Are there any Phone/Dialer apps that allow full customization and personalization of the calling experience?

I'm looking for a Phone/Dialer app that lets you completely customize and personalize your calling experience. Specifically, I'm interested in features like customizing call backgrounds, call screen buttons, and layouts, as well as setting different ringtones (audio or video) for individual contacts or groups. Productivity tools would be a bonus. Does anyone know of an app that offers this level of customization and personalization?

(Android 14) Another person requesting to enter Android/data (but worse)

Hello....... I have a problem, a colleague of mine cannot access Android data, the solution is to use the Aosp files ("com.google.android.documentsui") but when he goes to the destination folder it appears empty:

"android/data/app.example.package/file/ ????"

(And it happens with all package data file...) (I also told he to downgrade the app to a previous version and... not work)

One thing to highlight would be: he don't have internet to use wireless debugging + Shizuku he using mobile data, additionally, it is important to mention: doesn't have the bootloader open, much less a custom recovery.

Basically the problem is not in accessing Android/Data, the problem is that after accessing there all the packages are completely empty

Now........ This whole problem can be summarized in miui moment, he has HyperOS Android 14, on his device, I also ask if there is any solution other than using wireless debugging

In my case it is not a problem because I have AOSP system and root, and my aosp files do not have that problem ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

Big black cursor when opening phone then disappears.

Noticed this since android 14 stable but managed to screenshot it as it's very hard to catch it because of how quick it disappears.

I've read that it has something to do with accessibility but I can't figure it out and it's driving me nuts🥹

Any ideas?

Old navigation gestures?

It's has become exponentially harder for me to use any app becuase I often scroll from the side in on a downwards angle. Now, whenever I scroll I back out of whatever app I'm in. It's incredibly frustrating and I can't find an option to go back to when all the swipe gestures were on the bottom of the screen.

I play alot of chess, where I slide peices. If a peice is on the edge and I swipe to move it towards the Center, it just leaves the application. Incredibly frustrating. Is there anyway for me to go back?

Question about when the beta program applies

i joined the beta for the android version of minecraft so i could have access to the experimental features, and on the minecraft help page which explains their preview program, it says that the app will automatically update after enrolling in the beta program. After enrolling, I'm finding that this isn't the case, and that, according to the play store, I won't receive a beta version of minecraft until the next incremental update.

I even tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app to see if the play store would give me a beta version then, but I had no luck. Anyway, if anyone on here has any experience with the google play store beta programs and could offer some insight, it would be really appreciated.

Android file doesn't show data and obb and I'm sick the security update how do I fix it?

I opened my zarchiver to add mods on my game and when I opened the data file it's empty I thought it was just a bug and when I opened the "files" app and opened the data, all the files where there and when I tried adding the mods using the "files" I opened the Android file and data and obb wasn't there, I tried several file manager and non of them worked, nor tutorials on YouTube I even wiped all my data to see if it would work and I still has the same problem. Please tell me how the hell do I fix it

Why isn't "Circle to Search" included in the latest or past beta's?

Just wondering why the "circle to search" feature which releases on the 31st to Pixel devices wasn't included in a beta. I have a P8P and I'm on the latest QPR beta but no "circle to search".

I wanna hear from the people who says they like the new color scheme on themed icons. Are you guys blind? How can you like this horrible thing. It doesn't even match the widget colors.

Call menus not working since preview update

Since updating to the 14 preview, I can no longer use phone menus (the ones where you call a company, and then have to press number keys to get directed to a specific department). Having direct my call turned on or off doesn't seem to help.

No matter what number I press, I always seem to get the same menu option selected. Trying to dial an extension is taking me to a random person instead. I've tried it with my google voice number, carrier number with/without direct my call, and with/without hold for me. Trying someone else's phone works, but mine is seemingly sending the wrong numbers to the phone systems.

Battery stats still need fixed

I posted a few days ago about the new battery page that has a few unwelcome behaviors.

I'm really glad they've returned to last full charge - the useful way to monitor battery usage stats - but it does a few things that I think still need improved upon (or that are just plain stupid). I've found or filed these two issues that I think will improve the battery page.

Missing features - am I being dumb?

A couple of questions, and apologies if the answers appear elsewhere in this sub (Reddit search ain't the best!)

I had my Pixel 6 Pro enrolled in the beta and there was an option in the drop-down shortcuts to identify a song playing. I'm now using a Pixel 7 Pro with the beta and I do not see this option. Has it been removed? I used this so much and was quicker than asking the Google assistant.

Also, I use two SIMs in my phone (both the P6P and the P7P), during calls on the P6P, on-going calls would appear in a pill-like icon next to the clock. With my P7P, I get the floating bubble when in a call. How do I get the pill-like display back?

Thanks
