Tilt Dialer Button Behavior

I got a warranty replacement Tilt last week. On my new device, I get no sounds or vibrations when entering numbers on the telephone dialer. My last Tilt used to make a sound as I entered numbers. I have Kaiser Tweak installed, but get nothing whether I set dialer button behavior to tones or vibrate. Any suggestions? I went to Sounds & Notifications and enabled sounds for Screen Taps and Hard Buttons, with still no change for the phone dialer.

did you try searching??
try these keywords:
- keypad vibrate
- keypad sound
and see if there is solution for your problem.
i guess there is, so i would suggest to use search in the future.

thanks, I had found the vibrate thread, but that wasn't what I was looking for. My search did not turn up the dialpad sound fix cab.

there is more than this one thread regarding vibrating dialpad. if this is not what you was looking for, than you could explain what you need in more details. link to sound fix was in keypad vibrate thread. please try searching. but for real this time. you can't expect to find solution with two clicks, you will need some time for serious customization of your phone.

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.

Do you know the keys for the phone app? I bet there are 100 people wanting those. I think that is what kgb-agent is looking for.

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.

How to prevent Smart Dial to appear after a call?

After a phone call Smart Dial appears for 5 seconds before it disappears.
Is it possible to get rid of that or at least reduce the time to 1 second?
Thanks.

I would like this as well as it takes to long to revert back to tomtom

+1 Bugs me too.

yep I am with you on that one too.
also the three second delay solutions posted here still dont work

ditto...any solution?

*Bump* Anyone, please

bump again.. maybe if we'd ask this in the themes and programs section?

no , i think this is the right place. a registry tweak maybe

actually, i knew about this but hoped for a sollution as well.
disable the phone skin with Advance Config and revert back to the old winmobile dialer.

"slide down for more options"

Hello, im using miri 8.1 premium and i want to remove the "slide down for more options" when i make a call... is this possible??

+1 i hate it!

+1, i really don't like it

yes! Me too, it is the most useless junk ever thought by the HTC ppl! It is annoying, please someone please help us remove it!

And why don't you ask miri for it in is thread instead opening a new one???

Because its not just in Miri's rom, its in more or less all of them now

I want it back to my ROM badly. where is the cab?

i also do not need it, and would like to know how to turn it off

+1.
Its a pain to mute/un-mute during conf calls with this on.
Anyone?

For those users interested to find a solution to disable the curtain, here is the package. Could be a dll or a registry key.

Found a solution
Found a solution with reg key.
Goto HKLM\Software\HTC\Phone\Cover
There is a DWORD value ResumeInterval set to 5000 (5secs).
I changed it 300000 (5mins) and soft-reset.
Now the call starts with slider on, you only need to slide down once. Then it will wait for 5 mins of inactivity to come back up.
Probably higher values can be used, but 5mins should work for me.
As always, modify registry at your own risk...

I must admit the Topaz dialer (as nice as it may look) sux! What was wrong with the standard HTC HD dialer? it supported landscape and was functional.

i assume you like the curtain and i'm glad for you, others don't
maybe we use this and just don't need an extra step of protection
and we want to find a way to turn it off

I had zero issue with the standard one, it was functional and did exactly as one would expect. Topaz dialer hides all options instantly making it absolutely dangerous to try and activate loudspeaker whilst driving . The other issue is landscape view, if using any rotate screen app and having the device in landscape (ie. whilst using GPS apps etc) and receiving a call there is no dialer shown at all!
Surely I am not the only one to notice these problems?

thanks man it helped

But no i have a problem - remove the curtain...

[Q] Question regarding Dialer Pad "long tones" and how to change?

Hi All,
Can someone tell me how I can change my dialer from inputting "long tones" when dialing to "short tones"?
Example... When I call my bank to check my acct. balance and enter my ATM card number, it always gets read wrong because of the length of the dialer / number tone and I am never able to get it right.
My Samsung Omnia was like this as well but it had an option for either "long button press tone" or "short button press tone" and I cannot seem to find this option on my SGS.
Can anyone advise on this? Does anyone know what Im talking about?

Anyone? Does anyone know how to change this or if there is even an option to do so?

Use Dialer One (search the Market). There you set the tone interval in miliseconds (unders settings).
And believe me... You will never use the stock dialer anymore

How does this work exactly? Does it actually automatically replace the stock dialer or does it need to be started seperately everytime you make a call?
I dont mind the stcok dialed otherwise but I just wish I could figure out how to shorten the tones when dialing the phone.
This also only happens when I am already IN a call. When I make the initial call there is no actual tone sounds like a regular push button phone. It makes little "bloop" sounds instead... (Im sure you know what I mean... LOL!)

I have this same problem and it seems to happen at random, try disabling the touch tone sounds in the sound settings.

I have just tried that and I will let you know my findings. Thats kind of weird that this is the only way to do this and that there is no setting for it.

***EDIT*** Yes... This works but again it is awfully strange that there is no actual setting to switch this.

It replaces the original dialer (actually both can coexist). You just have to choose which icon to click. But I tell you. It's really a way better experience. Very customizable.
