It seems to be very nice, I tested this before, uninstalled it and tested it again today, I really cant seem to get the niki slide out keypad working with it, anybody else have any luck? I want to use the slide out keypad for T9 search style.
heres the link to the ap by the way:

Slide finger to scroll contact list
Instant access to favorites & call history
Keypad & T9 contacts look up
Sort contacts by name or company
Instant access to favorites & call history
Full integration with standard contacts
Complete replacement of Windows Mobile default contacts
ive just replied to your other thread but for the sake of clarity i'll post it here too.
basically you cant do any type of keyboard based searching as the interface is based around using your finger to scroll through contacts. If you swipe your finger down the letters to the right hand side of your contacts you can choose contacts alphabetically which is probably quicker than scrolling if you have a lot of contacts (I only have 70 odd so its effortless to scroll to the one i want).
You can also use the menu to sort your contacts either by first name, last name or company
EDIT: Ive just realised that if you are on the 'A' tab that shows all of your contacts (like in your screenshot) If you press the 'A' tab again it brings up a little keypad that can be used to search contacts and/or dial numbers
PocketCM have same features, and it's free...

ive been using icontact and i like it a lot

Is there any shortcut i can use to directly go to the Speed Dial list wither from the Start Menu or by using a hardware button? I suppose there might be a certain *.exe app with a specific string to open the SPeed Dial app.
bump.........
if you're using WM6 just install HTC Home.. besides the fact that it's very useful with media and weather.. it also has a picture speed dial pad for just one touch dialing. i use it.. and it's wonderful.
i can upload an scr if you like
I have plenty of experience with HTC Home...
On my phone, I use SPB Phone suite with the drop down contact list as well as FaceContacts which allows you to flip thru contacts by sliding your finger across the screen.

What I'm trying to figure out is actually for my father, who's in the medical field... so his Speed dial list is over 20-30 items that he needs on a daily basis.... (labs, Radiology, Endoscopy, East Wing, West Wing, South Wing, Nurse Station 1, 2, 3, 4 .... etc...) ... so his current Speed dial list is humongous .. so basically I'm trying to figure out if there's anyway to link directly to it somehow...
After reading up for a bit, I did find out, that if you hit the CALL Key, then Left on the D-PAD, it will bring up the speed dial list... so that may be the best solution.
wait.. but if your dad is using 20-30 speeddial contacts why doesn't he just use FaceContacts? it would probably be the fastest way. even if you linked them directly he'd still have to go thru the list..

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Instead of installing yet another program, you could also go to your device settings - buttons - and map one of your buttons to the "Start Menu" command.
The (while still in device settings, go to "Menu" and designate those specific applications you just mentioned to appear on your start menu (I think you can specify max 7).
That would allow you finger access to those apps without adding another prog and also remember that the more stuff you add to today screen it eats up your battery.
cLaunch is much nicer looking than you think
The program is very customizable
Craig, this is my setup using claunch and a number of my hacks.

Does anyone know how to create a shortcut to Settings?
I've just recently bought and installed ProgramMenuPlus to cascade my Start Menu but only thing is that it doesn't handle the Settings menu so I need a shortcut to be placed on the Programs Menu.
Can someone help?
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnppcgen/html/ppc_tcuts2.asp
I have all of my control panel plus some extras as a cascading menu in SmallMenu, with icons. If you want, I can zip them up and send them over.

thanks Vijay, you're a legend on this boards. I managed to work out that with ProgramMenuPlus, you can add an extra icon on top of the normal Start Menu (just like in Seymour) and have dual Start Menus (the MenuPlus & the original Menu).
By the way, am looking thru the list of apps you wrote...I like the VJLumos, it adds that extra brightness at night for reading and makes a good flashlight
Keep up the good work champ!!
I actually use SmallMenu and ProgramMenu.
This is my SmallMenu replacing the start menu. I never use the start menu anymore (and obviously this is without using ToggleToday, for clarity):

}
Then I use a much smaller ProgramMenu menu assigned to my contacts key, to just load up PIM stuff etc very quickly, eg calendar, contacts blah blah. That way it's even faster then navigating SmallMenu's submenus... I launch it with my thumb, navigate up/down with dpad and enter. Very quick..I really like SmallMenu.
Thanks for your comments
VJLumos is very much for those who like to live on the edge, but the effect is certainly worth seeing. i wonder why they didn't implement the brighter screen to begin with! I've been doing some slow work to find a better way to implement it, but I'm waiting on some slightly better tools before I can finish it...

Guys
How can I create speed-dial shortcuts on the Today screen to start a phone call directly from the today screen? Is there some good freeware that lets you do it?
I can do it using a menu .. but how do I do it as a shortcut?
- JoKer
I don't know if there's any software for this purpose, but if you don't find it you can easily implement it using an application launcher + mortscript.
iLauncher does that .. but right now .. I am trying to spend my money wisely ..

Vijay .. Thanks a lot, totally forgot about your apps. Now a really stupid question. How exactly do I run these apps and provide command line options on my TyTN?
Whatever's your poison. Use gsfinder/resco to make shortcuts generally.
I use claunch to launch speed dials from the today screen... but you can assign to hardware keys or other launchers etc.
One combination I'm testing right now is to use a hack I've written to assign an app to the video key, and use that to launch "Launcher" from the Samsung rom. Using Launcher I can assign a menu full of my calls, so I can switch tasks and make calls from one thumb + wheel.

Spb Diary has a photo contacts dialer that can be one-tapped-to-call from the Today screen.
Hey,
Ive written a Listcontrol with Scroll support. It supports scrolling, activating
and dragging ( wait short when touch the Display, then you can drag ).
This Zip contains two files, grid view and list view.
It would be nice if you can test it, and give me a feedback. For testing it is also a little ApplicationLauncher, which should work for english ROMs.
It requires .net compact 2.0
greets doena
The control itself seems to work fine on my T-Mobile Wing, although the font in the grid is way too small and the grid's scrolling seems smoother than the list's. The list is kind of slow.
Also when clicking on the task (outlook) application in the start menu (both list and grid), it crashes:
at System.Diagnostics.Process.StartWithShellExecuteEx(ProcessStartInfor startInfo). It's part of my recent programs list, so I don't know if that could be the reason?
Do you plan to release the control?
Working ok on my prophet grid icons and text to small list just plain white grid runs better and managed to start screen shot

Hey,
thanks for your answers, its nice to show you're interested.
I have just changed the ListView, so it scroll like the Grid one, and shows Icons.
With the icons and App Launch Exception I have to look, what could be done, but I will find a reason ;-)
Sorry for second Post,
I have now changed the Font size in Grid view,
you ll find it in Atachment
greets doena
PS: please dont use the minimize button, it doesnt work well
