Dial Today plugin - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General

Hi all, I'm finding a plugin to make direct calls from today screen like Palm Treo 700w look here http://www.palm.com/us/products/smartphones/treo700w/today.epl
bye
alberto

did you find it? sounds great!

it would be nice if somebody who ows theo 700w get the necessery files for rest of us :twisted:

Treo700w users come on!

I guess not many Treo700 users will be reading this forum.
However, if you find this Today plug-in, let us know: I'd love to try it.

yes! it sounds like a great idea.. even for people developing soft for pocket PC devices..
I've been googleling for this kind of plugin as a part of a software to buy/download, but nothing similar..

Though if you start using the 0 - 9 buttons you can dial the number that way from the Today screen, if that's any help.
Though also, with that AND the Contacts software/hardware key, I don't honestly see what the point of such an app is?!?

Maybe for those few who uses the phone in portait mode..
But again, that would require them to open a SIP.
Would be easier to just press green button and dial..
I dunno..

And also, contactbreeze, from SBSH, properly configured, is very simmilar and more simply for searchs.
Have Fun

but noone have buyed Treo700w? possible?

That'd be ace if there were a version for the Exec.

SPB Diary has a contacts plugin that does almost that. You'll get a contact list wich you can dial from.

You want to have the bluetooth shortcut on the today screen?
If you'r running O2 plus, under the "applications" tabs it can be done.
Click on O2 plus icon in today screen
Click on applications tab
Click on add button
Find bluetooth under the settings list
Done
If you'r not running O2 plus, sorry can't help ya

I think he wants to remove it entirely? I dunno, trying to figure out the posts in this place is pretty hard sometimes.
It would be pretty cool to remove that icon though, since phonealarm duplicates all the functionality I need from it.

That is easy. Do a backup (or registry backup only), whip up that friendly regeditor and locate the string "BTIcon" using a search function or walk there manually, it is in HKLM\Services\BTIcon. Remove the entire BTIcon branch and there you are.
This is coming from memory, hence the strong suggestion to do a BACKUP!

Bigger Keys for Dialer

Hello does anyone know how to make the keys on the dialer bigge or get a diffrent dialer with bigger keys ?
search the forum for some skins
Hi can I see a screen shot please ?

The skin is great, but smart dialing doesn't work..
Any thoughts?
Thanks
Henry
Yeah thanks for the skin the keys are huge which is great, but smartdiling doesnt work which is a trade off....... I guess you cant have everything
The reason SmartDialer doesn't work is because this is not just a skin. It is a replacement dialer program. You can't just use larger images for buttons and get bigger buttons, you need a program which looks at larger portions of the touch screen as buttons.
SmartDialer also replaces the dialing program (a dll in your windows directory). SInce you can't have two dialing programs working at once you have to choose between the bigger buttons or SmartDialer.
Personally I use MS Voice Command so much that I never had a need for SmartDialer (or larger buttons for that matter) but I do much prefer the look of this dialer.
I would like something like this.
I wish I knew how to whip up CE apps...
That is an awesome idea, W00T. :shock:
I can't do it, plus I think there needs to be a backspace and um a little more room @ the top for call info but great idea.

You could use SPB Diary. It displays a contact list on your today screen. You can hold down on a name and choose dial work/mobile/home.

...allows pics OR names however the names dont look to attractive! so try spb diary or sbsh offeres a product that runs faster then spb
sbsh @ http://www.sbsh.net/products/contactbreeze/
If you're after a less user friendly, but more customisable approach, my VJPhoneTools will do calls and sms from today screen, when used with a today launcher like claunch.

Thanks guys, you guys are a huge help!

Getting the Rotate icon back

I wonder if there is anyway to get the rotate screen icon back in to the tray on the Hermes?
You can use Spb Pocket Plus.
With this program installed you can hold where OK button is and get the option Rotate left and Rotate right.
Thanks for that tip, but I don't like SPB Plus.
What I was really after was a reghack.
Anyone?
Coercri,
You're not the only one who wants this icon back.
I had a wizard but after a upgrade the icon rotation of the WLAN was gone.
So if there is anyone who knows how to get this back we would very grateful.
Cheers,
Drifter
phmkeys and traylauncher are your friends, vijay555 also has a software that can do that. The only reason I use phm software is cause I was using them since before, but vijay is a pretty active member on the forums so using his software has many advantages. And best of all they hardly use any resources, do a search around for either set.
No one with an answer for a registry tweak?
Cheers,
Drifter
I tried copying across ScreenRotate_Service.dll and ScreenRotate_Service.dll.0409.mui from the Windows folder of my WM5 Himalaya, and imported the registry settings for the service, but I can't get it to work. This is the service which creates the rotate icon in the tray, and isn't present on my Hermes, so I think I'm heading in the right direction. Maybe someone can find the solution?
I think it has to do with the service not loading at startup, but I'm not sure how to fix this with my limited knowledge...
I readed ther's an application at address
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=45953
but I'm not able to open this page!
Someone can post here the application please?

I used to like the Jim98y dialer also except that it scrunches the numbers when inputing and my users (and myself) noticed that it wouldn't show DTMF (such as dialing an extension).
I switched back to the PaulyA skins at http://www.paulya.com/dialerskins.htm
I personally like the Grey in the Black Glass with out smartdialer series. (I dispise the WM6 smartdialer so I use the Grey with the old smartskey.ini so I can get to my Contacts, history and Speed Dial with the D-Pad, but that's me)
thanks guys! Ya I found paulya website yesterday. they are very very nice phone pad skins. I'm using the vista black one. I'd still like to find a black version of the WM5 default one. call me stupid lol. i just want to see how it looks in my skin. i think the vista one looks too good to go with my skin.
I think you will like this.
