Post your Raphael Today Screen!

It seems like every device specific forum has one of these threads.
So, I thought why not making one for our Raphael!
I've disabled TouchFlo3D from day one. I just don't like it so much.
I've installed PocketBreeze, PhoneAlarm, and Wisbar Advance 3 with brand new Prot'n V2 skin by enCORe.
I'll start with mine:

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

It'd be nice if you also mention the programs/plugins we're seeing.

If not for TF3D I'm not so sure the Fuze is better than a lot of other PPC's out there, I LOVE it and couldn't leave it.

I love those TF3D tab icons, I just wish they were all colored instead of some color and some B&W.

Actually, the icon package is black and white for all inactive tabs, and goes color once you select the tab. The only exception is the one I have for the calendar tab, simply because I have an active tab icon that holds the day number within the icon. Therefore, someone with your setup would have all black and white inactive icons, and color on the tab selected.
Here's what it looks like when I go to the contact tab.

Awww yeahhhh, that's sick.

The TF3D icon that pops up on startup? Schaps AdvancedConfig can stop that from showing on every boot.

Posted this elsewhere too under Touch Pro Themes - but as thats abot all Tab's thought I'd drop my "Home Screen here too, although I think the originator probably meant this for NON TF3D Today Screens?

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

Does anything like the opposite exist?
Im always a fan of bg4all, but for some tabs, id love to have a overlay bg (like seen when switching tabs) ontop of the set bg, in settings tab for example, i had to search quite a bit to find a background that has the text readable on all tabs.
Id also love to have background 'pages' behind text messages, like it does for emails

It's not possible. The png file that Sense uses as the shadow on tab previews is only 2x2 px so you can only have a transparent or opaque shadow in any color, but if you resize the image it's gonna cover the big tab icons with white boxes and there will be no shadow (I know, 'cause I tried).
The Start menu shadow is the same for all folders inside the Start Menu including Settings, so you can't have a different background everywhere. She shadow effect is actually made by two semi-transparent png files which overlap you Today background. They are both 800x480 and 480x800 px (for WVGA of course) so you can replace them with any image you like (transparent or opaque), just remember it's gonna cover your today wallpaper. So if'll put an opaque image you would pretty much do the same thing as changing the wallpaper is Today's Settings. But it makes sense to use semi-transparent images.
If you'd like to edit the slider shadow use WinCE Cab Manager to extract the files from transparent tab transitions.cab and use m9editor to convert the manila file to png. Then use Photoshop or any other transparency-supporting graphic software (not MS Paint obviously ). When your done convert the png file to manila format again using m9editor and copy the file to your device \Windows using Resco File Explorer or Total Commander. Overwrite the original.
Editing the Start Menu shadow is easier. Use WinCE Cab Manager to extract the png files from transparent start menu background.cab and edit them in Photoshop (or any other(...)). Then copy the files to \Windows (again, overwrite the originals).
Hope this will help some n00by designer.

Force dialer to default to favorites

Anyone know if there is a way to do this with stock app?
When i hit phone, it is annoying to always be on the dialer screen. Yes, I can speed dial a couple contacts, but I have a favorites list of 20 or so, and I would like to land there first.
Any ideas other then an alternate launcher? Would an alternate launcher even do this?

That was a nice feature of the iPhone. 99% of the time I am calling 1 of the people on my favorites list as well, this would be nice if it was possible.
I do not know if it is or not.

Would also appreciate this setting.

A work around that might be useful:
From your home screen find a screen that is fairly empty and long press like you are adding a widget. Select "Shortcuts" then select "Direct Dial" Choose someone from your contacts list. You now have a direct dial shortcut to that contact on your screen.

I actually did that. I even made my own icon that matched the Launcher Pro icons and added it to my dock. It direct dials my best friend.
{
"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"
}

Not a bad idea but not really a solution/work around for a shortcut to your top 10-20+ favorites.

I agree - not a good solution if you have many on a fav list. For a 2 or 3 I just use speed dial from the dialer.

Has anyone tried Dialer One?
(from the thread looking for an alternate dialer) I'm too new they don't trust me with linking to it.

Another possible alternative is to add a Folder Widget end select "Starred Contacts" from the list.

What app do you use to grab a screen shot?

Regarding Screen Cap:
If you are rooted there is a market app. Another way is to use the ddms.bat tool that is in the SDK - it launches the Dalvik Debug Monitor on your computer and this can do a screen cap (Menu - Device - Screen Cap)

no app when I took that. It was using the android sdk to do it. Guide on how to do it is found here: http://www.simplehelp.net/2009/07/21/how-to-take-screenshots-of-your-android-based-phone-from-windows/

Launcher Pro ( the paid version ) also has a favorites widget that will let you configure either full screen or 1x4.

Why not just use dialer one? You can do exactly this with dialer one + you can do so much more, like custom backgrounds and change all the text colors etc.

I just added the folder of starred contacts. Really nice, actually.

[Q] ThrottleLauncher JC NeoLight Modification Requestion?

I know I've never really made this big of a request before but hopefully someone can fulfill it!
Heres my current problem:
As you can see when I select any of the 3 tabs in question (Music, (People)/Contacts and (Pictures)/Images) nothing happens and it just stays on the previous tab, as well but unnoticeable when I click the lock button, nothing happens same when I click the red power button...
But I'd love to be able to have this fully working and keep the clock I'm using plus the option to add remove widgets... I'm using SenseFlipClock and maybe add english to it instead of whatever language it's in now that and maybe a notification row above the 4 buttoned row like this:
{
"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"
}
With or without the glossy black tabs and instead of the phone symbol make it a bold @ symbol for e-mails, making the envelope symbol open my text messages, the phone symbol below works already, so I see no sense in having two... As for this I was thinking make the gap between the two rows smaller and small notification boxes/buttons for E-mail, Voicemail and Text with numeric entries such as 2 for two text messages and so for each maybe even if possible e-mail being colored red numbers, voicemails colored blue numbers and text messages being colored green numbers.
The power button open psShutXP and the lock button windows default lock tool...
I'd be ever so grateful and willing to donate money to whoever if someone could mod this for me... I've tried fixing it myself but couldn't figure it and asked how to fix it at TL Forums and someone said to ask here I also couldn't find JC anywhere... Hopefully this isn't asking to much. Thanks

ThrottleLauncher Tab/Page Request
Is there anyway someone could tell me how to important those 3 working pages in from a normal TL TF Theme?
If that would work at all? The thing is those 3 tabs/pages all launch individual app's, I'd rather have one be like a normal contacts page, NOT TO LOAD THE CONTACT APP, then have music to have be an embedded page, or perhaps all 3 be widgets pages... With the 3 widgets pages, I could just load a nitrogen widget on one, then a photo viewer on the second one and a contacts widget on the third one.
But I can't figure out the transition to go through to do this...
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks
