Phone Dialer Skin?

Is it possible to skin the default phone dialer? I have trouble dialing with my thumb so I am wishing I can make the buttons bigger.

Check out SmartDial + Eten dialskin.
I like the Dr.Shultz skin on page 7.
Make sure to explore your device with Activesync. Go to \Windows and rename Mfc80u.dll to anything (like Mfc80u.dll.old) to fix the Pictures and Video issue.
Good luck!

Check out http://www.paulya.com/etenskins.htm he's got some nice skins for the Eten Dialer (not Default dialer)...
I'm using the 44TI. In the past I used one of his themes and had the matching dialer... i think its the vista grass b theme with the vista trans origin dialer skin

Thank you everyone, ETen is exactly what I was looking for.

Black Dialer for the ATT Tilt stock ROM?

Hi,
Searched the forums but can't find this-
Looking for a black dialer skin for my Tilt-not a HTC one,and not a customized one(with different fonts for the buttons/or buttons), just the same dialpad as the ATT stock ROM, but in black.
Any help?
Alemaker

Registry:
HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin
"Enabled" = 0
This turns off the stupid AT&T Blue Dialer Skin.
You must reset your device before the skin change will happen.

This registry tweak also disables the HTC SmartDialer program. Is there a way to have your cake and eat it, too?

Solved-sort of
got one REAL close to basic black!!
SpbBlack47_DialerSkin
background has greyish marble-like veins-cool!!
Doesn't disable smartdialer either!
attached a pic and the cab!!!
woohoo!!

These skins work with the Smart Dialer
http://www.zombienexus.net/portal/GL_Display.asp?SEC=3&EntryID=512
They've got bigger buttons (not as big as Touch Dialer), and they're available in a bunch of colors.

I'm going to try to reverse Engineer the ETEN Dialer and skins that PaulyA was working on. Hardest part should be creating the Photoshop template.
Speaking of which, now that ETEN has released their new WM6 phones, anyone ripped the dialer prog from them yet? Would be nice to see if they updated it for WM6.

how do you make the text white? i installed the supplied cab on my tilt and the text is yellow.

Alemaker-
Great look on that dialer. Very oem!

Black Dialer...
I went and created my own, but now that I've seen the SpbBlack47 one, I'm going to make some modifications to it. Here's the Black Screen I plan on using. Let me know if you'd like it.

Be careful with goestoeleven's advice. According to the zombienexus website: "Saturday November 17 2007 update: Note: Newer HTC models (HTC Tytn II / Kaiser and HTC Touch) have their own custom dialpads, these skins aren't suitable for them. Do not install! You might have to hard reset if you cannot remove these skins via remove in settings." (http://www.zombienexus.net/portal/page_display.asp?pid=3) I have seen people on other forums report serious problems with these dialpads/skins on their Tilts.

What is the best dialer for the Tilt

Not really happy with the dialer that comes with the phone from at&t, and was just wondering if there were any better dialers out there for our phone.(have picture dialer shortcut, and one on HTC home, not really looking for a picture dialer, more for one where i would actually touch in the numbers on screen).
tnx.

I'm using whatever dialer Dutty's ROM comes with. It's pretty, it's fast, I like it so far.

Are they any stand-alone available?

You should try (before changing ROM) just to disable the skin
Use a registry editor, and navigate to [HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin]
set "Enabled" to "0"
The default Windows dialer is perfect IMHO

i can have one created for u, with a pic, for potrait and landscape

Change Dial Pad Revisit

OK so now I have the htc touch 6 tab worling well theme looks nice change icons looks really well, Now how in the heck can we change the ugly dialpad in treo 750, I know about the registry settings , but does not work in wm6. Does anyone know how to change the dialpad either to the htc or even the standard wm6 instead of the treo one. I will even take the location of the dialpad graphic file so I can change my self.

Search the forum. NOT upgrade forum. It was described (way with disabling some plugins - ActiveCall if I remember good)...

I found it, woo hoo: I used this one: http://discussion.treocentral.com/showthread.php?t=148000
It works perfectly. Now does anyone have an htc home dialpad skin that works on our phones?

Thanks for the post fleadog99, just followed the instructions and now I have a dial skin that I can live with.

does anyone know how we can change the skin? like an HTC like skin. All skins I have tried it only changes background but not the buttons or anything else.

Need help with phone canvas

I use Matt_Jacksons blue theme and the new slide to answer phone canvas with the nice edition to cover the keys while in call.
However, Matt's theme came with a "kinda default" dialer and I would like to go back to the black on white original dialer to place calls.
Is there any way to do so by just replacing files?
I'm aware that the dialer in particular can be a very nasty animal... (been there done that on my Tilt).
I already tried to install PdG's VGA dialer hoping that after removal the original dialer comes back ... but .. guess you figured .. it didn't...
See my current dialer attached.
Edit: AFAIK the dialer is anyway skinable so an extract of the HTC dialer skin in VGA resolution would do, too. I have a Fuze so don't need video call.
Edit:
Cause closed showaco extracted two bmp files from the HTC dialer. Replaced them in the Windows dir... done. Thanks showaco!
