Difference between Rhodium and Tachi Dialer? - General Questions and Answers

Been searching around the forum for this, but haven't found any answers. So can someone please briefly answer my question:
What is the difference between the Tachi Dialer and the Rhodium dialer??
Both seem to be ported to several devices other than the original, but I can't see any big difference in images...
Thanks for any help

They are fairly similar.
Rhodium supports conference calling and video calling (it's designed for GSM phones) and has a manila-esq bar of buttons along the bottom of the page. Parts of it don't work on VGA devices as it's for a WVGA device, but it has landscape.
Tachi is for a GSM/CDMA device without a forward camera, and is for VGA natively so it works on VGA devices. It has no native landscape mode though I believe it has been made to work in landscape with some of the Rhodium files.

Ah, okay, thanks a lot

Cool Thanks for the info

Is Tachi developed by HTC as well? or has it just been ported by cooks from somewhere else?

Developed by HTC and brand is dopod which is HTC's.
I think it has only released in Chinese.
Best Regard

Hi Sorry for perhaps a dumb question but I had one of these dialers on a previous rom which had a record conversation/call option which one of these has that option,sorry for being a noob

Iphone DialPad for VGA Device...

Hello there !
I don't know if it already exists...
I've got an Eten x500+ (a VGA WM6 device), and i search a version of the existing iphone dialpad (qvga) wich will correctly fit on my VGA screen...
I'm sure that it will interest some peoples, like Universal and Athena owners...
Thanks in advance for the response.
no one got this ?
well... many read of this topic but no response...
are the VGA users so insignificants ?
snif... please !
I think you might get something on this one using "iphone" and "dialpad" in the search box. I'm not much of an helper, but I hope this only answer at least gives you hope
Make sure you get the right dialer for your device (basic, standard, 3g or any other version I forgot). They have help on this in almost every dialer topic.
thanks for your response, but i've still search... and nothing found...
for me, a "basic" dialpad will be OK... (cause i got an Eten X500+)
sometimes i regret my HTC Prophet (QVGA)
Go to http://www.pocketcm.com They have the iPhone dialer and it's free. You will also have to download a VGA theme which is linked.
Works on my Uni
sorry, i'm maybe stupid, but, i've search on this site, but don't found any Iphone Dialpad for VGA Device...

Looking for VGA themes too
I have been looking for an iPhone-like VGA dialpad too for quite some time, and I haven't found one so far. I use an Eten Glofiish X500+ too. So, I would really like to see this topic solved...
By the way, I am not only looking for the dialpad, but also the other applications (Launcher, Contacts Manager, etc.). But it looks like all that has been developed until now is for QVGA screens, not VGA...
maybe in few time it will be available...
nothing ? please !!!
up please ! or someone can explain me how to do ?

Looking for a rom..... With landscape support

In a bit of a n00b when it comes to these sweet cooked roms. (my first decent phone in a while)
I currently have the Hyperdragon III rom on my Tilt now, And I LOVE it!! Great work man!
I have spent many a nights at work (network engineer) customizing it the way i like it.
But I am looking to find one that supports landscape as well, as that one gets wonky when in landscape mode.
Whats the best one for my tilt?
Thanks guys in advance.
What do you mean supports landscape? All devices support landscape.
Please, either post your request in that thread or go through the ROMs offered here and choose the one best to your likings.
I think he means which kaiser rom with Manilla 2D, that supports landscape.
Anyway, to answer your question, Solace 1.5 by Mbarvian has a landscape menu, but it takes a few seconds to kick in, and can take even longer when you close the keyboard because it has to re-launch TouchFlo.
Your other option is to edit your XML file(s) to better compensate for landscape. There are a few threads on how to do this. Since Manilla 2D does not support landscape at all, xml editing can't resolve every issue, its more of a workaround at best.

TF3D or TF2D on NON-HTC Devices, WVGA

I've search the threads for these two, and even tried using the forum search, but there's just so much chaff amongst the threads that after hours of looking, I gave up.
So, a simple question. Is there a version of either TouchFlo 3D or 2D (The Manilla interface) available that runs on NON HTC devices, and has preferably been sized to WVGA resolutions?
If so, please throw me a bone (or better yet, a link!).
Ta
So I guess that's a no then?
I would like to know also
I'm currently reading up on the non htc patch,,,
it looks like manila runs on the Samsung i760
looks like the answer is in this 500 page thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=398173
Manila 2d WVGA here:
http://www.4winmobile.com/forums/e-...a-2d-tf2d-m900-f900-x960-wvga.html#post237210
I haven't tried it myself.
I'm looking for a definitive list of what would be needed to get manila 3D 2.1 or 2.5 up and running on a non-HTC device too. I know there will be lots of other packages to install in addition to manila itself, but it's hard to work out exactly what is needed.....

[App] Rhodium & Topaz Dialers for Windows 6.5 & Windows 6.5.3

Hi!
From time to time on various ROMs threads someone is asking for other dialer then it was cooked into ROM.
Some of us likes the Topaz dialer without conference calls option but with curtain preventing key presses while talking and some of us prefer Rhodium dialer without curtain but with conference calls (they don't care about screen presses or they use some 3rd party tools to prevent this).
Because it's not possible to please us all by all chiefs we need to customize it by ourselves . For this purpose I've created three CABs: One for Topaz and two for Rhodium dialer (6.5 and 6.5.3 version).
Topaz dialer is available here:
http://rapidshare.com/files/300358400/Qbus_Topaz_Dialer.cab
...and Rhodium dialer is available here:
http://rapidshare.com/files/301083458/Qbus_Rhodium_Dialer.cab
...and Rhodium dialer for Windows 6.5.3 (fixed scrollbar bug) is available here:
http://rapidshare.com/files/340537139/Qbus_Rhodium_Dialer_for_653.cab
Please be aware that all of these CABs contain all files from original OEM so they override top icons (phcanOverbmp.dll).
All dialers are compatible only with OEM's up to 2.17!
Well... I would like one with conference calls and with curtain too! Is this possible on the Topaz?
Thx
Dont install these they are very very crap. Also u can no longer dial from contact. Had to hard reset.
Cheers !

You had made something wrong . They were tested by me in every detail before uploading them here (the ROM I used was TESS 3.8).

OK so they dont work on Duttys R0 ROM.
I have a Topaz with a Topaz dialer. I don't like the curtain at all. I have tried the Rhodium dialer before. The problem with this dialer is that when you disconnect your bluetooth headset, it comes up with a silly message, something like "now you will have to put the phone to your ear to hear".... This is so annoying that I will stick with the Topaz one and live with the curtain....
Crappy dailer...
Its not working for me as well.... Im using Dutty Holy Grail R0.. Ive downloaded ur Rhodium dailer and just install the cab and restart.. then i check out the dailer..its not even close to rhodium dailer and nothin comes out on screen when im on the phone.. but the worst part is that ur cab cannot be uninstall and i hv to re-flash my topaz just cuz of that... i think u better check out ur cab first before publishing it...
Works perfect on UDK's ROM. But, does not work with Dutty's.
I didn't like the Rhodium dialer. I cook with the dialer from the Pure, Phone Canvas 4... much simplier so less screw ups.

What udK Rom did you try it on? Would like to use it on udK's Leo R5 [GER]
Thanks for feedback
Dear qbus00,
do you have any chance to provide this Rhodium dialer also in German?
Thanks!

If I only get German OEM (or learn on how to disassembly HTC ROMs to get one).
Hi qbus00,
thanks, but I guess its not necessary ;-)
I installed your Rhodium Dialer on
udK Leo R5 WM6.5 - Build 21869.5.0.82 - Base v2.31 [GER]
and:
It works great!
- Supports VideoCall AND ConfCall
- Works in Landscape mode (if enabled)
- Has NO curtain in front of the buttons (what some don't like)
- I do NOT get this crazy message if headset is disconnected from bluetooth.
I don't know why german just works, and why this strange bluetooth message doesn't pop up any more...and honestly I don't care. My Topaz is now99,9% perfect!
Thanks again,
GeScha
PS: Conflicts with YouTube player: If YouTube (seperate) App is used, sound playback is not working as soon as first time tried for all youtube till next softreset.
YouTube via Opera works (also playback incl. audio) as long as YouTune App itself was not started.
PS2: One bug to report:
In Landscapemode the line above the dialer, where the currently typed numbers, the carrier (and if enabled the battery status) is shown, doesn't work.
Regarding the Display bug in landscape mode:
I guess it might only be the backgroundcolour setting from the display area of the dialer in landscape mode, that seems to be white (in landscape) instead of gray (as in portrait)
That might be the reason why the typing isn't seen in landscape.
Any idea where to change the colour of the display area of the dialer?
PS:
The YouTube "no sound" big seems also to be connected to this dialer.
When Rhodium dialler is installed, youtube app doesnt playback sound, after installing original Topaz dialer again, sound is also working again.
qbus:
Any idea which of the *.dll's that are installed with Rodhium dialler could cause this issue?
Could you maybe put together a package, where you do NOT update the dll's for Rhodium dialler or isn't it working with the newer dll's?
Thank you, my friend!
I am looking for them!
Some issues
First of all a big thank you for sharing this, I've been searching hard.
A couple of issues, Rhodium Dialer:
- on Energy ROM it does not fit correctly, and replaces some icons (sim, battery .... )
- It cannot be removed: I think making the CAB uninstallable would make it possible.
Anyway, let me say I appreciate much this work, and I'll keep looking at this.
Regards
Hi guys..
Can anyone upload this to someplace other than RapidShare? MegaUpload or something.. I can't seem to download from RS.

Hi GeSha
Have you really tried videocall?
I tried it too and yes it supports videocall and concall but I really tried videocall with a motorola v9 and it failed.
I can call it but during the connection nothing hearn, nothing seen.
However v9 can't call hd2 because call is not permissed

Question: Can I use TF3D-Clocks with Leo?

Hey folks!!
The question is: Can I use some cooked Clocks for TF3D (Diamond) with my Leo? For examples please click here.
Looking forward for your knowledge
Good morning...and *up*!
Diamond is a QVGA device and Leo is a WVGA device, what do you think????

The Diamond is a VGA device. See here. I know, cos it was my 1st HTC device and I LOVED it!
Anyway, in answer to the OP, I don't think the clocks will work as Sense and TouchFlo are different things, so I reckon the Manila files would (probably) have different names. Other than that, they may be compatible.
I suggest you ask someone who makes clocks for Sense, like dragon_soft (for example), OP of this thread...

Well in that case, I still have to correct you
Most VGA software IS compatible with WVGA, especially theme changes. When I moved from a Touch Diamond to a Touch HD, I kept all the theme mods and just applied them. I'd say 95% of them worked. The only ones that wouldn't work were things that relied on the vertical resolution (in portrait). Obviously, the screen was still 480 pixels wide, just 160 pixels higher! So, if it was still TouchFlo and not Sense, the clock mods would work.
Anyway, I've said my piece
Thank you very much for your answers guys, you´ve enlarged my knowledge
I´ve opened up a request now, if there´s another soul that´s interested in this! (My interest is focused on the android clock).
