Android 11 incoming call screen - Google Pixel 4 Questions & Answers

I absolutely hate the scrolling number on the inbound call screen. Is there any way to disable it and have it just show the bloody number without parading it across the screen?

[Q] is there a way to disable the default caller id?

since im currently using the 'full screen caller id' app, everytime i hangup or pickup a call, the default caller id pops up at the end for a second. it doesnt seem to be interfering with the call quality but i would like it to not show up just so it would look nice.
any tweaks i can do??

[Q] Receiving Call UI Screen

Hello,
I love this phone N4 but i don't really like the GUI when receiving call. When you need to pull to left reject the call and pull to right to receive the call. Sometimes i got the phone upside down and did that in the wrong way around (which i plan to receive the call but i rejected the call instead). So just wondering, is it possible to change the GUI when receiving call? like have a clearer (more colorful buttons) to receive the call.
thanks.
i'm sorry if there's a duplicated thread, i did try to search through.
Try something like Fullscreen caller id from the Play Store.
exDialer is nice.

what happened to my incoming calls screen

Guys - my incoming calls screen has suddenly changed.
The buttons to accept and reject have changed from a circle to swipe to a button to hit.
More importantly, the ability to respond to an incoming call with a pre-written SMS (a feature I use a lot) has disappeared.
Does anyone know what this is about or how I can get that function back?
Thanks.

Blocked Call List - Quickly Accessing, Searching and Sorting

This question is not specific to the Nexus 6P, but that is the phone I carry.
I add 2 or 3 phone numbers (telemarketers) to my blocked call list every week. When a telemarketer calls, I (1) hang up, (2) go to the call log, (3) tap the call record to expand it, (4) tap "call details", then (5) select "block number." That's all very simple.
The issue is that now that I have dozens or hundreds of blocked numbers , when I miss a call, there's no easy way to see if the missed call was from a number on my blocked list. A missed call from a blocked number looks the same as a missed call from an un-blocked number (unless they're in my contact list).
I can scroll through (but not search or sort) my blocked call list by (1) opening phone app, (2) tapping "Settings" in the primary menu, then (3) tapping "Call Blocking." This presents a list of all of the numbers that I've ever blocked, but I can't search it and I can't sort it.
In a perfect world, the Call Log would somehow show a flag for missed calls from blocked numbers so that I don't have to search the list to see if the number is blocked. In an even more perfect world, a tap on that number would take me to a detail page showing all the times that number has called and been blocked. Finally, the blocked number list would be both searchable and sortable.
I think that most/all of this could be accomplished by a 3d party app - for which I'd gladly pay five bucks. There are lots of call blocking apps on the market, but they all appear to operate separately from the Android native call blocking function.
Q. - Any suggestions on how to make this better?
if you miss a call using stock dialer.app call blocking, and the number is on the block list, there is no record of it in your call log.
The whole point of blocking the call is so there is no trace of it.
>>> The whole point of blocking the call is so there is no trace of it.
I disagree. The whole point of blocking is not to be interrupted by a call from an unwanted caller. The point of a log is to make a record of incoming and outgoing call - and attempted call - activity.
then in that case you should use do not disturb.
call blocking is just that, blocking a call.
Agreed. Don't ring the phone, but I would like to see a log of the blocked calls, so I can tell how persistent a spammer is.

Answering phone calss

Doesn't matter how I set my phone up I can't seem to answer calls
It rings and if I lift it up the lock screen appears but it doesn't show an incoming call.I unlock it expecting it to go to incoming call screen and it doesn't it shows the home screen.If I then select the dialer it goes to call history not incoming screen .Tbe incoming call only rings about 4 times before ending so By the time I have done this the caller has rang off ,am I missing something really simple
Thanks for any help
I think this happens when your default app configuration has no dialer selected. touch settings->apps->Default/Standard apps->dialer
take also a look at the permissions screen of the dialer app
