Hi guys i was just debloating my Honor 10
I uninstalled the Huawei calendar and contact app and after rebooting the dialer app in the bottom left corner has changed to the green android icon and when clicking on it the dialog says app not installed.

Is the Huawei dialer app integrated in their contact app?

The google contacts app is still on my phone and working.
If i call a contact from the google contacts app the call is still working.
I can also still receive calls and the screen showing up looks like the Huawei dialer app when calling.

I tried to install the google stock android dialer app, but this installation failed.

Unfortunately i don't have a backup of Huawei's contacts app.
Can someone provide the Huawei contact apk to me? I didn't found it on google.
I would like to see if reinstalling this app will fix my issue.

Thanks!

i moved the apk to /system/app but after rebooting it disappeared.
Is this really the right path? I assume it has to be something like /system/app/contactAppFolder

Yeah sorry my bad.
System /priv app/ make a folder Contacts / move apk here with name as Contacts
Don't forget to Change permissions
Click to expand...
Click to collapse

I could place the apk there and after a reboot the app icons of huwei phone and contact returned.
When i click them the app shows up for under a second an then close immediately.
The phone and contact apps are not showing up in that app drawer where i can see the latest apps.

Permissions have been set according the other folders and apps in system/piv-app/
I also tried full permissions but it still doesn't work.

I noticed that in the other folder there a sub folder oat/arm64 an in this folder there are odex and vdex files.
I think i also have to create those.
Do you know how to?

Put the lib folder(extract the zip) inside the contact folder . Should work!

Put the permission correctly.

As for oat folder, it is basically cache so no need to worry.
If you want to, just make a oat folder with similar structure in the contact folder but I don't think it matter.
Sorry I forgot to sent lib folder earlier

Unfortunately that didn't help, same behaviour as before.
What are the required permissions i put /system/priv-app/Conctacts and all sub files and folders on rwxr-xr-x.
