Dialer issues

This is not that big of a problem but more of an annoyance. Whenever I click the dialer shortcut on the dock for the new gingerblur leak, it brings me to contacts and then I have to switch over to the dialer. I don't know why it keeps doing this because the shortcut is directly linked to dialer. Anyone know how to fix this? Thank you.

My dialer has stopped working. If I hit the dialer button it goes like it is going to open but it just reverts back to the main screen. I can still make calls through the contacts but it sure would be easier to use the dialer. Help please.

Same problem today for me. I read some where about cool down mode but I don't remember my phone ever going into cool down mode. I the only fix I have found is a factory reset but I really don't want to do that. Does anyone no of a way to just restore the dialer app?.

ATCnGA, do you use a car dock? Rooted? Launcher? I'm trying to find what we have in common to determine what is causing the issue. I use a car dock and car dashboard app, I rooted with z4root, and I am running Go Launcher. My phone has been working fine with all of these for a long time now. I'm not sure when the problem started because I don't use my dialer much. I tried launching it by tapping a phone number in a browser and is still didn't work. Tried force closing and clearing data, nothing works.
 
cooldown mode

It did enter cool down mode about a week ago. Someone in my family grabbed the towel it was under at the pool and it sat under the sun for about an hour. I saw it and it was quite hot and I turned it off and shoved it back under the towel. About an hour later I turned it on after it had returned to a normal temp and it seemed to work fine. It didn't start having the dialer issues for a few days after that.

It's not rooted. I could try a reset but would like to avoid that if possible.
 
Same problem with dialer for me...it did go I.to cool down mode after being left in car.

I use pro launcher also.

Please help, this sucks.

Ok still no fix for the dialer issue. Today I installed dialer one from the droid market. It seems to work fine. Not quite as good as the native software but definately a workable solution.

just did a factory reset, that fixed it
 
Anyone else ever had an issue with the dialer? As a a few days ago the dialer button (and the dialer app in the app list) fails. If you do it enough times you can see it actually opens for a moment and then closes. The odd thing is that I can still make calls from the phonebook, and the dialer pops up and functions perfectly when I am on a call (i.e. I can dial conference codes, etc.)

I'm open to any suggestions...
 
Have you tried deleting cache and/or data for the dialer app?

Check settings>applications>manage applications>all>dialer.....
