How ? No I mean the whole contacts experience (actually which is called Dialtacts in the code): the activity with the four tables, the whole thing. And you can't change what happens when the user presses "Contacts" on the home screen, that is just a shortcut to the built-in contacts app. You can however supply your own contacts, which they user can put on to the home screen instead of the built-in one. > 2.

Can I make it somehow that EVERY press on the CALL button > launches my app ? No, the top-level contacts screen by its nature places a call when you press the call button there, it doesn't launch itself again. You can intercept at a lower-level when the call is actually placed, there is a broadcast for this. > 3.
