Phone dialers truncate long contact names in call status screen

From the first day i got my KAISER (HTC TyNN II) i had this issue with long contact names. Here is a print screen of what i am talking about:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The call status screen (the screen you see when you are involved in a conversation with someone or while waiting for a call to be established) seems to be designed for short names only. I saw this problem with standard windows dialer, diamond lookalike dialer (L26 ROM) and now with HyperDragon III OPAL ROM.
Over 50% of my contacts have long names so it is really frustrating for me not being able to see the whole contact name.
I managed to binary edit the phcanrc.dll shipped with L26_KaiserDiamond_V9 build (diamond lookalike dialer) and increase the contact info custom control width for the call status dialog and i was happy about that.
I installed HyperDragon III OPAL the last night and the overall impression was good, but then i got into the same problem: the call status window hasn't got enough space to display long contact names. I tried to binary edit phcanrc.dll shipped with HyperDragon ROM, but those dialog resources are a big mess, impossible to edit (i'm guessing they do a lot of runtime control adjustment).
My real question is: does anyone have any idea how to change that dialog in order to get more contact name space? I saw that they have a lot of registry keys related to the phone dialogs, and you can change the font name/size for the buttons (END CALL button, for example), but i didn't find any registry key that would allow me to make the font size smaller or (better) make the whole control bigger (maybe move it above contact picture and make it equal to screen width).

Try using HTC_KAIS_PHONE_CANVAS_1_50_30437_0_888 from eOS extended pack. You can find it here.

And the purpose of doing so would be
this?!

Well, i don't have long contact names, so i don't have this problem. I thought that this dialer wouldn't cut long names because it has small font and enough space even when contact picture is available.
However, I don't see this as major problem because:
1) when you call someone, you know who are you calling because you selected it from your contacts
2) when someone calls you, you can use something like caller ID from S2U2 which shows long names (I can't test it right now, but as I can remember it works fine).
Sorry if this is not helpful.

Hi "Ellinara" you must use AthineOS ME or v2.2

[Solved] Problem with Wktask and Xbutton (SEE IMAGE)

Hi everybody,
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
As you can see in the picture attached, the X button (that's the X button that comes when you install wktask) is so big that overrides my battery icon (or the clock icon if have this instead of the battery).
1) First, under wktask settings, you can choose not to use a skin for the X button, which sthetically is great, because i like the default icon (i'm using NRG ROM 3.0 'Magic' BTW...).
But if i use this option, i loose the functionality of wktask... for example if i close an application tapping the x button, wktask close TWO application instead of ONLY the one i wanted.
2) If i use the wktask X button i have the awesome functionality that the app has, but i 've this sthetical issue that i'm asking now...
3) So, does anyone know, how to get the X button smaller or have wktask functionality with the standard X button that comes with the ROM?
Thanks!! (i've googled the problem several times, looked the author's site, etc...)
SOLUTION --> i started to change the parameters under "General 1" tab and the UNchecked the "use a skin file for X/OK buttons". After thar, i soft reset my phone.
Now i have the custom X button that comes with NRG rom and the functionality of wktask...
I dont know why, but before this, when i pressed the X button,sometimes wktask closed two app instead of ONLY the one i wanted.

since that's a sizing issue, i don't think there's anything you can about it. last i checked, theres no way to move the taskbar icons around.

So perhaps there is a way to make wktask work properly with the original X button from the ROM.
It's a bit strange... so... the "skin" is not only a skin... it does something more...
I should try reinstalling wktask... i didnt do it before cause i have my icons set up in the wktaskLauncher...
Thx for the answer!

Where's the Notification Area/System Tray in WM 6.5?

New here, first post. Looks to be a very informative site! Excited to get my hands on WM 6.5.1 and Manilla/Sense 2.5 ROMs.
Anyway....where is the System Tray in WM 6.5? You know, the icons that show at the bottom of the screen on WM 6.x (before 6.5) when you have certain applications open? Such as AIM, PDAnet, etc.. I don't see it on my Imagio (Manilla), or in the 6.5 emulator. Manilla does provide the helpful running-apps menu, however.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

It's on the today screen (disable chome or manila).

Hmm, I'm not seeing it on the today screen. Is it possible that it's not enabled? Maybe I'm missing something, do you have a screenshot?

Well, there are only a few apps that show the icon. Dotfred's task manager does if you uncheck "no icon in tray." Also, mymobiler does it if select the option to show it. The only other app I have that I can do it with is SK Today Commander, but it also has a plugin, so the icons are redundant and kind of fugly to boot (the #'s are the plugin).

Ah, but you're not using WM 6.5, you're using 6.5.1 or some modified version. I'm talking with straight 6.5, there is no tray area. Also with Manilla there is no tray area, apparently.

I'm using 28002 (6.5.3), but trust me, it's there in 6.5.0 builds, too. You have to disable CHome in the home/today settings (windows default in the check list) and just use the regular Today screen to see it. The other plugins like CHome and Manila cover it up. It's still there, you just can't see it because the UI is a Today overlay. For whatever reason, I prefer the Today screen over all the other UI's available. I don't like finger scrolling so much to find things.

Ah! I didn't realize the new default home screen was called CHome. Disabled that and now I see the normal Today screen, complete with the Tray icons. Thanks!

[Q] Landscape dialer - please help!

I have searched and searched but can't seem to find a solution anywhere to this problem:
I really would like to be able to use my phone dialer in landscape as I have it fixed in a landscape holder in the car to use iGo. I have added the a new string in HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCSENSOR\GSensor\WhiteList named 'Dialog' with a value of 'Dialog' so this now allows the phone canvas to rotate to landscape from portrait. I also tried adding a new string called 'Phone' in HKCU\Software|HTC\HTCSENSOR\ModuleName and giving it a value of '\Windows\cprog.exe and adding a string called 'Phone' in the WhiteList with the value 'crpog' but neither of these (or any combination of the three entries) made any difference over the original entry listed above so I removed the latter two.

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The problem is that if I have my phone in landscape then open the dialer by pressing the left hardkey it opens momentarily in portrait then rotates to landscape (would be nicer if it opened directly in landscape but this isn't a major issue). The dialer is then fully functional (all buttons work, you can hide and reveal the keypad, etc) until you press the talk button and then the active call window opens in portrait. If I then move the phone from landscape to portrait and back again the active call window then switches to landscape and again is fully functional there. When you then end call which closes the active call window it goes back to the dialer window which again is now back in portrait!!!!
My question is - does anyone far cleverer than me know how to get both windows to check for orientation first before opening? There must be a workround for this surely - some clever reg tweak that everyone probably knows about already but which I can't find

The registry keys you are describing tell the phone which apps for which it is okay to detect an orientation change, not the target orientation for the apps. I think you would need to create a per-app script that would actually change the orienatation of the system (such as what you can do from your WinMo settings screen) and then launch the app in question... and then change the orientation back after the app is closed. If anyone knows of an existing cab or tool that does all this, I too would be interested in it...

Choose App
Select User Dictionary
Touch words. Below will be displayed
SQL command (Select * from words) is displayed. To execute, touch the arrow in right upper corner
All words will be displayed
Suppose you want to change the shortcut for the word/phrase "Aduuuh...", touch that word.
The following screen will be displayed. Do you want to update something?
Yes, we want to update the shortcut
In that case, touch Update Value
The SQL command now turns into Update
But we want to update the shortcut, not the word… OK. No problem. Just touch Update? in the upper left corner
Now touch shortcut in the options. Below will be displayed
Select Enter Value (if you see your choice in the option, just touch that. But you don't see that now. Touch "null" if you want to get rid of a shortcut).
You just need to enter your shortcut. In this case, I try to put the word "aduhm", choosing the letter "m" being close to the dot button in the keyboard
The SQL command is now perfect (you can remove "word = Aduuuh..." if you want, by touching Update again. Try it...)
Just execute by touching the arrow in the upper right corner
Then you have to press "Commit" twice, in the screen below and next screen, to make sure you don't make a mistake
The first Commit
The second Commit
Done. The changes are written to file
You can get out by pressing the upper left arrow, or
You can delete the Where clause and execute the select command again
Or just press Back Button of the phone and go to previous commands
=======================
You also can add Bookmarks for the commands so that so don't need to write again next time.
The two arrows in lower left and right corner is for navigating through records, mostly for Select command.
That's all
Thanks for reading and watching
