Caller photo size - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps

Hi there, I have a "problem" with the photo that appears when someone is calling. To be more specific, the size is very small. Is there an app that makes it bigger, like iphone for example?

You can use S2U2 and enable S2A (slide to answer).
Then you get full-screen photo and you need to use a Iphone-like slider to answer. Bonus is you won't answer accidentally anymore.
Hope this helps.
Search to find the app (is in the general software section, I think)

You need to enable Caller ID to Full Screen to get S2U2 to work with the Caller ID It's working really well on the Diamond. Might have a slight increase in speed if you disable the Diamond Dialer. But that's personal of course..

Yes S2U2 is the solution to your problem. Very handy application.
For you guys that use S2U2 do you have the weather info on S2U2 screen?
It worked for me once but not anymore

it works! thank you for the help...

After a day of tests, I found that with S2U2 installed, when someone calls me I cannot hang up. By pressing the hard button (or even the soft button when enables) it only mutes. Any idea?

U can use Inesoft Address Book (not free) to get big Picture
and u get better contact with photo too..

Use Diamond Tweak to disable it. Just changehone Pad Style, from Diamond to Windows Mobile Standard.
One setting above this you can disable the Ring Time delay.

U can disable the Dialer keyboard and use system defalt,
About the contact layout, it's much more better with photo
while looking for caontact, and 100% compatible to outlook..

S2A 480x640 picture
it would be great if S2A can use pictures from its own folder, because the standard pictures are very poor quality, what i mean is if i can prepare jpg pictures in 480x640 resolution of people from phone book, name these pictures like contacts in phone book or numbers and S2A will use them instead standard ones. anyone know is it possible?

I've noticed too that s2u2 caller pics look kind of blurry. Is there any solution?

Full Screen Caller ID

Is it possible to set up the caller ID screens to use a full size 240X320 picture when an incoming call comes in? I haven't figured out a way to do it.

What are you using to assign the pictures to the contacts? I'm not sure as i don't use s2u2 but i think the only way to get hi res pictures is using s2v (A_C's photo viewer).
I use S2U2 with S2V to assign contact pictures.
Attached is a pic of the call coming in and when the call wasn't answered, courtesy of S2U2 and S2V.
I've never had a problem receiving calls or any other problems with S2U2.
A fine (free) program.

i have no prob with blurry pix ...and ive used s2u no prob .. i even take pix off the internet and put them on my storage card and jus assign them in there ....all i do is go to my album and click the little head icon to assign the pic and it works fine for me ... now i have noticed that if you take pictures you have taken with your touch off the storage card and put them back on it later it makes it blurry but dont understand why though
Use PhotoContactPro

I use PhotoContactsPro as my contacts application but I use S2U2 as my caller id. I purchased PCP basically just for the caller id option and now only use it for the automatic profile changing. Even with the option in PCP set to full screen caller id, the picture would still only fill about half the screen. I could never get the id to ever be truely full screen.
i have met the same problem. the best way is that you use s2v to assgin pics to contact.

Caller picture from S2U without S2U ?

Hello,
I've tried the search function, but either I do not see it or there is nothing.
I installed the S2U software and I really like it, but I don't really need it. The only thing I really want to keep is the big caller picture from S2U.
Because I have a lot of other SW installed on my Wizard I would like to remove all unused programs from memory, which means also S2U.
Is there a way to keep the really nice caller picture or is there any other SW out there (Freeware?) which can do the same withour the "big" memory footprint of S2U?
Thanks for your help
Huibuh_1
Nope....
the callerid portion is intergrated into s2u2.
And honestly, the memory footprint is not that big for what it does. If you use a large animated .gif for your background, the footprint will get bigger, but a small .jpg is nothing in terms of footprint size.
How can you not want to lock your phone from those unwanted accidental calls!?

Thanks for your answer. I was just trying to delete whatever application I do not really need.

It's easy: I switch off my phone (only with the short press of the Power-button) and the only button to wake my phone is the Power-button. I never had any troubles with unwanted calls or something like this. And S2U is at the moment just another (additional) step to get to my today-Screen. That's why I disabled it.
Regards
Huibuh_1
read the instructions that comes with S2U - there is a way to disable the lock function and only use the callerID.

I have read the instructions and disabled the lock-function (see my reply above). My idea was to delete the unwanted part of the SW to have more memory available.
But thanks anyhow

I changed the look of my SMS's in the file read_style.css for example, so there must be a way to change the size of the photo in the original caller ID.

Contacts from the Todayscreen

All your Contacts? Or just some of them (e.g., Quickdial)?
If you just want key contacts for quick access, there is a cool product called Face Contact by CNetx that might work. If you want ALL contacts, I have not seen one....
Yeah, I have been thinking about this too, would be great if iContact could be made into a Today Plugin. I will pose this question in the icontact thread.

Try SPB Phone Sweet. I know you have to pay for it but there are plenty of places were you will be able to find it below one penny if you get my drift, I just cannot post them on the site. SPB Phone Sweet will allow you to post picture contacts, up to 15 I believe on the Today Screen. Really good function program which I used in conjuction with SPB Pocket Plus but have since then moved to SPB Phone Suite. Good luck.
first... thx for the answer´s and sry about my English
So i really looked for a today plugin who show ALL CONTACTS, like icontact i have now Facecontacts, thats great but i can only show a few contacts or all with many work... spb.... hm i have ultimate launch if i use spb too my kaiser will be slow i think.... so lets search another one
I wrote it in BURT thread...
I got UL too and in combination with spb phone suite there is no problem. My HTC touch is slower
ok but i think this have to look so:
Even I am looking for such thing from quite a while now.. but without luck.. I am trying to search or develop something which can integrate programs like Icontact/PCM image viewer to today screen.. Something like we can see in HTC Diamond but with less memory usage.. There are prgs like Throttle Launcher which does this, but heavy on memory.. consumes like more than 10 MB.. Anyone has any idea on how can we achieve this..
try this
you can use face contacts, its the best looking contact plugin available. and it scrolls like s2p cover flow (but smoother)
if u read u will see.... i use this.... but its not so good i think
As I've mentioned in Icontact thread
use one of your softkeys to invoke Icontact, or use Mortbuttons - you can assign one in today screen with Icontact and other phone app inside
Again Pisca, how does this establish a today plugin
1. not only icontact, any software what can do this, but in the today screen.
2. if u can look on my today screen? NO SoFTKEyS
I have set Spb Diary to show photo contacts on the Today Screen and it works out great...

See post in Icontact thread
You can also use DialTab.
Everything listed here are the best options. Trying to fit all of iContact as a plugin on your today screen eliminates the app itself. Doesn't make much sense to me.
Perhaps "Ineosoft Adressbook". You have a bar on the todayscreen, like the HTC Random Access and then the adress is popup. Have a look on it.
Or we can make a shortcut to HTC Random Access for the today screen.
i am currently playing around with my own made C# picture dialer that is displayed as a today item (very early beta i might add ). it enables a user to see pre defined photo contacts (which is of course nothing new).
as with most photo dialers, a long (2 second) press on the photo dials the number that belongs to the contact. (it also has an option to assign two numbers to one photo contact, which i find very usefull, eg the first number is dialed when you press the photo for two seconds, the second number is dialed when you press the photo for four seconds.)

Full Screen Caller ID

Anyoner know of a program for Full Screen Caller ID?
I have used S2U2 and Photo Contact Pro, but the only reason I use them is for the caller ID. I would rather have a program just for a caller ID rather than install extra stuff I don't want.
Any ideas?

If you just want a full screen caller id, I'd recommend S2U2, which offers a real full screen caller id, with the option of "slide to answer".
Of course it comes with other functions as well, such as lock your device and volume control, but you can disable all those from the S2U2settings program.

Slide-2-Unlock on HD2 ?

Would someone lucky enough to actually own a HD2 already
(thursday 6th Nov. 2009)
try out the http://s2u2.ac-s2.com/ SLIDE 2 UnLock v2 version (free)
This app will give you full screen photos when someone is calling you,
has a very nice homescreen with SMS, Email,Weather and all.
On the 6.5.1.ROM's on the HD it doesn't work well anymore.
Please test this on HD2.
File is attached from http://s2u2.ac-s2.com/
Hmmzz cannot attach the file even tho filesize is < OK

disable hardware keys
S2U2 works fine on my HD2 (though I don't use the CallerID function).
The only problem is that all hardware keys (except volume) wake up the phone. And worst, a long press on on-off key start the power-off panel (quite troublesome given that you can shutdown the phone accidentaly in your pocket).
Someone has a solution ?

I think it's ridiculously unlikely that that will ever happen! Do you keep random button pressing machines in your pockets?
I've had mine for 2 weeks now, and it's not even been out of standby mode when I've taken it out of my pocket, ever.

I've had the problem of power-off panel yesterday, that's why I ask this question.
And the problem for the other hardware key is that it is battery draining to have the screen on (and I don't wear baggies, thus it happen quite regurlarly)
Already installed on my HD2 very nice, anyone know how to disable the slider lock of origin HD2?
Look at the sticky "Leo hints and tips" item 27 Disable Auto Screen Lock
You can disable the original slider with the cab in this thread:

Also all day appointments is an option in the settings you need to enable!

You are right. S2U2 lacks a quick resleep function (which is present in TouchLockPro). When TouchLockPro has fixed the G-sensor detection, I think it is way better than S2U2 in terms of locking (except that it doesn't have the sexy interface). I don't really care what it shows on the screen when it is locked.
No, with S2U2 active, I can't long press the end key to turn off the phone without first slide-unlocking.
Fortunately, the panel is still locked after HD2 is waked up by a hard key. At least it won't be sending mails or dialing phones in your pocket.

Or can I just install ver 2.24 over 1.62?
