I'd like to make my TyTN II look a little bit like the new blackberry storm. I like the transparent style buttons on it.
Also, I would like to know how I can get (big) buttons on the main page. I really don't like to constantly take out the stylus and vbrows through many levels of menus before I can send a text message...
Another question: I can get the iphone dial pad, which has been around for a while now. I liek it, but half the buttons doesn't do anything. How can I assign an action to each of the buttons?
Here is a link that has a large start/title bar cab file http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=344544&highlight=large+start+menu+title
Hope this helps
-John
Also, I forgot to mention this but you should use the search because I found those cabs within a few results of the search engine

I'm looking for larger dialpad buttons? I've seen a lot of crap all over the place which is more of a piece together and there is always SOMEONE posting with bad news... such as "can't uninstall it" or "smart dial doesn't work" etc...
Is there a fully functioning (even if I have to pay money) keypad (dial screen buttons) with big buttons on it?
Thanks in advance!
try netcom smart dialer 2.5 - not free
There is another called reTOUCHed_Dialer2. This has much bigger buttons and easier than the built-in layout.
I am hoping somebody will have one with a different skin, though. The straight black keys are not my thing.

The reTOUCHed Dialer can be "skinned" (and I've seen a few). If you look at Dutty's planned no. 7 rom that dialer will be in it, and it will have blue/green buttons. I think Schaps' has it with purple.
Basically the dialer mainly consists of graphics for the backgrounds and buttons. You just need to edit all of them in an grapics program and you can modify it to how you want it.
Here's the cab for the standard Touch looking one.
Hi all,
I recently added a battery bar program called Batti2.1. It is a really great program and i like it a lot. There is, however, one small bug...
When using the program it remaps the Calendar soft key to "Notification". Rather it does not remap it but always displays the "Notification" word. I guess this is so because it gives me a setting asking me if i want the battery indicator in the top bar (which is what i want). When i click on the notification icon it gives me detail about the battery etc. When i am done and click on hide, it goes back to saying "Notification".
When i recieve an sms or missed call, it then resets the soft key back to the original "Calender" and does not come up with the "Notification" key i usually get when i have a missed call or sms notification.
Is there a registry setting to disable the batti program's notification icon or am i stuck with this for good (so long as i have the program installed)??
Has anybody else used this program? Had this same problem? It is a really good piece of software and does not affect anything else.
Can anybody help please. I have included screenshots and attached the batti file incase anyone is interested in looking at this useful program.
yep...that happens...i remember when i used that program...get...um...damn i cant remember the name of the program i used..

Wow... that is annoying. Nice program, but I see your dilemma.
Whenever there's a notification (such as wi-fi detected), the left soft key is remapped to it. PocketPlayer does that on mine. I don't mind because I can use the today screen plugin to access the calendar.
Use VistaHide battery gauge instead.
Thanks to those who replied.
Tinkering around with the program i discovered a solution. In settings option set the following settings:
<PLEASE SEE IMAGE CAPTURE NUMBER 3 IN THE ATTACHMENTS>
I then click ok and hide the diolog box (hide button). The notifiaction and icon on the top bar are gone. However, there is a small bar right on the top of the top bar with graduations along it. This is the battery bar and each graduation represents 5%. When you tap this bar once, the notification box comes up and displays all the info. When you tap on hide, it all goes away. No more remapping.
Thanks to those who tried to help out.
batti 2.4 is out but the sounds portion doesnt work on the touch pro ... plays the sounds at random rimes
http://code.google.com/p/batti/
very nice work...
perfect for my touch pro.. i didn't check the sounds part, but i'm not interested right now..
i'd like to have a button in programs tab to open the view information page... can someone give me some help?
respect!
I've looked around and I didn't see anything except references to WM 7 might have something like this, but it occurred to me today as I glared at the big ugly scrollbar on my Today screen that it'd be nice if there was a semi-transparent and/or floating toolbar which would let the text flow under it, be readable, yet still usable to scroll down.
Is there anything that can do this? I've seen some different looking scrollbars around, such as one that looked like this <---->, but it was pretty low-profile and such, but it wasn't floating, but I'd still like to know about anything that makes the scrollbar less ugly.
Thanks!
Maybe less items on the today screen?

Yeah, that'd help for that, but there are other places where it'd be nice to have less obtrusive scrollbars.
I've tried several things for the today screen.. I didn't much like either SBP option (Shell or Pocket Plus) but at least they let you put different things on tabs. I like HTC Home + HHC but it takes up lots of room.
I'm still experimenting a bit, but this is more of an overall query, not specific to the today screen, although that's one place that'd definately benefit from it.
It's much more of a better idea if you don't put your scroll bar in your today screen...what I mean is not to put too much information in your today screen.
This program from VJ helps a little, removes the soft keys from the bottom of the Today screen:

Is there any way to change the title bar into a small thin one like the iphone (or the one that appears when you have your phone on keylock with the s2u2 software?
I don't want to use the iFonz program b/c I don't want the iPhone interface so no flaming. I just want the pure black THIN title bar.
I figured the title bar is almost useless and just takes up useless space.
I use UltraLaunch to access everything including task manager and always the soft button to access start menu.
anybody have an idea? I guess it's not popular enough. I searched everywhere and can't find anything close.

YES I REALLY WANT THIS TOO !
yes one person wants it! anybody else? maybe there can be enough people who want it to prompt developers. I am sure it can easily be created to work just like the "dcinobar" cab. Just don't ask me to do it cause I don't know much.
Maybe a way to alter one of the registry settings via resco? ::shrugs::
i'd be somewhat interested as well...added screen real estate is always a plus
looks like theres not much interest. I tried installing rinko's iconbar which is the closest to getting rid of the title bar by making it transparent; someone said it would work wit our phones, but after doing everything that rinko said to do, it didn't come out. Maybe you guys can try it and have better luck
You could try WisBar Desktop.... idk if this helps or not

I second using Wisbar.
Check the different versions to see if one of them fits your needs.
Then look in the forums at the "VOID" skin.
Hey folks,
I'm very, very new to installing new software on my HTC TD2, but I've been browsing a bit around on the web. Looking for a keyboard that actually works with my fingers. I really dislike those QWERTY keyboards, I simply want a 0-9 keyboard with buttons filling up like 50%+ of the screen, like some samsungs have! I just wanna be able to type while I'm walking and such, not always having to depend on my stylus,
I hope you people get what I mean and that someone could help me out

I crappy image which I've made with paint + touchpad, so don't mind the quality. Just to give an example
Thanks in advance people!
When typing, press the little arrow next to the keyboard icon at the bottom of your screen. Press phonepad
Hi!
Is it possible to install and use the original WM6.5 keyboard and input methods in conjunction with the EzInput 2.1 keyboards from HTC? Now the SIP selector only shows the HTC keyboards.
BTW: I'm using a cooked 6.5 (21891) ROM with manila 2.5.20113626.
Regards,
PK

Figured that one out already, but there are many 'useless' buttons like the: ' | " | and others which fill up way to much of the screen, I'm really looking for something that just mainly shows numbers in a size that makes it very easy to click them!
Just make the link as I posted it in my first post, as I made a little image to show what I mean ^^
