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.
I have been going back and forth between rltoday and HTC Home. I have issues with both and I like them both. I am currently running the HTC Home plugin.
rltoday Pros:
Highly configurable (if you have time)
very light weight
can use with the hidelogo cab
free
rltoday Cons:
limited user community (for my device)
unable to navigate with five-way
limited native functionality (additional scripts or 3rd party apps needed)
no weather plugin
HTC Home Pros:
Customizable (HTC Home Config)
multi-tabbed
built-in weather
built-in ringer profile selections (with HHC)
launch music player from today screen as well as see what's playing
built-in picture dialer
no 3rd party apps/scripts needed
free
HTC Home Cons:
unable to use hidelogo cab
weather plugin is limited (even with HHC)
profile selections don't always work
a. doesn't vibrate but is silent
b. when the meeting/event is over speaker is turned all the way down
when the clock is touched it launches the time/alarm settings (annoying)
So, what are you running on your today screen and why?
hey too bad nobody is answering to this i would love to know all the cool today plugins there is. Im running the HTC Home plugin and sometimes the cool Pointu interface.
How about you guys ?
I prefer the simple but elegant approach...until something really groundbreaking comes along :
TA Pro: controls LED, and gives quick stats and weather
GoodMobile Messaging Calendar and Mail (also displays sms count)
cLaunch: Three 2xtabs (each tab has 2 wrap rows) with my common apps. I've also modified cLaunch.dll to play nicer with the 240x240 display when in the settings area of the app.
Hidelogo to give a little more real estate
I've also replaced battery.exe with an HTC version that gives a better battery icon and little more display flexibility.
QuickMenu 2.7 to assist with app closing, hibernate, soft reset and additional menu browsing needs.
fTouchflo (last free version) for easier touch navigation
I've replaced the default tahoma.ttf with the one from my XP workstation for a smoother font appearance
================
I really like throttle launcher as a replacement for cLaunch, but presently it takes up too much memory and is a little cumbersome to configure on the fly.
PointUI is promising, but needs better hooks into "Good" before I can use it, plus needs more customization options to allow me to get to what I need in a minimum of "clicks" - it's not presently able to give me what my present setup offers me.

Any screenshots?
My Today screen is settled. I have finalized on HTC Home Plugin. No other plugins on the screen. You will notice that I have the bluetooth and the carrier information hid. This is accomplished with Memaid removing the "active call", and "lookup". This does make some additional challenges like the usage of the talk (green) and end (red buttons) as well as the ringer. These are easily overcome by registry changes. I also employed the HTC Home Customizer to make the background transparent and have the "Vista" icons. Music is being played on the device and only showing in the plug (not title bar) through the use of "wk Task". Also I have the battery icon on the today screen but on other apps the time is displayed. This is a result of HHC as well. You can have the time only always; I chose to have it only away from the Today screen. You will also notice that the left and right softkeys are different. Because I am using the standard Windows Mobile dialer, I can customize these keys. One goes to the mail/messaging and the other goes to my IM program. I am running WM6.1 Lite OS (ROM).
I intend to write a complete document on how to do these customizations. It can be frustrating looking for hours and days piecing things together. WinMob has been a lot more fun for me than Palm (former 650 user).
What other options are out there? Feel free to chime in.
Just added quick menu to the list. It is amazing!
Quickmenu
I have found that this application makes my Treo unresponsive. I noticed that after selecting the application, my phone seems to hang or be very slow. I have uninstalled it until I can figure what is making it unresponsive.

Well my today screen is running SPB Mobile Shell 2.
Version 2 looks real nice and has some cool animations too.
lew, i sent you a pm, id love to get rid of palm dialer and the att/bt logos while keeping red/green button functionality.
I got what I need installed (memmaid, total commander) i just dont know what to do.
what registry settings did you use to get the green and red phone keys functional again after disabling the carrier/bluetooth icons?
Green/Red Button Functionality
Use the following steps to remove the carrier info/bluetooth logo and still use the green/red buttons.
I got rid of the carrier info by way of the removal of "Active Call" and "Dial Lookup" startup items. These were removed using MemMaid. At this point the device will revert to the WinMob dialer. Pressing the green button will launch the dialer and pressing the red button will cause it to go away. However pressing the red button will NOT end a call. You have to press the "End" button on the screen or hangup via your BT device button.
You will need to change the service called "VOL0" to "manual" (MemMaid again).
You will no longer be able to select your ringer in the standard way. You will need to make the change in the registry. HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds is where the change is made. The entries PlmORingTone1, 2 and 3 are the entries for Known Unknown and Roaming calls. You will have to copy and paste (and over-write) the entries from there to "RingTone0", 2 and "RoamingRing0". PlmORingTone1 and RingTone0 are for "Known"callers. You will have to make this change every time you want the ringtone to be different. These steps are not necessary for changing the ringtone of a contact.
You need to remap the device keys. (Backup your device OR copy the values down BEFORE you make any changes if you want to go back!!) Make the following changes in the registry. In HKLM\Security\Phone change the Charmap to "ertdfgxcvzubo" and the Keymap to "ERTDFGXCVZUBO". In HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin change Enabled to "0".
Reset the device
NOTE: These changes are only necessary if you want to use the standard WM6(.1) dialer. Original Values for the Charmap and Keymap entries
Charmap "ertdfgcvbyuio"
Keymap: "ERTDFGCVBYUIO"

Did you install this or did you unzip and launch it? I didn't find an installer (or cab). I will launch it again and reset the device and see if it works.

Thanks for the tutorial, but now the red key no longer turns off the screen. Any ideas
Red Button No Longer Turns Off Screen
I too have the same problem with the red button. To aleviate this I have created a button shortcut that allows me to lock the phone by pressing one button. Using QuickMenu, in the options, on the command tab, choose lock from the list and click on create shortcut. You can now assign a button to this to lock the phone. I choose the OK button. So if I press and hold OK, my phone will lock.
By the way, the issue that I was having with QuickMenu was a conflict with CTRL-Pro. After removing it I am now able to use QuickMenu without any problems.

why not use the "hidelogo.cab" floating around and be done with it? Never had an issue with any soft or hard buttons.

I use the executable and DLL's from http://www.alensw.com/attachment/QuickMenu_2.7.rar
I extract to ExtROM and create a shortcut to the EXE in windows\startup.
All the settings are stored in the registry, use total commander or your preferred flavor of reg reader to import/export for backup/restore purposes.
Cheers
why not use the "hidelogo.cab"
The hidelogo.cab causes a reset loop with the HTC Home plugin.

I saw another post about this, but couldn't find it again, sorry...
In HTC WM 6.1, when you press "Call" (green) button and dial to look through your contacts, when you get to the contact you want and press "action" button it starts a call.
Previously, in WM 6, "action" button" would open the contact so you can see contact's phone numbers. Only if you pressed the Call button over the contact it would place the call.
I remember somebody answered that in WM 6.1 you could still browse through the contact numbers using the "right" and "left" buttons of dial pad. But this way you don't see the numbers, just see if it is "work", "home", "pager" numbers etc.
I do want to OPEN the contacts when pressing "action" button as sometimes you need to consult numbers. Summing up, I want it to work as in WM 6.
Is there a registry change to make it work? I would appreciate any help on this. Thanks.
I'm not sure what you mean. When you click on the green button, you go see the dialers. There are two types of dialers, the HTC and the windows mobile. The HTC one has the one which you can press right left to get Cell Work Home and see the numbers when you highlight it. The other one is the normal one which you don't see the numbers. This isn't a change in WM6.1. It's just using the different type of dialer. You can use Schaps advance configuration to change the dialer to windows mobile or HTC.
Thanks. I am talking about the HTC dialer. I attached an image (38_screen).
As you said "the HTC one has the one which you can press right left to get Cell Work Home and see the numbers when you highlight it" (if you enabled "Automatically expand selected contact" on smart dialing options, otherwise it appears the contact's name and besides just w, h, p...).
But, in WM 6 when you highlight the contact you have to press the "green" button to start the call. If you press the "action" button it "opens the contact" as in the second picture (pc_capture).
In WM 6.1 if you press "action" or "green" the result is the same: the call starts.
The behavior in Wm 6 is more convenient because you use the same procedure to reach the contact to either place a call or to search/edit your contacts.
