Can't disable stock Dialer - HELP

Hi -
new to Samsung, I discovered that (Unlike my trusty old HTC one mini 2) the car mode was missing. So I installed a new one – HTC’s one to be precise. (I am also using Nova Prime).

I then had the problem that in car mode (landscape) the S7 dialer comes up in portrait, with no way to change it. So I installed Rocketdialer, which can rotate, and selected it as my ‘Default dialer’.

This was fine, and I got the rocket dialler into the HTC drive mode app. But when I press the dialer to send a call, what should pop up but SAMSUNG’S BLOOMING SToCK DIALER. ! It wont go away.!

So I downloaded package disabler – selected the android.com contacts (which I’m led to believe is the S7 Dialer) and disabled it.

But when I use rocket dialer, hit call, the S7 Stock dialer still pops up?! In portrait!

It’s very frustrating. The S7 seems full of little annoying things.

Please help? What do I do?

Thanks

Welcome to the forums. The com.android contacts line is not the dialer. Samsung's should be labeled phone. Try disabling that one instead.
