HTC dialer - Touch HD General

Hi,
I downloaded the HTC dialer, and it seems to have changed the settings, made the dialer screen smaller, and then when i make a call, the writing is small and in the wrong place, meaning I struggle to phone any numbers that are not in my phone book.
Does anyone have the original version from the HTC touch HD, or know how I can remove the dialer, as it is not in the 'Remove Program' menu.
Thanks.
Dankzii.
EDIT: Will update with pictures soon.
Cheers.

Have just installed the Blackdialer, and solved the problem.
Thanks.

Dialer skins... redial not working?

Hi all,
What am I missing here? I've used three different dialer skins (right now I'm using a version of the big-button one), and the "redial" button on the bottom right of the screen doesn't seem to work.
I'm talking about the button that (in most versions that I've seen) has the phone icon with an arrow pointing away from the phone, to the right.
When I bring up the dialer, it says "Last call: xxx-xxxx", so I'd like a way to dial that number again with one touch instead of having to go to the call history, which is what I have to do now.
Any ideas? What am I doing wrong?
Thanks.
you need to be more specific about which dialer you are using, there are many. Have you tried just hitting the "talk" hardbutton, after pulling up the dialpad. It redials the last number on the screen for me.
If it doesn't then you should try Paul Hammon's big button dialpad for mogul over at pdaphonehome.com. every stock functions are retained, including smartdial and redial.
i tried multiple skins and ran into that same issue.. literally 20 skins easily.. i tried paul's skin and all my questions were answered.. the skin works flawless and I personally love it.

I am running into the same issue with tons and tons of different skins...such as the standard iphone, retail iphone, eten, marshall, and lots of other ones..... REDIAL just DOES NOT WORK!! I am sure everyone is experiencing these issues.
have we figured out any solutions yet?
The first reply was correct -- all of these other skins are based on a non-sprint dialer, so some things don't work (like redial, but more importantly, 911!)
Use Paul Hammons Touch dialer and it'll be fine. It's just as skinnable, with the only down-side that I've seen thusfar that the contact picture is slightly smaller.
I have a dialer skin that everything works correctly, including # codes. Search for Mogul Big Button Dialer. It is an improved version of the Kaiser skin.

This is the same Paul Hammons dialer that Skatsev spoke of in the previous reply. The original thread is on pdaphonehome.com
http://pdaphonehome.com/forums/ppc-6800-xv6800/91652-sprint-native-big-button-dialer-theme-here.html
for those of you who want a different dialer skin other than the default one on the phone, and you don't like paul's version, there is another skin that i found on xda this morning that works perfectly on the mogul
it allows the use of the codes as well (example ##778, etc...) and doesn't mess up your emergency 911 dialing either.
I didn't create this. i just dl it this morning on my way out the door and ran it on my phone while at work today. personally, i love it.
Give it a shot.

This was discussed in numerous posts above. Please read through this thread again.

like i said, if you want ALL functions of the stock dialer (redial, 911, ##functions, Smartdial, etc., etc.), you have only two options that i know of: Paul Hammon's dialer from pdaphonehome.com or the stock dialer itself.
If you want to prove me wrong, then please do extensive testing before posting it.
If you look through the thread on pdaphonehome. com concerning Paul's dialer, you will realize within that dialer, there are other "skins" available to make it look like the Touch dialer, etc. There are also instructions on how to skin the dialer yourself to some extent. I knew nothing about skinning, and I was able to create my own skins with that dialer including using vista-type 3d icons and iphone icons. Skinning options are limited on that dialer, but they are there.

you are completely right. no one is reading the previous post's within this thread to see why it is not working.. only so many times you can repeat yourself..

HTC Dialer Issue

Hi, I appear to have a small issue/bug with the Default HTC dialer on the Blackstone, when on the main dialer screen, the call history button (bottom left) appears to have an overlay of text that says "Call Hi...". This covers the whole button, and looks completely out of place, it is like a label/tag that shouldn't be there. I am unsure whether or not this is by default (as I can't remember if it was always like this) but it does not look correct nor does it fit the slick HTC style! I did install the HTC "phone slider" hotfix, but uninstalled as soon as I read that there were issues with it i uninstalled it.
Apologies if this has been posted previously, i searched but couldn't find anything remotely similar!
Thanks in advance for any help!
It's the slider fix that you installed. Uninstalling it does not remove the hotfix. There is a thread labelled something like anti-slide fix that has a cab that will remove it properly.
I have installed and this has worked a treat, thank you very much for the information...
what would i do with this site??

[Q] Missing Dialer details

Have been modifying TP2 with many registry changes etc. Running WM6.1
However, seem to have "lost" part of the standard dialer and have trolled through the forums trying to find what files and .dll are being used by the DEFAULT dialler.
The HTC dialler works fine but I do not like it, so when swapping back to the default dialer, the buttons and keys are there, but where the list of previous numbers should be is just a grey area with no entries. Selecting any area WILL bring up the call record as normal.
I must have deleted\edited\corrupted something..........but even looking through back-ups, can not find a clue!
Otherwise, any clues on JUST a plug in dialer (everything I find seems to be a full package with today and other stuff) - I like the dialler on the TYTN2 - both for size and colour and am trying to replicate this if possible.
Colours and size are good for tapping when driving as here in UK must NOT hold a phone as illegal!
ANy clues on files/which registry keys hold the colours for the HTC keypad etc. would be useful as doesn't seem to be HKLM\security\phone\skin
As loads of views and no answers, transferring to general questions

Sorry, unless I mis-understand, the reason it can't find it is you deleted it.
Until someone can supply the HTC version, so you have something to use try downloading Dialer One from the market.
Hmm i tought by deleting it my system would go back to the stock dialer. But the problem is, currently i have NO dialer ^^
Did you download Dialer One? Not what you want I know but at least you'll have one.
Yes, but the Problem is: The reason why I wanted to change the Dialer was, because i wanted to change the screen when my phone is locked and someone calls me. You know what I mean?
And now, having the htc dialer uninstalled, the lock screen is still the same oO
I don't think the lock screen (including buttons / style / layout) is related to the Dialer, I believe (could be wrong) that it's ROM specific.
The dialer is rom specific. Iam using dialer one on my DHD with Revolution HD 4 ß4 and there is no difference in my lockscreen
Hmm I jsut want to have the HTC DIaler and the Stock Android Caller Lockscreen.
So when i receive a call, when my screen is off, i dont want to slide down like htc sense, i want to slide horizontally like the no-Sense lockscreen.
How do I achieve that?
You must reflash your device.
I dont think you understand what I want

[Q] Change the dialer skin

Hi,
I've got a HTC Touch HD, with a french ROM : Maw_test3L FRE, without Manilla.
It's a 6.5.3 Windows, buil 28006)
I'va tried to change my dialer skin, with some others dowloaded here (RR3 BW, IPC, Dusk), but nothing to do, it's always the same, I can't change my dialer.
I've tried to change the 1.8 option with HD Tweak (HD or Windows Mobile Standart), but nothing.
I think it's the WM standart (see the picture), and it's really no good, the buttons are too small and the letters are too small for my eyes.
Perhaps is it the ROM ?
Could someone help me ?
Thanks
Its not a standard dialer, it is themed, please make sure the dialer is for your phone because when you install and nothing happens, then it must be that the dialer is for something else and what you have is different.
Please check the thread of the skin to make sure your device is supported or better, look for skins in respective device forum.
