How do I modify HTC dialing options? - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De

I wasn't sure how to ask this so bare with me.
I have an ATT tilt with the HTC ROM on it. When I go to phone mode and am looking at my keyboard, I have the smartdialing box, the keypad and then three boxes upper-left side = LEFT ARROW (delete), VIDEO CALLING icon, and CALL LIST icon.
VIDEO calling doesn't work and I don't understand what those icons in the CALL LIST (are they received calls? Dialed calls?) are all about. I was wondering if I could switch what those three buttons do? I can't find any ability to change those in OPTIONS..
I suspect that further modification will require cabs or ROM updates?
I have imprecise fingers so the keypad is excellent- I don't want to change that at all.
Thanks guys

yeah.. me too flashed my 1 day old tilt with the htc stock rom... and the dialpad sucks..... no "CALL" button on screen....
Now have to use the keypad and fingers to dial a number and pressing the green call button to actually call... it was quite annoying at the beginning... but now I am gettin used to it.
Still if any registry editing could be done in order to remap the 3 buttons on the right hand side of the dial pad screen, it would be great....
Except for this option, the HTc stock ROM is gr8888888888 !!!!!!

anyone?
There has to be a way to play with the HTC dialpad?
Screen shots?

I like the default dialer.

ok I know this is a painfully dumb question but I've searched and can't find any solution. How do I edit my Kaiser's registry?
Thanks

press and hold pound # for silent

I just changed my T-Mobile SDA to I-Mate sp5m ROM, and it seems much faster! The one thing that is really REALLY bugging me is that i can no longer use the # key to switch between normal and silent! Is there a way to enable this?
Also is there a way to add the toggling of WiFi into the QuickList (the list by pressing the power button) like it is in the T-Mobile ROM?
And one last thing I would like to change is when you look at your call history by pressing the green button (on the home screen), is there a way to make it that when you press the joystick in it views call details instead of calling the person?
I can use the green button to call the person and liked it more the T-Mobile way where it would open call details.

Everyone of these is spot on. #3 really bugs me.
I agree, also. I would like to be able to toggle silent mode with the # key. Another problem that I have with the SP5 rom is that for some reason my recently dialed, missed, and received calls are not sorted by date and time. I can't think of why they wouldn't be, and I can't figure out how to fix it. Is there a way to fix this?

Shortcut from scrollwheel to last called numbers?

Is there a way to make a shortcut from the scrollwheel,so you just have to press the wheel to get in to the last called numbers list?
Would be much more easy to make call with one hand..
Sorry for my bad english
If you press the green phone button, you will pull up and be able to redial the last number you called.
OMG are you kidding me push the GREEN TALK BUTTON and the last call is right there then push the GREEN TALK BUTTON AGAIN and thats it.. So a total of 2 yes a whole 2 button pushes.....
Is it just the last number or do you get a list with numbers ?
Sorry...I dont have a TyTn II myself..Just tested a friends.
Edit
I want to go direct to the list with all my last called numbers,not just the last.
You now what i mean ?
Im not so good at english :-/
on my 8525 there was a box on my dialpad that listed all recent calls, right from the dialer you could scrool down to select any previous number in the order they were called. i believe this is what the poster is talking about. i can not remember what it was called but i would like it on the tilt as well, it basically replaced the standard smart dialer with one that listed call history. anyone have this?
Green Phone button - Up on the 4 way pad
That will get you to the recent call list - 2 buttons pressed
Ok..Thanks
nice tip, thanks!
(And by the way, it's the left or down key to get to Speed Dial.) However, one problem is neither of those works if the keypad isn't showing and you just have the Call History and other buttons up there (with Keypad being the left soft key option). Anyone know if there's a reg hack to make the keyboard stay up there permanently? Thanks.
Also, with the keyboard displayed, you can use the scroll wheel up to get last called, or scroll wheel down to get speed dial numbers.

change soft keys when receiving a call on the kaiser?

Hello....first off, thanx to Dutty. Been using dualtouch v3 rom on my att tilt and it works great. donation will be coming soon.
does anyone know how i can change what the soft key screen options are when i am receiving a call? currently my option are "silence" and "send text". am i able to change them to "answer" and "ignore"? I know i can do these things with the call and end buttons but its easier with the screen.
also, is there a way to make my soft keys light up when i am receiving a call? i thanx,
jacob
You need a matching dialer, but i cannot tell you, which one and where to get it. You might ask one of our chefs (ROM builder).

How about tapping down (or up/left/right) on the 5-way nav to make it light up?
I personally don't mind using the green/red buttons since it's SOO redundant to duplicate with the soft-keys also. It's somewhat more Treo-like also.
bump... did a search and couldn't find anything
I would like to know the answer as well? Does anybody know how to do it?
Me2..
.. glad to know I'm not the only one who's annoyed with the softkey option that comes with the touchdual. The dialer is awesome and I'm using it on my Tilt. I like the feature where it asks if I wish to save a first time answered number..
I'd like to get two "tweaks" for the DualTouch dialer..
1. The same as Jake where I'd like to switch the softkeys function while receiving a call during conversation.. to answer and ignore.. better still, i'd take conference and ignore, if thats possible.
2. I would like to have a conference button get automatically activated on the status screen where there are the six buttons that one can tap while in call. So, this way when I dial the third line to enable conferencing, I won't have to open the options softkey and then tap on the tiny conference option...
Hope I didn't sound twisted..

DIAL PADS!!!!!!!!! Why oh Why?

How come some of the DialPads out there the Iphone (phonePad) and Nargz (iphone) dial pads keep locking up our HTC touchs'?
Also how come developers don't use almost the entire screen as buttons for the dial pad. Even the DialPad that came with the touch has this issue. There's a lot more space that can be utilized to make bigger keys.
Take for example the Vista Style dial pad. Really great DialPad, by the way.
But I don't need to have the Windows icon (in the top right corner), I don't need the Last Call showing, I don't need to see Rogers in the top left corner. That's all real estate that can be used to make bigger keys. Or fit a bigger TALK key.
And please, please to anybody reading this and deciding to modify or developing an existing dial pad or make a new one. Please, I beg you. When there's an incoming call, make the Name / Phone number and the Answer / End keys really, really BIG. That's one of my biggest gripes with the default dialer and the Vista dialer.

Customizing Keys in WM 6.5

A couple things I want to customize:
(1) When dialing a call, I have to use the touch screen to dial numbers... unless I lock it into number mode first, then I can use the keyboard.
How can I make it default to number lock??
(1) The power button only works for waking up the screen.
How can I make the power button turn off screen or power off phone??
(3) Want to add icons to Home screen. Tried CHome Editor, but it's not working for me. No matter what I do, It won't commit any new panels or icons. It will only add or remove icons that are already part of the Windows Default.
Any ideas??
(4) And one more thing... The clock is not syncing with the provider. And I can't find a setting to make it.
Any help appreciated. Thanks!
I looked around a little bit but didn't see any other threads with answers so I started a new one. Is that ok?
