Hi,
The query is about the "Answer", "Ignore" & "Mute Ring" not getting displayed in the incoming phone canvas in portrait mode, whereas the same is displayed in landscape mode.
In Jade, I would like to know whether there are any registry tweaks available to have the "Answer"(green color), "Ignore"(red color) & "Mute Ring" on-screen buttons displayed during an incoming call?
I had to use the hardware buttons (green and red physical buttons) to answer or reject an incoming call.
I have made few observations, which are listed below:
1. I have made the registry tweak to enable Landscape view. When the phone display is in Landscape view, if I get an incoming call, the "Answer", "Ignore" & "Mute Ring" on-screen buttons are displayed. It is only in portrait mode it isn't getting displayed.
2. The "End call" (red color) on-screen button along with few other option buttons are displayed on screen.
Thanks in advance
[Update:]Few more observations
I noticed something while receiving call during portrait and Landscape modes - There is a white backgound image that covers the entire screen in the portrait mode (over this image is where you see the default/custom caller image and the phone number). This image is the one that must be covering the 3 buttons, I am referring above.
Similarly, if you notice the background while dailing a number, you would see the image to fill only 30% (top part of the screen). Rest is the place where you have few other buttons and "End Call" (red color) button.
Hi, its me again,
I am still not sure on what needs to be done to have the on-screen buttons available during incoming calls.
Though, I was looking at the /Windows/ directory in the phone and found an image by name "IncomingCall". But not sure what to do with it.
Also, I am wondering whether there are any XML files to govern the placement position & size of the caller image and phone number that gets displayed during incoming call.
Now, I really doubt whether this is how it is in all Jades or is it just mine not displaying
[Update]:
I was searching the xda-developers > General discussion > Development and Hacking forum to get any info. Found an application called Minimal Phonecanvas (link here -->). Installed the full cab file as instructed. When testing, I could see that when I receive a call, I see the "Answer" and "Ignore" on-screen buttons, but I am not able to use them (meaning: when I touch the buttons either to answer or reject calls respectively, nothing happens.
The dialer screen options (for making outgoing calls) works perfectly though as described in the software description.
No luck still
[Update 2]
I want the incoming screen to look like this: Is it at all possible?
I too would be interested in an answer on this if anyone has the know how.
Jakai,
When searching the net for a solution, I happen to dig upon an application called Phone Canvas. Details are available at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=430354.
I tested it and it works fine. (Note: It doesn't work exactly as how I wanted, as mentioned in this thread. But, it may solve your requirement. Though I do not prefer it).
Note: after installation, your battery icon may always show a full strength. A registry fix is provided in the same thread on page 54.
I tested both on jade and works fine.
Hi,
Its me again
The following registry folders exist in Jade:
HKLN/Security/Phone/Skin/DIALER
HKLN/Security/Phone/Skin/PROGRESS
May I know whether the following folder value can exist?
HKLN/Security/Phone/Skin/INCOMING
If so, what are the entire sub values that exists for the same. I just want to test, if has something to do with changing the incoming call phone canvas as requested in the above post.
thanks.
After so much of researching the Internet. I couldn't find a simple registry tweak. But got settled with S2U2 (slide 2 unlock). It has the slide to Answer option with various setups. Actually, I am more satisfied than the original "Answer", "Reject" buttons, I wanted to enable.
If any one need this, just search this XDA forum - development and Hacking section with keyword "S2U2".
Thanks.
hi, i also have the same problem. is this really the default settings of incoming calls for htc touch 3g???or is it a bug or something?

Hello everybody - I am currently testing the Universal with the 1.11.45 wwe system, and I would appreciate any confirmation that what I have found still exists in the 1.13 system, as I am not sure if I should upgrade immediately or not.
- “contact” soft key is on the RIGHT when desktop is visible, on the LEFT in phone application and in the MIDDLE button during the phone call. JUST Imagine somebody in the car who wants to make a phone call….. especially with MISSING REAL HARDWARE BUTTONS to assign the contacts to…
- In the phone application – last unanswered phone call is not displayed on the phone screen – you have to click HISTORY to see it – just the same problem in the car – somebody is calling you, you can not get out the device on time, so you press twice TINY TINY green button on the hinge, and …. You call the last number you have called before…not the last missed one
- Phone application just shuts itself of and Universal comes to the desktop screen WHY? (Imagine AGAIN in the car….)
- REALLY ugly TMobile skin, but the original blue skin has to low contrast….Again IN THE CAR…
- maybe I did not try hard enough but I can not obtain predictable results with the onscreen quickdial (not to mismatch with SPEED DIAL butto which Is OK, )– how to obtain the names starting with second or third letter from the key – I don’t know, and anyway it does not work if you have about 1500 contacts as I have
- check how SPEED DIAL it was done in the old handspring TREO phones – large buttons with the names on them in two columns rather than one list, with whole screen “pages” of 12 contacts each, for me much easier to use and navigate if you have more than one screen of numbers as in the car there is no chances for easy up and down navigation, what you have to do now with the numbered list.
- With all this missing hardware buttons what happened with the D-Pad functionality – in Blue Angel it was UP- History DOWN – speed dial … but in Universal nothing works ?????
- “during the call” screen with 6 soft buttons stays on when the phone call is already finished – again you do not find the soft buttons in the right places when you want to make next call
- When I got rid of the TM skin video call button is missing, I can not use UMTS yet as it is not available in Krakow, but it will be needed some time…
- No BT icon on the desktop – no chances for the quick verification of the proper connection between headset and the unit
- I have heard that voice dialing functionality does not work when the unit is closed (I always keep it open – screen on the top)
- There is no voice dialing available when the unit is protected by the password (but this is disputable)
Any other comments / bugs????
Some very valid points - I tell my buds that the JJ (in fact any XDA) is not good for driving frequent phone users. Here are a couple of fixes:
- Quickdial is pretty cool. Just type the name in T9 and matching entries will appear. Click the match you like then press dial. Forget trying this whilst driving tho...
- For speeddial, search this forum for VJDialer, and put links on your today screen any way you like using cLaunch of another plugin
- Search this forum for buzz's BT icon, AND his BT headset fix. However, you will then find that the BT issues are far deeper than you currently realise - the 2 devices just keep on losing connection.
- Voice dialing works perfectly as expected no matter how the phone is laid out - try it, it's DEFINITELY what u need for driving. Works well with BT too
Hi all,
I have a Touch from Robbers and I use the phone in landscape mode.
My problem is whenever anyone calls me, the name & number is cut off at the bottom of the screen.
Does anyone know how to enlarge the incoming call screen?
I have searched the forums and I have tried a few 3rd party apps, but none work with Robbers name display.
=====================================================================================================
N/M everyone, found the answer myself. All I had to do was edit the bmp in the windows folder.
Something I really miss on the Blackstone is an icon highlighting the phone is currently set to divert calls.
Over the wkend I neglected to cancel divert and only noticed today that I had a voice msg on my 2nd phone - which is more robust for MTB'g
I've searched but couldn't find much of use.
Is is possible to have an icon displayed in the top bar ? Or adjust the notification led to another colour (blue perhaps) ? Or perhaps it's just not possible and is another WinMo "feature"
I would second this. The only place I know it shows is the dialer.
If there is a status call (I use WAD2) I can create my own icons...
Regards
Hey guys, my first real contribution here. I was using the Cell Broadcast solution with a today plugin posted here.
I had two major issues:
1. With Manila, can not use another today plugin
2. Need to use S2U2 because waking up of device, otherwise device stays on for sometime and screen touches are registered.
I played a bit with the registry and found out that setting two keys will reliably set a string which would be used for the operator name hence changing the string in Manila, dialer, etc.
I intercepted the messages coming from "Network" and extracted the CB body, if the device has been on for less than 5 seconds, then I assume that the cause of wake up was the CB, hence I suspend the device, its working quite nicely for now, will need your feedback for a probable general working release this weekend.
To do / Known Issues:
- FIXED: One key is hard coded as 41006 (my operator code), need to get it from phone. Otherwise ask user for it.
- Configurable from field, "Network*" is hard coded for now.
- Autostart using Init registry
- Hide / Remove UI
- For now UI shows incoming CB messages, power events, time difference between power on and message incoming for deciding to suspend or not.
Hello. I did search on this topic too. but did not find anything else that you do. but exactly what does not work. I got a newer version? thanks
Have been modifying TP2 with many registry changes etc. Running WM6.1
However, seem to have "lost" part of the standard dialer and have trolled through the forums trying to find what files and .dll are being used by the DEFAULT dialler.
The HTC dialler works fine but I do not like it, so when swapping back to the default dialer, the buttons and keys are there, but where the list of previous numbers should be is just a grey area with no entries. Selecting any area WILL bring up the call record as normal.
I must have deleted\edited\corrupted something..........but even looking through back-ups, can not find a clue!
Otherwise, any clues on JUST a plug in dialer (everything I find seems to be a full package with today and other stuff) - I like the dialler on the TYTN2 - both for size and colour and am trying to replicate this if possible.
Colours and size are good for tapping when driving as here in UK must NOT hold a phone as illegal!
ANy clues on files/which registry keys hold the colours for the HTC keypad etc. would be useful as doesn't seem to be HKLM\security\phone\skin
As loads of views and no answers, transferring to general questions
