After getting bored lately with the dialpad I had on my trinity, I was looking for alternatives. There are lots of nice dialers out there, but they simply won't work with our trinity. So I decided to make a new one...

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Main Features:
- modern look (at least I think so )
- based on phcanrc.dll from original PhoneCanvas_1.50.27317.0
- 3G Videotelephony and Smartdialing working
- works on Trinity, and maybe Hermes (please confirm)
- skin can be changed easily (tutorial soon)
- ext package for cooks (see post #2)
Installation instructions:
Just unzip and install cab on device
Known bugs and troubleshooting:
- some things in landscape are broken
- the dll is sdk signed, you may need sdkcerts.cab
- 3G Videotelephony and Smartdialing have to be in your rom already
- for working menus you also need the proper .mui files of the above
- I might release these extra files as a cab later on
- UPDATE 14.2.10: Added ext package package for cooks with Phone Canvas see post #2
- UPDATE 10.3.10: Added phcanOverbmp.dll, see post #3
Caveat:
Although it has been tested, I'm not responsible if you experience problems installing, running or uninstalling it. If you want to be safe, backup your device first.
Things to come:
- black version of the skin >> done, see attachments
- ext package for cooks >> see post #2
- maybe a new phcanoverbmp.dll >> see post #3
- skinning tutorial >> on user request only!
Users:
Enjoy, and give feedback in this thread
Cooks:
You can use it if you like it, as long as you:
- give credit to me
- link to this thread, so users can report bugs
Thanks:

Tips for cooks
- Attached is the original trinity Phone Canvas_1.50.27317 with all muis I could get hold of: 0404/0407/0409/040C/0816 - you should know which one you need
- There are just the basic dlls included, to make a working dialer you will absolutely need a skin (like the one above). Just make an additional folder PhoneCanvas_skin, and put the registry file from the cab in it, and all other files in a subdirectory named "files". Be careful to cook the skin in after the PhoneCanvas, so that the phcanrc.dll of the skin and not the package is used.
Package content:
Code:
"PhoneCanvas"="1.50.27317.0"
"Smart_Dialing"="2.5.26736.0"
"VideoTelephony"="1.50.27147.0"
- Warning: Most kitchens have a phcanOverbmp.dll with some altered function in it, like improved battery status or whatever. If you want to keep your existing dll, cook it in after this package or just delete phcanOverbmp.dll from it.
- To enable/disable the dialer, you can change:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin]
"Enabled"=dword:00000001
A soft reset is required afterwards.
New phcanOverbmp.dll:
- only 82k filesize
- 10% battery bar
- wm6.5 like battery icons
- in-/outcall graphics from mega
- pin input pad from mega
Installation instructions:
I couldn't do a proper cab, so for now its just a zip file.
damn - very nice!
super gemacht!!!
great!
thank you so much
Awsome job, congrats Icke, it's so good to see that Trinity cooks can unite forces to get pleasant and 100% usable dialers ...
Let the Force be with you
brds,
nAr
simply terrific!
Brilliant!
Love your work icke!
DELETED DOUBLE POST (lol, I love your work so much I apparently hit "submit" twice )
Nice ones. I have another dialer, but the white one is good to have.
Just a little push: I added a new phcanoverbmp also, see post #3.

Hi,
I have a cab file of Wm5torage which is asking about restart or not after installation, the problem is that i put this file in my extended rom, to make it installed after a hard reset.
The probleme is the question of restart or no, it hangs the installation.And I have to reboot it myself.
So i would like to know how to avoid this question by modifying the Cab.
Thanks for your futur answers

You can use MSCEInf (http://preview.pocketpcfreeware.com/en/index.php?soft=1519) to see what is inside a cab. Then you can repackage it yourself.
Cheers
Mark
Actually, it's not that simple in this case.
I was hoping the author of the program might see this post and answer you, but let me give it a shot for now.
The reset is done by the cabs setup.dll (it may have a different name inside the cab). Using MSCEInf markvan mentioned or CE Cab Manager (there is a demo version that will run 15 times) you can remove this dll from the cab. Trouble is it may contain other functionality (like reg settings) needed during the installation so the app won't install properly without it.
Sorry.
MSCEInf and SetupDLL.dll
Yes, i have omitted in the last version published of MSCEInf to extract the setup DLL, but the name of the setup DLL in the cab is always ".999". So, for now you can extract it by Winzip or Cabextract.
If there is no file with this extension, there is not setup DLL.
But in the tab : Generalities, you find the name of the setup DLL if it exists.
Future version of MSCEInf (vesion 1.4) will extract the setup DLL. This new version will also do these things :
- Drag and Drop from the Tab Files to the Explorer.
- Context Menu on Files in the Tab to open it with associated application or with Notepad.
- Use Names Folder for extracting.
- read also _setup.xml and do the same as for traditional INF and shows all things in the cab. It also rebuilds the traditional Inf from the XML.

Hi,
I extracted the dll and used reshack to edit it but i just see 2 messages in

And i don't think that just remove the restart message will solve my prob.
If you have any other idea...

Dll resources have nothing to do with its activities.
The only way to replace it is to know exactly what it does either by asking the author or by viewing the source code (if available).
My advice is this: try installing without the dll. If the app works, then you can dump the dll all together, if not try contacting the program author for help.

Post the cab - i will have a go at modifying it for you - i think its the setup.xml that needs changing.
EDIT managed what you asked (omitted setup.dll and modified setup.xml)- can get rid of the destination dialog as well if you like assuming like me you always install to \program files\wm5torage. Just need to know what version you use.
hi,
thanks for help.I'm using the 1.71 of wm5torage.How to post the file?
bye
herc. 8)
Hi - i use 1.7 - if you want 1.71 you add it as an attachment to your post. It works as you want - do you want no destination dialog as well? I am at work at the moment - will post the modified cab tonight
Modified cab attached - its most up to date version 1.72.
mods are:
1. No setup.dll so no request to restart device (not required anyhow)
2. Installs shortcut to start menu\program files rather than start menu\accessories
3. Installs straight to \program files\wm5torage rather than having a destination dialog.
Many thanks for your help

As stated the application is open source so anyone can contribute to it. If you find any bugs please report here.
Can't install it...need a newer version of .NET Compact Framework...I'll download v2.0 and give it another try.
Great app
Can you please add the functionality of being able to specify a directory and install all of the CABs contained within it?
Code:
public void ProcessCABsDir(string sourcedir)
{
// Install CAB's
try
{
DirectoryInfo dir = new DirectoryInfo(sourcedir);
foreach (FileInfo files in dir.GetFiles("*.CAB"))
{
Process inst = Process.Start(sourcedir + "\\" + files.Name, "");
inst.WaitForExit();
}
}
catch
{
MessageBox.Show(
"Some files were not installed",
"Error:",
MessageBoxButtons.OK,
MessageBoxIcon.Exclamation,
MessageBoxDefaultButton.Button1
);
}
//End of CAB's
}
You could then place this in the ExtROM and get to execute on hardreset.
Happy to work with you on this one.
That is an excellent idea and I'm certainly planning to implement that in the near future!

Sorry, you're gonna have to provide a link, this noob can't find anything in the wiki about a 802.11g router anything for the Hermes, there is ONE link to wifi from the hermes wiki and it talks about what it is... Nothing more.
In the meantime, release HTCustom 1.1...

Good work
Now how about making it part of the ExtROM of a ROM the the app get launched follwoing a hardreset?
The same idea as the autorun.exe HTC provide in all operator devices?
May I know whether this application requires .Net CF 2 to run? Don't wish to install it on my precious main memory..
It does...

I could, but don't most users like to customize when they are ready? Maybe just a popup that explains how it works so they know and can launch it when ready?
Good Works
Why not to integrate into this tweaker, the possibility of closing definitively the programs with the touch OK? It allows among others to use a TyTN with only touches and keyboard. Today, the touch OK reduces them
At the moment I found only another tweaker which makes it (PQzII), but that would be practical to use only one
Hello All,
I updated a few lines in my MortScripts, redownload the ichis.zip file and the new files are in the ichis directory, just overwrite the existing files in "\Program Files\rlToday\ichis\"
I wanted to release my rlToday theme. ALL icons are active and info is displayed. Let me know what you think.

}
To update weather:
a.) Either tap the one of the smaller icons (tomorrow/after tomorrow's forecast) if you are connected to the internet.
b.) Or, tap the big icon (current condition) to update via Google's SMS. once the message is recieved:
- Open the message
- Tap and hold and Select all
- Tap and hold and Copy
Then it will update the Today screen.
The reason I have an SMS option: I don't have a data plan other than when I'm at a WiFi spot. So, its really for me
If any of you get an error message, please post it here and let me know so I can add that icon/weather condition [Un]Fortunately, I live in New Mexico and its always Sunny and Clear, hehe.
AND I'd love feedback. If you use it, modify it, post your screen here!! I'd love to see what you guys come up with too!
Installation:
Inside the attached chis.zip file, you'll find everything you need:
1. Install MortScript 4.1
2. Install rlToday
3. Copy Sys-To-Reg-2.0 directory to \Program Files\
4. Copy cutouts.ttf to \Windows\Fonts\
5. Copy ichis directory to \Program Files\rlToday\
6. Run Sys-to-Reg-Install.mscr and allow it to run at Startup
7. Make ichis the skin in rlToday
8. (OPTIONAL) If you use S2U2 v1.00 or above, set the weather option to UserWeather in S2U2 Settings and copy the contents of the S2U2weather directory to \Program Files\S2U2\gfx\weather\
9. (OPTIONAL) Set the bg-black.bmp as your background with 0% transperancy via the WM Pictures & Videos application
10. (OPTIONAL) If you would like your own background behind the icons, I've included a bg.png file that has the transparency layer preserved and you may place another image behind it of your choice using your favorite image editor (ie. Photoshop) -OR- just make your favorite image your background.
11. SoftReset and Enjoy!
* Note: you may need to edit some of the applications that the skin.xml file launches. you can do so by editing the skin.xml file.
Recommended applications:
S2U2 by A_C
S2P by A_C
Google Maps by Google
Task Manager by DotFred.net
** I have my mail icon launching Gmail, if you don't have this account on your phone, you'll need to edit the gmail.lnk file to launch the appropriate account.
Special thanks to Mirko Schenk for MortScript, Allgemein and emerym at the rlToday forums and for Sys-to-Reg. Although Sys-to-Reg is currently version 3.0, I'm using 2.0 because it does what I need it to

Hehe, yea, The whole reason I use Sys-to-Reg is so that when there are no messages/missed calls it doesn't display a nasy "0" and its blank.
And the reason for the update via SMS option is because I dont have a data plan
Update
I updated the instructions a bit. This is my first release, so I'm thinking of things to add to the post as I go
wow!!!!!!
thanks in advance
TouchX v2 Theme for Resco Pocket Radio

}
This is a whole new repaint of the default layout. I don't ask for payments or donations of any kind... all I ask is that you respect my work by not selling, copying or distributing this skin. It is for personal use only.
Zip file Password = copyright
Confirmed works with version 1.80 beta
================================
Version 2
Added glossy look, changed bottom display to cyan and touch up.
================================
INSTALLATION
1. (IMPORTANT) The cab file installs four files on your device. These will
OVER WRITE the default theme that comes with Resco Pocket Radio. If you want to
keep the default theme, PRIOR to installing the cab, rename the following files
(I usually add "_orig" to the end of the file name when doing this). This way
you can restore those files by renaming them back:
Program Files > Resco Pocket Radio > Skins > default > default.rs
Program Files > Resco Pocket Radio > Skins > default > main.png
Program Files > Resco Pocket Radio > Skins > default_land > default.rs
Program Files > Resco Pocket Radio > Skins > default_land > main.png
2. Install cab file to same location as Pocket Radio (Device or Storage Card)
3. Run Pocket Radio. The TouchX skin should load automatically in place of
the original skin.
Hope you enjoy.
================================
In case you missed it... Zip file Password = copyright
Version 2 update
Changed the bottom song display to glowing cyan so you can read it better. Also added glossy lighting effect. These are subtle changes but overall gives the entire theme a better look. If you loaded v1 it's definitely worth changing to v2.
I think I'm just about done with this. I'm pretty happy considering it's QVGA screen... there's only so much you can do with it. TouchX stands for Touch Extreme... this is my concept of what Touch theme should be. Kind of a cross between HTC touch theme and Vista like graphics. Enjoy.
Hi. Any chance of a VGA screen version ? I´d be very interested.
Cheers
Ivan
Thanks a lot for sharing this skin, looks great!
@Hikoki - I have a Tilt... so I only did QVGA. I don't have a VGA screen to test it so it's hard for me to make VGA look right by guessing... sorry.
@Dreamcatch - thank you for the compliment sir... it is appreciated.
can u support wvga's skin? thanks....

}
Features:
- Can be uninstalled
- Installs to SD/DEVICE
- Included Ad-blocking filter
- Default homepage set to Google
- Increased disk cache size to 20 MB
- Made the Zoom and Launch buttons 50% transparent
- Replaced the "htc" loading image with build 2392's image
- Fixed the "installation unsucessfull" problem on some devices by removing setup.dll and adding its functions to _setup.xml
Notes:
- Hardware keyboard is reportedly working on Touch Pro/HD but is buggy on Xperia and a few others.
- If you're upgrading from build 2XXX or 19XX,I suggest using this cab over the upgrade version (which just replaces the two Opera exes) as this build contains new features like Vibration and Strength Clicks, which needs the supporting registry entries to work properly. There are also a few minor changes in Opera.ini and other files. Also, a few SD version cabs posted here of earlier builds are buggy (incorrect paths of a few files/registries) so I recommend installing this version for a complete (cooking bugs free) experience.
- As always, please backup your existing Opera/device before installing.
- Tested on WM5 QVGA PPC. (200MHz, 42 MB)
A few interesting tweaks:
- To prevent Opera from continuing to run in the background even after you close it, change the value of this key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Opera\Preload
Name: RealExit
- For vibration support (untested)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Opera\Defaults
Name: VibrationEnabled
\Windows\Opera9\Opera.ini tweaks:
- If you're not satisfied with the default zoom levels, tweak these values:
Code:
[Adaptive Zoom]
Maximum Zoom=
Minimum Zoom=
Minimum Overview Zoom=
- To increase the number of tabs, edit the value below:
Code:
[User Prefs]
Maximum Allowed Tabs=
FAQ:
1) Flash Support?
Flash isn't working. I've yet to fully try out all tricks though, but don't expect a Flash build anytime soon.
2) Uninstall old version?
Not necessary. The installer should automatically remove any older builds.
3) Improvements in this build since 2808?
Better Performance (Reported, not measured)
Vibration Support (Not tested)
Strength Clicks (Double taps? Pressure taps? Not sure about this one.)
Scroll Wheel Zoom
5) Help! Opera's not installing / starting
Before installing, terminate Opera9.exe using a process manager such as in SKTools
A softreset before and after installing helps
Uninstall all existing versions, delete Opera files from \Application Data\, \Windows\, \Program Files\ and run a registry cleaner
If your device has less memory, softreset, then exit all background apps and thirdparty processes (MobileShell/Winterface/etc), compact memory heaps and try launching
Some devices may report an unsucessfull install, but try launching Opera and check if the new version was installed
Troubleshooting:
Please mention the following details:
Device/OS/software specs.
Clean or upgrade install. If upgraded, which was the earlier build, etc.

Count me in on that one too. Sorry, thought it would be easier.
Just one question,please? I've read a couple of times that Flash doesn't quite work with this version. Does Flash work in this cab (this particular build which installs in the SD Card)?
Thanks again for sharing.
I definitely appreciate the installing to the Storage Card. Thanks so much. Can't wait to try it.
i have the previous version of opera SD, must i unistall this version before to install the last one?
Count me also in the installation on device,,
thanks..
