to clarify, Google Voice works with your Axon 7?

How does google voice and the hangouts dialer differ?
It routes your calls via your carriers normal network, for example VOLTE or 2G. It also allows your device to use it's native noise cancelling features, which are much more optimized than Hangouts Dialer

I just tested it, works fine on my phone?
It's on mine. No mods. On 7.1.1 March.
While, for now at least, Google Now is much more functional, Google Assistant is here for the people who wanted it.
Edit: I think it has the same functionality nowadays as Google now. Well heck. Cool.

Huh - you are absolutely right. I was expecting an app update, and yet here it is. Thanks Google.
Funny enough, the wife's Nexus 6p doesn't have Google Assistant yet.

I used to have HD Voice (VoLTE) working on my 6P on Verizon, but have recently (for the past few months) realized it no longer works. So I went to the Verizon website to enable "HD Voice" and it shows "Not Compatible" for the 6P. Does anyone have VoLTE working on Verizon?
I am on PureNexus 7.1.1-20170215-OFFICIAL with ElementalX-N6P-4.06, Vendor: NUF26K, Build: NOF26W
Edit: Updating for anyone else who might be experiencing the same issue.
After a response from user mademan420, the difference I saw was mademan420 had the My Verizon app installed on their device and I did not have any Verizon app(s) installed.
Installing the My Verizon Nexus app made my device show as "Compatible" under HD Voice in the Verizon app and on the Verizon website once again. HD Voice works now.
For anyone also inquiring, for now HD Voice aka VoLTE only works from carrier to same carrier calls between compatible devices. It will not work on cross-carrier calls, although there have been reports of carriers testing with some users and compatibility in the future.

Just to confirm, I am not talking about simultaneous voice and data. I am talking about HD Voice, where if you make a phone call with someone else with HD Voice on Verizon, you get the HD symbol in the phone app.
Also, what ROM are you on? Do you have any Verizon apps installs (My Verizon)?
Does your Verizon account show your 6P as compatible with HD Voice?

Great. I installed the 'My Verizon' app and now it shows HD Voice as an option on their website and in the app. I was able to enable HD Voice and it works again.
Thank you for your help, I knew it had to be a possibility still since it worked in the past.
I never had the My Verizon app in the past, they must of changed something where you have to have the app to get HD Voice.

Daydream is working for me on my s8 plus with AQ5 update.
But it is kinds glitchy.
Maybe it's the rom I'm using but i don't know.
Any one tried it yet.
Sent from my SM-G955F using XDA-Developers Legacy app
It wasn't available after the AQ5 update...they just made it available within the last week or so...and you have to download the corresponding apps off of Google Play for it to work..
Can anyone help me out how I can get the google phone/dialer app on our 6T. I have the T-MO version and obviously it's not yet unlockable. Is there a non-rooted version of the google dialer? I just hate the stupid dialer and sms apps that come with the stock OS.
It's upsetting that OnePlus doesn't allow us to install it from the Store. We should have the freedom of choosing what works best for us.
You could search apk mirror for the google dialer. Just search google dialer apk and you should see a website not too far down called APK Mirror.
Not sure if allowed, but try this one. (Mod, if this needs to be removed, please let me know or feel free to do so, thanks)

Not sure off hand. I just came from a Nexus 6 and that had voice mail app in dialer. However I just tried this app and it won't install. You could try searching for a variant of this app

I tried other variants, it didn't install either. It's a shame that we are being forced to choose something we don't want. Trying to download from the Store - tells me my device is not compatible, which is a load of crap!
Can't wait to unlock my phone.

Lol yeah that was the first place I tried too. I saved all my apps as apks from my old phone and tried to install them on the op6t. I'd say all save 4 installed. And the ones that did6were Google apps. I'll keep searching and let you know if I find anything

What's the solution? Just picked up my 6T and would prefer the Google phone and contacts.
Try the last beta from the following thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...google-phone-v14-0-175904292-bubble-t3708218.
Change the app to default phone app to get the visual vm tab after installing
Hey ozzmanj1, can you please let me know the solution as well? Thank you.
Out of interest what makes Google Dialer/Phone & Contacts so popular with people ?

I used the version 24 non beta apk. Works like a charm

The search in dialer works very well, it can be the fastest way to get a number for a local place. The spam block is somewhat less effective but still a lot better than nothing. I'm looking forward to getting the screening which I suspect will be coming our way. I sent my Pixel 3 XL back and that's one of the things I'm missing.
Version 25 is working great

Same here. Google has indicated that call screen is only going to be available on the Pixel 3 for a while.
I hope someone can grab it and put I on our OP6t!!

The apps are more streamlined and fit better with the overall Google environment. Not to mention call blocking feature and scam call screening is amazing
Yeah, they've said that about a number of features but we had the stuff pretty quickly; sometimes within weeks. The force is strong with our developers! I'm sure you're aware of that, I'm just stating my agreement. In a way it's kind of sad; the stock dialer is pretty good, it just lacks a few killer features. Who know, maybe the one plus 7 will see some improvements in this area?
The link that has been posted kindly above:

Is definitely the one to use/follow for Google Phone/Dialer from here on in, unless notified otherwise, is that correct ?
