Dialler that selects contact from last-dialled list first - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

Dear all,
In the Wizard I had a dialler which selected the contact from the last dialled list first. I could highlight that contact and select the persons mobile number, home number, etc. by using the right and left navigation buttons.
Does anyone know whether this dial-pad exists for the Kaiser?
Regards,
Nika.

I use the default WM6 dialer, which does this (and imo looks better than HTC's).
To do this you must set HKLM/Security/Phone/Skin/Enabled to 0 (i hope i got the right reg key, if not, let me know) and soft-reset
WARNING: you will not be able to dial / answer voice calls with this dialer (i don't care about this)

You mean camera-based-calls?
And yes, that's the dialler, even though I'd add the bigbutton skin (I think called eten?) to it...

Sorry, i meant "VIDEO" calls, sorry

Yeah, that's the dialler I meant! And now with the big buttons it would be perfect... Attached is what I used on the Wizard, but on the Kaiser it messes up the buttons. Anyone who knows how to convert/create a dialler for the Kaiser?

Btw, here's the post for the Wizard I got this dialler from:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=297530

hmmm, did you try to get to the default dialer and AFTER THAT installing yours ?

Yes, the default dialler works fine. And then, after installing the wm6 grey dialler it doesn't work anymore...too bad, I would have like to have a big-button dialler with the WM6 smart-dialling features...

i don't think you can have the default smartdialing AND a theme. i think you can have some other smart dialing with a theme, but not the default one

Well... on the wizard it did work - see the post about the big button skin with smart-dialling:

open touch 2.4 and bluetooth profile problem (resolved)

I installed open touch 2.4 and LOVE IT.. it makes windows mobile so much useful..
one thing i found problamatic was the bluetooth profile. The problem is when I press the call button on my bluetooth headset it doesn't trigger the voice speed dial. It just launches the dialler which shows the keypad.
That kind of defeats the purpose of 'hands free' if I need to press the voice speed dial on the phone and then use the headset.
Any solution ? Or any other package I can install to get the full functionality of voice speed dial with bluetooth.
I have the same problem, and it effects the ability for me to use MS Voice Command. I wish someone would help, but I made a post about this and got no replies.

guys,
I'm working on v2.5 and will try to resolve this issue if possible.
I need more details as to what is happening.
Also,
I did not see any of this nature posted in the original v2.2 post.
Who else is having this issue?

Just to cover all basis, did you setup the button 5 options?
Remember that I left the 5th button free for people to choose either voice record or voice speed dial.
Going forward, please do not create new post, instead post your issues in the original thread.
Thanks,
I'm pretty sure that what your dealing with is a registry problem. When i switched to touchit 2.3 i had to reconfig to the following:
1 Use registry editor to edit the following entries on your Wing:
Under: \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Bluetooth\A udioGateway\, Modify Value data: OEMAGEX.dll to BTAGExtModule.dll
Under: \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\VoiceCommand\, Add DWord Value: LaunchAPEnable, Value Data: 1
Under: \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\VoiceCommand\, Add DWord Value: VoiceCmdEnable",Value Data: 0
2. Wait about 30 sec, then soft-reset
Try it and let me know how it goes. I dont get credit for this it is from a previous post. This did work for me tho. I can prompt the voice speed dial from the bluetooth.

Thanks ttran for responding. I have great respect for you for putting together this great ROM.
The issue is..
I am pairing my bluetooth headset (motorola h850) with the phone. After paring, if I press the call button on my bluetooth, it is supposed to invoke the voice dial app in the phone and call the voice tag I spoke. However it just brings the phone dialler screen and does nothing.
My diagnosis
For an incoming call (when paired), I can pickup the call using bluetooth headphone's button. So I know bluetooth instrument is working.
Secondly when I directly invoke voice speed dial from phone (i mapped a hardware button to voice speed dial) it works fine too.
Only problem is I can not invoke voice speed dial from bluetooth headset.
Do not confuse this issue with the hardware button mapping since I am trying to invoke voice speed dial from bluetooth headset (not from hardware button on phone. that works fine)
Please let me know if you need any futher information. I will happy to provide any additional details.
BTW thanks again for putting together such a great ROM.
Hi,
Thanks for clearing that up.
Please try what mrmikemcguire posted:
1 Use registry editor to edit the following entries on your Wing:

Under: \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\VoiceCommand\, Add DWord Value: VoiceCmdEnable",Value Data: 0
2. Wait about 30 sec, then soft-reset
And let us know if it works for you, I don't use blue tooth so I can not test it for you.
Also,
Let me know if it fixes your issue so that I can add it to the next release.
Thanks folks,
sorry didn't work for me..
Ok.... First, thank you mrmikemiguire . Now hoolahoous .. did we make progress? The Audio gateway should be opening now... Verify that the registry modifications are correct in your device, then power cycle..... there may be another piece to the puzzle but those changes should work.
Edit: Final piece... Verify HKLM,"SOFTWARE\OEM\VoiceCommand "Path" = \Windows\SDDialer.exe
Okay.. thanks for everyone's help.. I finally got it to work... One thing incorrect in above settings was
\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Bluetooth\A udioGateway\, Modify Value data: OEMAGEX.dll to BTAGExtModule.dll
the default entry was VCBTHAG.DLL not OEMAGEX.dll , I missed that..
however when I changed VCBTHAG.DLL to BTAGExtModule.dll , it started working..
ttran001, maybe you can include these entries in 2.5.
I know you are not planning to include voice speed dial or voice command in 2.5, I personally feel that you should include atleast one of them. My vote would be voice speed dial since it works for everyone but voice command works only for subset of people. When I say work, I mean software being able to recognize what a person is saying.
but thanks to everyone including mrmikemcguire to get it to work for me.

Hi,
That reg fix has been added to v2.5 and yes Voice speed dial is included but not voice command since it takes about 4mb of space.

Either way thanks for providing feed back so to help resolve this issue.
I am using 2.5 slim and cannot get audio from realplayer, skype, etc.
I push the button and all I get is some wrong application, try again later errors....
Please help.
It all worked perfectly with the Clean ROM so may be someone with know-how can look at the registry differences between them and tell me if this is fixable, or i have to install the clean again...
Thank You!

Function for Contacts is now video call after official rom upgrade ... HELP !!!

Hey Folks
I upgraded to the official Hong Kong ROM upgrade on my HTC Diamond & whilst impressed by the speed improvements I have a major bug that annoys the hell out of me & thus hope some genius reading this can help fix the problem
On the home tab using the "phone" icon it then shows recent calls. However the left hand button that used to show "contacts" now shows "video call". I never want to make a video call & contacts is far more useful .... but there is no obvious way to change the function
Hoping someone can help
Chill dude.
This ain't a bug, it's a feature.
Personally, I do find video-call usefull, but ill prefer "send SMS"
Do U really need contacts? You can use the keypad T9 to find the person U want to call easily...
Circle your finger around the middle button and it rips thru contacts!

Use your favorite registry editor to navigate to [HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila] and change the following values:
"HomeLSKPath=addrbook.lnk" 'that's the application you want to use
"HomeLSKText=Contacts" 'that's the text that will be displayed on the left soft key on your Home screen
Do a soft reset.
Now your Left Soft Key will display Contacts, so when you press it, you shoul go directly to your contacts. Enjoy!
I've changed mine to Comm Manager.

I don't have a clue how to change softkeys within the phone app, sorry. Looks like I have misread the original post...
Thanks Heretic & others
Yep ... me & 1000 others want to change the key in the phone app
With CT's rom version 4 if I tap Phone soft key on Today screen then tap the little phone icon between the video call and menu softkeys it removes the keypad and leaves me with last call and contacts list...
No ideas anyone .... it is really bugging me
For me i just disabled the phone skin with the Advanced Config tool. It reverts back to the old WM6 design. I still prefer that. Do note that once u do this, the vibration when a call connects is disabled.
Hey KGB-Agent, I have exactly the same problem...and it is bugging me as well! I upgraded my dutch ROM yesterday :-( Another problem I have is that when I look at my contacts the SIM contacts are not displayed, even when I configure this in Advanced Config Tool...HELP! Anyone else an idea how to fix???
Your contacts are opened when your in the phone app, just scroll! why do you want it to open another contacts process when its already there?!? up and down or as i already said circle the middle button with your finger
Hi Blaze,
Circling with my finger in the middle button doesn't work for me. Furthermore, with "Contacts" I could quickly scroll down with the Alphabet on the right to f.e. the letter Z. The way you recommand it takes me ages to get to the "Z"!
I called the HTC helpdesk, they advised me to do a Hard Reset. Of course...that didn't work...:-(
Go to start and choose contacts its the same screen.
I agree the videocall is a bad choice from the makers of this rom.
Most people do not use this kind of calls.
Grtzzz
I have the same issues with the loss of functionality Ries
I cant believe there are not more complaints
I emailed HTC 4 days ago with no answer :<
@kgb-agent: I phoned the helpdesk. They said I had to do a hard-reset!?! I couldn't believe it, but okay, I tried it...and what do you think: I still have the problem! :-( I guess we have to live with it...bad choice from the developers...
same problem
up
Two things:
1) why don't people use the smart dialling feature? this is where when in the phone keypad, you just spell out your contact using the alphanumeric keypad (it uses T9 to search) and it displays your search results in real time at the top of the dial pad... MUCH easier than the contacts screen - try it.
2) circling the middle button with your finger does NOT work for me, i have no idea how that is working for you since the diamond is not meant to be able to scroll using that 'wheel' unless you have installed some 3rd party software for it, or its unique to your ROM/region.

Kaiser junkie

I love my Kaiser, I will not trade it in for a Fuze. I am however set back with questions unanswered. I'll enlighten you.....
1) I have been using an app called "Where is My Phone". I love this app. There is a certain feature I am quite curious about that acts as a macro. When you SMS the phone with a certain command as the text, it triggers a macro to work. This is very interesting to me. I am aware that there is a program running in the background to check for such a text request, but my question is, are there other programs out there that will let you run your own macros on such a text requests???
2) I am also running the Inesoft program on my phone. I absolutely love the dialer, however, once the dialer has been used and a call is placed, the default dialer pops up... very sad since I havn't been able to find a dialer skin that I like. (yes, I have searched everywhere and found them all) Is there a way to set the inesoft dialer as the default dialer on my Kaiser? This would be very useful, because I cant just tap and hold the "1" button on my inesoft dialer to activate retrieving my phones voicemail messages.
This forum is my lifeline to the outside world when it comes to my Phone and i thank you all in advance.
uhm as for your first question, I'm not too sure if I can answer it. I do use an app called mobliza that runs in the background. it's basically like an away message program for SMS. it also has a feature that allows it to carry on a conversation with people who text you. go to tiltmobility.com to find the download.
as for your second question, I don't think there is any way to make it your default dialer unless it's cooked into a ROM.
actually, my first question looks confusing... what i want to do is get my phone to perform actions when i sms it. if you look at "where is my phone", its an app that sends you the gps coords, with a google maps hyperlink of your cell phones location when you send it a certain text.
As for part 2, I guess Ill just cross my fingers and hope someone cooks up a rom. thats the best dialer skin ive seen. finger friendly, big, plain, simple.....

I do not think xda allows roms with commercial software in the forums, as this would be considered warez, unless they just include the shareware version, which would be useless as it requires you to purchase after trial period. Maybe you can download a kitchen and integrate the software into your rom, shouldn't be that difficult.
You could provide the software to the chef of your favorite rom and ask him kindly to brew it in for you. As long as the software are fully available for download its no problem adding it to any rom. Reason why its not done are that people have to buy to fully take advantage of the software and no chef is going to force something like that on you. There has been payware on certain rom from some of the most known chef`s in here, but its very rare and if so its because the software been brand new or killing good.
The thought of brew this in case the device is stolen by someone are good. Cause if the thief are not an advance user chance of getting it back are good even after a hard reset
I used to use inesoft address book and if I can remember correctly, there is a setting where you can make the dialer and history the default.

yup, i think i came across that program, where you text your mobile with predefined commands and when your cell picks it up it runs the application or script. One thing i forgot the name, but i think its freeware, if my poor memory serves me right. Damn, anyway it stays on your homescreen, just a small icon on the lower part.
The developers also programmed the location based application launcher based on what cell radio tower you are on.

TOUCHFLO3D Caller ID screen

Hello,
Can anyone help me with the following situation:
I have a TD2 with the TF3D. Recently I installed the beta 5 version of Inesoft Phone 5.0 software.
It seems to be working everything ok, but I don’t like the Caller ID Skins that come with it, so I disable that program extension. The original one, that I think it’s from TF3D, is better.
My problem is that by disabling that option on Inesoft Phone, the Caller ID screen of TF3D doesn’t appear any more. When I receive an incoming caller it only appears that small balloon from WM6, with the picture and the name of the caller!
Does anyone know how can I restore Caller ID screen of TF3D?
Best regards
PS: sorry my poor English
In registry go to:
"HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin" and there:
key "Enabled" must be "1"
delete key "Ext"
delete key "PrevExt"
key "PrevEnabled" must be "0"
Thank you for your help.
I did like you said but the problem persists: when someone calls me, it only appears that ugly (in my opinion) WM balloon! The original TF3D caller ID screen doesn’t appear any more!
Any other idea?
Thanks
After Hard Reset, the registry for this was:
"HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin"
key "Enabled" is "1"
key "Ext" is"\windows\phcanhtc.dll"
"PrevExt" doesn't exist
"PrevEnabled" doesn't exist
Had the same problem; also found that the TF3D Favourites couldn't be called. Anyway, I installed the following which is the same as the original dialer & for the past week it's worked fine -

Cannot type to search names in contact

Hi All,
Recently I flashed my Diamond2 to the latest ROM from official HTC website. (ROM 2.53...)
I found out that if I want to search for names in contact (All People) the keyboard available only for numbers. I couldn't key in alphabet characters to spell names. Is this how it should be or is it bug? Please help. Thanks.
I know that on the default SIP, it knows when numeric values are the default, however to search contacts it should still allow Alpha characters.
Maybe try a different SIP.

what is SIP? AND where can i get other/different SIP? Thanks
SIP is Soft Input panel. or your onscreen keyboard.
There are free ones such as Finger Keyboard avail here on XDA, or pay apps such as Touchpal, Zoomboard, Rescoe Keyboard, etc.
Keyboard issue still not resolved

Thanks bruce. Really appreciate your help. I've installed finger keyboard 2.1 yesterday, but it makes my td2 hang .today i've uninstalled it, no more hang, but my first problem still not resolved. also, i found out when using phone keypad mode, some of the keys not working/not woking well. how to fix this problem? please help. thanks
So, nobody here can help me?...
Have you tried to change the SIP to Alpha when numeric appears? or select a different default input panel?
There's no option to change to Alpha or other input. Please take note, this only happen when i want to search contact (by pressing magnifier button).
to get names workin
i use swype and i have to delete at least one letter out of the name i want and it brings the contacts up to choose from.
give it a try! let me know if it works ion the other keyboards as well.
