The default contacts screen on the Fuze is "ok", but just not iContact. I did install iContact, but it displays VERY tiny contacts. Is there a good replacement out there? What I really liked was the pop out alpha pad as opposed to the alphabet down the side.
Any suggestions? Thanks!

Helps to know what version of iContact you used.
I haven't had any issues with "tiny" contacts when using iContact.
Are you using the original, Avian, trubert, or Supbro?

you probably used the Icontact that wasn't for a VGA screen , hence thats why the txt is so Tiny... download An Icontact VGA and you should be GOOD MONEY !

Agreed. iContact is great aside from MINOR nitpicks
hey all~
two other free contact managers come to my mind....
1.pocket contact manager (they also have a touch screen keyboard)
2. yota contact manager
for either one of them make sure you get the vga version (as opposed to qvga or wvga)
i prefer yota as it seems to run smoother and with pcm, after u make a call or check a number it didn't usually fully close. it kept running inthe background and before i could reopen it i'd have to force it to close via the task manager (with a confirmation prompt)

Sweet Nice Vista Cab
I like the vista cab. I have been using the e-ten dialer for a while. Pair it up with this vista theme and you have a PPC that owns.

great.... skin & smartdial....
Thanks ..
When I try to copy a new set of files over from a different skin I get an error message that the file cannot be written.
What am I doing wrong?
I'm having issues with my Eten Dialer all of a sudden on my 8525 (wm5, never flashed the rom). When I start to dial a number, all of a sudden my Contacts screen will pop up, which is highly annoying.
I uninstalled the dialer and reinstalled another color and still have the same problem.
Is it trying to activate the smart dial or something (which I know the regular version of the eten dialer doesn't have)?
Anyone else have this problem or can offer any advice?
Or if worse comes to worse, is there another big number dialer that works well on the 8525 that you can recommend to me?
Thanks!!!

Will give it a try myself
Just checking before i install this, that i don't need anything installed on my system, just run this cab and it will install everything to look like the iphone.
Please make it with smart dialer, thanks!

if you 'Hide Keyboard', you get wm6 smartdial. otherwise, use EZdial - it's very nice app for speedialing.

Thanks for posting!
People better grab it before Big Brother complains.
Anybody know where I can get the picture in the background to use as my today background? Thanks
Here is the background to use as your todaybackground it is in png format.

Thanks for that background!
BA compatible
works on blue angle too
is there anyway to get my default backround on this skin or am I stuck with Nemo? Not a big fan of the Nemo thing but I like the pad.

I'm looking for a good contacts manager. Something that is easy to use, esp with the finger. What are some of the more popular ones?
I'm currently using icontact and find it not exact enough (the letters are too small for my finger)
Thanks

Finger Friendly Friends
And I'm using the Finger Friendly Friends application for this, and IMO this is a fantastic contact manager

Yes, as both sad! Its a must have. In car or on the move, makes it wery easy to find a contact for so call or send a sms (hell, even youre actual gps position).

Im using Vito Fun Contact.
It's perfect!
you could also look at Icontact, easy to use, even when driving....
i tired all and finally found that Inesoft Address Book 3 as the best one.
- Big keys, easy to search , good easy acess buttons, ringtone selector and profile setting, option for full screen caller id and so on...
Very stable.
Go for it and u wont repent
iContact 0.6. Very light and fast on your system and professional looking. Best of all, its free!
I second. iContact 0.6 is the best.
I've been using: Vito Fun Contact, Inesoft Address Book, Finger Friendly Friends, Pocket CM, photo contacts and still like iContacts more. My second favorite is FFF, but it's not free.
i prefer fun contact, most finger friendly for me. only thing i don't like is the loadtime with the stupid splash screen i already know it works with all languages i don't need to be reminded every time i want to call someone.
Guys is there an app that will allow you to manage your contacts from your PC?
I find it a lot easier to mess about with details on the PC than on the PDA......I've already found Dashwire but is there something else out there?
Thanks
You can manage your Contacts in Microsoft Outlook, and then just synchronize your phone with computer.
Finger Friendly Friends is what i am currently using and its great. iContact is very neat too...
I contact 0.6 is great, as it seems that its faster than Icontact 0.73 and when u close it, it closes, unlike 0.73 which you have to close from task manager.
Give it a try
I vote pocketCM - it's brilliant. With the MH-HTC v2.3 theme it looks the nads too
FFF by far
iconntact is not like the iphones contact thing at all...it has a blackbackround where the iphones is what and much easier to see..but the finger scrolling on it is very good...what is the newest version of icontacts , and is there a white version of it?

Its not like Iphone thingy, as far I know It only comes in black.icontacts new version is 0.73, but its slower than 0.60. and its got no close button. In fact they released 0.71 which had no keyboard to jump at contacts, but with 0.73 which was released within days after 0.71, they got keyboard back, but still no X.
iContact all the way
Hi all,
I have happily been using my HTC Touch with PocketCM as my primary contact manager for just over a year. I find this piece of software excellent and very complementary to the Touch's interface, making the handling of my 500+ business contacts a breaze. I also recently went through an exercise of adding pictures (via Outlook) to roughly half of my contacts (combination of a dump from a corporate database and facebook!) and again the results when using PocketCM on the Touch look really good.
Having received my much anticipated Touch Diamond and sync'd it up with my contacts I explored the built-in and updated WM6.1 contact manager. My own personal view is that it's much improved and certainly borrows a number of PocketCM's innovations, however for my own personal use and usability still falls short of the mark. In particular I don't find its touch-scrolling as smooth, certainly isn't as quick when selecting a particular contact (nor as eye-pleasing!) as well as there being no option to have contact pictures on the index.
I therefore installed the latest version of PocketCM, however haven't been having much success with it. I previously was using either the default "Dream" or "Touch" skins, however on the Diamond they seem to corrupt the display. By setting it to the "Black" skin and resetting it seems to fix the display issues, however I find it almost impossible to actually select a contact. Scrolling works fine, however when you go to select a contact it is as if it is too sensitive and instead does a tiny scroll up/down - it takes great precision (either on a desk or using a stylus or some luck!) to actually select one.
Also, while if I select "Contacts" from the WM6.1 interface PocketCM is launched (as is desired - PocketCM being a replacement for the primary contact manager, however from within PocketCM you can indeed launch the native WM6.1 Contact Manager if desired), however the "All People" option on the TouchFlow3D People Tab still launches the native WM6.1 contact manager and not PocketCM.
Has anyone else tried PocketCM on their Diamond and would like to help me with and/or comment on any of the above? Much appreciated in advance!
On the same boat, any word on it yet?
Hi Simon,
1- How to have TF3D to launch PocketCM instead of standard PIM ?
For this use SSMA from this post [APP][Update 20/7/2008] SSMaPa (Alpha) 0.2.2 (20/7/2008)
2- Where to find VGA themes for PocketCM ?
See my post here: [SKN][UPDATED 26/10/2008] PocketCM VGA skins for Diamond
or go to PocketCM website where I uploaded VGA skins http://www.pocketcm.com/theme.php?application=1
Have fun.

Could anyone recommend any "phone keypad" - like the one came preinstalled in D1?
The one with 10 buttons: 1 2ABC 3DEF etc.
Or any alternatives?
Thank [email protected]
Do you not like the one on the D2? I'm sure there is a CAB outh there for the HD. I don't have time to search for it though. That shoud work perfect.
My thumbs are slightly too big for the d2 keypad.
really sad to see they removed both suretype and phone keypad
i will have a look for the one on hd

There are three different keypads in D2. Default is "Full QWERTY", but you can select Phone Keypad or Keyboard (with ctrl button) if you hold the little up-arrow next to the tiny keyboard icon at the bottom of the screen. It appears every time you have an input field in focus, or when writing text messages, mail, etc... Context menu pops up with all different keypads.
search for FingerKeyboard v2.1 for WVGA
its the best out there

The D2 does have the key pad. That is what I was asking about... LOL.... My thumbs are big I bite my nails clear off all my fingers and still can type with the full qwerty.
So everytime I hear the excuse of big thumbs I like to call BS.

haha i think this is rom specific
i have a hong kong ver. d2 it only has a full qwerty with other chinese inputs.
what roms are you using?
or would i be able to install any extracted d2 keyboard cabs instead of flashing it?
you should be able to DL the diamond 2 keyboard CAB. Actually I have on. Will post it up.
Please note I did not make this cab. I found it when searching for the keyboard for my Elfin. I cannot find the source I got it from or would post it. It was from someone who extracted all the programs from the D2.
Never mind. The CAB was on my other HD wich crashed a few weeks ago. Sorry but cannot find the CAB files online. It was on everythingdiamond.inf but it seems they have lost them when they swiched servers. not sure if it would have worked because they ported them for VGA use. I do think they had the origial WVGA cab available too.
