Is there any way to manipulate the in-call screen? It puts up this tiny little picture and the rest is this weird blue/gray nothing. It seems as if it would be much better to have the picture much bigger, or include some additional contact information, or just better utilize the space.
Anybody know how to mod this?

Contact picture on incoming call
I found an answer here:
Samsung SGH-i200 - FAQ - 4PDA
Is it possible to increase the contact picture on incoming call by regular means, ie no extra software?

If you disable Samsung-style dialer the photo caller is displayed on the screen size.

In Registry change:
Code:

Our try "PHOTO CONTACTS PRO WM Smartphone Edition".

Thanks.
But, it doesn't seem to change anything. The phone still looks the same with incoming our outgoing calls.
Is there a template or something that I need to change? Is there a "skin" file that I can tweak?

Does anybody know what the .cpr file is for the in-call screen? That's all I'm looking for, and I'm striking out.

if i remember right its extcall.dll, dialog "MS_PHONE_CONTACTPICTURE" i've made some small attempts in the past but wasn't to driven to try to make it work. hopes this helps you.
or... you can give this a try, i can't tell you if it'll work for you or not.

Thanks.
It is a lot more complex than I thought. I've never edited .dll's before... and spending the last day or so trying to get it to work isn't taking me very far.
I might keep trying, but I think I need some assistance. Feel like a bull in a china shop right now, just feeling my way through and not very successfully.

I can't get it to work with my BJ2 either. Any other ideas?

alternative speed dial app

I've been getting more and more annoyed with the standard speed dial in wm5. You have to press on the the relatively small number to dial the contact, cause if you tap the name you go to the edit part. Besides that it just looks really dull and doesnt match any theme.
Does anyone know of an alternative app for this? Preferably something you can get or make skins for...
(I have searched google and this site for hours btw)
thanks,
Robert
not quite sure what you are refering to, do you mean you would like bigger numbers on the dial pad? if so do a search for the eten dialer.
Maybe you would prefer a photo dialer? there are plenty around.
Alternatively try searching for MS voice command it is so easy to use and that is the only way i 'dial' numbers.
No i mean the actual speed dial part. It kind of looks like this:
1. Voicemail
1233
2. John Smith
1234567890
etc.
What i find annoying is that you have to press on the speeddial number (so like 2. for john smith), instead of the name. If you tap the name it brings up the edit screen. Besides that it looks very dull (grey and white).
I see what you mean about a photo dialer, but i dont want to use up precious space on the today screen.
Therefore i was hoping there might be some other app around, preferably one you can customize with skins or something. I haven't been able to find anything so I guess there isn't?
Maybe i should try asking in the Development and Hacking forum? Maybe someone there can put something together? I cant imagine it would be too complicated? Or am i asking(expecting) too much?

This speed dial is the one I got in my E-ten, doesn't look great, though works beatifully!
I love to use this one in the car.
Couldn't find it in the extended dir but I could extract it and make you a cab if you like it.
if you could?
this looks promising

Which device is this for then?
Unfortunately this is for Wisebar Advance. It's not a MOD for the default dialer.
Works Great!
I installed the .cab. Works Great. I don't have Wisebar. Its cool.
I like it -- I Love it --- I want some more of it.
Thanks!
Cool Beans gonna test it.
It installed no problem on my HTC Touch. Remember do a soft reset after you install the .cab file.
Really nice Dial Pad:
Pros:
- Nice looking.
- Slightly bigger digit keys compared to the default dialer
- When a call is in progress the END key is nice and big. I like that!
- When in a call the Mute, Contacts, Hold Call, Mic Mute, Speaker ON and Notes are a lot bigger compared to the default dialer
Cons:
- No SmartDial
- The Incoming phone number and name of the person are still small. I wish developers would realize, I'd rather have the persons' name / phone number showing up in big font, rather than the "Incoming Call..." in big font. I'm using S2U2 to get a bigger Name and Phone number, but I'd rather have 1 app that included this.
- There's a shimmering effect (a la Vista theme) that goes from the top right of the screen through the 6, 9 and 0 digits. I wish you could get rid of this, I haven't found a way to do it. It's a minor gripe.

Disable TouchFLO messaging

I like 99.9% of the current TouchFLO setup, but the messaging is awful.
Is there a registry key I can hack to disable the frontend for SMS, so when I click a message on the home screen, it goes directly to that message in the stock WM app?
which touchflo is this?
It says version 3.0 (build 31807).
The thing I want to disable is this screen when I choose an individual message from the home screen. I'd like it to jump to that conversation in the WM stock client like it did in earlier versions of TouchFLO (like what the Fuze has stock).

I would like to disable it...
i dont want to disable it, but i would like to limit the number of sms it shows.... it work well on most of the contact, but when i want to see the sms from one of my friend take a lot of time to open....
is possible to limit the message to 5 or 10?
thanks!

Hi there
i also would like to have the old threaded style, like the one available on htc hd for example. What i don't like about the new one is that i can't select text or phone the a number included in the message body. I receive several messages like this " Please phone John 078 17......1 for laptop sreen replacement." On the HTC hd i would just click on the number and i would have the option to either call or save the number.
Also the new version lacks a bit of performance to load the conversation.
I have been searching for days and i couldn't find any existent solution. I believe there will no be registry key to be changed, and therefore will be necessary changing code in the tf3d. I wouldn't mind trying myself, but so far i couldn't find also a step by step to change the code.
Kind regards

WM6.5 Messages panel - what is the name? (Samsung Jack)

I flashed my Jack with WM 6.5 recently and loaded the Titanium panels. But I am not seeing an "all in one" panel for Missed calls, Email, Text, and Voicemail. Instead I have a panel for each one.
I checked out the list of apps/panels in the 3vo ROM's for the Excalibur and nothing seemed to be the panel I'm after.
See middle Screenshot at the bottom of first post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=523718
Or just below the Wifi panel in this SS.

Anyone know where I can find the stand alone installer? Or help narrow down the search terms? The results I am getting haven't helped find it yet.
I was able to find the info in the Titanium CPR file on the 3VO rom, so I copied that over to the file for my phone. It works!
I just can't find the icons though, I've got red x's on the condensed view and 2 of 4 icons in expanded have red x's. I've looked over the text a lot and I just can't find where they are pulling from.
Looking at the image keys in the registry I see the following:
Value Name: chNotification_cv_email
Value Data: 2003
I'm guessing that is pulling from a DLL, but I am stumped on where to find the name of the DLL so I can view the contents to pick new icons.
Have you tried checking with CHomeConfigurator? I have both the combined panel and the individual ones...

Is there a way to reorganize messaging items/get rid of a particular item e.g. voicemail?

I think you would have to edit the CPR file and comment out the items you don't want to use. If you're editing the CPR file, make a copy for safe keeping in case you mess it up.
Commenting an item out should be easy enough, you'll probably have to adjust the spacing afterwards to get things to appear neatly again.

Dialer Applications

Hey Everyone,
Just wondering what everyone is using as there Dialer??
The Stock one is quite sad considering that you have to click like a few times to call someone...
Is there a application out there that displays all your contacts and you just have to press once on the name to dial?? ( Not like MeContacts that only displays so many for speed dialing)
I was looking at Dialer one but can't seem to download it...seems discontinued or something...
Please give your preference and if you can, why you chose it.
Thank you all for your input.
Chad
check out superdial
There is 2 in the market place at the moment,
1 that is a paid version but says it's for chinese users but we can use it still and the 2nd one has bugs in it and isn't being continued?

me too looking for something like this , checked superdial, not so impressive though.
Check out Youlu. A number of Android sites have recommended it. I just installed it, and though it could use more options (such as disabling dial-sounds, and hiding of email-only contacts), it looks nice.
wow this is actually better than atakephone, i kinda regret paying for it now!
I always had hard time searching contacts to dial.
I used modified acontacts on my donuts. But im now using Dialer One.
It have call log, dialer. contacts at once. easy to use. and its Free
Try it

Going to try Youlu and Dialer one out right now and see which one I like better!
Another vote for Superdial. I've been using it for a few months now, can't live without it. It's definitely one of the best dialers out there.
My main concern is having quick and easy access to contacts without having to click through 17 menus to get to them. I simply start spelling the name of the contact and it appears, tap their name and it's calling. Takes a mere 2 seconds before I'm calling the person I want.
