To better explain: How to "set default stock dialer programmatically" I have already done manually, but it's not easy to explain to customers!

This code will print the component names of all dialers:

B4X:

Dim pm As PackageManager
Dim in As Intent
in.Initialize(in.ACTION_CALL, "tel:")
Dim dialers As List = pm.QueryIntentActivities(in)
Log(dialers)

The first one is considered the best match, so there is no guarantee that it is the stock dialer.

By the way. This is a useful way to know if there are multiple dialers. Is There a way to set the default one instead of asking the customer?

Thank you
Mauro

Click to expand...

No. It´s the users device and HE may asked. And he need to set another one if he prefer. Or even not.
It is a Android decision.

Nothing dramatic as Apple "drastic" decisions... I have almost stopped developing on IOS 'cause amost nothing is feasable...
