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..

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!
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.

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...

Found this lurking in my backup folder. I made it a long time ago for my phone and thought I might as well do my part and share it.
I have a psd laid out so its simple enough to change any of the colors if anyone is interested.

Ask and you shall receive.
I have not tested the animated ones because I no longer have an animated.gif show up when I boot. So let me know how they work out. I have non looping versions too if they loop to much when you boot.

the animated one was actually locking up my phone cause im running a custom rom..so at one point it would just hang and needed a soft reset.
so what i did was, disabled the start up animation and used the still picture and it worked just fine! It actually cancelled out my wm6.1 welcome head which was an eye sore.
thanks once again!
I tried out an animated one and it works great on my custom ROM. It would be nice to have the text and HTC logo bigger.
240x320 QVGA
should i put both the animated and non animated on my device, how would i know which will work?
Thanks drmidnight, it looks great.

Well, after installing photoshop i decided to give a stab at my own start menu buttons and heres what i came up with.. i was super surprised at how well they turned out, soooo lol.. here you go
Great!
That looks amazing. Much better than the default round Background.
Very nice! I made 2 .cabs of these so you don't have to manually copy them into \Windows. In addition, you can uninstall it, then reset to revert to the old softkeys.
Vistabuttons.cab includes both the softkeys and the start menu select mod, while Vistabuttons2.cab contains only softkeys, and not the start menu select mod. And to my knowledge, this will not work on a (W)VGA device, so don't install if that's the case. BTW, all credit goes to the OP.

I see the similarities, but it's not a rip off. Just a simple button made with photoshop and not skilfully done as dwizzy130's.

The icon for the lock on your phone has nothing to do with the buttons. Its the rom. I cooked these buttons in with my rom and it works fine... i see the lock icon. And yea i could make these transparent.
yeah the screwed up buttons is a rom issue, I had this happening and rebuilt my kitchen, recooked and it's all good now...
Does anyone want this in any other colors.

Instead of all i have to say that your icons look cool but i think if it´s completely transparent i could see all the background in my omnia...and this is something i would like...
After spending the last 5 days trying different rom's and configurations I finally got my phone just as I want it - perfect - (apart from my emails not syncing but that's been like that for a while )
Anyway last night I went to send a text message and noticed my keyboard looks like this
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
as you can see the screen has sort of jumped up a little and it makes the spacebar bigger and all the symbols are half cut off. It is only the portrait keyboard that does this.
I have seen this before by someone on this forum but after a search I can not find the post.
I don't want to hard reset my phone for what'll feel like the thousandth time so does anyone have a solution to my problem. I was thinking that maybe someone could send me their keyboard files (if you know where they are) so i can copy them to my phone and see if it solves it.
Thanks
anyone know of a fix
I had the exact problem only yesterday mate. I flashed Dutty's latest ROM and everything was great. I then installed the currency keyboard cab (it gives a £ on the standard keyboard) and it did what you've shown above. Uninstalling it did nothing, so I did a hard reset. That wasn't a big deal for me as I'd only just flashed the ROM.
What ROM do you have?
just as I finished writing this I thought I'd unistall the currency keyboard plugin and the touch screen 3.3 cab to see if it made any difference.
After a reset my phone completely froze over so I pulled the battery out and then it booted up fine and the problem has gone away.
I've used both of these cab's everytime I have hard reset my phone and never had a problem. Strange.
I'm gonna install the touch cab again and then back everything up and then install the currency one again and see if the problem comes back.
I'm using Miri's HD2 6.5.x V3 rom

I'm pretty sure you'll find it's that cab then. Last night, after a hard reset, I checked the keyboard and it was fine. I then installed the currency cab and the keyboard was immediately knackered. I had to hard reset to get rid of it though, so you've had more luck fixing it than I had.
ok cheers for the info. I'm not going to bother installing the currency cab again then

Saying that, I don't think I've used the £ character since that cab was made lol
you guys need to be checking out swype... it is by far the best keyboard i have ever used on a mobile device!
