Anybody happen to have the apk to the HTC dialer? I'm using Mobster Rom and hate the Dialer for it. If you can upload it I would appreciate it and let me know what are the permissions for the apk. Thanks

Give me a bit and I'll see if i can pull it out of another rom.
Here you go: Htc-dialer.apk
Don't know the permissions. It's not installed on my phone. Just install it, and if any of the permissions bug you, delete it?

Any idea as to why I can't copy it over? I'm on mobsters Rom and tried copying it over to the system/app folder via es file explorer and it says failed. Tried it with other explorer and it says failed. I've given them permission using supersu. When I was trying to copy the 4.2 keyboard before it said the same thing. What the hell could be wrong?

This is what happened to me when I tried to install the HTC dialer apk a while ago onto mobster rom. The install failed

Are you sure that you mounted the system as r/w?

Yeah it's mounted. I found out that there was no space in the system folder lol but now that it's over and given the right permissions it still doesn't work.

How do I do that?
One thought I had was that your /system/app folder might be set to read only. You might have to give it write permissions. Also is the roms stock dialer overriding that one? Does it need to be deleted?
You can also try writing it to your /system/app folder in command prompt. Make an apk folder in your sdk-tools folder or wherever you keep adb and fastboot.
Put the apk in that folder. Then open command prompt in your sdk-tools directory (not the apk folder you created but the folder that the apk folder is in) and then use these commands:
adb remount
adb push \apk\HtcDialer.apk /system/app/HtcDialer.apk
You should get a little confirmation after a few seconds saying the file size and how long it took.
Or you will get an error message such as read only. This might help identify the problem if you want to try that method.

I can get it over via ES File Explorer. And I've set the permissions but it still doesn't come up as an option. I even tried deleting the stock phone.apk but some process kept quitting forcing me to have to re flash the rom. I just want to know after moving it via es file explorer will I have to do anything else besides set permissions?

Did you try clearing cashes in recovery after switching them

Yup. Still nothing.
