Hi
Actually, this is for 3 questions:
I've read some topics regarding how to change the default dialer, but...
1) How do I restore the default WM5 dialer if I dont like it?
2)How can I insert the contact's photo into the redsquared area (it's just to show where, thx photoshop)
3) How can I have the same black snakeskin texture for my DEFAULT contacts list?
thx
nice dialer
Cannot help sorry but would like to know where you got the snake dialer looks cool.

BUT, it's tiiiiny, sheesh. How does one enlarge that pic to about the size of the red square?
thx
I have a dutch HTC P4350 and I hate the green today theme.
But when I change the today theme, the device asks for a soft reser and when its again up and running the dailer skin has disappeared.
I only have grey buttons which are ugly (imho).
Has anybody this problem?
Can it be fixed?
I was thinking that the problem is a invalid link in the registry to the default dailer theme because when I restore the original htc green today theme, also the dailer is restored (after a soft reset.)
Can someone help me???
Thanx!
No one has this problem??
Than I think I wil send my 4350 back to HTC for repair....
Too Bad
I have this problem also. I have tried two hard resets and nothing works.
Can't say I've ever used the skin, so don't know what it's doing, but the long way around might be to get the .tsk file (the theme) and decompile it with WinCE Cab manager to see what registry settings it's changing.
Then just ensure that those registry keys stay as they should after changing the theme.
V
hm .. the same problem ... ((((
Hmm, decompiling the tsk file, seems to be difficult.
I spoke to HTC support, but they don't know the problem exist.
Think it's a bug in the rom or ext rom because I have no problem with my HTC P3600.
try this
On my HTC Herald (p4350) the Smart Dialer Application skin has a light gray background and the text (caller/callee, elapsed time, etc.) is in white and therefore barely readable.
I changed the following key
HKLM/Software/HTC/?PhoneCanvas/Task0
in that I changed the value of the REG_DWORDs
DIALER/portrait/text:textColor
DIALER/landscape/text:textColor
from their default value FFFFFF (hex) to 000000 (hex). That changed the color of the text from white to black in both orientation modes (after soft reset).
I tried it on my brand new device and dont have this problem. I changed to the standard windows theme and I got a grey dialerskin (with smart dialing working)
Smart Dialing
I had a problem with the HTC Dialler skin disabling the smart dialling. After reading many forums i gave up on trying to get that particular skin working and opted for one of these http://www.zombienexus.net/portal/GH_ShowArticle.asp?HID=35&CATID=1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|10|11|12 The black skin is a little too black for my liking and was overriding the "HTC new theme". I just changed to another theme and back again and hey presto, colour scheme as I wanted it AND my smart dialler working. Haven't looked at the memory usage yet but seems to work fine after the initial wait on first use.
OK, I've put the theme back here, despite the second post as others were posting it here anyway.
I've used %radiophone as the second line in anattempt to get rid of the number all together. I prefer to keep the first screen simple because I always tend to press a contact, then select a number to call afterwards.
If you need to edit that field, follow the instructions on the PocketCM forum.
There is a thread dedicated to PocketCM - why not post there? Is it a new application developing or is it a hack?
Love to see what this theme looks like on my device, but having problems downloading the bliss theme from the site you mentioned. Do I have to be a member or sign in? Can you upload it here? Thanks in advance.
Didn't see a dedicated thread here for themes.
There are a couple of separate threads though:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334837
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=329917
so I started another one.
My mistake.
[edit] as others have now posted the theme here, I'm using the first post for the current version

I've ammended the first thread to reflect this.

Still having problems downloading it. I'll try again later.
I tried again, (opera browser), and it's not downloading the zip file. I'm pretty familiar with downloading/installing pocketcm themes and never encountered a problem such as this.
NICE!
Nice theme thanks downloaded and using now - been browsing that forum for a while and havent found anything - do you have any more?

Here you go.
A funny thing though, the only contact phone numbers posted beneath the contact's name when viewing the list of contacts are pager numbers, lol. I was tripping when I saw, out of 73 contacts, only 5 numbers were listed, lol. It seemed odd. Hopefully that'll be fixed soon. I'd prefer to see home, business, or mobile numbers. Just a thought.
thanks robo, the buttons are similar to my new icons i just made for the iphone theme, I like to stay away from color so that they are interchangeable between different backgrounds. this one looks good though, props

Waiting for yours, as I agree with you. It looks very clean for I prefer simple colors, or rather limited. The icons are the ****, lol (**** meaning really really good).
This is the best colored theme,good job. i was wondering if the side where the letters come down in alphabetical order could be black with the letters coming down in white to match the colored pattern going across. also was wondering if the alignment in the "contacts" view could be evenly arranged so that the tops of the contact name does not show after the last contact being viewed(like if you are looking at the contacts in "c" the very last contact name in "c" shows just the top letters) and when you select a contact and they have multiple options(sms,home#,work#) the tops of the last option is also slightly exposed atlest on my 700wx,but overall this is the best visual one i have seen.
Thanks all for your comments
robosiris With regard to the numbers being pager numbers, I actually wanted to have NO numbers at all. I explained in the pocketCM forum that I did this to simplfy the screen contents as I usually select a contact THEN choose a number to dial.
In the UK (certainly amongst my friends, we don't use pagers any more so I picked this field)
I've now changed it to %radiophone to show even FEWER numbers ;-).
However, if you want it to show a particular field, feel free to change the settings.ini file, as per the instructions on the PocketCM site.
mankoorb I understand about the top part of the characters showing, but as the app is totally "analogue" in terms of where the scroll stops, this will only happen if you use the index to select a new section. The next time you scroll with your fingers, it may misalign again. Also depends on whether you've got fullscreen mode on or off.
I don't think the index can have a background colour (might be wrong) so for now, that will stay as is (grey text, now very slightly darker than before).
Button height I've now changed, so only four complete buttons show when it's in full-screen mode.
Dave Hutch
ok dave understood. if the vertical index's color can not be altered, then maybe the horizontal index(once you have selected a look up letter) can be stretched all the way across the screen so it does not look cut off, and maybe the index letters can be tried in white to add to the brightness of the theme. with most themes being dark and using only 2 colors i enjoy this theme for its color and animated feel. good job!
The letter index (white on black)
cannot be stretched across the screen as it would overlap the #A at the top of the index (if I understand you correctly).
There are obviously restrictions to the app. layout as well as a vast amount of customization opportunities.
For other adjustments,you can easily do these to suit youor own taste by changing values in the settings.ini file that is contained in the bliss.cmt file.
It's basically a zip file renamed to .cmt.
Open it with Winzip and change the line that reads index_font_color=40,40,40
to index_font_color=255,255,255 to get white
For other custom changes, see the PocketCM site for instructions.
Also be sure to read up on the PocketCM thread here:

*****Updated 28/09 21:00 VERSION 5. Includes Trasparent scroll highlighter*****
First things first - I would like to give a big thankyou to MRE-net for the original idea for my theme, also for his help with setting up a CAB file. Without his input i would not have been able to have achieved this. Also for this task i have used the Manila ed tool to great effect so thanks to the developers of that as well.
The original idea for this came from this thread by MRE-net
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=420423
Warning: The usual caveat applies to this, use it at your own risk. However the CAB file works perfectly on my 1.37 ROM and has also been used successfully on a 1.93 ROM so you should have no problems at all.
Here is a link to download from,
http://rapidshare.com/files/151841827/TFL3DTABICONSV5.cab.html Version.5 NEW CAB
http://rapidshare.com/files/151842796/TFL3DTABICONSV5.theme.html Version.5 NEW THEME
http://rapidshare.com/files/148760101/TFL3DTABICONSV4.cab.html Version.4 CAB

http://www.uploading.com/files/54B3SUKA/TFL3DTABICONSV3.theme.html Version.3 THEME
if for any reason any file is no longer available on the links above, just drop me a PM and i will email the CAB to you.
Version History
Version 5 - 29/Sep/08 - As version 4 but with a transparent scroll highlighter (looks good). If you have the large icons showing on each screen then V5 is not for you as the large mid screen icons will dissapear. if you do then use V4 and download Pama's transparent slider(which itself may not work if you use the CAll history /callendar tabs) See post #42 for full details
Version 4 - 28/Sep/08 - Lots of new Icons here See post #36 for full details
Version 3 - 19/Sep/08 - At the request of user 'skizZO' Now includes Icon for Calendar tab, with relevant Manila files edited - *Important* You must already have the Calendar Tab enabled for this to work. If like me you do not have a Calendar tab available then you can get a CAB file to install one by searching this site. Also at the request of the user 'timoline' i have Inverted some of the icons so that they all face the same way(Don't know why i didn't think of that! Thanks!)
Version 2 - 18/Sep/08 - Now includes enhanced 'Messages' Icon and new 'Email' Icon
Version 1 - 16/Sep/08
Here is my icon set, All the files are PNG with transparent backgrounds.
***Updated to now include lots of new icons for the first level menus, see my post on page 4 for full details
The Call history - Messages - Email - Internet - Photos, and Weather icons i made myself using various downloaded icon files and a bit of 'cut and paste' wizardry. The Home - Contacts - Calandar and Music icons are files i downloaded without any editing. For the Settings and Programs tabs i used icons supplied by MRE-net(thanks again)
In my opinion they look great on the Diamond.
I don't use the Email tab which is why you won't see it in the screenshots, but there is an Email icon included in the CAB. I'm not %100 convinced with the Music icon, but i couldn't find another one that i feel fits better, i'll change this if i find a better one.
I particularly like my Weather Icon, took me ages to find and then Paintshop it to my requirements. It's amazing how hard it is to find good 3D weather icons!!
I have these saved in CAB file, which installs perfectly, so once again if anyone would like to try my icons you can download the CAB from here -
http://rapidshare.com/files/151841827/TFL3DTABICONSV5.cab.html Version.5 NEW CAB
http://rapidshare.com/files/151842796/TFL3DTABICONSV5.theme.html Version.5 NEW THEME
If the file is no longer available on the above link then please drop me a PM and i will Email the CAB to you.
To install simply- Disable TF3D
Install CAB (Automatic soft reset will occur)
Enable TF3D
And you're done!!
*** If you are updating versions don't forget to uninstall any previous versions of the CAB first!!! as the new CAB won't overwrite the old one***
Once again i give a BIG THANKYOU to MRE-net for his icons and also the original CAB file, without which i would not have been able to put this together.
All the best
Steve

@ lucag

@ Dynomite232
I'm in the process of trying to create an icon showing a Diamond with headphones in a musical type context, struggling a bit getting it to look good though so i'll post once i've succeeded!!!
Regards
Steve
Great job, like I said in my thread. Looks really nice, especially the sms icon. Keep up the good work mate !!!
I see that the screenshot tool is also working well for you ?
I do like the music icon btw....just like the camera icon. Wish I'd found that one earlier
Thanks, I've certainly got the bug for this now!! I'm working on some other stuff like new icons for the Call history list and various other bits bobs so hopefully i can come up with some good stuff.
Thanks for showing me the screenshot program, i'm anmazed how easy it is to use!!!
all the best
Are there also the missed calls and calendar icons?
@SkizZO,
Hi, unfortunately i didn't include a calander icon as i don't have the calander tab(don't think i have the original Manila file), as far as the missed call icon goes are you talking about a seperate 'Missed call' Tab? or do you mean call history? there is a call history icon but no missed call, this is because i don't have a seperate missed call tab. That said i could quite easily amend the call history icon to a 'Red' Missed call icon for you if yo want.
Sorry i was speaking about call history
Is it also possible for you to make a TFL3DTABICONSV2.theme file ?
Thank you
@ SkizZO
Yeah it's the top row third from the left. I will look in to a calander icon when i get chance.
@ timoline
Afraid i don't have the technical knowhow at the moment, i will look into whether i can do it when i get chance.
regards
Steve
Making *.theme files is really simple.
Just zip the changed manila files with Manila editor and rename *.zip to *.theme...et voila
Also another request , can you mirror some images so they all facing the same direction? (like home etc..)

any chance you could put a link for the cab file as none of the current links work. great icons...many thanks

Alternativly i can email the cab to you

Excuse me, in Italy this link for dwload don't work, I don't now....If you use or rapidshare or....tnks...excuse my english^^
I'm talking about the call history link on TF3D home page below the clock in the old (Diamond1) manilla...
I've tried everything inluding SSMaHo... Seems impossible, does anyone have a slightest clue if this can be done. I thought this would be the best place to ask.
