I tried sideloading the 4.4 Dialer into my system/priv-app/ folder and yet it only crashes every single time


Well I tried it and it works fine. You didn't describe how you tried to install it though, making it rather hard to spot where you went astray.

I'd bet though that you didn't wipe the cache and data in the Application manager plus wipe Dalvik from recovery.

What do I win for being right.. ?

:)




ps: the md5 should be 65:1e:d1:f2:61:07:f9:6e:62:2c:81:08:83:c4:53:a3

You know, I would have loved if it had worked, but it didn't ... :(

I put the APK directly into priv-apps
set the privilages to 0644
cleared the data from the app
cleared the Dalvik Cache

... still force close... thoughts?

EDIT:

I tried just straight up installing it without it being a system app and it works just fine. Go figure...

Edit 2: Nevermind haha
Resorting to flashing via Recovery. See if this works

Edit 3:
Flashed via Recovery. Emptied Dalvik Cache/Cache on the way in. Still Force Closes.

Are you using a stock unmodified rom?
Like with just towel root or something similar?

Okay, I get it.. you don't want to pay off the bet.

Sure, whatever. Glad it's working for you though. And it works for the rest of us too.

Good enough.

Seriously? That doesn't make any sense.

I installed it on two systems and it was super easy and has been super stable. And there are 100+ comments on the original article without anyone there having issues either. Write out a detailed description of all the steps you took to install it so we can see where you went wrong.

Yeah well I guess pretty close to stock

I have Beans NF6 Factory build (upgrade without wiping data)
I have Chainfire's autoroot

Flashed TWRP recovery
Flashed the file via this ( http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23269279319196848 ) file.
Wiped Dalvik/Cache via TWRP
Rebooted
Wiped data in App Manager
Started.
[insert picture of dog poop]


but in all seriousness I don't get it either... it's weird.

Although I'm glad I'm not the only one.

Okay, two of you ran into problems trying to install it. Still just a minor glitch.

To troubleshoot this though, we need you to be a lot more detailed. You didn't mention a lot of things.. e.g. you didn't say anything about checking permissions in your description.. so did you? And what was the result? Did you check the md5? Did you wipe the cache from the Application manager.. you only mention wiping the data. I know, picky, picky. But troubleshooting is all about the details. And we need to those things if we are to pin down the cause.

I'm also wondering about the order you wiped the data /cache. It's normally done in the reverse and that may be causing you problems. Wiping Dalvik should be the last step.

This procedure works. I've tried it three times now:
Check md5 of download
Move dialer to /system/priv-app
Confirm that permissions are 0644
[you can try running it at this point if you want to. it will force close at this point]
Open the Application manager i.e. Settings > Applications > Application Manager > All > Google Dialer
Force Stop > Clear cache > Clear data > OK
Reboot to recovery mode > wipe cache + Dalvik
Reboot to system
Open app drawer, click on Google Dialer & observe that it works properly

Thanks for that but that log isn't deep enough to answer most of our questions. But if you could tackle the ones I posed in my last post? And can you try the install procedure that I suggested? It should work or at least give us some insight into what is failing.

Meanwhile, the dialer works here.

Does it work if you click the call button?

Sorry, I did follow your procedure to the letter, and the last post I posted was the result.

I'm thinking it's just not going to happen. Maybe a full system wipe is needed... or something. Who knows. Thanks for trying though.
