Big Button Dialer - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

Has anybody created or found a dialer with big buttons? The buttons I have currently are about 1.5cm x 1cm. My fingers, which arent even that large, always press buttons other than the intended ones. This is mostly a problem with I'm driving. On top of that, I dont use the smartdialer, so it is just a waste of space. If someone could get ride of the smartdialer, and enlarge the bottons about 3 times, the dialer would be perfect!

yeah, ive seen all of those, but i want even biggger buttons. something to get rid of the smart dial completely. or even cooler would be buttons that take up the whole screen with the dialed numbers in the background. that would be great.

look at this:

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

What? Do you want to pan around the screen for the buttons?

There's no such dialer in this place. They cook Rom's and stuff but big buttons seem too difficult.

The red squiggles show where I think a clue could be placed to show there are more items in the list. It could be an arrow key or any standard method of indicating there are moe things out of view. The red and green arrows are just possible alternatives. The programs touch flo screen could do with the same as it is not OBVIUOS there are more items to be seen.
A nice silver triangle button that fades when there are no more items would be cool.
Some may ask why I suggest this interface usability tweak (in any format). Good question.

Hmmmm......after using TF3D or even READING THE MANUAL it is obvious that there are more items to display.....
Don´t need an arrow in e.g. the contacts application to remind me that there is more than just one page.......but then again, that´s just me.......
BTW: I´ve long turned off TF3D for a less funky but faster and more usable interface.....
But
RTFM and learning are not available to the people who are not 'lovers' of the technology.
They pick it up, look at it, and don't enquire..
Many business users are almost or over, half a century old.
They wouldn't see the value of XDA Developers, etc.

Has anyone found one? Could be nice to keyboad to match with everything else
Just a side note: Shape Writer is also available for WinMo and is incorporated in every app, rather than just one (as in the iPhone). Just go on Shape Writer's website.

i use Shape Writer for everything, its brilliant. Have a look in the Themes and Applications section, there is a thread called "SWYPE!!!" which discusses it on page 6, and has a download link.
I always use the standard WinMo keyboard. I check the big buttons options with the use of gestures in the settings , which make your buttons smaller again but you get an extra row of numbers on your keyboard. I often use these gestures and it's really handy.
I wish there was a way to make the buttons a bit bigger again so i could use my fingers to type, I wouldn't mind reserving half the screen for a good keyboard.
So is there a keyboard out there with the use of gestures but without for instance the enter/backspace/shift buttons and without the spacebar
But a del button would be nice though, theres no gesture for that...
Actually forget the keyboard, is there a way to add more gestures in the WinMo keyboard??? That would be awsome!
hey I was thinking about the same exact thing. There are a lot of keyboards out there but i dont think much people realise how "potentially" awesome the Winmo Keyboard actualy is. If only the keys can be enlarged a little bit. or if a pop up ability could be added this should make one of the best keyboards out there am sure.

MMS UI Change

Is it possible to change the UI on the MMS app so that I can add a button on the top left corner that will be linked to the conversation list. Its annoying to press 3 buttons just to go back to the conversation rather than have a link that's always there like the iphone's MMS app
Have you tried 3rd party apps like handcent, chomp sms, or Go SMS pro?
I'm not really sure what you mean, so I can't say whether these apps will do it or not.

I'm running EOS3 155
Hold down the power button and I think it was remove statusbar or something like that just beneath the power off button (I dont have my xoom because its in warranty) then the black bar down will be removed

thanks for the input, My problem was not the Status bar, but the control Ui being all squished up-top, i emailed someone else who had this issue, and he helped me out, basically Just told me to delete the game with all data related to it, and re-installed it again, now its all fixed.
:victory:
Im not sure but it looks like you have a phone version installed ????
You mean pirated version? LOL
Anyhow, tried settings? I believe this game you can move the controls around.

App keyboard is tiny not edge to edge

I have seen in several apps the Samsung keyboard is shrunk by almost half, not touching the sides of the screen, and it's like a miniature version of the keyboard. Does anyone else have this issue? Is it just an app developer thing that is conflicting with the new screen size?
One app I know is doing it Hearthstone

Turn off one handed mode. I use Gboard for its larger, more customizable keyboard.

That's not the fix.
This is the gaming mode keyboard. You need to go to Game Tools and turn the gaming keyboard off.
I searched settings for all things game, none have the keyboard option. I looked into the game launcher settings, and it wasn't there either.
It was a setting in game tools. It's called floating keyboard, and it was auto set to on. I had to open a game, go to the game tools icon on the nav bar, then go to "additional feature". The option was in there.
BTW: thanks for the help guys.
