A Phone.spk that can do this? - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So right now I have SuperD installed on my phone and everything looks nice but I have one gripe. Some of my contacts are not saved as square contact pics (ie. they can be rectangular, etc), and when they call me or I call them, the dialer stretches my contact pictures to squares which usually result in very ugly looking pictures. Is there a phone.apk that has this fixed? I was using the dialer that came with SuperD and updated to xenio2000's phone.apk but still no luck.

Dialer with large Contacts Photo

Does anyone know of a dialer which displays a larger contacts photo. The size of photo in the standard T-Mobile dialer is tiny. Also the pop up notification window on an incoming call doesn't show any photo. A large picture of the caller would be great for screening calls. I used to use a modded Eten dialer on my Wizard which did have a slightly larger picture but afaik it is WM5 and does not support video calling.

Are there any Kaiser compatible dialers which display a larger contacts photo?
I used to use this and it worked nicely:

It also had good profile management, blocking features etc.
I can't be bothered to install it now that the HTC Home has contact pictures on it though...
I have used "Slide 2 Unlock" on mine which is available on this forum. There is a registry setting on this that will allow you to have a full screen picture of the incoming call contact as a background with the incoming phone number providing you have a photo for the caller stored. It works very well and it's free!
I'm now using "Inesoft Address Book" and I'm quite happy about it.

I installed this last night (v0.86) and it is working brilliantly. What with S2U2, PocketCM, PocketCM keyboard, HTC Album I feel like a little Apple fan boy. I didn't start out to clone the iPhone look&feel I just wanted a responsive, intuitive, user friendly interface for commonly used features.
I guess I didn't either but it's hard not to like some of these iphone type apps. It's a bit like having the best of both worlds, but what I will say is that I tried the iphone in the o2 shop and the screen is something else!
Does it identify contacts in your SIM? Photo COntacts pro didn't that's why I stopped using it. Also can you use alternate dialerpads cause the one they show is ugly. Also what shows when someone without a picture is calling? Thanks for your help and advice.
Does somebody know what registry settings belongs to make larger contact photo appear on incoming calls? I don't want to use a multi purpose program for it.
Thx

weird camera after frf83

I've been running the FRF83 build since it leaked and havent had any problems except one. After taking pictures on stock camera it will display the picture fine but when i look at it through the gallery the picture is two tone where the bottom portion seems opaque like. the thumbnail is fine but the two tone even shows when i send the pic through text or email. sorry if this issue is posted somewhere else.

[Q] MMS picture orientation

Hi All,
Not sure if this was ever brought up in this forum ?
When I attach a picture to a MMS, the picture will always be display horizontally.
So even if I take a picture vertically, inside the MMS the orientation will be wrong.
But the picture will display with the right orientation in the Gallery.
It's not that big of a deal, but it's annoying to have to flip your phone every time you receive a MMS...
So do you guys know if there is a way to fix that ?
I tried replacing the Samsung Stock Messaging apk with the Vanilla one from Google, but it didn't fix it.
Any other ideas ?
Thanks!
i have the same problem...it's really annoying when uploading to fb and then having to go into fb to rotate it
My current work around for that is to use a third-party Camera App (like Vignette) and use it when I select Attach/Capture Picture in the MMS app.
But if I have a vertical picture that's already in my gallery I can't find a way to attach it with the proper orientation.
Glad I am not the only one having that issue.

Hate contact pictures![Q]

I hate having contact pictures on my contacts app, in my dialer, and even the text messaging app. I just hate having contact pictures, i dont use them, i have one picture for one contact, and the rest are the stupid stock lacking picture things. I hate it, i'd like to just strip that out entirely, have only the names, no photos at all. I find it much cleaner, and less cluttered. Does anyone know of any rom/mod/app that will help with that? Exdailer seems to handle a lot and one of the features is removing it, but i think that's primarily just for the dialer.

[Q] Pictures / avatars in phonebook, sms.

Here is the thing.
The very 1st time i was setting up my XSP i was able to make my picture for a contact square. Not it is only possible to make dreaded rectangular that centers to fill the square frame.
I think i was using 1.257 the first time and no google contacts account. I am using the google account and latest soft plus i installed this. Is there someone who can help me with identifying the culprit? I really liked my square avatar...:crying:
Or perhaps someone can confirm that the selection frame for cropping phonebook picture is indeed square in the stock phonebook app?
