I grew tired of trying new ROM every other day. I want to try if a stock ROM will be good enough for me. I do not need Manila - I replace it with SPB MS. The stock dialer does not support landscape. I use the phone in my car in landscape (mostly navigation), when someone calls dialed switches the device to portrait and it stays portrait. If I use MS dialer, everything is fine, but MS dialer cannot change the in-call volume.
Is there a CAB that can deliver landscape capable HTC dialer? Only the dialer nothing else needed. Thanks for help.
Hi!
I'm using my Blackstone in the car too, and I'd like exactly the same thing what you want.
I found any dialer cabs from rhodium. As I reed rhodium has the same dialer as Blackstone but is able to rotate for landscape. But I installed all this cabs and finally I have always the original standard skin not that what I saw on the preview by rhodium.
I don't know why?
Anybody know the answer?

A dialer cab what I tried is the following:

And I'm using the original HD ROM with manila 1.3

Hello all,
I did some searching and haven't really been able to find an answer so far. I am using the eten skin with smartdialer with the black glass blue skin. The problem is that all of the buttons have a gray shadow behind them. What's even more funny is the "History" button has a shadow behind it that says "Call History" and they don't seem to match up at all. Overall, none of the buttons are aligned correctly. Does anyone else have this problem and have you found a workaround?
I have attached a screen shot of what I'm talking about
First and foremost the Eten dialer program doesn't seem to work properly with smartdialing. It takes up too much space in the upper portion and causes the replacement of some of graphics like you are seeing.
Second you are using a skin pack on top using the Eten dialer. The Eten dialer replaces almost all of the phone program graphics, then you have replaced them again. The Eten dialer does not put the graphics in the same place as the original dialer program, so things aren't aligned properly with the text.
There's a (hacked?) version of Eten that supports smart dialing.
Unfortunately I'm also suffering from the same problem. WarlockLord, were you using any of paulyA's skins before this? The text looks like "legacy text" from his classic skins. I was using the original Eten dialer with the famous orange skin before this.
I'll post again if I find a solution to this...
I use the E-Ten dialer with smartdialing for over a week now on my Wizard.
(Pauly A) Said that it has some bugs and that it is a beta version, I didn't find or noticed ANY bugs!
It works just perfect on my device (with the standard blue skin).
Screw the original dialer.....E-Ten dialer for life
The problem with th e*Beta* version of the Eten dialler is that, even though the original (non-SD) version used 'drawn' buttons, the new version uses a comination of the two, the number pad is 'drawn' while the in-call pad seems to require system fonts, the PaulyA versions of skins have drawn buttons in both version... there are versions of the Eten Dialler with SD support that use drawn or system buttons here, and also a landscape skin, however I find either one has the same issues on the in-call pad!! Others seem to have had success though...
Has anyone had a problem with the Eten dialer and SPB Pocket Plus?
Every time I have them both installed, once I reboot, my device gets hung on the Windows boot screen. Any ideas?
yes I have the same problem with spb pocket plus!
First I installed pocket plus 3.0 and afterwards the E-Ten Dialer, then I tried it the other way round: first Eten Dialer, then SPB Pocket Plus...same result:
It hangs up in the windows mobile startup-screen.
Hi, I am the new owner of a touch hd and wanted to know what my best option was for landscape texting and if their was any auto-rotate landscape texting available? even if their is no auto-rotate, can anyone direct me to my best option for landscape texting? thanks

Hi !! 24 hours HD owner and I adore it. Actually I found a cool application called Gyrator2 , it switches to landscape and rotate screen depending on how you hold the device ( like iphone ). Check it : http://gyrator.brins0.net/?page=downloads
you can try the new GSen from the Touch Pro 2: http://www.fuzemobility.com/gsen-now-enabled-in-more-apps/
you can add individual applications to the list as well but it works on most applications without any need to add more: http://www.mobilitydigest.com/gain-more-control-of-the-gsen-apps-tp2-edition/
I've used this on a Touch HD and it works
I have tried gsen.
At the moment im am using Dutty's 2.1 Extreme ROM and far as i know manilla should work in lanscape too.
Rotating Manilla seems to be disabled in gsen and i read that i need to add some registry keys in HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\.
I dont really understand how that keys need to look like to make it work. Does anyone else had success?
Edit:
Just found out how it works.
You could also try ChangeScreen...
You could also try ChangeScreen which is my personal favourite as I find it easier to configure than Gyrator:

Is there a large dialpad similar to idialer but with smart dial (so spelling out a contacts name will bring up their number) ? or even a way to enable smart dial?
iDialer here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2694308
or something similar to the minimal dialer here:
http://handheld.softpedia.com/get/Skins/Minimal-Dialer-64089.shtml
but doesnt use the diamond phone canvas as a base (because of the issues with wm6.5 & the just stupid amount of ram the diamond phone canvas uses)
currently i'm using the gorgeous Ryon dialer skin here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=508920
but the buttons are to small
Anyone know what dialer this is and where to get it?

Seems to be what i'm looking for
looks like an old version of inesoft try here
http://www.inesoft.com/eng/index.php?in=phone.html
You can try Yota Dialer (search here), except it's a little buggy for me.
thanks for replies guys but Innosoft doesn't seem to have smart dial otherwise was good and ya yota is just a bit too buggy (not to mention it takes up as much space as the regular htc dialer)
anyone else have suggestions on a large button dialer with smart dial?

There isn't one really.
I've been looking for the same solution for a while.
Put a request for a developer here instead. I'll put my hand in for the graphics.
iconsoft phonex has smart dialing and a large keypad, I think the latest version uses a lot less ram too a simple dialpad similar to that would be great to replace the small wm dialer
Maybe o3touch brings what you want? See http://www.o3touch.com/
phonex is not bad but when receiving it interferes with the windows 6.5 lock screen, otherwise it was actually pretty good, had smart dial n everything
o3touch seems to be a keyboard not a dialer so cant really comment on that
i came across a really good 1 but its incomplete, its here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=437296
its a VGA touchflo 2d dialer, the dial screen is perfect with smart dial and good buttons, as well the incall screen works great.
forgot to test out how it works with an incoming call and the wm6.5 lock screen (though it probably wont work that well)
but the big killer for this is that its not finished and in wm 6.5 when using smart dial the contacts all wash into eachother and become unreadable (the names will just constantly overlap eachother so its unreadable)
anyone know of a dialer similar to this but JUST the dialer, the incall screen is nice but not a big deal but any kind of custom incoming call screen will just screw with the wm6.5 lock screen
i've seen a boat loads of dialers for qvga (minimal dialer being really good) so their has to be something similar for VGA, or if their are any developers who could make 1 for 6.5
its the same dialer as 6.1 but because the lock screen already has slide to answer built in and an incall screen built in we only need to skin the actually dialer itself
and of course if anyone has a dialer they really like please share
Hi Guys
I am using Iconsoft Phonex as my dialer. Its a super dialer. My problem is it doesnot integrate with the People tab provided on Touch flo. Clicking on the call button in the people tab doesnot initiate a call. It appears to become a dummy if i have Phonex running. I think it is because TF3D doesnt know it needs to use Phonex dialer to initiate the call. I am sure there is some registry key i need to modify to get this working.
Anybody aware of this? Any known fixes available? This would make my phone perfect!
I am on Dutty 3.3 XT ROM.
cheers

I'm usingthe stock ROM, PhonEx 1.4 and what you're describing works OK for me. Trying my home landline from TF3D/ People dials home and goes straight into the PhonEx dialling screen. I know that this is no consolation to you at the moment but I would try a complete uninstall and reinstall. HTH.
micken thanks for the reply. I just did an uninstall, reset, reinstall reset... still the same problem... maybe its the rom version i use? i never tried it with the stock rom i had.
its such an annoyance!
One thing.. when you disable phonex, do you get the standard wm dialer working in all its glory? For me the dialer comes back but i cant see the call list in the dialer.. its all blank, though i can dial and make calls and even scroll down the blank list!
i have same problem
I know the default Windows Mobile dialer skin is limited but even so I think I am missing something with it. If I open the phone and then begin typing a name the Leo HTC Phone Canvas automatically searches for a name in the contacts list. With the Windows Mobile default dialer this doesn't seem to happen and I can't believe this is a feature MS would have left out?
I have a pretty stock Leo ROM but have changed the Windows Mobile build and added in a few applications. I have been toying around with 5.2.23152 & 5.2.23569 and prefer 5.2.23152 but have the Phone Canvas issues (no Caller ID, Call History etc). I have tried all the 'fixes' posted (replace cprog.exe etc) however none of them fully fix the problems so I thought why not use the default Windows Mobile Dialer Skin? I have set the [HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin\Enabled] to 0 and have the default skin, however the dial parser (?) doesn't work?
Any pointers?
Andy
Fixed it by not including the Phone Canvas in the build. Bit odd as I thought disabling the Phone Skin would have worked, ahh well...
The skin got to disabled, and some reg needs to be deleted in order for WM dialer to work, if htc dialer is cooked in i think. I am going to search for that thread, will share when I find it.

Yep, the HTC Dialer (Phone Canvas Enhancement 2G v4.2.62520173131.0) would normally be cooked in. Due to the various compatibility issues with this Dialer Canvas and WM 6.5.x I wanted to 'switch it off' and use the default MS Dialer Canvas, but leave the HTC one there so I could switch it on if need be. It looks like I can't just switch it off and need to remove it from the ROM build.
Ho hum, I rebuilt the ROM but excluded the HTC Phone Canvas and the MS one now works as I expected. Although the MS Phone Canvas looks less pretty than the HTC one, it has about the same functionality..... I think I can live with it to get a better WM build.
Does anyone know if the default Windows Mobile Phone Canvas works with the Light Sensor? i.e. can it be configured to turn the screen off when held to your ear? It isn't by default and I have tweaked the various settings via Schaps Advanced config tool but can't get it to work?
