Very interesting way to dial without stylus from Today screen

Hello everyone,

Just installed this excellent rom on my new hermes (credit schaps and mrvanx) and realised the number keypad in phone selects numbers from contacts list (on actual phone screen). I wondered if it would do the same with letters (instead of numbers) and it does. I played around a bit and came up with this way of getting keyboard to appear on phone screen and I really like it as a very simple and easy way of dialling. (Favourites on launcher = easiest IMO).

This is obviously not intended usage though it works great!

For finger selecting letter - Install PCM Keyboard from cab. (http://pocketcm.com/keyboard.php - current version is 0.12). Assign it as main SIP (settings, input section).

Assign the press and hold button 5 to <input panel>

Usage:

From Today screen press and hold button 5 and the PCM Keyboard pops up (selects letter on release = so cool).

Press any letter (or two if your quick enough).

The phone app pops up with a big list of contacts reduced to the letter you selected. (anywhere within name - first or second etc).

The keyboard disappears - so release the button.

If you want to narrow your search further press and hold button 5 again and type in other letters - the list will reduce further.

if you then tap a name the listing extends to show the name and number below.

Its then easy to double tap the extended listing and dial the number.

Weird thing is that if you use you finger to scroll the list it works backwards (no big deal really - 'oh its not moved - ah just slide finger other way'). (guess its a prog on the rom that allows windows to scroll like this).

I am sure schaps could refine this to make it even more useful (spose not loosing keyboard till button is released would be cool).

If you don’t want to install the PCM keyboard you can try this with generic keyboard - but obviously you won’t be able to dial using just fingers...

Note - some letters do 'dial beep' when selected! this makes no difference pre call as not actually going to dial a load of letters - just using the letters to allow quick name selection in the list.

Regards,

Gazzamit.

PS: Obviously in Schaps (and others??) you could just open keyboard and type name as well..

Shaps, great work with your ROMs so far.

Some prob's with 4.2:

1. The homescreen only shows 5 buttons. Favorite People is missing.

2. Comm Manager, 10 Button, Kaiser Style: Is has labels with an LCD-kind-of font in italics.

3. while booting I always get "FTouchFlo" is already running.

4. Homescreen: I only activate "HTC home" and "Calender". On previous roms the vertical scroll bar was only shown in the "Calender" area, now it's also scrolling the "HTC home" area. not so good.

5. where do I find the "keyboard" shown in the "Word Mobile" Screenshot in the 1st post?

any ideas?

4.21

There were muttering of a 4.21 ROM being released. I installed an application on my 4.2 ROM that seems to have screwed up my phone slightly and have been hanging on reinstalling on the premis that a 4.21 was just around the corner.

Should I wait? I always seem to update just before a new release....

Cheers and thanks Schaps for your efforts!

Thanks for your new ROM, Schap

and here's the problem's i've met

ClearType in landscape.I've enabled it via Advanced Custom but any soft-reset would let the ClearType disabled. It seemed Advanced Custom cannot save its settings.

And..Schap, since i'm a Chinese user, may i join you to translate your ROM to Chinese?

Thanks again for your excellent ROM.

Great ROM but I've reverted back to 4.01 (I think is currently the better option)

I believe 4.20, although a good ROM, is a work in progress which will eventually become the ultimate ROM as it's problems are ironed out. However, in the short term, I'm reverting back to what I consider is the best ROM to date - 4.01.

I'm now looking to install FtouchFlo (without the cube - which was a temporary distraction) on 4.01 which provides a great new scrolling feature & a new method of moving between applications when used with "minimize" & "Taskswitch" applications.

Problem is I should have backed up both minimize & taskswitch applications which came with Schaps's 4.20 before reverting back. Can someone please post these files? :o

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] harleym:
Thanks for the link !!

Great impressive task manager & launcher! but I'm looking for quick, finger operated selection (rather than stylus) so that it flows with Ftouchflo

..more chance to play around with this.. it does have command parameters but there seems to be a some conflict with ftouchflo which occassionaly causes screen fragments to stay on top until it closes.

Did anyone noticed that birthdays/anniversary's are not being "alerted". any reg-key or something to enable this???

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] chymmylt:
I've always wondered why the WM Smartphone edition does a much nicer version of this. On my phone a day or two ahead of a birthday/aniversery in the today plugin for calendar on the Smartphone it will show an upcoming birthday and their age which I think is great - it's sitting there for a day or two to remind me instead of just an alarm style alert or using a seperate 3rd party plugin. I never understood why MS gave such nice support to WM5 (I presume 6 too) Smartphone Edition but not thier PPC edition :S

Hi every one

Thank you Schap’s for your nice work

I confirm similar problems of Orkan95 for the 4.20 version (only points 1 to 3)

1. The homescreen only shows 5 buttons. Favorite People is missing.

2. Comm Manager, 10 Button, Kaiser Style: Is has labels with an LCD-kind-of font in italics.

3. while booting I always get "FTouchFlo" is already running.

4. Homescreen: I only activate "HTC home" and "Calender". On previous roms the vertical scroll bar was only shown in the "Calender" area, now it's also scrolling the "HTC home" area. not so good.

5. where do I find the "keyboard" shown in the "Word Mobile" Screenshot in the 1st post?

In addition, I have those tow problems:

1. The Setup of my provider (Rogers - Canada) not works properly, phone and text message is ok, and have problem with MMS I cannot send or receive. I try to use this solution:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=1306107#post1306107

No differences, I steel have the same problem.

2. Each time I reboot or soft reset, I have always the same notifications:

Connection Setup: the operator does not exist in the database. Please contact your operator for the connection setting (that right, Canada is not listed) connection setup will redirect you to the connections screen

So, after one week of 4.20, I switch to 4.01, problems 1 to 3 are fixed with 4.01 steel have problem 1 & 2 listed above

Thank you for your help

When will be finished the new 4.21 rom ? PEACE
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] aaBlueDragon:
problems.

I have a few problems with this rom which i don't think anyone stated yet.

1. I don't know if its related to this touchflo thing, but when i install my RomExt that gives me Hebrew support, after the restart, when i go to standby

mode, its stuck at the standby mode and i cant get out of it, i have to take

the battery out and place it in again and turn the phone on.

2. My non-wireless internet doesnt work anymore, plus, each time i turn on

the phone, it tells me an error message about something that i dont have a connection setup.

i dont know, maybe its my fault, but in other roms i didnt have to set any

connection to be able to use this internet.

everything else seems nice in this version, but i really have to be able

to use my hebrew support and its too bad i cant use it in here. i wish

the 4.21 will not have such problems.

How to Install the Schap's WM6 Pro ROMs

Hi,

I'm new to tweaking things like the ROM on my Mogul but wondering how do I go about getting it done?

My Mogul is new and I installed the new ROM update to 2.17. Battery life is great now but boring otherwise.

I've downloaded the file and started the program but when I get to the part which asks forcing the SPL and stuff like that I'm not sure what to do. I see that it says I must have Hard-Spl 1.11 and bootlogger, etc. But have no idea what I'm supposed to do.

:confused:

Maybe you can disable manually - it must have a shortcut in the startup folder that you can move/delete. Memmaid allows you to do this easily or you can do in file browser? Though maybe the problem is the startup file is in the rom and so it can't be disabled/moved. Flashing myself shortly :-D

Does the ROM knock out the alignment that it requires re-alignment?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] crazyC:
No initial alignment seemed fine.

I only tried to re align to see if there was an issue.

As indicated by Schaps - removing the link from the startup folder solves the realignment issue in any case.

ROM still feels a little "elastic" to me. click on something , it pauses and then whoosh does it very quick. There does seem to be more of a pause then I am used to. I guess the 3.57 Roms were just very good.
