I have a dutch HTC P4350 and I hate the green today theme.
But when I change the today theme, the device asks for a soft reser and when its again up and running the dailer skin has disappeared.
I only have grey buttons which are ugly (imho).
Has anybody this problem?
Can it be fixed?
I was thinking that the problem is a invalid link in the registry to the default dailer theme because when I restore the original htc green today theme, also the dailer is restored (after a soft reset.)
Can someone help me???
Thanx!
No one has this problem??
Than I think I wil send my 4350 back to HTC for repair....
Too Bad
I have this problem also. I have tried two hard resets and nothing works.
Can't say I've ever used the skin, so don't know what it's doing, but the long way around might be to get the .tsk file (the theme) and decompile it with WinCE Cab manager to see what registry settings it's changing.
Then just ensure that those registry keys stay as they should after changing the theme.
V
hm .. the same problem ... ((((
Hmm, decompiling the tsk file, seems to be difficult.
I spoke to HTC support, but they don't know the problem exist.
Think it's a bug in the rom or ext rom because I have no problem with my HTC P3600.
try this
On my HTC Herald (p4350) the Smart Dialer Application skin has a light gray background and the text (caller/callee, elapsed time, etc.) is in white and therefore barely readable.
I changed the following key
HKLM/Software/HTC/?PhoneCanvas/Task0
in that I changed the value of the REG_DWORDs
DIALER/portrait/text:textColor
DIALER/landscape/text:textColor
from their default value FFFFFF (hex) to 000000 (hex). That changed the color of the text from white to black in both orientation modes (after soft reset).
I tried it on my brand new device and dont have this problem. I changed to the standard windows theme and I got a grey dialerskin (with smart dialing working)
Smart Dialing
I had a problem with the HTC Dialler skin disabling the smart dialling. After reading many forums i gave up on trying to get that particular skin working and opted for one of these http://www.zombienexus.net/portal/GH_ShowArticle.asp?HID=35&CATID=1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|10|11|12 The black skin is a little too black for my liking and was overriding the "HTC new theme". I just changed to another theme and back again and hey presto, colour scheme as I wanted it AND my smart dialler working. Haven't looked at the memory usage yet but seems to work fine after the initial wait on first use.
Diamondish Dialskins for CDMA & GSM Touch Dialers Update:Aug3-2008 Updated Version!
Diamondish Dialer skins by [email protected]$ and superflysocal.
Most of the credit goes to [email protected]$ for initiating the graphics of this skin. I just added some finishing touches.
Update August 3, 2008: Vx.04 and Vx.34 WhiteGreen and BlackGreen dialers have now been finally updated with the new call history, back arrows, and darkened Progress Screen to match the rest of the series. There is also a new Green indialer screen courtesy of Bluemetalaxe (with his permission of course). Big Thanks to Bluemetalaxe for his permission.
Update July 25,2008: Vx.14, Vx.24, Vx.44, Vx.54 White and Black Dialers now with more darkened progress screen and more contrast with the grid along with the previous revised graphics. This should match more of the Diamond themes out there. See below.
NEW VERSION OUT SEE BELOW
Versions Vx.6 and Vx.7 has a black or white dialskin with a carbonfiber look/gray background. See post #8 and 9.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2345174#post2345174
We put in a lot of work on this. Feel free to modify the graphics for your own use. If you would like to share your modified work, then post it on this thread. If you want to use it outside of this thread (ie custom ROM, own dialer thread, etc.) I would appreciate if you ask us first.
For those who want the diamond look for a dialer but have not had success with other dialers due to lack of smartdialing, bugs, or 911 compatibility issues, we have created Black and White style Diamond dialer skins for Touch layout dialers. It was written for Touch dialers that time tested for their stability and compatibilty. These are only a skin for the dialer and should not affect 911, smartdial, redial, ##*# functions, etc.
I have decided to start a new thread since the old one contains so many post of bugs and failures. I have redid all the cabs and they have all tested well so far. I can update the thread better than [email protected]$ right now, so he has given me permission to start a new thread. Old thread is here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=402708
These dialers are written for and tested on 3 different types of Touch dialers:
V2: CDMA Titan phone w/ BigButton Dialer or BlueFrog_Touch Dialer installed. These will install into the \Phoneskin folder.
V3: All other CDMA Touch dialer layout (all Touch phones). Make sure on the Progress In Call page, there is a separate Call and End buttons, before you pick this version. Some GSM phone with this type of Progress In call page will work with this as well. See second image of this post. These will install into the \windows folder.
V4: GSM Phones with HTC Dialer.cab or Wizard_reTouched_Dialer.cab installed. Make sure on your Progress In call page, that there is an End button that turns into a Call button after you hang up, before you pick this version. See third image of this post. If you have a separate Call Button and End Button on the Progress In call page at the same time, then use Version V3 (see above). These will also install onto \windows.
If you have these type of phones but they don't install in these directories, please post your phone and where the graphic files are suppose to go.
Caveat: These dialers disables the "text" on the progress (during call) page. The disadvantage of using icons instead of text here is that some of the buttons change state after you hang up. There are two instances: On the touch dialers (non-titan), the Speakerphone button becomes the Call History button after you hang up. On the titan with Big Button/BlueFrog dialer installed, in addition to this, the mute button becomes a save button if the number you justtalked to is not on your contact list. On this dialer, the icons will not reflect this change. Thus, although the function of the buttons will change after you hang up, visually the icon will not reflect this. There is no way around this. If this bothers you, don't use this skin!(Or you can use Tom108 modification linked at the end of this post which doesn't have icons on the progress page)
Installation: Make sure you have a Touch style dialer such as stock Touch dialer, HTC Dialer.cab I inlcuded below (for GSM only), or Mogul Big Button dialer (or one of its variant like the BlueFrog dialer i included on this post). Download the correct verison of the cab for the dialer skin you want. If after the cab install it doesn't ask you to soft reset, then it is highly recommended that you use a software soft reset instead of the button on your device. I have included a SmartUtilities cab below that will install a software soft reset (just go to Start->Program->Soft Reset..a German pop up will appear, select the left button to soft reset). The alternative is to wait about 5 or longer minutes before doing a soft reset, but even then it is not guaranteed the registry will stick.
Uninstall: If you have a stock Touch dialer like Sprint Touch or Touch dialer built into your ROM, when you uninstall, it should revert you back to your old default skin. For titan user with Big Button or GSM user with HTC Dialer or wizrd_reTouched dialers installed, when you do an uninstall, your default images will be lost. To recover, reinstall your dialer cab (Big Button, BlueFrog, HTC Dialer, etc.). If the text on the Progress screen doesn't reappear, try looking here:

!Warning! Use this Dialer at your own risk.
I am not liable for any damages what so ever
if you chose to install this dialer.
If you post this dialer on any other thread / forum
please mention me and forum xda as credited sources.
Enjoy.
Please make sure you download the right version for your phone/dialer (see above).
They can be found on the posts that follows (2-6).
I have also included on this first post a copy of BlueFrog Dialer cab (the latest variant of Mogull Big Button Dialer by Paul Hammond) which is required for CDMA Titan phones only, as well as a copy of the HTC Touch Dialer which is for non-Touch GSM PHONES ONLY. CDMA and GSM Touch phones with stock touch dialers should work without any additional cabs. If you have a phone with a custom dialer cooked into a custom ROM, then it will probably work, but it depends on the layout of your progress in-call screen. Read the versions explanantion above for details.
Others have contributed by making some modifications that suits their needs. I will post their links here:

Sorry for a probably studid question. But can this beatiful dialer be used on a HTC P3600 (trinity)?
And if it is possible, how do I do it?
Thanks

I assume that is a GSM phone. Does your default or current dialer have the same layout as the screen shots you see? If so, then just try installing the skin.
IF not, then uninstall any previous installed dialers, then install the HTC dialer.cab on the first post and see if all functions work well. If it does, then install one of the V4 skins.
really nice collections...
Thanks...
The rest of the titan versions have been uploaded.
Hi,

It should, but these dialers do not support video calling.

they work fine on my polaris... install HTC Dialer.cab first tho.
I have got it working with Smartdialing on HTC Touch Cruise. I used the "Diamondish WhiteGreen Dialerv3.31.cab"
Thanks for the great job. Only the left star button stays black. see image. But it works great.
I'm looking for solution to change carrier name to carrier logo at the right top corner of the home tab.
I tried script from mUn and D-MAN, changed logo to mine carrier, put files to the \Windows folder on the device, restarted tf3d. Carrier logo appeared but the date changed to January 1, 2008 and time was set to 0.00. Clock was not working. But if i got to the Settings->Date and Time there i see proper date and time.
Is there any way to fix that?
Or may be another method to change text to logo?
any ideas, guys?
P.S.
i can't get answer on that question on some other forums too. Is that means that only i intersted in this?
Nope. You can change the text, but to change the logo, you have to have a stock tf3d. Such as the attel, t-mobile, at&t, and sprint tf3d versions.
you could use the cab to make no text in the corner and edit the wallpaper with your logo
mUn and D-Man made thу script to change logo but it works only with specific versions of tf3d. But i was trying it on a different versions of manila and it does not works for me.
My Touch HD was purchased second hand and i cannot figure out how to change the owner name that is displayed in the right hand corner above the clock on the touch flo home screen.
Same line displays the service provider in the left hand corner.
I changed the owner info under "settings" - "personal" - "owner information"
but this does not seem to change the name displayed on the home screen
The Rom is Miri WM 6.5 17.0 WWE
Any ideas?

Hi,
first ... welcome to the Forum!
I would try a Hardreset.
If this won't work ... i know here are Tools that can change things like this, but really don't remeber their names.
Try a search.
regards
fwt
Would also recommend asking within Miri's rom thread as every rom is different and settings you change on one rom may not affect another in the same way.
Obviously try what fwt said first
You can use Max TF3D Theme Maker to remove that or even change it to your own name.
There are other programs that can do the same thing... these can be found in the Wiki.
Have fun with your HD.
reflash miri rom should erase all the customization previous owner made
Ive searched and found some information also tried kheb but now im even more confused.
When RUN CC runs it shows an orange screen
It then briefly shows another screen and then the orange one again with some text saying preparing device for first use
What I want to know which file is which and which ones shows when.
The next question is about manila and today screen and lock screen. I changed all of them and got the following with kheb:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Desktop]
"wallpaper"="\\My Documents\\My Wallpapers\\Wallpaper (13).jpg"
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila]
"HomeBackgroundPath"="\\My Documents\\My Wallpapers\\Wallpaper (6).jpg"
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today]
"Wall"="\\My Documents\\My Wallpapers\\Wallpaper (1).jpg"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\HTCSettings_Improvement]
"LockWallpaperBackup"="\\My Documents\\My Wallpapers\\Wallpaper (13).jpg"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Splash Screen]
"MSBitmap"="\\windows\\Windows_Logo.jpg"
I though the screen behind manila is the same as the lock screen but in here i see a today screen, a lock paperbackup, wall and msbitmap
Can i please get some clarity on all this?
i know the last entry is the startup splash screen which i think is the one that shows inbetween the two orange ones from run cc. Should i make that one and the two orange ones the same to get only one pic or is it normal for run cc to be soooo ugly?
Essentially what i would like to know :
How to cook manila wallpaper in the rom
how to set the lock screen wallpaper (OBOE) i swa n reg entry but dont know if i can just change it
Set startup logo (the one that shows when the phone starts up after the gif file is played)
How to set today screen wallpaper?
Boot UP
Ok I figured some of it out :
When hard resetting it does the following :
1. Show hTC_animated.gif + HTC-QuietlyBrilliantBoot.wav from ext\Operator Package
2. Shows Welcomehead.png from OEMDrivers plus the orange progress bar called pb1.bmp upto pb15.bmp
3. Then shows the Welcome Logo (shows everytime you restart) called welcomehead.192.png on rhodium but can be found under WindowsBuild\All\WhateverDPI\file.png im sure its different for different phones
4. Then Runs CC and shows the RunCC_default_bg_480_800.jpg file (can eb found under EXT\Run CC folder with its own progress bar files called runcc_progress-00 to runcc_progress-15.bmp
Ill report the rest when i figure them out ... wallpapers etc
