Dial Pad - General Questions and Answers

I am sure I am not searching for the right keywords, But I am looking for a different dial pad or dialer.
I hate switching between "Keypad" and "Call Status"
How about both screens minus the keypad?
My Palm Treo 600 had a nice dial pad. Anything similar?
Can someone point me in the right direction?
Or am I wishing for to much?
Thanks,
Alan

Alternate dialer

This dialer will work on the htc series of phones..you don't say what type of phone you currently have and my mind reading powers are on the fritz.

Sorry about that.
I have the ATT 8525.
Thanks for the link...

Why can't I skin my dialpad?

I have a Sprint 700wx flashed up to WM6.
Every time I try and install any of the Dial Pad skins that are out there they never seem to work, I still see the regular dial pad and cprog.exe looks like a lump of cack with a sprint logo on it.
Am I doing something wrong? Missing Something?
Joel
Nope. Palm's dialpad is contained in the activecall plugin dll, not the regular WM program. There is a hack to change the dialpad on Treo 750 (should work on a wx I think) but you lose the green button function for most recent call or some such function. Can't remember where it was posted, treocentral most likely. Search treo 750 hacks.

Phone Dialer Alternative

Anyone know if there is a phone dialer we can install on the TP. The biggest issue i have is when someone calls who is not in your contacts, it comes up unknown number once the call connects and you can't see there caller ID until you hand up. On the Mogul, the number stayed on the dial screen so you could look at it and say is this your number XXX-XXX-XXXX.
Sort of a pain to work around. any insight would be greatly appreciated. thank you.
If you see only Unknown number,perhaps opposite is using CLIR service. Normally it should be available to see all incoming numbers,even is not in contactlist.
Anyway,there is a choice to use another dialer than HTC's...it's builtin MS dialer,which I find much better. All you need is to disable phone skin in Advanced Config.

MS Voice Command on Diamond 2 or wait for WinMo 6.5 "TellMe"

Is there any possibility to get MSVC working on Diamond 2? I used it on my old O2 XDA Orbit 2 with Bepes Rom. Now I'm interested in to use it on my Diamond 2, or should I wait for official Update on Windows Mobile 6.5 with "TellMe" ?
I managed it, but it does not work and caused a problems (i.e. once connected to BT, it always stays connected).
Working fine on mine through bluetooth, I'm using V1.6.19214 found in a link here on XDA. I don't bother with the call button activation, which can be problematic to get working, as I only need it for voice dialling through my BT headset.
hmm, okay... thanks for the reply...
i just wanted to use it for incoming calls, so that the callers name is outspoken and for simplyfying writing sms...
I think i will wait for "tellme" in wm6.5
THX guys

Hi,
I've voice command 1.6 in french, and it works nearly amazing fine. I'm not using bluetooth with it, and the only problem is that, sometimes, when I ask 'CALL ... AT HOME', it asks for confirmation, and it does not understand the 'YES' answer. This problem did not happen with version 1.5.
I also disables incoming caller names, because it has a conflict with the ring, and both are not audible (ring distorded, and voice not understandable).
But it tells you the meetings, mails, battery status, next appointements, etc...
Really amazing on a small device. I don't use contacts mamangers anymore for calling : just using voice command. I even work in the car, with the ambiant sound engine, and radio on (not too loud!). Worth the price for 19.95$ (as far as I remember).
regards,
Olivier.
PS: it fails on install because it has not enough hardware button. After install, go in the settings -> buttons and assing it to the only button. Pressing Green key for two seconds, and wait the the beep and microphone icon on notify bar. If you press the button too long, it makes a loud beep to tell you it is cancelled. You can also magic button, or remap the soft keys.
I used to use Cyberon Voice Commander to make a call. I have no idea how come HTC took off this software on Diamond 2...
I have sent the email to Cyberon to ask if there is any possible way to get their Voice Commander. They responded that the software now has retail version for about 10 languages, and they offer the full function 30-day trial on their website. I am using it so far. It works well on my Diamond 2.
Vito
Vito technology has 2 voice command apps. VoiceDialer to simlpy call some1 and Voice2Go to launch apps and cpntacts and so on.
How come there is just one button to assign something to? I would like to use cyberon voice commander via the headphone mic-button.. is there a way to do this, or is it a limitation in td2?

Try the latest version of Cyberon Voice Commander v2.5.2r from Cyberon website http://www.cyberon.com.tw/order_Product_con.php?NO100=15 as Lacerta mentioned .
This version provides "hold Volume-up" or "hold Volume-down" to launch CVC in Setting, as well as you can start it by pressing the button on BT earset.
Per xhaavardx, I downloaded the app from Vito Technology. Works great in the office. Totally useless driving down the road. And I do mean totally. Will not successfully dial a single voice tag I recorded in the parking lot unless I pull off the road and turn off all accessories, even the heater fan.
There was a post on this site somewhere recently stating that someone had converted the app from the old HTC Wizard into a .cab that could be installed on the diamond 2. I can't seem to search that thread out, though. Can any of you guys find it? That thing worked absolutely great!

This one was ripped from Samsung but haven't tested it.
Tried a text but no luck so far. Will keep trying.
Also, MSVC is working great.

Tried the Tellme file on my Pure. It works decently while I'm on my wireless network but continually tells me it can't find the network even when it's at full strength on the 3G network. Maybe it's because it was configured to search for Sprint's network, I don't know. I've seen other say they got it to work for them.
Voice Dial for Touch Diamond 2
Hello, All:
Concerning voice dial for the Touch Diamond 2, I found Cyberon Voice Dial on this bulletin board in a thread somewhere, but, regretfully, I can't find it back. IF you can find it, it is DA BOMB!! Yeah, you have to record the voice tags, but it works great in noisy environments and almost never makes a mistake. I don't use BT with the new phone, but Cyberon worked great with the BT on my old Wizard. Whatever you do, don't pay for Vito Voice Dial. It is truly unserviceable in any situation with even moderate noise.
Good Luck! Hope this helps.

The program won't even start for me on WiFi.
I believe the network issue is specific to AT&T from what I have read. No fix for this yet.
Pity....

Contact Search never clears after dial

I support a ton of WM phones here at work..
I got one that is in another state so I'm having trouble figuring it out.
He's got a new HTC Touch Pro from US Cellular.
One complaint he has is when he goes to contacts and starts typing a name.
Say DAVE.. no problem.. it finds all the daves and he can dial one.
After a call the next time he goes back into contacts it still saves DAVE so he has to backspace before he can search and dial someone else.
None of the phones I have here do that so I'm not sure what to try.
Anyone seen this before?
Thanks

Dialer parameters for WinMo 6.1?

I'm not sure this is the right forum, but I can't find anywhere more appropriate...
I have a WinMo 6.1 phone (AT&T Fuze-branded Touch Pro), and I recently discovered Androkkid (http://www.simosoftprojects.com/androkkid.php), and I'm impressed, but I need to figure out how to make a couple of features work before I can be really impressed with it.
At present, I have an icon labelled "Voicemail", which I can set as type "contact" (which means that when I click on it, it dials my voicemail), or as type "voicemail" (which means that it tells me how many voicemails I have waiting for me, but clickin it just takes me to the dialler. I'd really like it if it can display the number of voicemails and automatically dial my voicemail when I click on it. Is there a parameter I can pass into the dialler that will tell it to automatically dial a specific number?
I also have an icon which displays the number of missed calls, and takes me to the dialler; I would like this to instead take me to the call history log.
I'm sure these are trivial problems, but I've been unable to find anything helpful on the Googles. Thanks for your time.
