Hello all.
I think it will be useful to get short vibrate on each button press in intelidialer to make it sure that button really pressed. May be somebody can write small program to do it? I know that there are several replacements of intelidialer that have such function, but they do much more and are big in size. Thanx in advance.
It will be great. :!: I think that it is possible to realise it by regisrty editing. Does anybody has an idea?
Yes, this will be great! :lol:
Plz Help :?
Anyone have tried motorola a1000? it have this feature...
(this is the only pros of device :shock: )
Yes i need something like that too, because when i press the touchscreen with my finger doesen't press every time, so a short vibrate to indicate that it is pressed will be gold.
I tried to find a solution but have no results yet. But I've made a registry tweak for the keys sounds like loud "one", "two", "three" etc. If anybody intrested in it I can make a cab a little bit later.
for me it sounds good, it's a good start, first we have tones and then someone can ad vibrate, it's better then nothing.
we are waiting for a .cab with digit sounds.
thnx.
I found somewhere a free dialer that claims to vibrate on every button touch but i don't want to use other dialer. If someone it's intereseted i think i can upload it or give a direct link, just tell me.
give us a link.
maybe it will be useful
Here is the link: http://www.pocketgamer.org/d9/
Maybe someone can make a seperate program just for the vibration, from the source code? :?
This program do the job for only 10 $

I find the way!!!!!!!!!!!
for i = 0 to 9
Give an example for "i" Button:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\Dtmf "i"]
1. Rename Standart DWORD parameter "Sound" to "Sound1"
2. Create new String Parameter "Sound"
3. Assign value *vibrate* to this new parameter.
next i
Hi StronG01,
Thanks for that. Its works like a charm. You are gr8.
Cheers,
Vishal
Thanks!
I can't make it work.. . I renamed the old "Sound" to "Sound1" , i Add a value string named "Sound" and then it ask about "Contents for <Sound>" and if i write there "vibrate" nothing happens. What i am doing wrong?
Its ok, I finally did it. The value that must be written when ask "Contents for <Sound>" it is "*vibrate*" not only vibrate, but with the asterisks too.., thax a lot, it's great.
Excellent find, dude,.
Thanks :wink:
Has anyone figured out how to remap the volume slider on the Wizard?
I hardly ever want to change volume, just turn on/off vibrate mode which is a single keypress anyway, but i would really like it to be an up/down control like my old Dell Axim.
I know it functions like this in IE full screen mode, but I really want it for everything (especially MS Reader).
I think a lot of people would like this. It allows a better grip on the phone whilst moving within the app you're using (eg: MS Reader).
Any guru's got an idea about this one?

Remapping
Absolutely neccessary thing to fix (volume slider)!
And as using double-language hard-keyboard layout I am in desperate need to remap the change-layout sequence.
What about remapping in this OS, is it possible to do something?
Someone did this on the Magician (found it in that group on here at the time), I remember finding it very useful!
If someone could do a Wizard version that would be great!
Solution Found
Here is how you do it (and it was on the Magician forums, thx for the tip :wink: ):
Install the program found at the URL below, or from the attachment as you wish.
When you get the setup screen, choose "Do not handle" for all except the volume slider, which is set to up/down.
Ok it, and there you go, slider is now up/down and works in MS Reader, Today screen, and general folder browsing.
It says on the site not to put it on any device not listed as compatible, which doesn't include the Wizard, but "He who dares, wins..."
I am well chuffed with it. Now I am all ready for my commute on Monday.

Unless this is a new version. DO NOT USE AEB+ WITH A WIZARD
I tried AEbuttons plus awhile ago and It deleted a couple of my buttons. I dont think it is meant for a device with as many buttons as the wizard. I had to go in and manually create the buttons again. I told it to handle all buttons though. Maybe telling it to only handle the volume slider doesn't cause this problem. I won't try it again until they actually say the wizard is compatible.
I just checked all buttons having read your post.
The only casualty is the connection manager button, which now only switches from audio vol. on to vibrate ringers when held down, and I have an icon on the today screen to go there anyway.
I can live with that
BUT BEWARE: No comms manager button = no hard reset = what do you do when you need to hard reset?

I just checked if it is possible to restore the connection manager button after installing AE Button Plus, and it seems to work
Just add these registry keys after you have installed the software and you have all your buttons back and an up down slider:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Keys\40C6]
"Flags"=dword:00000000
"ResetCmd"="\"\\Windows\\AppButtons\\Comm Manager.lnk\""
"Icon"="\\windows\\CommManager.exe, 0"
"Name"="Button 5"
@="\"\\Windows\\AppButtons\\Comm Manager.lnk\""
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Keys\40C5]
"Flags"=dword:00000000
"ResetCmd"="\"\\Windows\\AppButtons\\Record.lnk\" -b"
"Icon"="\\windows\\HotVoice.exe, 0"
"Name"="Button 4(Hold)"
@="\"\\Windows\\AppButtons\\Record.lnk\" -b"
You can put this in a .reg file and open it on your Wizard to import into the registry
I don't think Windows minds the button to be remapped for a hard reset, the hard reset will probably still work if the button is remapped by software.
Did you figure out which reg entries are actually changed when the slider is remapped by AEB? If we can figure this out, we could create a file to do this without the need to recreate.
I am also getting slowdowns/crashed on syncing via USB, and am beginning to wonder if this is another AEB effect.

I can't find any slider registry entries, but I have no idea where to look
I have noticed that once I close the AEB program my slider doesn't do anything anymore, so it might be possible that it is not just a registry entry
PLEASE DO NOT DISTRIBUTE THIS SOFTWARE WITHOUT ASKING MY CONSENT!
After seeing a request for a large button dialer in the Prophet forums, I decided to try to develop a solution my self...
What does it do/not do?
FSD is a more finger friendly dial pad than the WM default one.
FSD is skinable.
FSD does not have any speed dial/redial or anything more complicated than basic number entry.
FSD is a full screen dialer!
FSD will run on WM5/6 or WM2003 devices with .NET CF 2.0.
FSD uses the default dial pad once the call has been started.
Call/End hardware buttons do not work within FSD!
Pressing the call button with no number loads iContact
Pressing the end button with no number quits the app.
Skinning from anywhere!

Credits
Thanks to Vijay555 for allowing me to use and distribute VJPhone, which is used to parse the call.
Thanks to twolf for the skin!
Notes
FSD may have bugs etc, but I will try to iron them out.
FSD supports MoDaCo AppToDate, but the place I would host the files is down ATM...
The WM2003 cab is untested!
To change the skin folder, change the string "skin" in"HKCU\\Software\\L3v5y\\FSD" to whatever the name of the folder is and place that folder into the Dialer folder on your device. For folders located within the installation directory, put the name of the folder. For ones stored anywhere else, put the full path name (e.g. \Storage Card\FSD\Skin).
To change whether the app exits on a call: change the value of ExitOnCall (under HKLM\Software\l3v5y\FSD) is set to 1, the app will exit on a call/when the contacts app is opened.
Bugs/Issues
WM2003 cab not working well.
Hardware button mapping not great...
Change log:
0.25 fixes all known bugs!
0.24 adds some basic configuration options (click on the number display area).
0.23 now draws the number text on screen allowing for backgrounds! (Text is no longer in an text box).
0.21.02 has some bug fixes.
0.21 adds a "ExitOnCall" option. If the value of ExitOnCall (under HKLM\Software\l3v5y\FSD) is set to 1, the app will exit on a call/when the contacts app is opened.
0.20.02 has some bug fixes.
0.20 also uses windows default contact manager rather than iContact (EDITABLE).
0.20 adds selecatability of "silent" to show or supress error messages. Edit under HKLM\Software\l3v5y\FSD using the "Silent" parameter. 0 is off, 1 is on. Default is 0.
0.19.01 fixes a bug!
0.19 now changes the font size if the text string is longer than 10 digits long! (credit to lamandrion for the idea!)
0.18 adds choice of contacts app. (Change path under HKCU\Software\l3v5y\FSD using the contacts and contactsparm strings. If the paths start with "\", the path is assumed to be a full path, if it starts with anything else, it is assumed to be a local path to the FSD.exe file).
0.17 has better key mapping (left softkey does same as on screen call button, right softkey does same as on screen end button).
0.16 has some basic VGA support.
0.15.01 allows for skinning using any folder.
0.14.07 double click on backspace now removes last two numbers
0.14.06 changes hardware mapping (now the center button works...)
0.14.05 updates the XML file for AppToDate support
0.14.04 includes bug fixes from 0.14
0.14.04 adds skinning functionality (Change skin folder under HKLM\Software\l3v5y\FSD)
0.14 adds change of image when a number is pressed.
Download:
[/COLOR]Now with ATD support! (Click here to download!)
Get AppToDate!
Because of AppToDate support, it's easier for me to roll out updates by updating the cab linked above than uploading to this post.
Skinning:
Each skin consists of numerous files. Each number has two files, a normal image and a pressed image, as do all other buttons. The background image, only has one state, so only one image.
The number images and the call/end images are 80px by 60px for QVGA and 160px by 120px for VGA, although either size can be used as the images are scaled to fit.
The backspace arrow is 80px by 80px for QVGA and 160px by 160px for VGA, but, again the image can be either size as it is scaled.
The background is only shown in the top right behind the number. No transparency is used in the text, so the background image at this point should be white. The background can be 240x320 or 480x640.
All images should be *.jpg files.
The naming is as follows:
Unpressed numbers are named in single digit form e.g. the image for one is "1.jpg".
Pressed numbers are named in single digit form with press added on e.g. one is "1press.jpg".
The call key is "call.jpg" for normal, and "callpress.jpg" for pressed.
End is "end.jpg" for normal and "endpress.jpg" for pressed.
The background is "bkgd.jpg".
Backspace is "bkspc.jpg" normally and "bkspcpress.jpg" for the pressed image.
All the files should be placed in a single folder, and to apply the skin, the "skin" string under "HKCU\\Software\\L3v5y\\FSD" should be changed to whatever that folder is called.
Distinct AppToDate checks:
It's very thank you~~
Very nice!
And very usefull with this kind of keys...

What about a dialer like this....

Great!!
I love it so much.
Is there anyway to make the hardware buttons usable, then it would be the perfect dialer.

ATM, pressing the up button closes the app, and the center button should dial the number.

If you press the green button with no number entered, it loads iContact, although I can change that. Pressing the end button with no number entered quits the app.

Same for me
Good work so far!
Two thinks that should be improved:
1.
When i dial a number there is some kind of notifcation bubble and there is the number i dialed. is it possible that this bubble shouldnt be shown?
i have read something here: http://www.vijay555.com/?Releases:VJPhoneTools
"\Program Files\vijay555\VJSMSSender.exe" 1234 -silent
The -silent delets the notification bubble for the sms!
It would be cool if this would work for calls, too.
2.
Hardwarebuttons doesnt work
Thank you, very nice app!

I don't get this bubble on WM5/6, but I can't test WM2003
The -silent doesn't work for the dialer and causes my program to crash if I attempt to call it
As for hardware buttons, I shall work out how to handle/intercept the Call/End buttons. For the moment though, the center button will call and the up button will quit.
EDIT: there was a mistake in my code... Just retesting it!
EDIT2: adding the -silent parameter has no effect on my device (WM6.1) but may do something...

Wow!
Kudo's l3v5y, now I've finally found a better dialskin than the PaulyA's. (And there's someone else in the world that has no need for a "smart dialer", ehehe)
I use smartskey and use the Right D-Pad to go to Contacts, Up for Speeddial, Down for History and Left for PIE and it works flawlessly! One bad ass One Handed Dialer, IMO!
I took the liberty of modifying your 3b cab and hardcoded those two files in, compressed and make it not prompt for install loction so as to work with UC, I could post it if you'd like. (I, as always, take absolutely no credit, this is YOUR work)
Go ahead and post it! I have no objections...
I haven't set the paths to be hard coded 'cause the paths are all relative, and I use AppToDate to install it anyway... Also I can't work out how to make Visual Studio do it :s
BTW, the latest version (the 0.15.02) has fewer issues than the others, so you may want to update the exe in your cab!
14.0.7 latest build I see on the OP.... and my buttons are white, not the blue as in OP.... ??
Boy do I feel silly, was looking at your OP as I was playing with DxC's New IPhone Dialer Skin, which is why I was asking dumb questions, didn't apply to your work
I'll look at your stuff in a few, looks interesting!

Hey.
Here is the way to change the homekeys IN TFLO 3D.
In a registry editor, go to:
HKLM/Software/HTC/manila/
Here is:
HomeLSKPath, which is the left softkey (Standard = Phonepad)
And
HomeRSKPath, which is the right softkey.
If you change these with the location of the programs you want to link to, and simultaneous change the names:
HomeLSKText = Left softkey text
And
HomeRSKText = Right softkey text.
Changing the boot picture/sound:
HKLM/Software/HTC/HTCAnimation (startup animation)
and
HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Splash Screen (The green WM 6.1 logo)
BY "teddyen66"
Hi
Have tried it but can't get the labels or items opened to change. Can you post an example of the string you're using?
Thanks alot. Finally some usefull apps on the softkey!!!

Nice thought! I was thinking the same as well, or the other alternative is to activate/deactivate Bluetooth but does anybody know the string to Enable Bluetooth?

Just wondering - why use registry when you have that option in Preferences?
"Changing the boot picture/sound:
HKLM/Software/HTC/HTCAnimation (startup animation)
and
HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Splash Screen (The green WM 6.1 logo)"
So i tried it i just changed the path to another image (jpg) in the internal storage. I got a blank screen.
So does the image you choose have to been in the device?
Does it have to be .png?
If so whats the file path to the device.
Thanks very much or maybe im doing it all wrong you tell me please.
Cheers! thanks!

Yo dude. I just checked it out.
Try: Start>settings>buttons
However, there is only 1 button that you can set (or maybe that what i know),
from the drop down menu, choose "camera". Viola!
Thru trial and error, i found out that the Button 1 is actually the call button.
Which means: press it once to go into phone mode, long press (hold) to activate camera. Hope that helps.

I can't say how you do it in Resco as I use Total Commander, but at a guess, I'd imagine it's the same as it's a similar method for system-wide renaming processes.
When you select "CustomUIDLL", don't just click it - hold it down and you should get a menu. Can you not rename the key there?
Sorry if that's telling you how to suck eggs!

Well, for a second I WAS sucking eggs. When I did a click and hold I was able to rename the string BUT I got an error message: "The source value "CustomUIDLL" does not exist." Then the entire line disappeared! So, now I've reentered a string named "CustomUIDLLX" with a value of "NotificationLayout.dll". What do you think? Am I on solid ground???
Thanks.

Yes mate - if you can't rename the existing one, then that's the next best thing, but delete the original key. The idea is that the OS looks for a value in CustomUIDLL and can't find it, so works how we want. The suggestion to rename the key is just an easy way of keeping it in case you want to roll back. You could, if you wanted to, just delete the key and get the same effect, but we all like a way to undo our changes.
What is this supposed to do? I have renamed the string but nothing seems different?
id just download bsb tweaks, as it has an option in there to change it. it does need the netframe 3.5 though. do a search and you'll find it.

Well, in my case I now have the ability to reset the alarm snooze for times other than than the 5-minutes-only original 6.5 setting. My choices are now 5, 10 and 15 minutes, 1 hour and 1 day, just like the older versions of WM.

ALL you did was rename that one line and put an 'x' on the end?

My suggestion is that you install BsB Tweaks. I had some trouble creating the proper registry data; if you're unfamiliar with registry tweaks, messing with it can be dangerous. BsB Tweaks will remove the danger and give you what you want.

I haven't got any probs with doing registry tweaks, it's just that when I altered that particular line, no improvement was noted in my alarm snooze function.

I'm going back on something I said previously now, but did you restart after making the registry change? The majority of windows based registry changes need a reset in order for them to take effect (so windows restarts and rereads the registry).
Incidentally, the registry change was basically renaming the key so that windows could not find it and would go back to a default action, which, in this case, is to offer a menu for snoozing, rather than just a straight snooze. It's suggested to rename it (rather than delete it) so you can rollback later, if you want to.
Hope this helps.

Thanks. So all I am doing is changing the registry key CustomUIDLL to something else, that's it?
