Very good application! I can translate in Italian (I've sent a mail today) if you want.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] esword:
Yes I've got your mail. Really appreciate for that!

I've explained in my reply that the v2.0 development will bring lots of changes, so it's better to delay the translation work until my main dev work is almost done. Just wait for maybe two weeks. I will contact with you later ;)

Thank you in advance :D
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] heavyhms:
I'm happy to lend a hand ;)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Loco5150:
Wow this looks nice. I can translate to Finnish we needed.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] esword:
That's great! Could you use the "Feedback" button in the app to send me an email? Then it's more convenient to communicate ;)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Loco5150:
I havent installed this yet. And seems I dont know how to spell ^^When needed* :D

I will probably test over the weekend if I have time. If you want, you can pm your email to me and I will send you the contact info.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] scanie:
Sweet! I can do the Swedish translation when the app is finished.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] jibgilmon:
Can't wait to try this out next week! thanks!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] uptempo777:
Just downloaded RapDialer. Pretty nice. I'll give it a try instead of the built-in dialer to see how much I like it.

Thanks!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] nzoli:
Yes it's realy good!! I can translate to Hungarian if you like :).
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] korrel2008:
great app only bug i see so far is that it keeps telling me that there is a update available :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] uptempo777:
So I decided to try using RapDialer as my main phone dialer for a day and gave it first position on my tiles on my home screen. After doing this, the one major problem (which is mentioned in RapDialer's description) is that it doesn't have call history or SMS history. For me, that's a big dealbreaker since that's one of the main ways I use to call/SMS people that I last talked to.

I did like a lot about the app and I know that's the OS not giving the app the ability to access those things but nevertheless, they are important. Since I don't have a need for 3 tiles on my tile screen (Phone, Messaging, and RapDialer), RapDialer is going to have to go. If you do find a way, I'll gladly consider using it again.

Thanks!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] xcen_xda:
I use RapDialer mainly for the quick dialing feature. easy to call and SMS friends that are not always in my recent list.

Until MS comes up with a better way to handle notifications, I'm stuck with 3 tiles on my homescreen.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] baahhh:
It's a very nice app, clean and quick. Thank you!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] stan2:
I was wondering what improvements are you guys working on for v2? The app could use an even faster start up if possible? Also, it would be nice if you guys also do a homebrew version and use the new root tool from heathcliff to access the call history. Only then I could completely replace the default dailer ;D
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Sneakyghost:
German Translations

Hi!

Isn't this the same main concept as 7Dialer has?

There's a huge need for this quick dialing concept, yet i didn't really like the implementation of it.

I will try this one and if i like it and intend to use it further i could do german translations if you like.

I have already once translated a full set of mango system files.

Please notify me if your interested.

cheers,

Sneaky
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] esword:
Yes that's a little bug i've fixed in v1.8. If you are free please help me to check if the bug is actually fixed, since the bug only affects a few users.

On the other hand, you can disable the "auto check for update" in "Settings>Behaviors". Then the bug won't bother you.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] esword:
:) I understand your feeling. At present what i can do is to make RapDialer the best under limitation for dialing and group text. After this part is well done, maybe there will be chances in WP update to make RapDialer more completed as we want. So i'm also building a foundation for the future :D
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] esword:
Yes, I will try to improve the startup speed further in v2. A homebrew version is also being considered. I will do more investigations when my work on hand is done :cool:
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] esword:
Appreciate for your willing to help! I've sent you a PM. Please check it.

Actually I decided to dev RapDialer after I had tried nearly all dialer apps on Marketplace and found no one is satisfying. So I hope you will like this one :D
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Canesfan22:
Need some help.. Trying to help someone who claims to have installed this app and through some sort of bug it is not showing up in the apps list and so it cant be uninstalled to be reinstalled. Any ideas how to remove it?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] esword:
:oI see... Please clarify the display language in your mobile. The app name of RapDialer will change into 瞬手拨 or 瞬手撥 (started with letter S) in Simplified Chinease and Traditional Chinese respectively, instead of RapDialer (stated with leter R) in English. See if it works?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] esword:
Sorry for omitting the second part of your question... After you find RapDialer, press and hold the app name and choose UNINSTALL in your mobile( the only way to remove it) ~ Hope it works well！
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Seven_PRX:
I like it, but like said: it can't display the call history.

Now, with WP Root Tools, is that possible? Perhaps create a new 'custom' version which together with WP Root Tools gives us the option?

That's the only thing keeping me from not using it as my stock dialer app.

Oh, a "voice mail" indicator would be nice, like the default WP dialer gives.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] esword:
yes, i think a homebrew version is possible to show call history and bring more features for voicemail. i will consider to dev a homebrew version after the v2.x work is done.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Seven_PRX:
Nice! Would be very cool!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] RCOO:
Is there any chance to show missed calls?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] esword:
:oActually what you suggested is what we want.But currently a 3rd-party app in WP7 has no way to access those call history and missed calls data...
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Sneakyghost:
If you don't intend to go the paid-apps way there is no problem doing it the homebrew- way, right? There even are secondary markets like wAppStore from WINCO and Bazaar which can be used for homebrews.

Sent from my HD7 T9292 using Board Express
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] RCOO:
I understand. The app is great though and I'll keep using it. If only you could make it display the no. of missed calls it would become the greatest app.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] korrel2008:
yes if he can make that then it would be perfect, now when i miss a call i still have to open the stock dailer
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Bocko92:
You sir..are a God! This app is so good it i don't know how you managed to pull off such greatness! :D If u make it a homebrew app with access to the call history it's gonna be legen..wait for it..dary!!!!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] AMIGAnTOMEK:
Great app! I wan't do the Polish translation, how can a do this?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] esword:
Thank you very much for your warm-hearted support! Could you please send an email to our feedback email address

rapdialer@gmail.com

? i will contact you when the new v2.0 is almost done.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] iainmann:
Excellent app

This is the best dialler in the Marketplace.

It's also very good to come across a developer who is so responsive to improvement suggestions from users.

Only a few days ago, I emailed the developer asking if it was possible to make the letters on the keypad brighter....and the option has now been added in the latest vs 1.11 update.

Thank you and congratulations on a great and useful app that's getting even better.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] soulforger:
I've just downloaded and installed the app. It's the best app for dialing. And backup with skydrive is very clever. But i decided to wait for homebrew app bec. history is important for me.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] aussiedog:
Please add the ability to search all fields, most importantly the 'Notes' field. It will make your fine app even better. Thank you for your hard work.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] shiftf7:
Fantastic app! Like the others, I'm also waiting for call history, missed calls, and voicemail ability - so I can ditch the stock phone app entirely. :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] esword:
Full Field Search

Yes, we do have Full Field Search in v2.0. Please look forward to it~
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Sneakyghost:
Hey guys, what's the story here now? I am back on WP7 again and using your marketplace- version. No 2.0 yet? And still no translations needed?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] esword:
Sorry for keeping you waiting for so long. Time spent on implementation of new features is too much beyond our expectation. Moreover, UI and user guide need to be improved at the same time. As a result, translation work of v2.0 has to be delayed for a while. Surely we will send you email when things are ready.:)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] ghekua:
Hi bro may i help to translate this wonderful dialer to Vietnamese?

It's my pleasure to help u guys :D
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] barclays:
does it have live updating on missed calls?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] esword:
Thank you for your warm-hearted help! Could you send an email to rapdialer@gmail.com? We will inform you when things get ready.:)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] esword:
Sorry,we are not able to show missed calls record because of limitation on WP7. We will update this function once it's authorized.;)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Sneakyghost:
Thanks for the answers. Somehow, the xda app has gotten no thanks button. Can't find it :D .
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Geezay:
Wow! This looks like an awesome app! As a former Windows Mobile user and current Android convert, one of the things that made me reluctant to go back to Windows Phone was the lack of a decent dailler with "smart dialler" functions. Android does not have it either by default but HTC Sense does such a good job. Keep up the great development work. Have bookmarked it for when I get my Windows Phone device!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Raymond Ebertt:
Sorry for the stupid question, but does this dialer work for HTC Desire HD rooted using Lord's ICS 4.04 ROM?

If so, do I just add to SD card and copy into apps or another file extension? There's not much info on the first page, that's why I'm acting stupid
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] stan2:
^ I see them rollin'
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] anseio:
Hi. It's an app for WP7, not Android. Perhaps there's an Android version?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Terabite7:
Great app, your app made my life easier, I wonder why ms didn't built that way.

I would like to ask if it is possible to remove the confirmation for calling because it gets really annoying sometimes... Thanks
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] esword:
It's great that you like it. But I am sorry that the confirm box is forced to be shown by wp7 system, which possibly aims at preventing a third-party app dialing without user's permission, so currently we can do nothing to disable it..Please understand.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] esword:
Sorry~~...... RapDialer doesn't have Android version at the moment, but only in WP7.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] esword:
Thank you very much for your supporting~~But I am afraid your device is Android and could not be able to install software in WP7.:p
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Raymond Ebertt:
Thanks, I didn't know that android wouldn't work. Maybe someone can develop one and have it ported. Looks good, though
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] maatn:
Great update!

You already got a translator for German?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] esword:
Yes, it's under German translation work at the moment. Will release it when things are ready`~ :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] NIKOSXRI:
Strange but my hd2 cannot find the new version in marketplace but the old one.

I have made soft reset with no result.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Salsky89:
Translation

I would like to translate the application into Italian, if it's possible, I have already translated another application in the past (Vable)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] RootKidMitch:
I would translate to German, if you want to...
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] esword:
RapDialer v2.4 is released now, with Italian language support! Please have a try on it~
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] bakkertakker:
I can translate it to Hungarian.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] esword:
Hungarian translation

Hello! Thanks for your willingness to help us on RapDialer translation work.

Could you please send an email to rapdialer@gmail.com and we will give you further information then?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] HTC_FUZE:
it is nice app, I have some suggestion:

1. Display Network provider name, missing call/voice mail etc. just like original phone tile. Do not want to pin phone tile if we use rapdialer to replace it.

2. If call history of RapDialer also contain the call history of original phone dialer would be nice.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] monotheist:
Rap Dialer is a nice app, I too have created a simpler dialer with T9 search, Copy paste, edit before dial etc.

You can find the link to the app in my signature below.

If anyone in XDA has figured out a way to read call history/missed call notification, I can create a home brew app version of my app.

Please let me know
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Sneakyghost:
Hi Guys!

Just wondering are you still intending to include my German translation into the app? It's about 3 month now I worked that out and you said your were needing people to cross check it. Which is a good thing to do. But what happened now? Was my translation so bad that you couldn't use it? Why don't you tell me so then? I will not hold the work paper any longer if you don't need my help anymore.

I'm still holding the work because I'm still expecting a contact from you. I think the best thing you can do is call it off if you don't want it anymore. Then I can get that out of my mind.

Thanks guys!

I'm enjoying your new version on my defect HD2 and on my Mozart by the way. Good work again!

Regards,

Sneaky

[EDIT]

January 13th, 2013

Folks, i am officially withdrawing from this Application now since i am mainly busy with the HTC One S. I kept my HD2 for the sole purpose of testing WP7 Apps but now you guys seem not to put much effort into this anymore (at least you don't respond anymore) so i assume i don't need to keep a testing phone anylonger. Programming is moving towards WP8 for most app programmers anyway now and i can't have that at this time. So...

Maybe see you in another universe some time and thanks for all you did and for honoring me with accepting my translation...

bye.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ace-user:
hi guys...i'm currently using samsung galaxy ace but i'm planning of buying a s2 in the next few days...but before that i have a few questions to ask...

1)there's so many ics rom out there,which is the official ics rom?i'm so confused:confused:

2)which is the best ics rom for s2?the official ics rom,or the custom ics rom?and please give me the link :)

3)is the ics build stable...any bugs?

4)how is battery life of this phone?i use moderate gaming,calls,sms and some wifi...can it last for 2 days?

i hope u guys out there can answer to my questions...i'm a newbie here and i hope that i didnt cause any inconvinience in any way....thx:)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
1) There are several 'official' ICS builds released

2) There is no such thing as the "best ICS rom for SGS2". You have your phone setup differently to everyone else, you use your phone differently to everyone else and your phone came out of the factory slightly differently to everyone else's.

A rom that runs well for me might not run well for you.

I suggest you go the development sections of the forum & read the first few pages and the the last 10-20 pages of the particular threads devoted to different roms. That way you will get an idea of the features/pluses/minuses of each rom, and also see other users' experiences with that rom.

Then you can test different roms for yourself to find one that works best for you.

3) Yes. All the non-stock ICS builds have bugs of one kind or another.

4) Too many variables determine battery life to say 'the battery life of the phone is good/bad/etc. As per 2), it's determined by how you use the phone, how you have it setup, whether you have constant good signal where you live/use the phone (poor signal means less battery life) and a whole lot of other things. Can it last for two days ? If I only used my phone for a couple of calls & a bunch of SMS per day with the phone in idle the rest of the time, I could probably get more than a week out of a charge. But it's a smartphone, and who uses it like that ?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bluefa1con:
Best ics rom = cyanogen mod9

if you want real ics
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ace-user:
1)several?i thought there's only one...:confused:

2)there are so many roms out there compare to the galaxy ace..tat's why i'm confused...i want ics rom...which one do u use and which is the moset popular one?

3)hmmm....nothing major i guess?:confused:

4)oic...my ace can go a day without charging...so i guess the s2 can too...:D
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ace-user:
if i'm not mistaken cm9 is not the official samsung ics rom right?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:
No, CM9 is not Samsung based. It's AOSP based (search if you want/need to know what this means).
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] norpan111:
Don't buy this phone,devs runs away from it
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikzDHD:
Like with any other phone. Devs will develop, something else comes along and off they go, some Devs continue to develop.

Back on topic, try out an official ICS rom first, there are a few as they are for different regions bit any non Asian firmware will work on the international I9100.

Then have a read through the custom roms and decide what's best for you, no one can tell what's best for you its just a matter of trying.

You've got plenty of choices, stock Samsung rom, custom Samsung rom, AOSP, AOKP, CNA and Miui.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Altair681:
I would recommend you Wajk's WIUI! I've been using it now for about 1 month and im overwhelmed by the functionality and the smoothness of this rom! The only thing is that it is no clean ICS that you actually wanted, but it is definitley worth a try for you :)

Altair68
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ace-user:
if not which phone should i buy?:confused:

i'm considering htc sensation xe too...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ace-user:
ok...

i'm from malaysia(asian country) so which official ics rom will work for me?could u give me the link??thx alot!!!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] billcouper81:
Whatever phone you buy I am sure you will find a good ICS rom that works well for you. Whether that is a "stock" samsung rom, or a custom rom like CM9, that depends. But isn't half the fun of these phones the fact that you can chop and change and try different things?

I'm using HyDrOG3N-ICS 23.03 and it seems pretty kick ass. Granted it only came out 2 days ago so I haven't had a long time to test it :) But I might decide to change to a different rom again soon who knows? I suggest you take a look in the "Galaxy S II Android Development" forum and look for posts with [ROM] in the name. Read about them and choose one that sounds cool. If you try it and it's not cool, just try another one :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] autoexec101:
I was in a similar situation a few days ago. I had never used a custom rom on my S2 but after Samsung ICS update disapointed me, i decided to find one. I've tried quite a few, somes would have apps that crash all the time etc,some wouldn't boot. I even managed to soft brick my phone.

I then found Ressurection Remix that came with Vertemus' Domination theme.. Installed 9.6. Was great and i loved it. Then 1.0 came out, so decided to give it a try. And i can say that the speed difference was major. More fluid. Only issue i now have is that the domination theme is wierd in the notification menu ( hard to explain ... the black is just too... black on the items. its just a minor anoyance )

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1436854&page=1589

To conclude, i think there is no perfect mod. I was really happy with 9.6 but when i tried 1.0 i noticed that the other version had a few issues.
[Windows 8 General] normestd:
In low resolution screens/settings (under 1024x768) when you go to the settings "APP", under the Metro UI, it opens up like an APP, and it behaves and it looks like an APP, ... so I think there must be something enabling this "Settings" app under low resolution screens; (sometimes I even got the same error "This app can't open" when I try to to open the "Settings" app under my low resolution screen "1024x600" but It always opens up right after I try for 2nd time); so what I'm saying maybe there's a way to enable all this apps to open in low resolution without using that registry hack that makes things look a bit stretch and too small and blur... and... well I don't like it... I don't know, just a thought to anyone with the expertise/willingness to look into this matter...

Id rather scroll down-left right using an app than frown to my screen... there must be a way... i quess.
