VIDEO button hack for Dialpad skin - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General

Hello
has anyone managed to get the 'hacks' for the 'video' button so it can be skinned like the rest of the dialpad buttons?
cheers

l6cum: poor man. If no one comes up with an answer over the next week, pm me and I'll look into it again. I'm so busy right now, no time, but if there's no subtle mechanism, I'll just grab it by its balls and subclass it if possible.

New style of DialPad.

Please find the enclosed cab file, if you interesting on the dialpad style.
I'm not use to have 4 big button(call,history,speed dial etc) on the right, may I hand is small find difficult to press especial the backspace key. Again I'm having same problem with original ETEN dial pad as all 4 button is on the top, feeling so far away , therefore I hack it to change the button position and simply design the black style skin for my dial pad.
It may not as nice as a "pauly A", "zphone" skin but hope you guy can enjoy this new style dialpad. :wink:
Current version is not support SmartDial, I will try it out see wheither I can hack it or not.
I'm not test with others PDA phone except XDA II so use it with your own risk.
pauly A,
I'm sorry to tell you that I have used your landscape skin(grey) part of my cab, if you not allow please let me know I will remove it. Thanks.
Pretty nice, I'd be interested to try it out.

Hi man grear work but upload it fast :lol:
it is very cool idea , iconized controls very nice, keep up with it
Coool.
One comment though. Is the rounded picture frame part of the design or that just simulate a place where the picture will be? The one of the ethen phone pad design has such a design too, but later someone find it difficult to match the design with the photos that you put into the rounded frame. As such the author/designer scrap the rounded frame design. You might want to consider the fact that the photos that you put in might not able to be rounded age, and/or the photo need not have the same background colour as the 'inner frame' such that you can utilize the rounded frame.
It is wonderful. Please work and release it as soon as you can
Wow , really good ...
is it a new addon , or just an hacking of tapres.dll or cprog.exe ?
hanmin,
The rounded frame is actually just simulate a place where the picture will be. I understand this problem but for me I'm Ok with it. I may create another which without frame next time.
TofClock,
I'm hacking base on Eten dial pad Etphone.dll.
All,
I'm just finish the portrait skin, I may not include landscape now maybe will do it in future, so I will package the "Pauly-A_Skin_Grey" landscape skin into cab for now. Will release it tmr after back from my work.
Is this skin full working with smart dialing ??
because smartdialing won't work with smartdialer ....
hi nice work!
will this be compatible with other phones? ie the wizard?
S
Yeah, it looks very great!
Please post the CAB-File so that we can try it out! I will test it on a HTC Alpine!
hum .... protected cabfile ....
i've to hack it ... sorry
Files
Here is all the files in my cab.
i've already all the files and the registry settings ...
this is a really nice work
thanks for your work and files
What about samrt dialing compatibility ?
ok , i've tested tour skin , it's really beautifull
but , in the progress screen , the photo has not same size as the designed place ...
no speaker on button ?
do you think is it possible to make , in the progresse screen , a button to launch another application ?

dialing side of the HTC cube

hello all,
What is the path to the executable file for the dialing side of the HTC cube (on the Sprint Vogue for example)? I am hoping to set an icon with that path, so when its clicked it brings up the 9 icon dialing side of the cube...
thanks
cprog.exe or phone..im not sure though
hmmmm cprog.exe just brings up the regular dialer....
i am hoping to bring up the side of the cube with the 9 icons which can be set with photos.
thanks
Maybe to take it a step further, do you think it would be possible to just have the dialer part of the cube? I love the dialer on slithers cube but that is the only part of the cube that i use. Been looking around for awhile but i have not found any answers.
You are looking for a makecall.exe.
Its discussed here

thanks, that has me on the right track...
On Torx's Iphone Theme, I am trying to setup a new page with frequently called numbers...any help is greatly appreciated.

[9-25-2008] 3D Button Dialer skin with cab (New Versions)

I got tired of the three step process to install the dialer, SmartDial and graphics everytime I flashed or did a hard reset. So, I made my own .cab installer file.
I combined DxC's excellent minimal dialer (3b), the new SmartDial version of EtPhone.dll with my own graphics and replaced the contents of DxC's .cab file. I edited the EtPhone.dll file to hide the little black rectangle that is left over from the elapst time display. I also edited the layout for the button sizes to better fit the graphics on the "Call Status" page.
I don't really use the landscape version, so I didn't make any changes there. I'm not really sure who the credit for those graphics should go too.
The results are a one step install Dialer with SmartDial, redial and (I think) pretty good graphics.
I hope you enjoy it.
8-3-2008 - I created a white set of files. The graphics line up pretty well but with an all white background the text at the top of the screen doesn't display. It may work off of the system fonts associated with your theme. If so, your in business... Let me know if the skin works with your white theme and I'll finish the process by creating a cab file.
Still no Landscape. and I can't edit the EtPhone.dll sufficently to get rid of the rectangle, or add extra smart dial lines.
8-6-2008 - I think I did it. I got rid of the rectangle. Actually I moved it to the upper left corner on the same line as the dialed phone numbers. I got to looking at the original EtPhone.dll file (Pauly-A E Ten) I realized that DcX actually moved the buttons around to get the wonderful layout we now have. Someone else moved around the layout to make the Smartdial visible (I don't know who) So I figured, instead of hiding it why not just move it...
... so now it is nearly perfect. (the black one, to me) I still can't seem to figure out how to reverse the text color for the white version. I will keep hacking at it. I won't be making any other layout versions, I'm pretty happy with the layout as it is. I may create some new graphics for this layout. Sorry, I can't please everyone. So I please myself and bring along as many as I can with me.
The .cab file below is the newest version with the rectangle fix.
9-11-2008 - I got to tinkering around again. I moved and resized some buttons on the dialer screen. I enlarged the SmartDialer and enabled the BT headset icon. I also cleaned up the graphics. I only changed the main dialer screen. There are black and white versions. I have only tested on the Wizard. Enjoy...
9-25-2008 - Couple of little edits to show the status icons for headset and location. Okay so I also removed the white line down the left side of the Call Status screen on the black version.
THE IMPORTANT ?
Does it have redial functionality

Why yes, yes it does...
That is the SmartDial version. Sorry, I should have stated that.
Requests...
Perchance, make the keypad buttons just a bit smaller so that more of the SmartDial list shows (rather than just the one line)...
...and skin the landscape display?
Nice job overall, like the SmartDial addon.

Very nice dialer but u didnt solve the rectangle problem hiding the middle of the smartdial. I installed, soft-reset, press green call button to display this nice dialer, then slide out keyboard to see default landscape dialer with no smartdial, then closed hardware keyboard putting the screen back to portrait and low and behold, black rectangle box in the middle of smart dial. Awesome dialer if u can really fix the box problem as well as work on the landscape skin. Good Luck!
Love the dailpad...can we change the background to all black?
thanks
nice job...thanks
can we have a white version (easy to see in sun light)
landscape would make it complete
thanks
Mr. Incredible,
This is a perfect & sharp graphical one, thanks for the effort.
Can I have the same with white background please.
Thanks again.
another observation... I'm not sure if this is supposed to happen, been so long since I've used a smartdialer, but the 1 acts as a wildcard for contact names... again, can't remember if that is an original function of it, or what.
perfect,
i also prefer totally black for better reading...
i don't know if this is possible, but to see 2-3 smartdial lines it would be nice.
but i don't know if this is easy to change ?

agree! A white version similar to diamond graphics would be highly appreciated
Any way to use this with HTCTouch's WM7 dial skin? I so miss having that smartdial feature! Now everytime I have to call the last person, i have to either dial number or go to PocketCM. That is no fun!

Sorry I, realized that after I posted. I'm not a programmer. I was just hacking around with the EtPhone.dll file. My resources for editting are pretty limited. I do hate the little rectangle, so I will keep trying. (yes, hate is a strong word)

Sorry, I'm not the author of the EtPhone.dll. I just made my graphics fit what is there. Anyway, I like it with the larger buttons. They fit my fat fingers better.
I really like your job a lot but i cannot manage to do vidEo calls ... may you tell me what I have to do or add a dedicated button? Thanks and bye!

I don't really like sunlight. I try to avoid it at all cost. I may be able to replace the EtPhone.dll in DxC's minimal dialer for you. It's white. (mostly)
Also, the all black background isn't possible. I started with a all black background and the 3D effect I applied added a little bit of "off-black" to achieve the effect. I too would like a more black version but the trade off is not as realistic.
Nice job on the dialer. Big buttons and black are perfect for me.

Thanks & Cheer

best dialer ever i used ...
great job

for smart dialing ...

Really simple.
1. Uninstall any other dialers you may have installed. (Not including the original)
2. Copy the cab file to your phone and double click. Soft reset the phone.

*DISCONTINUED* [THE][UPGRADE] cmEX Landscape - Shadowsong

Discontinued, please go to this thread for the new version.
Looking good Angelusz, and I swear the landscape fix actually switches faster now that I'm using your skin for it!
The only things I'd change (if I knew how):
1. Combine the new E-mail/new SMS into one button that just takes me to the messaging section rather than starting a new one already.
2. get rid of the little blue square that you see when you press a button (if thats even possible)
3. add a calculator button (i use the calc alot)
Either way, this is great work and thank you for making it.
I could actually combine Sms and email, as indeed it can both be controlled from outlook. I think I will add the calc, as it's a useful tool to have in the landscape mode.
Funny thing is, I noticed the smoother transition too. Perhaps tweaking that ini helped a bit.
I can't get rid of the blue square just yet. It's a problem in how the rltoday is hardcoded. Still looking into that and will update as soon as possible.
Awesome, I cant wait to see the update!
EDIT: Another quick question, is there a way to make this landscape fix work when I press a softkey mapped to <Rotate Screen> in addition to opening the keyboard? If so then a buttone that takes me directly to albums would be useful as well.
Edit 2: oops didnt see the update at the top.

[IDEA] Manila - slider hide in portrait mode (like in landscape)

Hi,
I've just came up with an idea, which would be IMHO great for the VGA devices using the new Manila2. What do you think about hiding the slider in portrait mode just like in the landscape? I'm talking about the button, which after pressing on it, displayes the slider for a few seconds. Thanks to this modification there would be more space on the screen.
I guess it is hard to do, but maybe someone would cope with it... if only you like the idea
I love this idea although i don't have the lua editting skills to do it!
I'm using Fredz advance music player, which is cool and love the minimizing tab

I never even thought of that. I think it's a sweet idea. Hope to see someone has the lua skills to do it.

i don't think it's difficult to hide the slider in entire manila portrait mode, but the whole point of porting to VGA is to make it fit in the screenspace that is available
the only thing you're going to miss is that one last week in calendar (and even that one can be visible by reducing the height) and maybe see more appointments in the home screen (then again, hiding the slider, you also can't see your new messages and new e-mail)
I love this idea.. and it have to work somehow.. well this is what i stumbbeled over today: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=508369
check the pictures.. the music tab kinda hides the menu like landscape.. there has to be a way to do that to all the tabs i guess...
great idea
Maybe someone is going to make it true...
