I just took the update to Nougat and I hate the little window that comes up when I receive a call on the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge. On Marshmallow, I had installed an old version of the Google Dialer ( v 2..05.07_rc4 I believe) but I am having trouble disabling the default dialer on Nougat. Does anyone know if it is possible to disable the default Samsung dialer on Nougat and use the Google Dialer (any version)? Or am I wasting my time?
Thanks!
re dialer
I didn't like the all white dialer in Nougat so I installed the material dark theme and that made both
the dialer and drop down menus look better. I would like the pixel dialer or something similar however
the one's I have tried (apk's) crashed.

Do you know of a way to make the notification drop down tray dark? Every theme I try doesn't change the notification drop down.

The quick menus are dark however the notifications are not. I notice now the blue led notification doesn't seem to be
working either. Short answer no.
I did get the led notifications to work after adding an app (light manager). I expect if I erase and reset it would work but
I don't want to do that at the moment.
There is an updated version of Google Phone that works on S7E Nougat. Search for "Google Phone 4.1.135571529-nonnexus" on apkmirror. It might not be the most current version (which is 8.x) but it still works and might not be as whacky for you as the Samsung dialer. Please note that you need to also download the Google Contacts app, because if you want to disable the Samsung dialer you are actually disabling the Samsung Contacts app as this is the actual "phone" app that shows up in your app drawer. If you want to disable the Samsung phone and contacts apps make sure to not disable any of the apps listed as "phone".
Hope this helps!

So then which apps do I disable to get rid of the Samsung dialer and contacts apps?
Also, what version of Google Contacts do I download?
Thanks!

Once installed you have to go to application settings and grant all permissions then choose this as default calling app

I disabled "Contacts" com.samsung.android.contacts the one with the orange icon and just that app only. I then downloaded the most current version of the dialer and I then downloaded Google Contacts version 1.6.20 which is the most current version.

Great! Thank you.
Were you able to get search results working in the dialer? That seems to be the only thing I'm lacking. Otherwise, this is awesome. Thanks again!

Is there any newer version of this dialer that syncs with contacts? Right now, the "contacts" portion of the dialer app shows every contact I've ever contacted ever rather than the customized list I have in my separate contacts app.
Thanks!

Hello,
Using an s7 g930f and wanting to replace the samsung dialer with the google phone dialer. The version I have is v8, I'm wanting to have ViLTE video calling ability, I'm using a rooted tw rom. I've read that the minimum version needed for the dialer is v13 or newer, I have not found a version that works on my s7, does anyone have this working?
Thanks.

Call me strange if you will but im after the original S4 Contacts and Dialer apps, ive recently put CM11 on my S4 and don't like the stock android versions.
I've tried other apps for phone and contacts and just don't like them. Samsung have brain washed me lol
How can I get the Samsung versions to work? I've downloaded the apps but they won't install, I assume I have to do something to enable them to install a a work?

You Can't, Samsung Contacts and Dialler require Samsung Framework, which is not available in AOSP.

hi,
ok it seems its some bug ?
This is wat i did,
on device.. settings/accessibilities /Services... turn off all "Services apps that is enabled.
eg. i had under Services.. Pushbullet, Greenify, Enhanced Sms. & Caller id etc. etc enabled. I had to turn them all off. Working 100%
Good luck
I found that the settings of text-to-speech options affects the talking calculator.
I just changed the language from English to any other language, then the calculator spoke the other language.
So, if the text-to-speech is turned off, the calculator will be quite. But no idea how to turn this off...

hi,
it is logical that if caculator "speaks" numbers etc. it is using a text to speech voice option. eg On my device Note 4 or my Note 3 or other, i have Samsung voice, Google voice or SVOX installed. If i disable it a lot of my apps won't work. This is not what is causing problem. (If you search around xda threads you will find thread where this solution was posted, unfortunately i did not save link at time) Try option in my post above and you will most likely see it works, but you have to turn off all apps listed in services.( The text to voice is mere a tool)
good luck

I've already tried every solutions I found on internet, and none fixed it. My calculator still speaks... lol
I have this as well
It is so stupid I will have to try these fixes later
Unfortunately I cannot disable everything in the services menu as I have a pebble watch and it needs it.
I guess I'll have to get a different calculator app.

OMG
i've been crazy lurking around for the possible solution of this stupid voice text on my calculator as well.
I had made a thread regarding this and people from here has no idea about the solution for this problem.
i went to the settings, manage apps, all and deleted google text to speech and disabale samsung text to speech.
thats the time it will stop working. BUT, once you close all your recent used apps the voice message will go back again! WTF!
after how many centuries of searching for a solution, finally!!!! the horrible voice is gone when pressing the
stock calculator. downloaded dodol launcher and used it for 3 days and uninstalled it!
voila!

It will work on an Odexed ROM also. Just rename or delete original stock calculator apk and odex. Then flash or extract fixed calculator apk and copy to system/app and reboot! !!

Finally figured it out on my device, it's the samsung text to speech engine causing this issue. Since I'm rooted i froze it through bloat freezer and it worked perfectly. I still have google text to speech enabled and that doesn't interefere.

I don't know if you are on MM yet but I noticed that there is a thing under App's (on MM) in settings where you can set what apps draw over e.g.. facebook chat bubbles. I think if you enable your apps that you want notifying you on lock-screen to draw over mode then it may show on lock-screen. Its working so far for my weather updates from google app... I could be entirely wrong and I am using a fairly wonky build of MM but I just thought I would offer my insight Best of luck bud.

I'm sure MM will fix that for you bud!
I do know the struggle, waiting on OTA's for us in New Zealand is painful. On top of the fact that before I went MM I wasn't getting notifications at all, calls missed cause it wasn't bringing the call screen up...all sorts of havoc.
Worst comes to worst you could try factory restore, then do the theme thing that other guy mentioned. You should technically have a default, it's weird you are missing it.

So I just found the Pixel XL dialer on youtube and it looks awesome, and I also saw the Nexus Visual Voice Mail and thought wow, that's awesome too.. So I tried to copy the Nexus vvm over to my system/priv-app folder, and modify the permissions to 775, but Root Browser won't let me change permissions and if I try to use Root Explorer it just shows a blank screen when I open the app (not sure if it's Nougat friendly yet), so I'm just curious if any of you guys have done this kinda stuff, and if so how did you manage to have success at it..?? I figured if it's the same DPI range, same OS, and files are even named the same, it should work right..?
Thanks!
EDIT: So upon researching this some, it appears that LG uses a "LGContact" file in system/priv-app's and not a dialer.apk, so I don't know how to go about adding in say, the Pixel XL dialer.. Hmm, oh well just figured it'd be a cool thing to try but at this point I'm thinking it'd probably screw something up if I tried it.. I'm still interested in hearing from those who have done this if you care to chime in..

I use an older version of Google Dialer without a problem. I had to sideload it but everything works fine except for voicemail - messages won't appear. The version number is 2.05.07_rc4. Google added a patch after that version that won't allow it to work on other phones. After installing it, you just select it as the default app for phone calls and it handles both incoming and outgoing calls. I'm not rooted and didn't have to change any permissions to get it working.

@RypeDub if you can get the messaging .apk off your phone before upgrading I can try to install it on my phone and see if it resolves the problem.
Kind of a manual work around but if we can get the .apk somewhere it'll at least be a solution for now.
How do you do that? I'll help out before I run the OTA fixer
I downloaded Package Manager: App info, APK Analyze & backup by Sarangal
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=sarangal.packagemanager&hl=en_US
In that app you should be able to "share" and fire it into an e-mail to yourself then onto xda, or possibly google cloud, or do a back up and manually pull it off the phone.
I'm sure there are other package managers that can do the same as well.

That looks like the Google messaging app not the default OnePlus messaging app. At least when I downloaded it that what it's showing up as and when clicking "view in play store" it goes to the Google messaging app. Either way I'm not able to install it as it's failing. I'll mess with it a little more possible tomorrow. Thank for trying!
