Just upgraded to Sprint 6.1 Rom on my vogue and lost my dialer, anyone know where I can find it (CAB) again? I really dont like the new one since there is no "talk" button. Any help would be great. Thanks.
id be willing to bet google knows where that dialer is
Been looking for awhile now, maybe Google doesnt like me.... Thanks though.
Use the ppcgeeks kitchen, make yourself your own rom, unlock your device, put the vogue dialer in that ROM, flash and feel accomplished
ppckitchen.org
I'm not sure what is the name of the dialer though but it's included in open touch v4 rom for xda herald:

Frankly I really hated this dialer. The number buttons are small and very unresponsive. The color is not as pleasing. I recommend the iphone dialer of the newer minimal dialer.
that is actually the wm6 default dialer. I remember seeing a cab of it somewhere around here (for the wm5 folks)
This may be the cab you are looking for. From WM5.
I had to scout around and find it when i upgraded to WM6.
Cheers.
make the following edit in your registry and soft reset.

Hello everyone.
Recently i updated my HTC Touch Diamond to WM 6.5. Everything installed just the way it supposed to have. But i got 2 issues which makes me wanna come back to my old rom.
Previously i got old 1.93.479.3 stock rom but i needed to install it because i bough my phone from guy in sweden (im from poland) and needed rom in my native language.
To update i used Windows Revolution Manila 2.1 Edition 1.1A (23017) by mike1986 which had both windows mobile 6.5 and TF3d 2.1. And generally i love my new rom. Exception is 2 things:
1. What i cannot digest is the dialer. I just dont like. It is tachi's dialer with black skin on it. I would like to go back to my stock Diamond dialer (if it possible with the slider).
Dont get me wrong. Im not the type of guy who writes complain and wait for ready answer. I tried to make it on my own for 2 days now. I managed to change tachi's skin to white and it looked much better but to look great i need old white one. I found 3 cabs with that but none of that actually made things better (installed all: Diamond_PhoneCanvas_full_Eng_without_battery_icon.cab , xmatrix_PhoneDialerBlackS2A.cab. and Diamond_PhoneCanvas_Slide.cab - dont remember from where on xda i get it - sorry).
When i install any of them, tachi is gone but instead getting my stock diamond dialer i get wm dialer but without any skin - jsut black and white. When i choose to not use HTC dialer i get wm dialer again but with skin on it.
Dunno what im doing wrong but it is possibility that this is it - im a lumberjack not a telephone soft expert.
2. Dont know why, dont know how but in my new soft keyboard choosing is limited to only 1 position. I cant change keyboard layout in fly. Instead i need to run some .cab to which shortcut i have in settings area. Can i do something about it? I found already intelwrite for my new windows mobile but sometimes i need to change layout to phone because it is hard holding something (driving wheel or something else).
I wont bother u any more and im just counting that u will find a little time to help me. Thanks in advance.
About a month ago I upgraded from my old trusty and excellent HTC HD to the new HD2.
After a few tweaks, haks and fixes and some downloads, I was extremely happy of my HD , in fact the only real improvement in the HD2 to me seems to be the much faster CPU (which of course is not a little thing)
However there are a couple of major gripes (or just lack of aternative options) on the HD2 that I find particularly unnerving, prominent among which is the excruciatingly bad Kboard.
It's even worse than the one I've got on my HTC Hero which has a far smaller screen.
On the HD I had installed "FingrKboard" which I found simply excellent; is'nt there something similar that would work on the HD2?
Or maybe do you think that the same .cab file that worked on the HD's wm 6.1 will also work on the HD2 wm 6.5?
Second major problem with the HD2 is that I still have'nt been able to find a (good and possibly free) registry editor for it.
I have read about some very interested tweaks for the HD2 in the threads of the forum, but they all require the use of a registry editor, which one would you suggest?
And again: would I be able to install and use one of those I had on the wm 6.1 of my old HD(1) ?
And last (and probably least too): would "Gyrator" ,be installable and working on the HD2 as it did on the HD1?
No eh?
And do you know of another app that would make the screen turn from portrait to landscape with all apps?
Even if you could point to the solution to just one of my conflicts with the HD2 , you would have accomplished your Xmas good deed by making very happy a poor afflicted geek.
This is the way you might earn your place in heaven, you know ?

FingerKeyboard worked on WM6.5 on the HD1 and works on the HD2. I found it to be superior to the standard HTC keyboard.
There is also a cab file that reduces the sensitivity of the screen on the HD2. This is supposed to make typing a bit easier although I have not personally tried it.
For registry editing, I use PHM RegEdit. It's a free program.
I use Resco Explorer and once you've downloaded that (for free), download the registry editor add-in (both cabs on the Resco site)

Resco Explorer will eventuall need a key to fully register the program. I do however second Resco if you can buy it.

The registry editor stays unlocked though. I actually never use the Explorer part but you're right, that gets locked after a few days so you need to purchase it (if you want to).
Try Swype as a keyboard. I found it on this site and haven't looked back! It has an amazing input method and is not as over-sensitive as the native HTC keyboard. Check it out....

I second PHM RegEdit.
Simple, easy to use and free.
Thanx fellas.
I had both PHM regedit and fingerkeyboard because I had downloaded and installed them on my old HD(1) and Samsung Omnia i900 ( of which I got rid long ago) , now I have installed them on the HD2 and they work great.
I wonder which other win 6.1 apps will work on the big screen and win 6.5 of the HD2.
Dutty (one of my heroes) for exemple had to modify Cyberon voice dialer to get it to work on the HD2 because as it was the standard version would'nt play together with the HD2., so not all HD apps would be usable on the HD2.
I wonder how Gyrator would behave in the new environment.
Oh, and thanks very much for the link too, very interesting and useful.
I hope I'll be soon able of being of some help too.
BSB tweaks for screen rotation mate
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=589305
Thanx Carlos, I have already installed the awesome BB Tweaks and now I have also cheked the "show standard windows setting" box, but I still can't find the menu you uploaded with the screen turning option.
Where is it hidden?
Is there any particular option I should enable?
I have enabled nearly all of them anyway but hat option still eludes me.

Run BsB Tweaks and open the menu - Rotation is in there.
Hi there..
Dont mean to flame or anything like that.
But the title of the thread suggests that you arnt happy with the device.
So we start reading your post.
But its all just software features you lack or want to change.
And that does not really imply the hardware exclusive to the HD2.
@ Johncmolineaux
Thank you mate, I looked for it for 2 days, maybe I should wear my glasses more often.
@ Enonoid
I'm sorry if from my title you or anybody else got the impression that I was'nt happy with the HD2: I bloody love it man!
I just wished to find a few apps, progs and tweaks to which I got used with my old HD1 (which I loved too).
I also have an HTC Hero and a Nokia N97 ,which after Nokia changed camera lens, camera cover, GPS chip & software, installed ROM 2.0, optimized memory, and gave me for free one year subscription to the latest OVI maps for Europe, has become a great phone too; but the HD2 is my fav hands down, even though as an OS per se I like Andrid more than WM 6.5 (mainly because of the marketplace and the awsome free apps available).
One must be a brainwashed Apple fanboy not to like like the HD2.
Gyrator works fine on the HD2

Swype is the next generation keyboard, amazing. I am running it on the HTC Touch HD, although it will run much better on a capacitive screen, more sensetive the screen the better it will work.
Yes, Swipe rocks,but after BB tweaks adjusted the screen sensitivity of the standard kwerty, and the FingerKboard, they have become absolutely excellent too.
The only problem is that I can't put any of those in ladscape position.
I have tried to reinstall Gyrator but it does not seem to work on the HD2 it seems made for devices with styluses and resistive screens.
Did anyone find a way to type messages, notes, etc. in landscape?
I was over at the Mega forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=577224 and now wonder if Iolite has a "hidden" G-sensor aswell?
Was trying, he hasn´t a hidden G-sensor.
I thought so too....but it got me doubting because you find a registry entry in the Roms of Billabongstaff.....
Anyway bad luck......
Was found this entry, was changed, restarted - no effects.
I mean, that a lot of entrys in registry are nonsens, but who will clean it ?
Greetings!
Well it was worth the shot, thanks for sharing.
2 years ago I made some 6.1-ROMs for the HTC Wizard. A clean registry and a clean windows-folder will made the ROM fast and stable. I had the fastest german 6.1-ROM for the Wizard. But I haven´t a working german 6.5-kitchen for the Iolite so I can´t cook something. In another forum (a german) I would make a "Joint Venture" - project - cook a ROM together, but it was the shoot in the oven. 24 Downloads of my kitchen - feedback = nothing.
Now my kitchen is cold...
Greetings!
Hello Mirko, don't get discouraged by this experience.....there will be enough fans in this forum for a good Rom.....
But the Rom's need to be in Dutch or English as far as I am concerned and they could even be in WM6.5.3 version.....
By the way nothing but good words about Bruno's Rom.......but I have 2 Touch Cruises at this moment so I can play around a bit.....
mirko.prinz: Actually, I tried to optimize (delete unneeded files and registries) and customize my own ROM (including cursors and graphics) and it took me really lot of time. However it is only WM 6.1 21054 version as I do not like WM 6.5 and it is still not fully completed. I simply need my phone for everyday use and I have no spare time to play with it.

Hi all
I want to port a dialer from the Photon to the Nike or the EzInput from the Rhodium
I was wondering if I can ask from the guru's who port dialers, Sense, etc from 480x800 to 480x640, etc what actually needs to be edited?
I have IDA and Restorator as well as a hex editor. I would like to learn how to go about this and want some help.
I know pcarvalho at one stage was porting the EzInput 2.1 before the MEGA was released - so I know that it is possible, just want to know how.
The main reason for the EzInput is that the Nike has a hardware keypad that doesn't seem to work with any Ezinput other than v1.5 and then there is a 16key version and a 20key version, so the builds are different - just want a more recent one that is QVGA and works with the hardware input also
Reason for the dialer is to correct a few errors in the MEGA dialer (already corrected the incoming call Position - but Call History is an issue) and I believe that V5 Phone Canvas solves this problem - I would also like to look at a more recent 3G dialer, but the only that I can do for that is look at porting one from a different resolution, as there are no recent QVGA ones. Why the Leo never had 3G video dialing is a mystery to me
Is it possible to add Video dialing to a 2G dialer Canvas?
Anyway, I hope someone can assist me to do this, or at the very least point me in the right direction.
Thanks
DT
that is very hard and i dont know how to make it... look at this OEM pkgs i get from LEO to QVGA maybe you can have an idea makin a diference hex edition

Thanks + Que PPC - I have already ported the power/backlight from the Leo - editing the XMLs is good if the package has them.
I also understand what I am asking is not straight forward; otherwise anyone could be doing it. There are however, those in the XDA community that have the knowhow - I don't mind if the help comes via PM or email so that the inevitable thousand questions and comments aren't there - it is though, something I would like to be able to do, if not just for myself, but to also help the XDA community.
The people with QVGA devices would love to get updated components - the MEGA helped that immensely, but they are still crying out for a decent 3G dialler – I would be able to halve my ROM releases if nothing else with that. I for one want to be able to use a newer Ezinput – one that I can get working with the Nike’s hardware keypad. If that means pain stakingly editing every file in a package, then so be it.
Maybe it is as easy as editing a few XML files with the newer packages – I don’t know, if someone wants to help then I welcome the assistance. We all start somewhere and I wouldn't be able to even cook a ROM if 14months ago people in this community didn't lend their helping hand.
Thanks again, appreciate the input.
DT
