Disabling/enabling MS smartdial

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.)

LED Changer

Dont know if this should go in applications section?but.......
NoSignalAlert can use the led to blink blue, I personally cant find an app anywere that you can change the colour of the led for different things like with nueled for windows mobile.Tis app was able o set led for signal and notifications to certain colours.
When i was searching i found something called ubercolourpicker but i dont think it works. Any help is much appreciated

I believe there is an ap in the market called "Spare Parts" that will alow you to change the LED color based on notification...
**EDIT** Upon looking its not Spare Parts that does it. (thought it hat alot of good settings) I use an app called missed call, Sets up different notification services, and allows you to choose the color.

Is that only for missed call alerts? Ideally i'd like to set the blue light constantly when i have a signal, With No signal alert it only does this for 10 secs

The missed call app has severial different services, missed call, sms, BT; but I don't believe it has one especially for signal....

Thanks, Exactly what i need (minus signal notification)

security lock dialer??? different text keypads

i was wondering if someone could make a decent dialer for when ur in security lock mode that would be awesome. and also maybe differnt styles of keyboards for texting. i hated iphones text board so i switch it to a blackberry storm keypad and thought maybe it would be cool to have alternative key pad

Widget Locker Question

So i had a couple questions on widget locker. i searched for about 25 min, but couldnt fine the exact answer i was looking for.
1. Why is it that the sense ui slider is lower in widget locker than it should be? is there anyway i can get it to be in the same place it normally is?
2. How can i get incoming calls to go through the stock htc sense slider? because when the phone is locked, it just goes straight to the answer/decline buttons when receiving a call, as if the phone is already unlocked.
thanks!

#1 the dev said he was going to implement the ability to move sliders and resize widgets.
#2 ? I don't know
hope that helps...

It will go to the slider if the screen is off. I use widget locker and get the sense slider if I get a call with the screen off

really? on my phone it doesnt do that

Just use your home or back button to unlock the phone and then you don't have to worry about it. It gives you lot's more room on your screen for other goodies.

I dont have a issue with the lock screens when i recieve a phone call either.. maybe try going into advanced settings and enabling the "5 second rule". or i think I remember a setting in there about " show during phone call ".
As for slider location there are two, under "look and feel" "slider layout" or something like that you will see a list of sliders to choose from. by default its on "widget locker" which is enclair's slider but all the way on the bottom, if you scroll down the list you will see something like "standard android" or "enclair" my phone is dead or i'd look but play with the sliders you will find the enclair slider in the proper location
hope this helps

From Widgetlocker tool mode check out menu > settings > popups > hide incoming call

i tried all that, i think the problem was the phone was just not going to sleep due to widget locker, so when i'd call it would act as if it was awake and not require unlocking. thanks for the help! still wish i could move the sense slider bar to where it should be though

#2
Had this same problem, had to stop using widget locker until dev comes with new update

which notification to turn off

Certain notification pop-ups appear that I can't figure out where to turn them off. One example is each time my phone pairs with my Gear S2 watch (e.g. I walk out of BT range and then come back), another is a 'finding location' popup because I set smart lock to keep the phone unlocked when I'm at home.
Anyone know which notification to turn off for these service-level items?
Bonus round: I read in either the manual or a review that double-tapping a popup notification on the lock screen should launch the app. I took that to mean that since I have smart lock active it should just go to the app, however I'm still forced to swype the screen; double-tap on the pop-up notification doesn't do it. Are my expectations wrong or do I need to tweak yet another setting?
Sorry for all the questions. I just came from being on pure stock Android for several years and Samsung has added all their own settings layer which makes it a little confusing as I'm switching phones.
