What's better PhoneEx or Tachy dialer? - Touch Pro, Fuze General

I installed PhoneEx on my Touch Pro yesterday and I would say it's much better than the poor phone app that came with my touch pro. I was wondering however if Tachy is better in certain aspects?
I have ready a few places there is such a thing called Tachy. I was unable to find a .cab to install it. Just saw it comes with cooked ROMs. How is it ? Should I bother to test it and if so where can I download it?
Thanks

No one? I thought that Tachy thing is quite popular.

The Tachi dialer was ported specifically for use with the Rhodium Manila port. If you're not using that, then you don't need the Tachi Dialer. The port is still in progress, and is really still in the Alpha phase (though it is mostly working at this point).
I'd say you should stick with what you have.

Windows Mobile 6 - Titanium 2 (WM6Ti) for Universal ?

I'm starting this thread because I saw this amazing ROM for Wizard. Http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=310864&highlight=titanium+2
Is it possible for this ROM, under modification, to run on our Universals?
And how difficult that would be?
wow, great. Just install the cab Touch. Like Ivan (touch) Rom, and you add some additional cab from titanium.

Hi..Do you have the Cabs from titanium. If yes, could you please post it here?
Thanks
Sorry but I'm new with WM phones. Still using my Treo 650. I didn't understand that very well. Already tried that ROM. I thought it would simulate the one of I-phone with the HTC cube but I didn't find that fuction. Could you be a little more specific?
ROMs for Wizards wont work on Universals.
It is very difficult to port a ROM from one device to another.
We already have several WM6 ROMs for the Universal. Pick one.
Then just install those other apps they included on the WM6Ti ROM.
About the HTC cube thingy on Elf (Touch), they haven't figured out how to get them to work on Universal yet. And since only few devs are left working on the Universal now.. you probably won't see that happening soon.
Don't ask me for links.. I don't have any.
Hmm, found this link might help someone http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311225&highlight=extract+cab+file

Think it's a problem with using the same CABs between VGA and non-VGA phones.

What do you mean by "since only few devs are left working on the Universal"? I haven't seen as many on the other forums, as on the universal one, or am I wrong?

We used to have Midget_1990, helmi_c, indra, etc.
The only ones left are Ivan, Laurentius26, and kdskamal making new ROMs.
Laurentius26 and kdskamal only creates new ROMs via the kitchen using the same old base ROMs.. so they're not really the kind of guys that ports a ROM from one device to another, but of course they could also do it in due time, that's why I said we are not going to see that anytime soon.
Besides, they don't need to port those ROMs since we already have a very good base ROM (courtesy of Midget). All that is needed to do is fix a few problems (wifi, mms, and that bloody video call). And that's what our master guru god Laurentius26 is doing.

A friend of mine has an iPhone and I have to admit, it's pretty slick. I think I'll stick with my 8125 for the time being though. Mainly because of price, but also because I like being able to change roms on my phone whenever I want.

I was using NBD 8.0 but had a problem with some "numbers" so I switched to the official Cingular ROM in preparation for something else. It seems a good time to test this launcher, so I'm downloading now and will test it out tomorrow.

I've the iPhone dialer and slide2unlock myself... I like both of them.. they are very nice.
but, now I just use the iphone dialer... slide2unlock use too much RAM.. I mean it releases it but just locking it with device lock works for me.
The iphone dialer is great.. for some reason I feel like my number dialing is faster than anything I've used.
Icontact.. i think I tried it for like a min..but can't remember.. but if you want to try.. try Contact manager.. it's like icontact but it's little diff flavor to it.
I like it but.. I don't use it because it doesn't have search feature.. like the normal contact.. I got over 200 contacts and for me to just starting to type few letter at top really helps me find the contact I need.

Just crappy ugly "NEW" comm manager

Hi there,
can anyone tell me how to get rid of this UGLY "NEW" comm manager style? Anyone like it? Iam really scared of the graphics which can some people cook into their roms and new version of OCTAVOI has this version of commman too, so its the hell on earth for me! like someone steal my candy!
Is there a ROM based on new build which has not USELESS things cooked into? I just want new build with original Microsoft/HTC/Touch/Cube graphics!
I dont know if this comm man is originally styled by HTC if its true so its first styled component/application i dont really like and it sucks my blood...
Thumbnails attached
i second that but then that would only mean that we would have to help the chefs on this site. they offer us cooked roms with many customization. im sure they dont have time for graphics so lets get sometalented members to help out make the future roms look sexy. perhaps we can have a graphics area for all the phones since there many that would be comon.
Look for the 9 button or 10 Button Kaiser CommManager. Thats what I use in XM6 and is what you are asking for. I agree, I don't care for the other commManager's looks (although, the "Nuclear Powerplant one" you point out isn't too bad but I still like the other).
I'll look to see if I have a cab, but I have the packages (and they've been posted here. I know theloon's kitchen for the 318 rom has the Kaiser CommManager package and that can be used on any rom you cook (its not 318 specific).
I am curious why you want it on a "newer" rom build? Personally I've found the 318 rom (even though its "older") much more stable than the "newer" (higher number) builds which are all ports from other devices. I'd be curious what is in the newer stuff that you think is better (not a trick question, just wondering what I'm missing or what I can look to improve in a 318 build).
Agree! I'm using already two weeks mfrazzz's (thank you!) XM6 R3 (OS 5.2.318 Build 15342.4.0.01). No issues! Everything looks good and works great and fast! Even screen calibration bug is gone. C'mon flash this ROM and be happy, there's actually nothing better in versions with higher numbers!

The thing that i really hate about it is this red/greed circles. It is absolutelly ugly in my eyes and this have not to be in such pretty graphics. All is in one style done with perfection and this is what breaking all. Also the ON/OFF text isnt great there.

Its nothing special with roms i think. Its something in me. Specific HIGHER NUMBER SYNDROM ;-) ... but you all are true. I missed reading what are the advantages and just flash, but what was the best rom ever? For me it was faria's AIRAF Stable, great, but missing OneNote (i though that PS's Office2007 can install it to WM device). So the answer is: The bug in me

I actually quite like the look (the so called Nuclear Power Plant) and was wondering if anyone had a cab for it. To me it is simple and clean. I'd love to have it over the one I have now which is the 10 button.

Taste is a personal thing...

got my fuze. Now what?

to my fellow posters,
phew, after a long time waiting, and searching; the fuze has arrived. Its a nice phone, sleek; i just wish i had the original HTC TouchFLo instead of att crap. Build quality feels a little cheap, thank god for the insurance, a relief for us whom bought a tilt when they launched with no insurance. Though i hear the deductible is steep. Had a quick time at the at&t store, when it finally got to my turn. Joseph was nice and informative. I was not given free car charger and/or case like some lucky users, though i did take a swing at it.
So its here now, so what to do now guys? What are recommended roms, and programs etc? I want this phone to do everything lol
really would like :
touch pro EURO touchflo interface(if possible)
nice browsern and all that good stuff. Lets all come together and gasp in Fuze joy! Thanks guys!

hey asad:
bro you are asking questions that are really based on individual taste. What rom is recommended could differ heavily from one user to another .. imo monx aka hung tuah's roms are pretty good. I have tried his kaiser roms they are good.
as far as changing touchflo interface you can just flash a different rom that has the euro version or wait for someone to use a att build and incorporate the euro touchpro interface etc...
I would recommend looking around and searching for various cabs. The sky is the limit !!!

In my experience of trying them out over the past couple of weeks, most of them dont work on the Fuze in landscape mode. Hopefully that will change now that there are so many Fuzes out there!
I know Nisse has a couple that work on the Fuze so he is a good place to start. (I've been running his HTC Black theme since he released it and i like it a LOT better than the stock AT&T theme...)

Have you considered installing CoOkie's home tab mod... and the CHT Editor? It's very good. You might also consider installing an HSPL and flashing a custom rom. Many of them have either CoOkie's home tab or now MaxSense ui built in. The ones I have been watching most closely are Energy Rom and Elegancia. I'm not too familiar with other iPhone clones... you can probably get one for SPB mobile shell but that's a paid app.
How long have you had the phone? Give it a little time to get used to it. Also, def at the very least install CoOkie's home tab... huge improvement over stock and no rom upgrade required.
Do you have a US HD2? You have to be very specific.
Moved as not software release.

I've read a bit about flashing rom but i don't dare, considering the fact that i still have warranty.
So i think i'll only use cabs. i've found one cab (TF_3D.cab) which is 33mb big. Should i install this?

Yeah, I understand your concern. I had the same concerns actually but you can restore the phone back to a stock rom. It seems that the real thing you have to be worried about is that you don't flash a non-us radio onto a us phone. Flashing onto a WM phone is way easy. Probably as easy as jailbreaking an iPhone and easier than rooting an Android device.
I'm not too familiar with TF_3D, is it a Sense replacement, or do you need SPB Mobile Shell or Throttle Launcher to run it?
You really should try the CoOkie mod. haha. Give it a shot.
But wait... there's more!
Oh, btw. CoOkie has announced that the latest and greatest version of his home tab mod, version 1.8, will be released today at 18:00 cest (around 12:00 EST in the US)!
