GKSPhone (ESX)

GKSPhone - The Best-Selling Phone Script for ESX Servers

GKSPhone has earned its reputation as one of the most polished and feature-complete phone systems available for FiveM. This ESX edition delivers the quality and functionality that made GKSPhone the #1 choice for thousands of servers worldwide, optimized specifically for ESX 1.1 and 1.2 (Legacy) frameworks.

With 185 servers using this phone system, GKSPhone represents the gold standard for in-game communication and utility. It combines beautiful interface design with practical features that enhance roleplay rather than just existing as eye candy. When players pull out their phones, they get a responsive, feature-rich device that actually adds value to their experience.

What's Included

You're getting a complete smartphone system designed from the ground up for FiveM roleplay. The phone includes essential communication apps (calls, messages, contacts), practical utilities (camera, notes, settings), and advanced features that integrate with your server's economy and job systems. Every app serves a purpose, and the interface is optimized for quick access without fumbling through confusing menus.

The system handles voice calls through your server's voice system, manages text messaging with delivery confirmations, and provides GPS navigation integrated with your map. It's the kind of comprehensive solution that lets you retire multiple single-purpose scripts in favor of one unified phone experience.

Communication Excellence

Voice Calls: The calling system integrates with your server's voice framework (TokoVoip, Mumble, Pma-voice) to deliver realistic phone conversations. Voice quality adjusts based on signal strength and proximity. Call quality degrades in remote areas or underground, adding realism to communications. Players can conference call, put people on hold, or reject incoming calls.

Text Messaging: The SMS system supports individual and group conversations with full message history. Send photos, share locations, and organize conversations by contact. Messages persist across sessions, so players can review past communications. The typing indicator shows when someone is composing a response, making conversations feel natural.

Contact Organization: Save important numbers with custom names and profile pictures. Create contact groups for organizations (your gang, your business, your friends). Block numbers from people you don't want contacting you. The contact system makes phone management intuitive even when you have dozens of saved numbers.

Integrated Applications

Banking: Check your account balance, transfer funds to other players, and review transaction history without visiting ATMs. The banking app connects to your ESX money accounts, showing cash, bank, and black money separately. Send payments with optional messages, making business transactions traceable and professional.

Marketplace: List items for sale with photos, descriptions, and asking prices. Browse classified ads from other players looking to buy or sell goods. The marketplace app creates organic player-to-player economy interactions, reducing reliance on generic NPC shops. Sellers get notifications when buyers message them about listings.

Social Media: The Twitter-style app lets players post thoughts, share photos, and engage with server-wide conversations. News agencies can break stories, businesses can advertise, individuals can build online personas. The social feed becomes a living record of server events and community interactions.

GPS & Navigation: Set waypoints that appear on your minimap and provide turn-by-turn directions. Save favorite locations (home, work, favorite spots). Share your current location with contacts. The GPS integration makes the phone genuinely useful for navigation instead of forcing players to alt-tab to external map tools.

Job-Specific Features

Emergency Services: Police and EMS get dedicated apps showing active 911 calls with GPS coordinates, caller information, and incident details. Officers can mark themselves available/busy, accept calls, and coordinate responses. The system creates realistic emergency dispatch scenarios.

Taxi & Transportation: Taxi apps let drivers see ride requests with pickup and dropoff locations. Passengers get estimated arrival times and driver ratings. The system facilitates professional transportation roleplay with proper job mechanics.

Business Management: Business owners get apps for employee management, accessing company accounts, and coordinating operations. The phone becomes a mobile office for on-the-go management.

Customization & Branding

The phone supports extensive visual customization to match your server's theme and branding. Change app icons, modify color schemes, adjust notification styles, and customize wallpaper collections. Server owners can add custom apps or modify existing ones through clearly documented configuration files.

You can also configure which apps appear by default, which require players to install them, and which are job-locked. This flexibility lets you tailor the phone experience to your server's specific needs and roleplay style.

What Makes It Stand Out

GKSPhone became a best-seller for good reasons: it works reliably, performs well, and provides genuinely useful features instead of gimmicks. The interface is polished and responsive, making phone interactions feel natural rather than clunky. When players need to communicate or access utilities, the phone is their first choice because it's actually convenient.

The integration depth sets GKSPhone apart from basic alternatives. Banking connects to your ESX accounts. GPS works with your map. Jobs get custom apps. Everything ties together into a cohesive system rather than feeling like disconnected features bolted onto a phone frame.

Performance optimization means the phone doesn't lag or stutter even on heavily populated servers. Opening the phone is instant, apps load quickly, and animations are smooth. This attention to performance makes the phone feel like a native game feature rather than a resource-heavy mod.

Why Servers Choose GKSPhone

With 185 active installations and thousands more across all GKSPhone versions, this phone system has proven itself as the industry standard. Servers choose it because players actually use it - the features are practical enough that the phone becomes part of daily gameplay rather than a novelty that gets ignored.

The ESX-specific optimizations ensure tight integration with your framework's economy, jobs, and player data. You're not running a generic phone with hacky ESX compatibility - this is built for ESX from the ground up with proper framework integration.

Support from the GKSHOP team and an active community means you're not alone if issues arise. The documentation is comprehensive, common problems have established solutions, and the developer maintains the software with regular compatibility updates.

Upgrade Path Available

If you're running this ESX version and later want the newest features, GKSPhone V2 offers even more advanced capabilities with additional apps, improved UI, and enhanced performance. The ESX version provides a solid foundation, and you can upgrade to V2 when your server is ready for the latest technology.
