Hi Davey, I've been using the standard HTC dialer for a while now but even the modified versions like this one LINK still lag behind and eat loads of memory.

The only reason I dont use the WM dialer is because of the ugly grey skin..and as I'm using an Ignito and like the blue O2 theme I cant use your nice black skins either. I wanted to know if it is possible to make a VGA WM dialer skin which has the same basic white colours as the standard HTC dialer (i.e. white background with grey selection areas) just like this one colourwise:

I would really appreciate it if you have the time to make this simple skin, Im sure other people have been looking for something similar aswell.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Davey101:
This is my first attempt. The button colour isn't perfect - I simply took the buttons from the standard grey skin and swapped over the pressed and unpressed images. If somebody wants to have another go, be my guest! :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] ajdj:
Thanks alot Dave, thats exactly what I'm looking for :)

only a few things ive got to add :p

1- ive found this white manilla wallpaper and wanted to know if u could use this one as a background instead? http://xs135.xs.to/xs135/09036/white967.jpg

2- ive tried taking the same coloured buttons of the standard dialer and size them down to the WM dialer. and it actually works fine but as the font colour is white and the background and buttons are very white its almost impossible to see the writing :o so is there anyway to make the font colour black, or any other colour for that matter??

3- this ones just a little fuss of my own but the colour of the "talk" and "end" buttons is not exactly the same of the htc dialer so i also took them and resized into WM dialer size.

basically when i installed my own skin it was all fine except the writing and the border of the buttons..they werent 3d but apparently that is not possible anyway in WM dialer.

i installed yours though and everything is fine, using it atm actually ;)

heres all the files i used in my skin...maybe their of use to you

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Davey101:
Nice work! If you would like any files making into a cab, let me know. :)

There must be a registry value to set the text colour but I've not been able to find it yet. You can use any background you like, just save it as a png file the right size and copy it into the Windows folder.

Personally, I think transparent buttons work best, over the top of plain coloured backgrounds or simple pictures - like in the flat black or sunset skins. The fact that we can only use one background for all of the dialer screens makes it difficult to do much else. :)

I've actually gone back to the HTC dialer now that they've got slide-to-answer working properly. I don't have any memory issues now and I figure I can live with the ring delays.

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] letsgoflyers81:
I'm wondering if it would be possible to create a VGA version of the Touch dialer, or at least something that looks like it. I just switched from the HTC dialer to WM on my Touch Pro because of how much faster it rings. If it can't look like the Diamond/Touch Pro dialer, it'd be nice if it can look something like this:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] drjim:
I just installed the black dialer cab from post #3 and then I discovered the blue dialer and installed it using the zip provided. But the black dialer still comes up on my Fuze when I press Phone. Can someone tell me how to uninstall the black dialer or allow the blue dialer to override it?

FYI, I don't see it in Programs or anywhere I could think of looking in File Explorer.

Thanks.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] 4D3:
Im with you, i think that the HTC dialer takes so long to ring, it is worth losing the eyecandy for functionality.

but i would also love to have that dialer!!
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] mitsi:
Hi All,

I love the idea of improving the windows dialer because of the memory and lag issues, but no-one seems to have noticed or even cared that when using the windows dialer, the bluetooth icon no longer appears in the taskbar when bluetooth is activated. I want to know if bluetooth is on or off and without the LED's of other phones, this is the only way (except manually going into the comm manager) of knowing whether bluetooth's on or off. If anyone knows of a fix to be able to use the windows dialer AND be able to have the bluetooth icon, I would be very greatful indeed. You are all right to think the windows dialer is ugly and in need of a make-over!!! :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] james_5111:
Why the bluetooth icon will not show ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] mitsi:
I wish I knew. It just doesn't show if you use the Windows Mobile dialer instead of the HTC dialer. Try it and see!:D

Anyone know of a fix for this so we can have the bluetooth icon AND the windows dialer and save the memory and phone lag?

By the way, I also had a problem with my contacts which was that when I went into the contacts tab and then "all people" softkey, then highlighted any person, the screen came up without any details of that person. To get over this, I installed Resco Contact Manager. So then, I had THREE phone dialer skins. The Windows one, HTC and Resco Contact Manager. In addition I have an MP3 as my ringtone (which I reduced in size with MP3 trimmer).

With all of this, my phone lag was awful. It would take 4 rings before my phone rang. I missed some calls this way. I have since solved the problem with the contacts page by flashing my ROM :) So now I don't need the Resco Contact Manager (although I did like the interface). But the phone still rings 3 times before it rings (if you know what I mean).

I would love to make it ring instantly when a call comes in. To get closer to this, I think you have to get rid of the HTC dialer & just use the Windows Mobile one... BUT then you have no bluetooth icon.... Oh dear, one problem always leads into another!! :D That's the fun of these phones isn't it?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] dsixda:
Can you try adding the icons to your phone and check? You can add them from the Phone Canvas OEM:

I have tried inserting these files into my Windows folder. This still doesn't show the bluetooth icons when using the standard Windows dialer instead of the HTC one....
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Davey101:
I've just had a very quick google and found a solution to the missing Bluetooth icon issue. :)

Details added to post #2.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] mitsi:
Dave,

Great find - works on my Diamond. Goodbye HTC Dialer and hello shorter sound lag on incoming call and a bit more ram! Thanks a million! :D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] dsixda:
Thanks Davey. BTW I replied to that thread, requesting them to update the icons with a less blocky version.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Mr. Makk:
can you tell me how to create a wm dialer skin?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Davey101:
It's just a case of editing the 14 image files with Photoshop or similar. Any parts of the buttons that need to be transparent must stay the exact same shade of pink.

Looks like you were successful! I'll update post #2. :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] frapipda:
Hello, I'm brand new there, but still have the same issue :

- want to have windows default dialer to avoid lag

- want to have bluetooth icons on top.

I tried the BluetoothIconNotifier.CAB from post #2.

Still a bit ugly imo, regarding nice Tsowen icons besides. Is it the "less blocky version" ?

I tried to change the icons in BtIconNotifier.exe file from the cab, and put others icons with reshacker. very simple 32*32 icons, 2 and 16 colors.

Then how can I have nice icons, like these of tsowentaskbar6v3.1(lite) ?

I use WM 6.1. Found things about 6.5 on http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=512971 #6, but not for 6.1 ?

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Davey101:
Hi,

I suggest you ask the developers of the patch (CarAce) if they will produce a new version using Tsowen's bluetooth icon. They clearly like Tsowen's icons as they have linked to them elsewhere on their site. :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Darren8448:
Sorry to bother you, ive been using your skins for a while but have changed theme so wish to delete them. When I do remove them im left with a horrible white skin with grey buttons??

Do anyone have the original grey/black skin??

Many thanks
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Davey101:
Hi,

How did you install and how are you trying to delete? If it was with a cab, have you tried uninstalling the cab and soft-resetting?

Otherwise, try deleting the 14 image files using Total Commander, Resco Explorer or similar. The orginals in the ROM should reappear and will be used after a soft reset.

Cheers

Dave

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Giannis.K:
Hello,

I have a programming background but I'm new to android dev. so may I ask:

How difficult would be to implement an app that returns the GPS location of a specific phone and what tool would be the easiest way to make it? Will App Inventor do it? Another tool would be RFO-BASIC. Could someone be kind enough to describe the steps involved?

Reason for this kind of app is a friend of mine who has a 15yo child with health problem and needs to monitor it. I know there are apps in the market but: 1) Most are not free and 2) Does not want to (or can not) get his child's email details to use it for this purpose.... What he can do is take the phone for a while and install an app.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] James_Watson:
I suggest you check the official website of android development, where there are documents and tutorial for android app & GPS location development.
[LineageOS Questions & Answers] y0va:
Dear community,

I am wondering how to assess the security of needed binary blobs for lineageos. As far as I understood there is no possibility to update these blobs, when the device becomes unsupported by the vendor.

So this proprietary code would be a weak attack surface, or? At least when some of the code runs in priviledged mode, it seems to be dangerous...

I only have found this aged presentation on how to assess the security of these blobs, is there any newer stuff, or some standardized methodology for doing this?

https://recon.cx/2013/slides/Recon2013-Joshua%20J.%20Drake-Reversing%20and%20Auditing%20Android%27s%20Proprietary%20Bits-public.pdf

I think there should be warnings for using blobs that are known to have security relevant bugs...

Good afternoon,

I have found this tool:

HMD Devicekit Tool for Nokia Devices: Flash, Reset; ETC

Is it real what they count?

Is it useful for our smartphones?

Can it be used for something?

Greetings
[Nokia X10 / X20] AltFantasy:
The tool is real, and it can be used for:

However, you cannot use the tool without access to an account of an organization that works with HMD, like Nokia Mobile Care (I think? either that, or you cannot use the reboot EDL mode feature without the account or something)

Without authorised login you cannot do anything with this tool.

By the way which Nokia device do you need help with?
[Nokia X10 / X20] AltFantasy:
{Mod edit: Quoted spam post has been deleted. Oswald Boelcke, Senior Moderator}

doubt you can do anything w/ this thing, tbh. Also, I heard that you can use EDL for stuff like bootloader unlocking, it's just that you will have to change certain bits, but the question is: which ones????

TechMesto (a popular Nokia phones' bootloader-unlocking service provider) told me in an email I sent to them that:

So... yep, that tool is pretty much useless, unless we know what we're doing, which is.... a strong "No.".

Heck, it seems like you can only trigger EDL by disassembling the whole ****ing thing, then short the test point to trigger it, but if you've read everything above, you already know the answer: what will we do in there???????

Hello and thank you for those who will try to help me.

I tried to follow a tutorial to root my one plus 8 pro android 11 last night. So I followed several youtube tutorials. only I put a rom which was poorly optimized. The wifi didn't work. So trying to do everything I went to the developer settings and I disabled the usb debugging which is important for the future. So not knowing enough the basics in root I wanted to unroot my smartphone, and I went to the magisk manager and I click on uninstall (I did not uninstall the app but I click on uninstall in the magisk manager). I do not know if the smartphone restarts but it does not matter. I then check if the wifi works, nay, I looked using the root checker if the smartphone was still root, and it is marked that the smartphone is not root which is normal since I have it unroot. In a wind of panic I therefore wanted to do a factory restart by deleting everything (which is silly). So I went to the bios (the menu when you press volume down + on / off button) I clicked on delete wipe data, I also delete the data etc ... When restarting the smartphone takes time , I tell myself that it is normal, then black screen, then it restarts, then again black screen, then I panic. Fortunately, I manage to go to the smartphone's bios by some manipulation (when the screen goes black I can press the on-off button for a long time and a classic android menu appears with marked turn off and restart, when I select turn off the smartphone turns off and I can therefore turn it on again with the low volume manipulation + on / off button which redirects me to the bios) once in the bios I can go in recovery mode or in fastboot mode. So I tell myself that I can try to flash my one plus with the stock rom (original) but I don't know which version to take and if it matters. I can't find the original rom on the official one plus site (as is the case for xiaomi from what I saw on a youtube tutorial). THE question I am also asking myself is if I will be able to flash it while, as I said previously, I have disabled the usb debugging.

If qlq would have the solution or if someone knows someone who could help me, that would be of great help to me.

thank you to those who have read my pad, I may be explaining the problem poorly, do not hesitate to ask me questions to better understand my problem in order to better resolve it.

So, for the past couple days I've been trying to install juice roms on mi Redmi 9t (whichs board name is pomelo because it's the latin america version) unsuccesfully and I think I've narrowed down the problem to being that my phone is running Android 10, and not Android 11 like the roms. All the custom recoveries I tried installing the rom with showed "assert failed: update_dynamic_partitions(package_extract_file ("dynamic_partitions_op_list")) updater process ended with ERROR: 1"

So my question now is, how do I upgrade my phone to Android 11? I would try installing the xiaomi.eu rom but it hasn't been possible because that's designed for lime devices, and not pomelo like mine.
