Never thought I'd want to keep a branding but..

...it seems, if I use the Fit4Cat tweaker to turn off the skinning of the phone, the t-mobile dial pad goes back to being normal windows-look one, but the smartdial no longer works! If i choose the menu option, nothing happens and typing part of a number in doesnt do a contacts lookup. Does anyone know what went wrong?

I don't know the why's and where fores but I hear you on the ugly TMobile Dialpad.
I used one of THESE (the reptile_red one) to change thedial pad and I still have smart dial functionality.

Best dial pad for your hermes (I or not)

Hi guys, just wondering which dial pads people are using/likeing.
I have downloaded several Iphone style ones, but to be honest im really thinking of going back to the standard one. I havent found one yet that has smartdial working, lets you video call, and the keypad work in a call.
Just wondering what other poeple are using (as most of the Iphone threads are getting very difficult to keep track of now, and I fancy something a bit different)
Cheers all

Surely someone must have a few to recomend?

Are you looking for something like this?

I disabled my smart dialer because I find it a pain in the neck.
Admittedly, it doesn't look quite as nice, but at least I don't have to sit there waiting for it to search through my contacts while I wait for the blasted thing to figure out what I *might* be typing in (and if I WAS after a contact, I would have used the contacts app anyway....)

I'm using the one from zombienexus that ericc191 suggested, and so far it's working perfectly. I believe it fits your criteria (unless smartdial is supposed to do some other funky stuff that I have no idea about).
The only thing is, though, it doesn't skin the speed dial and call history, so currently I'm stuck with the ugly blue buttons from the standard dialpad without any idea how to replace them.
Make sure you backup everything though.

i have a matter with this dial pad , not use for my PDA

I have never used this dial pad so I'm not exactly sure but.. I've learned that if you toy around with your phone enough, eventually you'll get it the way you want it.

Which one did you install? Mine is the exact one there. I think it's the black extra for 3g video.

Thanks guys

Request: i need "touch" dialer skin without the smart dial

hi, i'm new here, anyway i need the "HTC Touch" dialer skin but without the smart dial , cause whenever i tried to installed those i found on this forum, on my dopod 818c, it always loses the abilitty to "smart dial" cause i already have "smart dial 2.5 " inside the ROM so i ended up havin 2 smart dial on my phone, and i don;t know how to remove one of them , thank you,

Not sure if this is what your looking for but these skins do not have smart dailer.

I screwed up my bosses Mogul

My boss liked the dialer I had installed on my new Mogul, and asked me to make his look the same. Well I thought I loaded the same one I did, but apparently not. I loaded the HTC smart dialer extracted from the Touch, but instead got a blank dialer screen when I pull up phone. I threw in another dialer I had handy, but then got stuck at a default looking dialer screen asking me to enter my SIM pin, and that emergency calls can only be made without a new sim pin. Sprint phone, no sim.....
I plan on doing a hard reset Monday, but now have no idea where to get a reliable smart dialer for the Mogul that has larger buttons...
Any ideas?

Start looking for a new job..
Did he happen to have SPB Pocket Plus? If so, there's a Safe Mode in there that you might be able to get into.

Oh man, dude, that sucks. I'd do exactly what you're doing...as far as a dialer goes, you can search for one on here or ppcgeeks. Good Luck!

Check out post #8 on this page
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=378225
The dialer is called MogulBigButtonDialer and to skin the dial pad use the TOUCH CAB.
The final product will look like this. ( All in Black )
I will also include a screen shot of the one I use, but customized ( Colored )

This is exactly what I need! Even nicer than the one I'm using. I'll get my boss fixed up Monday morning. I think he'll be happy.
Thanks [email protected]$ !

Ok, loaded the dialer, then the touch skin, and the 1 key is missing. I see just part of the key, and number 1 is missing...any ideas?
Ok, found it:

[REQ] large dialer with smart dial?

Is there a large dialpad similar to idialer but with smart dial (so spelling out a contacts name will bring up their number) ? or even a way to enable smart dial?
iDialer here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2694308
or something similar to the minimal dialer here:
http://handheld.softpedia.com/get/Skins/Minimal-Dialer-64089.shtml
but doesnt use the diamond phone canvas as a base (because of the issues with wm6.5 & the just stupid amount of ram the diamond phone canvas uses)
currently i'm using the gorgeous Ryon dialer skin here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=508920
but the buttons are to small

Anyone know what dialer this is and where to get it?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1336681&postcount=41
Seems to be what i'm looking for

looks like an old version of inesoft try here
http://www.inesoft.com/eng/index.php?in=phone.html

You can try Yota Dialer (search here), except it's a little buggy for me.

thanks for replies guys but Innosoft doesn't seem to have smart dial otherwise was good and ya yota is just a bit too buggy (not to mention it takes up as much space as the regular htc dialer)
anyone else have suggestions on a large button dialer with smart dial?

There isn't one really.
I've been looking for the same solution for a while.
Put a request for a developer here instead. I'll put my hand in for the graphics.

iconsoft phonex has smart dialing and a large keypad, I think the latest version uses a lot less ram too a simple dialpad similar to that would be great to replace the small wm dialer

Maybe o3touch brings what you want? See http://www.o3touch.com/

phonex is not bad but when receiving it interferes with the windows 6.5 lock screen, otherwise it was actually pretty good, had smart dial n everything
o3touch seems to be a keyboard not a dialer so cant really comment on that
i came across a really good 1 but its incomplete, its here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=437296
its a VGA touchflo 2d dialer, the dial screen is perfect with smart dial and good buttons, as well the incall screen works great.
forgot to test out how it works with an incoming call and the wm6.5 lock screen (though it probably wont work that well)
but the big killer for this is that its not finished and in wm 6.5 when using smart dial the contacts all wash into eachother and become unreadable (the names will just constantly overlap eachother so its unreadable)

anyone know of a dialer similar to this but JUST the dialer, the incall screen is nice but not a big deal but any kind of custom incoming call screen will just screw with the wm6.5 lock screen
i've seen a boat loads of dialers for qvga (minimal dialer being really good) so their has to be something similar for VGA, or if their are any developers who could make 1 for 6.5
its the same dialer as 6.1 but because the lock screen already has slide to answer built in and an incall screen built in we only need to skin the actually dialer itself

and of course if anyone has a dialer they really like please share
