fullscreen photo of the caller; how to? - Touch 3G General

Hi all
please forgive the noobyness, I'm a fresh owner of an HTC Touch 3G 'jade'. I wonder if there's a way to show in fullscreen a photo of the caller in incoming calls... I did as follow: I added a shortcut in the TouchFlo menĂ¹ "People", and associated then a photo to that contact. When I receive a call from that contact, however, the photo is shown "minimized", not in full screen. Is it necessary a 3rd party program in order to have this?
Thanks in advance

Nvmind, gotcha. Simply S2U2 does the trick (quite tricky anyway, I'd prefer a single program to accomplish this simple task ).

Incoming calls notification

Hi folks,
is there any way of changing the incoming calls notification from this small bubble, where you need a lens to reed it, to full screen or at least half-screen?
Thanks for any hint
Have a look at S2U2 (slide 2 Unlock 2) It has full screen caller ID options.

thanks,
so I understood, there is no option in WM6 to change that? Only by a seperate program?
No nothing built into the OS. There are other 3rd party contact applications which also do full screen caller ID, but I can't remember which and they are all pay-for stuff anyway. S2U2 is a nice app if it fits round your use of your device.
Thanks, I'll try that. Are there any known issues? I think, I have somewhere read, that there are some problems with the cube?

Caller photo size

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.

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?

Use Slide to View (S2V) to set as outlook contact picture.
You can download from A_C site (http://www.ac-s2.com/)

[Request] contact picture for "private" or "unknown caller" ?

Dear all,
I'm looking for a feature/tweak, that shows a special picture if a caller with unkonwn phone number is ringing instead of showing "private"-text only on the display.
And I want to define this picture by myself.
I do not want to install tools like S2U2, even it woud be possible to adjust this due this tool.
I do not want to restrict unknown callers, but only to make it more friendly or with better visibility.
Has anyone of you an idea how to go on?
A single reg entry or description in which manila which settings have to made would be great!
Thanks in advance!
stepsch
Really no-one? (If a friendly push is not allowed, please delete the whole post, I will notice, thx.)
Regards

Call software

Anyone has any Software to change the "Phone" configuration....(size of the picture of who is calling, buttons aspect)
I tried the PhonEx but it had some issues, like not being able to do video calls, when typing numbers by hand you couldn't type more than one digit...You couldn't associate contacts with Facebook accounts...
Some real problems, so anyone knows any prog than can be a solution?
-----------------------
Another question, any application that changes the icons on the right top side? battery and the reception? any themes do that?
And themes at all for touch pro 2?
Anyone?

Simple Today Plugin - missed calls and voicemails

Hey, I have a hopefully quick question, but haven't been able to find the answer I'm looking for yet.
I have a Touch Pro 2 and am really starting to like the simplistic view of the Today screen without TF3D or the Windows Default views.
Unfortunately if you don't use TF3D or Windows Default, the Today screen doesn't display missed calls or voicemail notifications. Is there a simple plugin that will do this? I've done quite a bit of research and the only real solution I've been finding is PhoneAlarm which sounds good, but I am looking for a free solution.
Anybody have any ideas? I find it hard to believe there isn't a simple (free) plugin that will do this functionality...
Thanks in advance for your help.

If you're going for the simplistic view, then why not use the LED notifications for when you have a missed call/voicemail/text/email? Also, even on the today screen, when you have a missed call or voicemail or text or whatever it should display an icon in the taskbar. Beyond that, you're right I have no idea of a free solution to this unless you enable Sense or Titanium. Maybe other people will know more, just thought I'd suggest the LED thing
Try HomeScreen PlusPlus here http://www.chi-tai.info/cs_batterystatus_xda_neo_wm5_im_cs.htm
Thanks for your suggestions.
I'm looking for something a bit more advanced than a flashing indicator on the phone I want to duplicate the functionality of the Home screen on Sense (that shows the voicemail and missed calls notification and allows you to directly call you voicemail and see the list of missed calls.)
I tried the HomeScreen PlusPlus, but it appears to only track outgoing calls/texts and not the missed calls and new voicemails...

HomeScreen PlusPlus can do just that, but you need to write your own MortScripts or modify existing ones. The DigiClock skin provides these functions, but I think the graphics it comes with are for QVGA screens, so if you used VGA graphics with the skin you'd get your functionality. I may have MortScripts I modified that does exactly what your looking for as well, before I moved to Pointui Home2. Let me know if you want them and I can post them for you...
That would be great if you could post them - I'd love to try them out.
Thanks!
