Are there cabs that let your contact list appear like the Iphone contact list? I've always liked the way that looked, to be honest. Also, the same graphic as the SMS threads, too.
Thanks!
For Contactlist take a look at www.pocketcm.com

What about good SMS replacements? Preferably one that integrates well with Sense? The WM default SMS program is incredibly slow and is pretty ugly in the conversation view. Vito SMS-Chat is decent but doesn't integrate with Sense and does not run in WVGA (everything is upscaled, looks pretty bad)
How about look for icontacts?

Hi all,
On my previous device, a Glofiish M700, incoming call window was skinned by Eten, not really beautiful skin but better than MS one.
I've just bought an HTC Cruise and I don't know how I can skin this incoming form. If you can help me, you're welcome
Thnks for all
Nobody has an idea ? I ve searched into forum but no response
I think there is only solution use any SW for contacts with full screen caller function like Photo Contacts Pro or Inesoft Address Book...
Yes but i don't want a photo or a full screen app, I just want a popup like MS one but a skinnable one The ETEN one works great, just intalling an apps, I can't imagine there is no tweak to cahnge this ...
was reading an article over at coolsmartphone.com - http://coolsmartphone.com/news4008.html
The U.I looks really cool and was wondering if there was a way to get it for the Touch Dual? Cheers!
I believe that's a question for the Development board, not this one. I think I've seen something about that there ..
looks nice, shame it still links to the CRAPPY looking windows mobile apps, i wish someone would completely revamp the entire shell of windows mobile

Thanks!
Yeah! I also really long for something that would replace the ugly-ass WM apps, such as SMS/Email, Calendar, etc.. So if anyone find anything, please let me know
I had this working on my mine, but shifted to UL which is pretty awesome
same here ultimate launcher is brilliant. ive installed vito sms-chat and vito fun contacts too so its rare i see the hideous wm shell now

vito sms chat, how is it for you? I liked it but it created a new SMSfolder which I didnt like and SMS notifications wouldnt work anymore. On vito Quick contact, can you still pop out the software touch keypad? I mean I know we have the hardware slide out keypad but sometimes I like just using the touch screen.
sms-chat is fantastic. although you dont recieve the normal text alerts you should still hear your sms tone and a little semi-transparent window pops up in the centre of the screen with the sms info. In my opinion it is a lot better than the normal wm sms and even better still than the threaded sms in wm6.1.
Fun contacts works in such a way that you dont need to use the keyboard unless you are editing contact info and ive just confirmed for you that you can use the software keyboard as well as the hardware keyboard for this.
hope this clears things up for you
Will try to give vito SMS chat another trial. Thanks!
Try lord smiff threaded sms. I love it.
Hi all,
Thought I'd share this with all the X1 fans!
Firstly I am not affiliated to Inesoft in any way.
I tested Inesoft software for the Xperia X1:
http://www.inesoft.com/eng/index.php?in=phone.html
Works beautifully on landscape and portrait. Also replace the "Phone" software. I've been looking for a great Phone app for years, and I must admit that this is really brilliant!
Try it out!
Kind regards,

Definitely is... i have been using since a while now and performance is superb!
+1 for the Inesoft Phone 4 It's fantastic, worth the money!
I tried different full screen caller id softwares for the X1 like Photocontacts, S2U2, etc but Inesoft is the fastest and feature richest so far. Ringtone sound level is fluctuating but I think this will be fixed in the future (or is this not Inesoft's fault?).
What is Inesoft Phone doing better than Photocontacts? Whats the caller ID photoresolution for Inesoft Phone?
Haven't tried Photocontacts, so can't say about that... but Inesoft is better than anything else that i have tried. Most of them are too slow or buggy to use while others don't look good or have little to offer.
Looking at the screenshots of Photocontacts... i have to say that Inesoft is a winner of it as well - by looks alone.

Nope... no problems at my end. What version are you using? the latest release (4.4) resolves a couple of bugs/issues with the software.

Photocontacts is mostly for caller id and imho with a very standard and poor interface. Inesoft's GUI is a lot nicer (support real skins too) and it can handle (edit) contacts, has favorites view, nice dialer with customizable T9 search (v4.4) that searches in all name field of the contact details, nice call history with sms preview, phone profiles, customizable ringtones per contact or category and so on. Read the features on their page and try it
After reading some of these recommendations I think I will try Inesoft, but I gather its not free.
The best of the free iv come across so far is PocketCM 0.27 with the Modiefied Black Diamond II skin, which was modified for the Touch HD, fanstatic smooth scroll, fits in well with Touch 3D.

Most of this photo contacts does too. If it has high resolution caller photos it would try it though..
Some people said Inesoft phone cannot work together with spb mobile shell.
Is it true ? has anyone installed both softwares in X1?
hey i downloaded the trial for inesoft and i have a few questions for you full version people.
When i hit the call button the inesoft dialpad appears with my last call. i start dialing and when i actually hit the call button to make the call the default windows dialpad replaces the inesoft one. is that how the full version is?
Also, when i hit the call button to check voicemail the inesoft dialpad shows up as expected, but as i press and hold 1 there is no further action. how do you guys check your voicemail with the inesoft full version?

Yes that's how it's supposed to be. Inesoft are supposed to be adding there own dialpad in the next release. The problem they are having at the moment (so they say on their forum) is the 3G video calls. So we'll have to wait and see...
Not sure about the voicemail issue, not had a voicemail since I had it installed to try!
Inesoft with Spb Shell
I know someone asked before whether the Inesoft Contacts buggers up Spb Shell... I can say that it does from experience... I did like the Inesoft setup but it only worked once i had called using the spb shell... then it just stayed after i had finished....
does anyone know of a work around for this? or is there a better software round that will work with spb shell ... the contacts there is good just the caller id is rubbish (as its the standard one for X1)
thanks...
Finger Friendly Friend
I personally prefer FFF. Fastest way to find yr contact.
Work better then yota or phonex
Contact Manager | February 4, 2009 Pocket PC
Beta Released
Built on the experience and success of Resco File Explorer, developers at Resco decided to create an application which makes managing contacts a quick, efficient and pleasant experience.
Resco would like to announce that the new application will contain the following features:
Touch-optimized interface
Easy navigation
Chat-like ordering of text messages
Letter navigation
Favorites
Quick search using keypad
Direct calls
History of calls
Easy assigning of pictures to contacts
Managing contacts in groups
Today plugin – quick access to all your commonly used phone functions
..and many more
http://resco.net/downloads/pocketpc/contactmanager/en/RContactMan_beta.exe
This looks very nice.
The only problem i see and for me it's the overruling off the keypad.
Thanx.
Looks Good and works fine... But there is just English Letters to search Contacts...
it's the first beta release guys ...upgrades will come soon, and specially also because it is nearly the Mobile World Congress
For a first release I am very impressed.
It definitely outdoes Yota contacts and any other contact program.
Not to mention it actually includes it's own shortcuts to the various tabs!!! Definitely a HUGE plus for me!
Maybe works betters, but is awesome ugly xD
Yota looks better

Not yet possible, but I posted a request on their forum for this, and other features. They say they will work on it.
Anyone interested should go to their forum and voice your support for adding these features. Resco seems to be listening.
Looks veeeery equal to PocketCM, which is my favorite app for more than a year.
Better donate therefore, as to buy such an obvious clone......
Just my 2cents

thanks! you saved me from deinstalling! the phone-app is now back to the htc-standard but thats not a real problem...
really nice contact manager and much faster as all other alternatives.
this is a good one!
Hi
Is it possible (or been explored) to have the TF3D from the HD etc on our polaris without the 3D aspect. I like the look of the tabs and there shortcuts but don't want the 3D driver problems.
Cheers
TF3D without the 3D is well....TF2D...lol
All the latest roms have it, it isnt exactly the same as TF3D, the "people" tab is different and we dont have a stocks tab but its as close as we are going to get.
I think should be a nice idea to have the slide of the picture tabs like the one in footprint. the same animation could be made on contacts (but I preferr the current version)
cheers
Its all the little shortcuts on the contacts tabs etc, and the calender tab that interest me, the flippy bits not so much. Basically moving away from anything to do with the bog standard WM appications that are touch unfriendly (i know third party software is out there

Have you looked at Throttle Launcher? Works fine and has many skins. Might be worth checking out?
ThrottleLaucnher is very slow on my Polaris
Not on yours?

Only used it for a while and not for some time - went back to Manilla 2D cos I like it better. Another one you might want to look at is PointUI. Now I was playing with that just the other day and that's got some kinda cool elements in it and not slow at all.
I guess there's no perfect solution, except the one that suits you best.
Yes, I'm currently under PointUi Home2 and I like it. My question was for information only ^^
