How to make bigger caller id picture in WM5? - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General

With my Wizard, I really love the new picture integrated in Outlook, SMS and Caller ID with WM5.
It works real great however I think the Caller ID is quite small :shock:
Is there any way to make bigger Caller ID picture without using third party software such as Photo Contact?

I think the caller ID that came with WM5, works pretty good.
I really love it, only the picture is quite small though. 8)

Contacts (with Picture) on Today Screen

I noticed my friend's Treo 700w has a number of pictures as quick shortcuts to the contacts on his phone. Each one of these pics when clicked immediatedly calls the contact...
How is this achieved? Any idea, tools?
Same on my Linux phone. But not on Windows Mobile. MS prefers the "list view" instead of the "icon view".
You guys should read this board more. Sigh

And making your own implementation using VJPhoneTools:

i added the Treo 700w today contact hack. after installing it i realized that 90% of the time i use voice dial, it's just easier. hit the button on the side and say the name John Cell or John Home
Yeah, I use my phone as a PDA more than a phone. So, I don't fancy having an extra plugin that may be slowing down (the already slow Charmer) the phone. However, I've also notice that I've only like call 5-10% of the contacts in my phone, and it would be nice if there is an application that (say) open a new screen showing the name/photo of people that I call most often (or that of I configure). Any exisiting ones?
Hmm.. or I should consider using the speed dial feature

BIG KEYPAD dialpad for HTC Hermes

Just make one, still under testing.
Only portrait mode will change to big key as i don't know how to change the video call button, i find the button will appear at 3 location, 1 in dialar and 2 in progress mode.
It also support smartdialing. But the bad side is you need to backup the phcanrc.dll first as this dialpad will change the phcanrc.dll

Wahhh! That's even more scary to us westerners
Another good source for dialpad skins are at: http://paulya.com/
I find them more eye appealing then most.

Good point. I have the 8525 version, so no video call button.

Question for developer genuises

Hey,
I am wondering if it is possible to create Today screen plug in that displays how many calls have been missed and if less then a defined number (say 5) displays the callers names/number if known? Has something like already been done? If not, how hard would it be to implement this? Any clues to help me to start this project?
Thanks
Check if phoneAlarm with an appropriate skin suits your needs.
Absolutely, PhoneAlarm is my recommendation.
If you're asking if it's technically possible, of course!

[unfortunately the bit you want, last caller info, is obscurred because it was my Mistress or somesuch]
From a technical point of view, this is very easy to do on WM5 using the state and notification broker.
DKToday might also be helpful and is free.

Any idea which skin I should use to get the functionality I need? MOst of the skins just show indicator or number of missed calls. I want to see whose calls I have missed from the Today screen.
PhoneAlarm skins can be built to show this info as standard (most skins have this feature hidden until "maximsed". But there's nothing to stop you doing it by standard)

S2U2: Incoming Caller Pics: Post Your Images

Friends,
I simply love S2U2 (now using the incredible new version)
We all know we can have our known callers pic customisation by assinging respective pics to the contacts. But if there is a caller whose pic is not assinged we get this below image on the screen.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So lets post our various pictures with different incoming caller pics.
Ps: this can be done by keeping the name of the picture as Nopic.png (the format has to be in png format) and resolution should be 400 X 400 in gfx folder
Here is my contribution:
This is one of my FAV if you have everthing black theme on S2U2
The globe i have taken from Copton GoliaX Theme v1.5!!!
Credits of the globe goes to Copton for his fantastic Touchflo 3D (i think its one of the best Tochflo 3d themes. you can refer this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=512584 )
Guys come on lets contribute to this

New user Android question, regarding pictures for contacts

Hey all, new HTC Legend owner here and am absolutely loving the phone, but jsut had a quick question. I went into gmail and assigned some contacts (since I sync from gmail for contacts list) some pictures so our SMS chats would look pretty. And they do look pretty, but I can't figure out how to assign an avatar to MYSELF.
What I mean is, take a look at this chat message I'm having with a friend

She has a pretty rose for her picture but why do I look like a seuxal predator?? How do I change that!!
Thanks in advance all!!
Mine was like this for a while then it suddenly just started showing my avatar try resting your avatar in Google then force a re sync. Mine only started showing once I changed my fb image so give it a go
Sent from my HTC Legend using XDA App
I don't use stock messaging app (I don't even have it installed), but I can tell you that handcent has option to add your picture.
