Use Camera for new contact picture - General Questions and Answers

Hey guys,
I'm not sure if this has already been asked, couldn't find it but if it has, just remove it.
Is there a possibility/program/tweak to use the camera when assigning a picture to a contact like on the iPhone? What I mean is when you add a new contact who just gave you his number you just click on the picture symbol and instead of the pictures directory, the camera opens and you can directly take a photo of the person. Should be possible by editing the registry? Would be great if someone could help with that!
Regards

Which WinMobile and UI version are you using? 6.5 with Manila 2.1+ offers the picture directory in thumbnail form, and the first icon is a camera icon. Click that, and you can take (and crop immediately after) a new photo.

Hey thanks for the answer! I figured it out for my UI, I'm using WM6.5 and Titanium and recently installed PhoneEx which offers this function which I found out after some trying So, thanks and question answered
Regards

Which Dialer for WM6 shows the largest picture?

I am using the XDA Mobile 6 r2a ROM and all is well except the dialer.
The contact's picture shows up very tiny. So my question is which
dialer for WM6 shows the largest picture?
Ummm..... Now I'm using NBD 8.0, very nice. May decide to keep vs cooking my own. All it needs IMO is MuN keyboard, Calc lite & Novii remote toy!
Still question is, which dialer shows the largest / biggest / contact / picture / photo? So far I'm seeing teeny tiny contact pics and that's not too great.
I HAVE searched these posts but I keep missing! ANY help would be appreciated.

Depends on which picture you want bigger. When someone is calling you and there number pops up, and you have a photo associated with them, if that is what you want big, then I would leave it at the default wm6 dialer. Not the one you have, which I believe is from the HTC touch rom. Now if you mean the photo on the dialer itself when you are making a call or on a call, Then the biggest picture I've seen is using Pauly Eten Dialer Classics. They show a very big picture on the dialer itself. Hope that helps
Thanks for the suggestion, I'll give it a shot this week and report my results.

Is there a way to disable the front panel?

Hi to All,
Is there a way to disable the front panel(HOME/BACK/END/TALK-SEND/Navigation Control) of the raphael.
It will be use by childrens to take picture and then I will send the pic by email...
The problem i have is that when they use it i don't want them accidentally get out of the camera mode or take a call or...
Basically i just want the keyboard to be active and they use ENTER to take picture
i did made a quick search i the registry HKLN but ddnt find nothing .
Merci

Look up DredSensor, it's an app that I'll allow you to do that.
EDIT: OK, here's the thread link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=478827.
Cheers.
thats seems cool! hey the only one thing i noticed is that on my raph it disables the keys or keyboard by itself when it wants too i guess it just lags pretty much..

Help with MMS notifications

When I recieve a new MMS message from someone in my contact list that I have assigned a picture to, the standard WM6 notification that shows the sender, and their photo comes in at the very bottom of the screen and it is half cut-off.
Hopefully this makes sense.
Is there any way I can fix this?
Thanks
Another bump...
Can anyone send me in the right direction (besides the search ) for this one?

I have a kaiser with a stock ROM.
I'm sure this has to do with PCM, and S2V. When you use either of these apps to assign contact photo's the higher resolution is also shown on the notification bubble/window when you recieve an MMS message.
But instead of some sort of "auto adjust", the notification window comes in on the same place on the today screen, but the window is half cut off.
hehe... i think you answered yourself.

Yeah, I know what's causing it, but I want to know how to *fix* it without having to possibly reassign all of my contact pic's with the WM6 contact manager.
Is there something in the registry that can adjust where the notification shows up on the screen??
what i meant was... that you'd probably need to either use it as is or talk to one of the developers to see how to fit the pics differently... or it would throw itself back to different res.

[Q] Basic image-editing functions?

Hello xda-developers
What method do you use to rotate/crop pictures on the phone? Do I really need to use an app?
I'm missing an implemented menu with the basic functions like rotating the image with two fingers and zooming in and finally clicking on a "Save" button. Anyone heard of those tools in an update? Thanks in advance
Right now, you can only do it with apps. I believe Mango will have more integrated picture editing features.
Thanks for the reply
Anyone who can confirm this?
Thanks in advance,

Yes, confirmed... at the moment you need an app.
WP ties third party photo apps into the camera and pictures hub. Tap the ellipsis (...) when viewing a photo, then select "extras". This will pull up a list of only the photo editing apps on your phone. It isn't ideal as having some basic editing tools available natively would be, but it's much easier than closing out of the camera or photo, scrolling through the apps list, finding the app and again searching for the photo you want to edit.
Wow, thanks for the tip MPerz
I can't wait until Mango gets released
Thanks,

You mean this one?
It seems that it can only be installed in specific phones (maybe HTC only idk).
;/
Yep, this one. But it can only be installed on htc devices, and also i dont need whole gallery, not even going to mention that i dont need sense 6 version. I only need editor app and it can be from htc sense 5 if it makes my problem any easier to solve
