Hi everyone,
I wanted to share something back with the community, so here's a new "skin" for JPLDialer_VistaII by JPL4.
I've created images to overwrite the default images in the JPLDialer_VistaII installation to get a working version of my mock-up below. I'm doing it this way since I don't know of another way to do it, but I'm all ears if there is a better way?
NOW COMPLETE: See below for link to files.
Best Regards,
d38

i like it.... very very nice and clean looking
Really like the JPLDialer_VistaII on PaulyA.com, but I wasn't thrilled about the grass image as it didn't fit right with the PocketCM contacts list I like so much, so, I designed a graphic "skin" to overwrite all of the graphics installed with JPLDialer_VistaII. Pauly A did all the work on the dialer, this is just cosmetic. All of the graphics are included.
1.) First install the "JPLDialer_VistaII by JPL4": http://www.paulya.com/dialerskins.htm
2.) Send the zip file below to your phone and unzip all of the images into your Windows directory (overwriting the files already there, I've named then the same). (Alternate to browse to the Windows directory on your phone when connected to your pc and overwrite the images that way instead).
3.) Do a soft reset. Ready to roll!
I hope you like it.

that is really nice, great work man, i use http://www.paulya.com/dialerskins.htm this website every now and then to get skins from plus they are all free.....
I hope Paulya doesn't mind but I put the bitmaps together into a new JPLDialer cab to make the install easier. The dialer and the bitmaps are excellent.
EDIT: Couldn't attach so I linked it.

nice i like that a lot more than the grass, thanks.
redial issue
if i open up the dial pad, and a number is at the top, if i hit the talk button or the hard button to dial from the phone, the phone will not dial the number. I am forced to hit call history then press dial from that menu. Any idea how to fix this issue. I am using a Mogul. Any help would be great
The redial and 911 functions do not work with this dialer. Can someone double check this? I am using a Sprint Mogul.
As in I can't dial 911??? Some one really should look into that.
P.S. Love the look of this dialer. But I suppose 911 should be an option!
Yeah, when you dial 911, the dialer freezes...which is kind of a really bad thing!!
Been a while since I've been able to check back here.
No 9-11 dialing? What? I just tried it on my 8525 (Windows Mobile 5) and it went right through. Not sure why it wouldn't work for you? I know this dialer doesn't use the smart dialer, but I didn't like that in the first place, I doubt that would be the issue for you?
R0N1N, VERY cool, thanks for doing that! I would like to know how that works... Any chance you could share a quick how to? Or a link for more info? Thanks regardless!
I'm going to make a new variation on this one, more of a black based theme, less blue this time. After using this for a while, I've noticed that I would rather see more variation in the button on / off states, especially outside on a sunny day. I'll post it here when it's complete!
Thanks for the feedback! As far as I'm concerned, all props go to PaulyA, but I do appreciate it!
love this skin TY!

I tried to modify HTC Home, because it is IMHO to big. I only need the Home Tab so i wondered if it might be possible that the tab selection is not being displayed to save some Space (in the pic is shown what i want to be displayed).
The greatest thing at all would be if only the Files needed for the Home Tab would be installed. But that is not necessary at all, because i would be able to figure that out by myselfe and create that cab file.

Maybe someone knows an other application, that is able to display that i desire. Or a SMS, Email, and Call Notification as plugin for Pocket Plus as Icons that can be plased free into the Tabs.
I'm looking forward for your help
Greets so far.
rltoday has a skin that will do what you want. Free program that works very well.
rltoday still have bugs, It can not work properly in my hima I have given feedback to the creator
It would be much nicer if the area you want to disappear could appear and disappear by selecting the tabs. That means when you click onces on the Home tab the clock display appears when you click it again it will disappear. And that way for all Tabs of HTC Home, that would be a great development for the HTC HOME.
Why not use HTC Home Custom 1.0 beta5? (HHC 1.0 beta5?)

Why? Cause what he wants to do is not possible with Home Customizer.
AFAIK it is not possible at all yet.
I would really like it if it was possible. Ideally with the custom if there's only 1 tab used the tab bar should disappear... It would be perfect
If rlToday doesn't bug for you, you really should give it a try.
I've been using it in place of HTC Home for weeks now, and never looked back.
It looks better, smaller, more customizable... simply awesome
Should check out the skins made by a person known as FOXCAT:
http://rotlaus-software.de/forum/viewtopic.php?pid=762#p762
Thnx for your help so far.
RLtody seems to be a nice tool with great capabilities. Unfortunatly the HTC Theme doesnt work for me. It gives me odd graphics, but i havnt had the time yet to change the skin.xml for my needs.
But I'm shure i'll get what i want from this app. Indeed i'll get more i've ever hoped when starting the thread (A today plugin, exacly like i want it and fully customizable).
@PAPPL
It isn't possible to do what i want with any customize tool for HTC Home, because all that they are capable of is changing the reg keys in HKLM\Software\HTC\HTC Home and replace the Images. For both i dont need any tool at all. But there isnt any reg key (at least i found none) that is responsible for the task i want. Nor did i find the place of the prog, where the graphics are defined. I think the only way to find that out is to get a hand onto the sourcecode. But i dont know anything at all of reverse compilation.
Maybe someone knows an other application, that is able to display that i desire. Or a SMS, Email, and Call Notification as plugin for Pocket Plus as Icons that can be plased free into the Tabs.

Not too sure what you are looking for here, but you might give HTCPlus! a try. I find it a bit smaller and does what I am looking for.

Not sure of the fix but it looks like an odd overlay issue. Possibly a conflict with 2 dialers? /shrug
try uninstalling the cab

Wow -- what an interesting design. Very unique.
Seriously -- did you try to intstall another dialer or something? What did you do on the device today (installs / mods)??
last message, I had the big button dialer for while like a week or so and I decided to get a skin,
I saw a fourm and i got the img files for the black skin, So i put the img's in the windows dir. but that wasint the place to put them, it over writed like 2 img files i think, so i went into the phone skin folder in the windows dir. and i put them there did a soft-reset and it turned out like that, "first time i put the img's to the windows .dir no change after soft-reset" so can some one conger up some detailed step by step instructions on how to fix this, I got to go this was my last message im walking out the door right now.. 9:30pm GMT -05:00 "eastern time" is when ill be on, later guys and thanks for the help..
wow, man. if you erased images previously in windows folder, you might be SOL, just a bit, without knowing which ones. What I would do would be to try and use another dialer skin and install over the whole thing. try big button dialer again. try to install it and see if that works for you. i have included it in this post so you dont have to bother searching. i know that big button dialer uses all its own images so it might just overlay again and look right.

Is that the installed dialer that comes with the official carrier released ROMs?
Alright i'm back, thank's for the steps, I just uninstalled the dialer and it just finished booting up, and wow, I turn my phone on and it statred dialing by its self???
Well im installing the new idaler and going to add the skin after it boots up, hopefully it doesint dail whole bunch of numbers and letters again lol..
Well I uninstalled the dialer, re-installed it, put the img's back into the phone skin folder and soft-rest my phone,
\edit
Well i'm just going to uninstall it and stick to the original big button dialer, guess I canno't put a new skin, if any one want's to go in depth with me on trying to fix this problem I would be more then happy to let them help me, thank's to who helped..
Is there anyone that can make a Dialpad that takes up more of the screen, Im looking for something along the lines of the example of the picture on the right.

The att one on the left is the current one I have which is the closest thing but very hard to use while driving and running around, which I got from PhilD41
I just changed the all the buttons to invert when they are pressed down where his only inverted the number and you couldn't see it under your finger while pressing it. If someone can just create one I can skin it myself, I just need a base to put them on. Thanks.
If anyone wants mine Ive attached it, to install just extract to windows directory.ONLY IF YOU HAVE HTC DAILER
you can try DXC's iphone dialpad, any style that's doesn't have a .5 at the end.

i just made this skin for dxc's dialpad, as you can see its fullscreen
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=394518
Some time ago I made a small flash app that was fullscreen:
(It has severall skins)
Its not great, but it works...
You can get it here:
http://twolf.sytes.net
Under the area MOBILE/FLASHKALL
How do i use this flash dialpad? i have wm2003 and macromedia flash 7 installed but when i dial a number nothing happens...
Sorry, works fine here...
You just need flash 7, dial a number and press the green button...
oh, the EXE exports the data to the storage card, so I guess you need one too...
But i can make a version that exports to a automatic temp folder managed by you system.
hm... i have a storage card and in the temp folder are the files.
I use a german rom wm2003 rom for my magician. There is probably a difference between the folder names: the storage card is called Speicherkarte for example.
Too bad that it isnt working for me
A while ago I made a dialer that is full screen. It has no functionality other than dialing, and only works when installed to main memory...

i know but there was a pocketcm wm7 skin that was posted and it was posted in cab form...
but anyway - i just have to drop the folder in the subdirectory right ??
Great job on this skin!!!! Only one request. Can you make the SMS threaded? I tried to use it but I only see my side of the conversations, not what the replies were....
Again, I applaud this skin!!!!!
The conversations work fine in mine.
I have been searching all over, first I love this skin, but I was wondering what settings would need to be changed for the alphabet index response area to be bigger and be able to use the selection and scrolling from the left side of the screen? I don't need the actual bar moved just the ability of use on the left hand side. I'm left handed and in order to scroll I have to dig into the right side of the screen so much my hand covers the letter label. any help would be appreciated.
May be you help me, I make dimond skin for PocketCM, but it not work.

Nice Job Anja.
Great skin, thank you. I have been playing with his and i have one comment on this skin. Sometimes some of my contact disappear. When i restart PCMContacts they are back. And that goes on and on. Not the same contacts but it differs. Any thought on this?
????
VGA Support plz
Hi. well done.
But what can i do if it isnt works?
Where should i copy the files, and settings.ini?
where do i extract the files to?
Like already said in this thread, DO NOT extract the files, just copy the .rar or .zip into pocketCM dir and enable it on the skin options
For EvgeniyKo
The solution for your problem was found! Check your forum...
I'm repeating my post from ppcgeeks, but I thought some people might appreciate them.
Well, I spent some time and made up a few different colours in 2 styles.
These are optimized indexed colour images so they take up as little ram as possible.
Once you install a cab do a soft reset. Feedback appreciated!

*note* These cabs make the following change on your phone. They overwrite the following files in the windows directory: Assets_dialer_Normal.bmp and Assets_dialer_Pressed.bmp , that is all.
Since there is no uninstaller, if you plan on going back to your old skin you should make a copy of those files. For anyone that wants to go back and doesn't have those files, the white and black original skins are available.
Using Total Commander copy the original files to the windows directory. Allow it to overwrite the existing files and then do a soft reset.

Hi,
Very nice, your last ones (White & yellow) are great !
Thanx,
Thanks a lot.
I will keep it on my phone.
WOW Wonderful job...so neat and clean
Best past is that they don't eat up memory. Its simply changes just 2 bmp files. Really good job
Wish if you can also change buttons when the number is dialed. I mean buttons of Call history, Mute, Notes, Speaker, and End button.
Screenshot of the buttons as below

Simple and useful - it allows the phone skin adjust to the color of the bars. I like to change the colors, currently I use the glossy blue...
