Just upgraded to Lollipop last night. Today I discover that the “Phone” app doesn’t work now.

I’m on a Galaxy Note 3 running the paid version of LL (love this launcher), and now I don’t have an easy way of making calls. When I hit the phone icon it says that the app isn’t installed (it’s the stock Samsung dialer) and prompts me to select a new app or go to the Play Store.

When I switch to Touchwiz the exact same dialer (again, the stock dialer from Samsung) it launches fine.

When I long press on the icon and view App Info, it shows “Contact” (the stock Samsung contacts app) as the app that’s being used, but that’s not what I’ve had it set to for the past 2 years, so I don’t know why that’s changed. Yet even so, it doesn’t launch the “Contacts” app…it just gives me the same message to select a new app to link to or download from the Play Store.  

Any suggestions on how to proceed?
