How do you disable the MS smart dial function (not the HTC one, that's simple)?
I'm working with the raw AT&T rom (hard reset w/ soft reset before customization/AT&T crapware installations) with a few simple cab installs (HTC home primarily), KaiserTweak, and the HTC black theme to complement Touchpal (slick UI, man). I turned off the HTC smart dialer. I wanted the dialer skin to have the WM button styles but for the color scheme to fit HTC black. So I went into HKLM/Security/Phone/Skin "Enabled" and set value to 0 and soft reset. The dialer turned out grey and silver and perfect, except for the big white, nasty MS smart dialer window. So I go back into KaiserTweak and it shows that I've set the MS smart dialer to active (instead of the HTC dialer). But I didn't. So I reset it back to the HTC smart dialer and soft reset. Now my dial pad is all ugly blue/green. So I redo the registry skin change and it's silver again, but the WM smart dialer is back. I can't get this darn thing to go away. I've checked the forums and all I can find are posts relating to installing the Touch dialer w/ smart dialer active, but no specific registry keys that control the MS smart dialer. I'm sure this is simple, and I manually scanned the registry for it, but I'm suffering from a bout of stupidity. Help?

Patience, my friend - Rome wasn't built in a day. Someone will have some ideas. I too would like to know the answer to this question, so I will continue to research on my own, and check this thread every day or two to see what develops.
When you press call (Green) key and dial pad opens press Menu - Smart dialing Options
and uncheck Enable Smart Dialing
Still nothing on this!
I'd like to be able to do this too. I'm using Celedial with WM6, and it works well enough, but it does lose focus from time to time when the built-in MS SmartDialer steals focus.
(When I choose Menu->Smart Dialing Options from within cprog.exe, nothing happens, however before I played with the registry, the option within that section was disabled anyway. I think that relates to the HTC Smart Dialer anyway.)
Playing with my new phone I've noticed an annoying bug with my pro. I'm posting this bug here since it is probably specific to the pro's slide-out keyboard feature. I want to mention the bug to HTC, Microsoft or developers and was wondering where you guys think it is most appropriate. The layout of the problem on my NoDo Chevron unlocked using this method is this:
Bug for text messaging in keyboard slid out mode
If I am in another application or just at the homescreen with the keyboard already slid out and I receive a toast notifaction of a new text message when I press the toast notification the cursor is not flashing in the send a new text message box, why would have the keyboard slid out if I'm not prepared to use it? This is annoying and is reminiscent of old WM problems.
A similar problem occurs if I am just at the home screen with the keyboard slid out and I receive a new message. This time I do not press the toast notification and instead click the messaging tile. When I hit the messaging tile after it shows '1' while still in keyboard slid out mode I again do not see the cursor blinking in the reply text box. Again this is annoying and hinders efficiency.
I'm sure both of these related issues are easily fixed, I don't know if this is Microsoft's or HTC's obligation to fix but I would like some sort of solution. While I'd like it to be an official solution I'd be more than happy to use a developer's fix .
Does this piss anyone else off?
Where should I send this bug to, or should I just send it to every party that is able to help?
I'm confused as to whether the onus is on Microsoft to fix the bug or HTC.
Several input bugs I've found, maybe if this annoys anyone else some clever dev can fix them as they don't seem that major.
I'm on an HTC 7 Pro with the 7392 update.
I appreciate that WP7 autocorrects certain contractions. However, WP7 only corrects im to I'm when it is at the beginning of a sentence. If I type im on my hardware keyboard mid sentence it does not turn into I'm. Can this be fixed by a a dev or do I need to complain to Microsoft and HTC. I also don't know if this bug is specific to my HTC 7 Pro or to all WP7 phones. In the HTC 7 Pro forum somebody mentioned this bug isn't present in his Arrive.

This is annoying and is reminiscent of old WM problems. Obviously if I have the keyboard open and I begin typing it should automatically go in the text box.

I'm typing this on my focus and I'm not using contraction symbols in the first or second I'm. Must be a slide out keyboard specific issue

Thanks for the confirmation, guess I need someone with a slide-out keyboard who it bothers enough to fix these issues since I have no clue heh.
No problem. Glad I could help.

I would like to change the slide to answer/decline call to something like tap/click to answer. Sliding drives me crazy because i have small hands and it is hard for me to slide rather than just tap. I just changed my Iphone4 to HTC One, on iOS I have had a mod called EZDecline which forced the stock system red decline and green answer button on every screen and it was good.
On HTC though, on the lockscreen there are slides - how to get rid of them without disabling lockscreen ?
I have TrickDroid v8 and Nova Launcher.
Really anyone did not change or mod that ?
I'm wondering if someone can answer a question I have about my DZ-09 Bluetooth Smart WristWatch Phone. When I turn it on it has the 'oval' blue clock dial. I would like to change that 'oval' blue (clock) dial to another one. I had a better one previously but don't know why I have not gotten this over blue one (that I can hardly read). I went to settings, etc., but can't see how to change the (opening) clock blue dial face.
