Dial pad software for SMS

Is there an Input replacement to have a "normal phone" style dialpad for writing SMS etc.?
Something like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

Just search for "Phone Pad International"
Some ROM's have this included by standard..

Doesn't work with additional language keyboard
I have an additional language installed with it's own keyboard, but when I installed Dial Pad for Hermes on my Trinity I could only use the default English keyboard.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Yes, you should install the international version

So I have done a search both here and google, but I can't find a place to download only descriptions etc. anybody got a .cab file or a website?

No problem dude You should know that almost every software is compatible with multiple devices as long as they run the same operating system I know there are some exceptions, but most stuff will work..

Well I wasn't sure if this applied to PPC as well, cool! Guess I'll have to spend some quality time in the other forums as well

Dude this is basic stuff... ..open the CAB on your device, install on the Device not on the SD Card

Thanks, that is what I had been trying to do. Got it sorted now

I've tried the English and International versions (one at a time) but although the Phone Pad option appears in the input methods list, selecting it doesn't - the input method reverts to keyboard.
Any ideas?

hmmmmm Orange SPV M700? Running WM5?..... dump it and re-rom

It's an M700, yeah.
Is that the only way to get it to work? I have no other complaints - why would I want to flash the phone?

He he..... personal experience. I got Dial Pad to work.... but couldnt tell you how, and it was not stable, Orange seem to have got the machine so........ busy, screwed up, call it what you will, but it wouldnt go stable, you need SIP chooser ( I think) and DialPad international, and then some chicken bones and an amount of good luck
Flash the phone... de-brand the Orange gunk (unless you like it ) and get nice shiney and new WM6, with Dialpad already fitted Oh and stable, and no Lemon branding..... but thats just my opinion

Flashed to WM6, working perectly so far! Probably a few things I haven't tried yet but it's all seeming good. Thanks for the nudge

UPDATE!!! Vista Iphone-ish Dialer... [2/13/2008]

UPDATE!!!
This is the newer version... the latest that ive installed... still no smart dialer... or video... but if you use celedial... that will work in place of smartdialing and its a lot faster... i mean A LOT! just google it, celedial...

This one below is the original one that I found... if you download youll have two options... to install the bottom one... just run the cab... to install the top one... just run the cab and then copy all the files from the "black vista dialer" zip to the /windows/ folder...
if someone wants to take the two and create it into a cab thatd be great... ive never taken the time to learn how to...

Thank you. Trying it now.

It looks cool, doesn't it? Thanks. Will try it as well...

does it support smart dial?

that might be its only flaw... but then again... i usually use vibrating keys (and smart dialer slows it down) and my speed dials anyway soo that isnt that big of a loss to me...

What today/desktop plugin is that in the background?
GREAT looking dialer too!

its a windows vista replica made with Wisbar Advance Desktop and Wisbar Advance 2... the skin is free... but WAD and WA3 arent

I need to buy those. Been seeing some good lookin things with them.

It looks good alright, but it doesn´t support videocall

thank you for your sharing

If only this app has smartdial...

I wish you could change the background,

I can do that...
But I need time and at the moment it's short....
I want translate this skin in italian...

Michaelr219 said:
I found this dialer earlier and to me, its perfect... I wish you could change the background, but oh well... to install, run the cab on your device and soft reset

Thanks a lot....... I had installed on my Elfin. It works fine but the smart dial is gone.

S2U2 Device Lock Today Plugin

Hello again my dear friends,
As you might installed and worked with S2U2 (aka Slide 2 Unlock), you would see lack of an item like standard windows mobile's Device Lock item.
First I developed an managed one (I mean using .net compact framework). As far as it can take more memory space and has less functionality, I coded a new application in pure C++.
I have tested this application on WM 6.0 and great TNT WM 6.1 on my device (Wizard).
I hope you enjoy using it.
I would be really glad to hear from you. So please post your ideas and comments.
Thank you.
Note:
1- Second file is customized for one of the XDA users.
2- Third file is made to fix the version 2.02 compatibility.

how does it work?
i've installed it...and now what?
how do i access it?

let's check it out...downloading now

Your post is not very clear.
What you're created is a Today Plugin to invoke S2U2, am I right?
Maybe you can add a screenshot?

Just install it on your Device (not your storage card). Then go to Start>Settings>Today>Items
there you should see S2U2 Device Lock item. Make sure it is selected and then press OK and close Today.
Now you should have a new item added to your Today Screen.

I did. I does what it has to do.
I already assigned S2U2 to a softkey, so I'm not using it currently.
But for people who want this on their Today Screen, it's perfect.

Great work ...
now I can free a softkey for other application ....

Excellent work..will try it now

Thanks for your posts and comments.

Excellent idea. Will try it this evening.

This is a nice fix, but I accomplish the same thing by adding the shortcut to HTC Home or claunch.

its really nice work

Great job.
Simply brilliant. A bigger icon won't be a bad idea.

What possibility you mean ?

Thanks for all of your attentions.

Great work! You should change the name of the thread to S2U2 today plugin though.

Neat little app.

Simple app I share with you guyzzz:
Updated [24.09.08] Ver 3.1.cab.zip Thanks to Member MACkjam and Member omniwolf for the heads up!
You use it to change the name of the Operator on the top right of the jewels screen.
You can put ANY text instead of you operator name (don't like operator name!!! Operator sucks!!)
No need of restart or any thing.
Saves settings after soft resets and off cycles as long as its got respective in Start up in Win.
Hope you fellasss enjoy.
I add a little screen shot as example:
Enjoy
All credits to respective creators.
I just found it.

hi Sergio
thanks for your sharing!!!!!
try it now.
ciao
EDIT: after soft reset you need to set up the personalize again ! or i am doing something wrong??

Nice, thanx.

Hi Marios,
is not the theme, you can delete manila files from Windows folder ( 1864da05 for bottom one and 18c460d8 for the top one) in order to clean the curtains.
another possibility is to use the cab that you can find here :

Now what would be sweet is if it allowed for a small bitmap image to work like the iphone.

Is there a way to change the possible length of the date on the left?
On some weekdays I have the problem that one or two letters are cut off in the middle. (German Rom - long date display)

This one is really cute!!! i use it for some time!!! And i love it.... it is like status on facebook or whatever!!!!
i understand that there're lots of more useful programs but this one - MUST HAVE #1)))))
Peace love n happiness..

i would love it even more if i could have no text at all there
oh just hitting space does that ^^ thanks

Sweet! Thanks Sergio

thanks for replying but i mistyped what i ment to ask is what is the reg settings for the sms sent sound also does the SMSNoSentMsg need to be enabled for the sound to work. Thanks

Hi Tom, first of all, thank you one more time by your work
Can you explain to us how transalate this great tool to another languages?
we can make the traslations an put them in this post, so everyone in the world can enjoy this

this is a great app. but could u add some features for email. like wake up screen on new email. or retrieve email as they arrive. almost all roms have faulty function to wake up screen in sounds n notifications tab for new email.
ps im talking about blackstone 6.5 roms

@Tom - great app! now my spouse can easily switch to non-threaded SMS messaging. by the way, have you released your app that allows you to use the New Manila Start Menu instead of the WM 6.5 menu?

Great stuff, will try it right away on my polaris wm 6.5. Would it be possible to include the sent/delivery notification for mms?
Thanks a lot
