Since iFonz and iPhone themes started making there way onto our ppc's , I have tried to find a dialer to go along with the overall look. But everyone I try has the same bug (locking up between status and keypad) as the other, if not more. So I made a skin for one of the most stable dialers I have found. Smartdial works, 911 works. Everthing works. My skin doesn't compare to the brilliant dialpads like Nargz or Dcx but I believe it's pretty decent. It will hold me over until one of them get the kinks worked out anyway. But thanks to "Jimm98y" for creating the original dialer, and thanks also to "kidnamedalbert" for creating the .cab file and making the skin easy to install. I havent had much time to see if there are any flaws in the skin, but if you notice any , post it and I'll have it fixed by the next day with a updated version posted. Also these skins are fully customizable. So if you have a request for a special background of any kind, any certain button design or button layout, anything at all , let me know and I'll try to get it to you.
Instructions are easy,
*First Install the .cab found in the "Install First" folder.
*Second Install the .cab found in the "Install Second folder.
Ok, after you install the first cab, it will tell you to restart your device. Hit cancell, DO NOT restart yet. Then go install the second cab. THEN DO A SOFT RESET.WILL NOT SHOW UP UNTIL AFTER RESET! Thats why its easier to cancell the first reset and just do one after both cabs are installed. Or do a reset after each cab instillation . This should fix you alls problem of it not showing up .Let me know , & sorry I didnt specify this earlier.
GSM/CDMA
Ive used this for around a month now on my CDMA ALLTEL VOGUE/TOUCH. Every feature works. Ive not had one problem since installation. However, this dialer was originally for gsm. There are reports of it working on both. We'll know when the feedback piles up. But Im confident it will work on both, and with the new instructions, there wont be any more trouble.
Features:
Im trying my best to work some more in. Smartdial works on my phone so ill have to see which ones it doesn't on then try to patch it up. The Smartdial option should be located under the menu option while on the keypad. Im working to add video call and a few more features.
Some pics would be nice!!
Any screenshots?

Sorry, heres some pics. My screen capture app sucks so a couple of the words look different darker and lighter, but thats just the pics, it doesn't have that problem on the phone.

Nice work!!
However, be careful when you say 911 works. It depends for what kind of phone you are talking about. If it is a GSM phone, then probably, but I doubt if 911 would work with a CDMA phone. If I am not mistaken, Jimmy98 dialers are based on GSM phone, so you will have issues with CDMA phones like Sprint.
With that said, any chance you can post the raw graphics files used, maybe in png's or other graphic file format?
You made this dialer????
CDMA/GSM
Actually to my surprise its working perfect on my CDMA Touch Vogue. I also recieved a PM saying its working on a GSM phone as well. Hopefully it stays that way. One dialer for GSM and CDMA, I hope. But Ive used it on mine now for a month with no flaws yet. I would love to know what everyone thinkds though. Custom requests welcome. From Spiderman to Lillies!
Skin
I made the skin. The wonderful dialer was made by Jimm98y.
where can I get smartdial feature for this dialer?
If its included, then its not working on my XDA IIs...
Cheers
EDIT: Smart dial works. I just didnt know that after pressing the numbers, you have to press "Hide Keypad" to view the filtered contacts...
Sorry about that...

What carrier are you on? I am pretty sure Jimmy98y dialer was written for GSM, so even though things seems to be working now, you will probably run into problems in the near future. How do you know 911 is working, btw? If you are on Sprint, do this simple test: Pull up the dialpad and type ##data# (or ##3282#), does the data provisioning screen of EPST come up? If not then it is not written for CDMA.
On the other hand...nice work on the graphics. can't wait for you topost or send the graphics files.
I installed this on my CDMA Touch. Its working but it doesn't look like the screen shots. My "talk" and "End" buttons are not red and green. and I have no Earth background
Smartdial
Theres an option to turn smartdial on on the menu on my vogue. Theres also som reports of it working on GSM devices, but Im unable to test this.
NEW
New Directions In The First Post
Unfortunately it's not working well on my tmobile wing with open touch v3 lite rom, mostly having trouble with Jimm98y's dialer itself. The smart dial sorta works after hiding keyboard, but I can't get it to re-dial the last number (it's important because lot of the times I'm simply returning a call), nor can I access my contacts from the dialpad screen. It behaves very similar to the other iphone dialer but I didn't get to a point of freezing yet. Now I'm back to the old touch dialer that came with the rom.
However I do see that the call status screen is very similar to the touch dialer. Is it possible that I only use that portion of the graphics? It's not too difficult to customize the dial pad using tdial but I could never get the status screen to look right. If you could share your graphics, or simply make a skin pack for touch dialer then it'll be great!
Thank you for the hard work.
Stability
I choose this dialer because its so stable. Even if you by chance loose a feature, in my opinion its worth the stability. Ive used it for a month now and not had 1 dialer related lockup or problem. In my opinion its worth it. Hopefully you enjoy. Any custom requests still welcome, just post it.
YES
If your having a problem with this dialer itself, I can try to create the skin for you dialer of choice, Stock or Not. Just post all the original graphic files on here and PM me and tell the page and post number there on. I can do it fairly quick. 24-48 hours.
I don't have the original pictures of the touch dialer I'm using, but it's the same as people discussed in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=372098
I could care less about the earth background (too !phony) but I do like the red end button and green talk button on the status screen in your skin and the texture of those buttons. And if possible could you use these attachments as backgrounds? I use this as my wallpaper for today and for S2U2 and it'll be very nice to go with these.
Thank you!
Hi,new patchs are available :
- Hot fix for resolving a display flicker of the title bar in TouchFLO 3D 2009-01-07
- Hot fix for improving the on-screen slider feature for answering calls 2009-01-07
this one?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=468399
the slide to answer hotfix already declared not only useless but also harming. see here the solution:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=468608
even the clowns at HTC realized that the fix is doing more damage than good and they "make it disappear".
hope nobody else jumped to install this fix (if it is still there). a short search before post is highly recommended, no matter how good yr intentions are.
Those seem to be new fixes, anyone tried them yet?
I just did a filecompare on the original file I still had and the new "_HTC Touch HD_TouchHD_display flicker.exe", they are identical.
I don't have the original _HTC Touch HD_Touch HD_SlidingAnswer.exe anymore so I can't check that, did HTC actually fix the bug in it?
Theres original 1/7 published fix if someone wants to compare it to version wich is on htc support now.
If you want i can make a clean install cab with all correct fixes incl. without the unnecc. reg entries incl. uninstall.
let me know if you want this.
for now. here are all relevant files from all 3 fixes as zip
!!PLS: but as you know, the "videocall button switch to call histroy bug" is there inside and isn't fixed !
These belongs to file:"phcanhtc.dll" !!
So my tip - copy all files (exclusive "phcanhtc.dll") to your windows dir and let me know how it works and if a cab for it is neccesary.

Didnt realise there was anything wrong with the slider in answering call anyway. Seems ok to me...

I actually like that feature never really did use the video calling feature
I can dial video phone
Yesterday, I installed the hot fix of "Hot fix for improving the on-screen slider feature for answering calls."
And I check the video call function, it's normal~
I didn't see "call history" on the left bottom. I also ask my friend to help to check it. His Blackstone is normal. We both can dail video phone.
Did I miss something or the HTC hot fix is fixed?
http://www.htc.com/europe/supportdownloadlist.aspx?p_id=179&act=sd&cat=all
Yeap, HTC re-released a working version of the patch at the end of last week.
They have indeed fixed the hot fix. The one that's there now works fine. If you installed the old "fix" you can just install the new one on top of it - no need to uninstall
I've been trying to insyall the slider fix and it tells me I have the incorrect version. I just uninstalled the old version and installed the new fresh from the site. Any ideas?
Am new to Windows Mobile and would really appreciate if someone could answer atleast some of my doubts.
1) The speakers ... is that the loudest we can go? I have a P1i that I tweaked thanks to Swmail and its like real loud!
2) Most decent Nokia have a feature that when a call is received "speaks out" the caller name from the address book. Do we have a similar option in Xperia/ Windows Mobile?
3) When I receive a call, the callers name is almost invisible ... I mean its so small that a person like me having below average vision has trouble figuring out the caller's name! Is there no in built tweak to rectify this problem?
4) I have downloaded and installed the MyLostBlog HTC Calculator.cab ... why are all the backgrounds black for most softwares around here??? Is it not possible to adjust colours to go with the theme? I mean, can I just not install any software and the theme gives the software the looks?
Having got the Xperia, I'm now in a stage where I have to learn the OS fresh ... feels uncomfortable with all the small fonts and buttons. I'm now wondering if this was a mistake and if I should give up so soon or work my way into comfort zone!
Your advises and help will help me hang on!
Cheers!
1 - I'm sorry, but this was a mistake by SE. The speaker is awful, but there is nothing you can do about it. I wish we had stereo speakers on par with the N95 too. When I use it for video or audio, I always put my headphones. I don't see a problem about it. The only irritating thing is that you won't be able to hear the ringtome, but that is what vibration is for right?
2 - There are many programs that do this. I haven't tested them, because I find the feature annoying. Do it on your own risk:
Voice Call
Phone Tray Free
Ascendis Caller ID
Audio Caller ID
and many more. Just use google .
3 - You need a program like SPB Phone Suit or PhoneEx 1.3 (the one I'm using). PhoneEx is great. Big names and numbers. It is very finger friendly.
4 - Because black = cool. After all everyone wants to be Mr. Black (10 points to whoever caught the reference ). Anyways, HTC devices are black and the Xperia most people have is black, so people make programs with black fonts.
And no, the theme cannot change the colours of the programs that you install.
You say that you are a new WinMo user. Well, that means that you have to read and learn a lot of things. No way around that. WinMo is not intuitive. It is not like most of the smartphones or featurephones with their flashy, but often useless oparating systems. It is annoying at the beggining, but when you learn how it works and get the little quirks here and there, it will become the best operating system for ppc's.
Plus, there are literally countless number of applications for WinMo and a lot of them are free.
Xperia has great touchscreen that allows you to click even the little icons with ease. If it is not responsive, you should change the settings for the screen sensitivity. Start>Settings>Screen or use this method, but be careful what you do and read the instructions carefully:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=485037&highlight=screen+sensitivity
It really depends on what kind of phone you want. Xperia is perfect for me and as I have said before, I cannot imagine my life without it. If you want to have a pocket pc with you and if you are preapred to spend many hours reainstalling, hard-reseting and tweaking, then you have made the right choice.
A piece of advice I give to every newcomer:
Read the topics in this forum. Just open random topics and learn about your device. Use the search functions. 99% of all your question have been answered in other threads.
I had some experience with WinMo when I bought the X1, but I wasn't very good. Now, I have full control over every aspect of my device. It has integrated itself in my way of life. All thanks to this forum...
I don't want to promote myself in any way, but check this thread out. I have put some random thoughts concerning the X1 there :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=506512
Cheers
For bigger incoming call notification you can also use a few other options:
-S2U2 has slide to answer support
-the touch HD caller also offers full screen caller ID
-resco (don`t know for sure)

Sorry but this is absolutely wrong... I used the OPTXperiabeta02.cab and experienced great loudness from that single speaker and hear the ring all the time, in fact the cab worked so well that I had to turn the sound down for calls as well... too loud...

No problem. We are here to help each other aren't we?
You can make it louder, but the SOUND QUALITY will not change. There is no bass and the high frequencies sound awful. The speaker is tiny and of bad quality. You had to turn it down, because the sound was unpleasant. Am I right?
I installed optxperia, too, and am very happy that I can hear my phone ringing better. The sound is somewhat distorted due to the limited speaker quality, so I turned it down. I am enjoying having good volume for games, alarms, and calls, though!
I don't need great speakers on a phone, because they are never going to equal the sound quality of good headphones, anyway. I always listen to music with really good headphones for a better listening experience, as I'm picky about sound quality.
i also help big problem looking at the caller id for incoming calls. stressing my eyes to do it. which application is better? where can i download PhoneEx 1.3?
thanks
Thanks orelsi for your detailed explanations ... it is really appreciated
A couple of googles later and I've got the Phonex 1.3.5 with which I am very happy now! Loyjwe ... if you are googling it, be sure to get the one for WM6.
@orelsi you mentioned a couple of programs such as Voice Call, Phone Tray Free, Ascendis Caller ID, Audio Caller ID. Do these work with windows mobile? I searched, but I go the general feeling that they were all for the regular windows.
As regards "black" ... yeah I guess I got myself the 10 points ... anyways, I'm a person that loves the colour blue and feel uncomfortable with black ... get a kind of "black is unlucky" feel! I'm certain I saw a link somewhere where I can set backgrounds everywhere to a picture I like ... guess I'll search for it!
@Shadowdh ... thank you for the OPTXperiabeta02.cab suggestion. Just got hold of it and will see if I'm happy with it
Generally .. a nice start! I guess I'll have more queries as I go along .., guess I really have to get used to WinMo
Thanks

I have tested many apps and I find that PhoneEx is the best for me personally. Remember that it messes with your 3G video calling though. I hope they fix that in future versions.

No problemo. Feel free to ask , that's what I did hehe...
You can change the backgrounds in the menus of WinMo (the general theme), but I don't think you can change the colours of diff programs. That is what you wanted right?
I'm sorry abut the apps. I said that I never tested any of them. I just googled them . I asked around a little bit and here is what I got .
Try these:
Mobile Speak - (this one is for blind people, but maybe it can be set to say only callers' names and nothing else)
MS Voice Commander has such an option.
HollerID

Seriously, if u hate the tiny fonts and un-user friendly UI on the X1, read up and flash a custom ROM.
Like "dumbphones", the ROM/firmware in WinMo phones can be upgraded. The biggest advantage / benefit of WinMo over any of the other "smartphone" OS's around is that there are loads of ppl who are willing to setup and build customised firmwares so u get the benefits and features of other (HTC!) phones....
Read up on "HardSPL" in the Custom ROMs section and give it a go - if u do it right there's no way u'll brick your phone and it'll come out the otherside like a brand new (completely different + better!) phone...

Hi mate... sorry for the seemingly terse post above, was studying for exams and so was trying to be quick...
Yes we are indeed mate... I did not have to turn it down due to rubbish quality rather it was very very loud... like another poster mentioned I tend to use earphones for listening to podcasts (rather than music) and when I play video its usually pretty decent if through the speakers... sure its not dolby etc but hey its such a little bitty speaker...
This appears to be a problem for some people but not others. I cannot find a definite fix on the posts I have read, hoping someone has found a working solution, so started a thread for just this issue.
I have just installed Dutty's R10 WM6.5 ROM on my Touch HD, and only have that and S2U2 version 2.04 installed on top, and whenever I get an incoming call when the screen is locked, the call comes through fine, caller ID and all but I cannot answer it. WHen I go to slide to answer, the S2U2 app and the dialers own slide screen is fighting for priority. I seem to be able to answer on occasion if I repeatedly tap the answer hardware key, but this doesn't always work.
I have tried swapping the settings around, and disabling the S2A, but then the other green and red keys appear and still cannot answer. Also tried the suggestion of adding S2U2 to the boitouch exemptions list in the registry with no success.
Anyone had the same issues and fixed or knows of a patch or workaround?

Same here. I may have found a workaround.
Just disable Caller ID on S2U2 and let the 6.5 handle incoming calls with Caller ID.
I tested, seem to work fine for me. You should try it and feedback here.
Yes, disabling the Caller ID from within S2U" worked, fantastic!!!
Does anyone know why the Caller ID now doesn't work using Duttys R10 and S2U2? Previous ROMs (think they were all WM6.1 though) have worked..

Probably just the updated WM base used. These OEM's keep moving and it's prbably hard for AC to keep up with S2U2.
glad you found a fix....
I was in a similar boat... I have a T8285 for use of 3g in US, but I cant answer incoming calls when i leave the phone with 3g on and locked when the call is received. just passes the call to be missed, all the while i keep sliding the bar to answer. the hotfix from htc made it worse... just made the dialer screen all screwy.
I posted the problem in both miri and dutty threads that are of which i use, but neither are the actual culprit.
sooo I tried S2U2 and disabled caller id, as suggested in this thread, but this didnt fix it. after searching for weeks, i've been stuck leaving my phone on edge.
sorry for the sob story. i envy that you fixed something and i haven't lol.

A number of HTC hotfixes had similar affect with my phone, i.e. made dialer all screwed up. I generally don't use them as they get implemented into the latest roms anyhow.
Which rom are you using at present? Have you tried posting your query into the S2U2 thread. Your most likely going to get more accurate response from someone who uses that software

S2u2 is new to me, so I haven't had the chance; I'll check that dedicated thread shortly.
Currently I use miri WM 6.5 23009. I've posted in that rom development thread and read it almost thoroughly (1K+ pages!).
If you turn on "windows dialer" instead "slide to answer" everything works fine even with "caller ID-> ON".The only thing with windows dialer you can't see the call history in dialer but if you use call history button the history shows fine.
I'm using duttys6.5 r9 turbo
Solved.
Hello
With new S2U2 version 2.12 is solved. Even with htc dialer, even with Caller ID, etc.
I had the same problem with Rom 6.5. But now is ok.

Title says it all...
What I'm looking for is to be able to control my music while the phone is locked. I am running the last and greatest version of enrgy's rom series. The perticular build that i am using doesnt let me control the volume while the screen is off. But does let me control it when the phone is locked... wierd... but i am loving the rom (if you havnt i recomend you give it a whirl) I have search but the only thing i found is to use s2p with s2u2. I much rather use the windows lock screen, enrgy add a feture to let you use 1 out of 3 lock screens hd mini which im curently using 6.5 and the default lock screen. For some reason i cant not stand s2p (personal preff no offense to the developer) thanks to any1 in advance that can help me with this. I hope this was posted in the right section... if not can some point me to the right place.
you have no idea how bad i want that, it would be so useful! when im at the gym i constantly have to unlock my phone and enter my password because my screen locks to change my music. a look screen with music control would be unreal
This would be great to have. If I remember correctly, before I flashed my rom, my stock Tilt 2 rom used to be able to do it. Hold down the volume buttons to change songs and press down buttons for volume.

The whole point of a lock screen is to lock down the device. You can change the device to NOT lock the buttons when the device is locked, and there are NRG settings that will affect the device when locked. But basically I think you would have to map some of the hardware keys - I believe that ATT has a PTT button, for example - to do a particular function.
Well hopefully this will help.
I picked up a Motorola Bluetooth Headphones in January and using the stock rom I was able to lock the phone and use the headphone controls to change the music and volume with no problems. I can also pause the songs with the controls and come back to the music anytime.
I just moved to the EnergyRom and it still works. I'm only having one issue all the sound comes through the headphones now.
I will say there is one other issue, minor for me, every once and a while the sound will change to a mono'ish, tinny sound, then come right back to stereo. When you hear people complaining about the Bluetooth Headphones this is what they are talking about. It really has never bugged me that much, but it might bother you.
I picked up this model - Motorola HT820. Just in case you are wondering.

That is EXACTLY where I've been searching for a long time. Just like on my SE K800i. Volume button hold = skip songs and normal press volume!
Could this still be found/edited in the registry manually maybe?

I don't quite remember if I installed a cab for it or if the stock rom allowed it, I wish i could remember because I miss it a lot. The only thing I can do now, when the phone is locked, is control the volume. At least it's something...
in the new version of CHT this is comming
Hmm, CHT is not as stable on AthineOS as I hoped. That ROM is nearly clean and CHT brings some bugs with it, so I'd like to find the fix separated from CHT...
Does anyone of you also have a problem with the player when you turn of the screen? (press power button) On my TP2 it doesn't play the next song, but starts to create a cracking noise, almost silent. Also when I turn off the screen the music goes silent halfway the first song I play. I have to skip a bit back/forward and it'll keep playing like it should after that. I know there's some fix like: "Keep music playing while screen is off", but that just won't fix it. But just locking my phone through the Start Menu and letting the screen go black works :S.
Dude, you should try S2U2, is a lock app that looks like the iPhone... But the better thing is that the developer, also make S2P a player that can be used while the lock (S2U2) is active...
I would give Tarkim's keyboard controller a try.

Hi Tiemen_S,
which rom do you have, windows build, manila version and so on. Because i don't have problems like that.
These are not problems with CHT, that's your rom so as said in the threads. I have tested around 20 roms and the most bring up problems. The only one that was running was the latest original dutch rom for me.
So do your tests once again please, with an original one before you say it is CHT. Because that is not the case.

I don't blame CHT or anything, I'm just very satisfied with AthineOS without it. It's like the cleanest ROM out there, with a not too plastic/shiny/glossy theme. I don't know exactly where CHT can't combine with AthineOS (code-wise), but after the installation some bugs appeared. And after reflashing without CHT everything was fine again. It were no SOD's, but glitches and switches.
And of course it's superb the fix will be integrated in CHT, but not everyone uses it and a seperate fix would be a better solution for them!
