I think I posted this in the right sub-forum. I had the G1 but got the MyTouch 3g a few days ago. I was looking around on my itunes and I saw an app for the DHD that's on Stargate available as an app to replace the stock dialer on iPhones. I was wondering if there are any apps out there that replicate that app but on Android. I looked on the market but I found nothing and I have searched the forums for both the Magic and Dream, but still to no avail. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I still have my G1 and use it and since both the MT3G and G1 use the same APK's, if this does exist, it should work on both. I'm posting a link for anyone who doesn't know what the Dial Home Device is. Thanks.

it really wouldnt be that hard to do. try asking in the themes thread if someone wouldnt mind skinning the dialer for you.
however, the app itself probably couldnt be recreated. the stargate behind the dialer wouldnt be there, but theres no reason why you couldnt just have the DHD as your dialer.

I have L26 V9 6.1 professional rom...and i am having trouble using third party on screen keyboards. Ive downloaded and installed cootek touchpal, pocketcm keyboard and htc touch qwerty and none of them work. I have installed the sipchanger app also to make the onscreen keyboard stick after a soft reset but i cant even get the keyboard to come on the screen after i instal them succesfully, I go to start > settings input and once i choose the new keyboard, usually in WM 6.0 the keyboard would show up then i would need to use sip changer to make it stick....but when im in input settings the keyboards wont even show up on the screen. I dunno if this is a rom problem and i should post this in the rom section but is their another sip application i can use to make keyboards show up? sip changer isnt working for me but when i used duttys 6.1 apr 29 rom , my keyboards worked so i duunno whats up with the v9 rom......can someone help me figure this out so i can get an on screen keyboard to work...this rom didnt come with another third party app keyboard so i desperatly need another on screen keyboard other then this really small default white one...someone plz help
SIP keyboards
Same thing happenning to me. I have tried different third party .cabs and everything seems fine with the installation, but when I go to select the diamond keyboard nothing happens. Even if I use SIPchanger. It will do nothing.....
I got to work once, but then it stopped again. Some help please.
Holy Crap. What the hell!?
Seriously guys, If you posted this in Leo's V9 Thread. You would have gotten the answer.
Plus I know for darn sure that there are multiple answers in the v9 thread on how to do it.
You know how long that thread is? how long do we have to keep reading crap just so that we can get a decent answer? Why not just save us the trouble and tell us the answer here?
Well I'll search for it since I'm not lazy... but it would have been better if someone actually responded to this thread with a real answer.

The problem with your theory, is that others may have the same issue in the future. Then, when they go the the rom thread to which the problem pertains, they can't find the answer because it is in a whole other sub-forum instead of being in the rom thread.
If you are having issues with a rom, go to that thread and post your issue. Then when a fix is found, it is in the rom thread for future users to find.
I appreciate your frustration, but it is for the betterment of the community for the problems and fixes to be posted in the rom thread to which they pertain.
Thank you for understanding.
Hm, flashed a few different Hero ROMs and one thing that seems consistant across them all is the fact that I can't get them to auto-rotate when I'm in a message. Obviously, the normal user wouldn't care about this issue since the only need to auto rotate would be for the soft keyboard usage. BUT, my spacebar is broken somehow and I -need- the soft keyboard until I can get a new G1. Am I the only one experiencing the no auto-rotate in messages issue? I didn't have this with any 1.5 ROMs (Went from JF - > Cyanogens), but all the Hero ones seem to have this. Anyone know of a fix? I tried searching the forums to no avail - assuming my search query may've been too broad :\

They are two different Mms.apk files. I believe the new one has the autorotate, while the older version does not. These ROMs switch back and forth between them in difference versions because the older one doesn't have the messaging issues. So, if you can find one with the new Mms.apk, just push that over, and you should get your autorotate back. I don't know which ROMs have it, so you might have a hell of a time flashing unless you remember one that has it.

I was wondering the same thing because it's kinda annoying opening the keyboard everytime but I like a phone w/ physical kb but w/e so can I use the mms apk from the JF 1.51 cause I kno 4 sure that had auto rotate also can I put the hero keyboard on there and can I use terminal or can I just use a file manager like Linda ?Also can someone post the commands to push files through terminal Thanks
The JF1.51 is not a hero build, so the Mms.apk is the cupcake version, not the Hero version.

btw i installed cyanogens new rom thats stickied here in this forum
Try a hero rom and find out, you said you installed a regular rom. Just to name a few of the pros; HTC Music, HTC Widgets, Browser, Facebook Contacts. There are more, you just have to try it out and see if you like it.
Also remember hero rom was not made for the G1 so there might be some known issues...

I installed cyanogens 4.1.999...thats not a regular rom is it?
That's a regular donut rom yes.
When I say regular I mean something that was built for the device at hand ie. ADP/ASOP rom. Unlike the hero, blur, cliq etc roms that are not made for the G1.

Not going to spam the Hero/G2 forum, but because i mainly live in the G1 area I would like you all to know that I have developed a whole new Home Replacement called GDE. It has transitions like a cube, configurable toolbar buttons etc etc.
A link to the G1 thread ( with all features and some movies ) so i dont have to copy all of it over and over:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=4698010#post4698010
I have tested this on a G1 and a G2, so it should also run great on a Hero. If anyone has tried it please let me know how it works on your devices!
Highly recommend...currently replacing sense as my default home screen. Reminds me of compiz ...you definitely need to check it out!!!
how to download this?
It's in the market, read the comments if you don't believe me. I really like it a lot but going back to sense for now until an update.
@erasmogjr
Thanks for the replies. Could you let me know what you would want see first in an update?
I tried it any for a first release its very good. BUT the bottom app bar is not nice. Is there any way to make it transparent?
I am working on a theming framework so you should see different themes soon!
BOUGHT!!
this is great, keep up the good work and im looking forward to see updates
Is there a Lite version to try before buying it?
I did a search and only came up with the paid version.
im looking for another way to manage contacts. htc's is really good but scrolling down can be slow at times, I tried out acontacts from market hated UI but I did like how you can search by letter kind of like the new zunes UI.
any other recommendations?
Why bother when you can do the same with HTC's.
Open the HTC People app hit menu > search for people, and then start typing on the keyboard that comes up.
Or just press the dedicated search button!

We're not talking about universal search - just the search within the People app and part of bog-standard Hero 1.5.
