:| lol wow i would have been better not knowing my 666 post! haha least i dont have to worry bout that happening again haha.

& yea get ready for the onslaught...WHEREZ MY CABZ?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sammypwns:
lol you just reduced the image size and removed the image ratio. i hope the person that does this for real, actually resizes the images while maintaining their real reatios so it doesnt look like a scrunched version of the original. If someone gives me the images i can do that
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dharvey4651:
You can download the OEM from the 1st post.

Also.. Since the Topaz Canvas is WVGA and our devices are only VGA the images WILL HAVE TO BE "scrunched" in order to accommodate the extra row of buttons. I could have very easily cut off the bottom row maintaining the "un-scrunched" appearance but that's not what we're going for. We're going for a complete package.

I didn't just "scrunch" it. Each of those images took about 10 minutes each and I had to piece together a bunch of little parts like a small puzzle.

If you can redo the actual images without having this affect then please do so. Everyone will be very grateful.

EDIT::

If we were to keep the original image sizes, this is about what it would look like(it looks like ass... The caller ID photo is way too small...):
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jster:
Did a bit of google searching and it looks like the function you are looking for is BitBlt. I also confirmed this function is called throughout phanhtc.dll, so it is probably a safe bet. R1 should be the x coord and R2 the y coord, but you are going to need to confirm this.

For more information on using bitmaps in windows ce, you can check out http://www.developer.com/ws/pc/article.php/2107151

It also looks like there are lots of drawing related error messages after checking the results from ___V_YAXPAX_Z , so you might want to also look there as well...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dharvey4651:
Yet another attempt at a draft:

Images are no longer "squished" and contact photo is still rather large. What I did was remove the gaps between the rows of buttons.

I think that this one here is probably what the final canvas should look like.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] caldito:
I agree, this and the other with keypad with two fields of history calls.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ND4SPD:
thanks for the pointer. I did find a method call to set the display area and I'm working from there. I've seen a lot of those R1 and R2s, so that should be good.

Thanks once again!

btw, dharvey: nice drafts. I hope I can deliver :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sundar_amn:
The Top bar with 'F SFR' - is that necessary? we can remove that bar and make more room for the rest. just my thought.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dharvey4651:
I hope so too. Have you been able to make any progress since the last pre-alpha?

I suppose that might be an option but inevitably up to the developer. I personally like that dark bar at the top. It's just to display your carrier but I do like it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Captain_Throwback:
I believe that's caused by the Call History buttons not showing correctly.

Well, I was able to put a cab together with the files from my OEM package, install it, and my Call History still works, so maybe it'll work for you if you install it, too.

Is there a way to use this dialer WITHOUT slide to answer? I want to be able to use the windows 6.5 lock screen, but it conflicts with s2a
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Qui-Gon Ginn:
Hi all, hi MikeKnoop

I have a problem with your cab.

I made a cooked rom with phonecanvas of topaze and when i install the cab, the icon of the bluethooth disapear and i can't synchro with Outlook

Someone has the same problem?

I have a touch Pro
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MRFERRARI23:
so this new cab you posted is supposed to correct that issue, that when you press the right menu softkey an click on call history itll show up correctly with the 4 icons for all calls,dailed,recieved an missed??? cause the current version ive got installed doesnt show that oddly enough :confused:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Captain_Throwback:
I don't know whether it'll fix the problem. All I know is, I don't have that problem, and that cab is made from my package. It MAY fix the problem, but I don't really know, because I don't have it. The only way to find out is to try it, I guess ;).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] badwolf:
I am having font issues with the calling and incoming call. sometime they seem normal and other bold/italic? is this normal am i missing a font?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chrisjaffe:
Works! Nice job Capt.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] spnshinqsn:
Attached is a pic of what he is describing. This happens when I have a black version of the dialer installed via cab, but not with the plain white version that is cooked into the ROM I use. I also notice that using the black dialer cab the call history page has the talk button in the middle with the two buttons on either side on the bottom, while the cooked in dialer has the four separate call history buttons at the bottom. Maybe this will help someone with more knowledge in this area resolve the issue.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] peacock93:
I love the skin but I have a small problem. When I press the contact button nothing happens. I use Resco contact manager. I there a way to assign the all of the contact functions of the skin to Resco Contact Manager?

Thank you for the help and great skin!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Dwight2001:
Peaster, below is a pic of the problem with the Black Bar cutting off the Incoming Call #.

Thanks,

Dwight 2001
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Krzysiec:
Would be great if U can talk about this problem HERE :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] cmylxgo:
Thanks...but I already edited those files and they did not have any affect :(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Dwight2001:
No problem, any further "Skin" issues I'll post over there. But I do have another problem that I think is Dialer Related and not Skin. Whenever I get an Incoming Call from someone on my Favorites List, the "thumbnail" image is not shown. All I'm getting is a flat gray square where the thumbnail should be. Any fixes or suggestions?

Dwight2001
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jug6ernaut:
i also have this problem when using the oem provided
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] BumAround:
well said, wish I could've said it more clearly.

now the (only?) glitches with Tachi are: (1)the 'stuck' keyboard layout issue, and (2)sliding mechanism while working, is not really smooth...not flow/liquid enough as opposed to wm dialer, at least to my taste and experience, and (3)hopefully video call is gonna be up and running soon.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] programatix:
It's missing 2 files. You can get them in the cab.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dharvey4651:
I made a package from the cabs so I don't have any of these issues. The only problem I have with the Tachi canvas is that I don't have the 4 buttons that are supposed to be in Call History.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jug6ernaut:
yes this is what im referring to.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dharvey4651:
Not sure I understand why it's doing this. All the appropriate images are in both the cabs and the packages.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nimravus:
With the original v2c this is ok (for me), while with v2d the 4 buttons are gone. So there must be something missing in v2d.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dharvey4651:
Can you post V2C? I'd like to run a comparison to the package I made for my ROM.

Edit:: Nevermind. I found it a few pages back. I tried looking it over to see if there was any noticeable difference between v2c and v2d but can't seem to find anything besides dpext.dll(registry entry).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Peaster111:
I think I figured the issue out. I was having issues with the "four history buttons" on the bottom (actually called CallLog Buttons) not showing up in the Dialer in either color versions. I replaced the CallLog Buttons with "slightly older file versions" and soft reset the phone. Works like a champ now.

Attached is the cab... Hopefully it works for you guys too.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

EDIT: I updated the cab to include removal of the GPS icon
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] spnshinqsn:
Thanks! Can confirm that this does work. Reinstalled black dialer cab, then this one, and now all is right with the world again. :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MRFERRARI23:
so this add the missing 4 call history buttons when you go into menu an select call history???
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Peaster111:
That's the intent
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MRFERRARI23:
it's the intent...or it actually does it oooorrrrr you dont know lol....:p
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Lledrith:
btw I have heard the missing bluetooth icon is due to your dialer? How comes? If this is true then perhaps you can make a version without this issue? I have installed a fix for this missing bluetooth icon, but the icon is awful :)

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mike1986.:
Mike, can we call this OEM version 2e? Or it's just for development?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MikeKnoop:
This isn't the Tachi canvas, it's a Rhodium canvas so you might as well start any nomenclature back at V1a :) But like I said it's unusable as it so don't bother DLing it or installing unless you're either planning on trying to fix it, or don't care if your incoming/in-call screen are useless :P

-Mike
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MRFERRARI23:
MikeKnoops thats cool what you've done an nice to have written it all out and YES to be able to get this dialer ported an working would be even nicer cause of the added features etc...

but what I want to know is why you did this alone, cause a few pages back Herg said he couldnt find you to continue helping him on this project i believe...i could be wrong.... but also i believe that if you both work at it a lot more improvements could be made!!

all in all thanx for your works an efforts!! :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MikeKnoop:
Well, honestly because everyone else I talked to didn't know much about assembly language so it was more or less an educated guess from them changing things in the actual code. I brought some ASM experience to the table and as such, I've been working on fixing the ASM part of the canvas (the only part left, mind you) by myself. Herg's just been modifying resources and images which will only get you so far on the canvas (the download above was a combination of my own edits, stock rhodium, and some extra useful info I received).

I'm releasing this information now with the hopes that if anyone else wants to take a fresh look at the canvas code, I can point you in the right direction the with assembly code as I haven't been able to find everything thus far.

-Mike
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] herg62123:
actually i have been able to do more than resouce edits and moding pics
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] btxakita:
hehe ,how a bout the new Tachi PhoneCanvas??

Surpport landscape?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Krzysiec:
I`m a little bit confused now ...

So ... Did U worked (Mike and herg) together or not ? ;) Because for now i don`t know if there is any chance to have Dialer with Video calls and so on( that herg was working on) after Mike post above ... Are U herg further than Mike ? Or am i missing something ? ;)

CLEAR QUESTION:

Is there a chance to get working dialer that herg posted here some pictures earlier ? Or not ? (because of soemthing)

Thnx for reply in this case :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] herg62123:
HERGS FILES SO FAR

these are not cab files but oem files

dont install if you dont know what you are doing
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nimravus:
So did v2c work for you? I also extracted and compared the two cabs, trying to identify the differences. Before I was thinking it's due to the different versions of the DPadMenu.dll, but later it turned out the DPadMenu.dll from v2d can replace the same after installing v2c, without causing any problems. Seems it could be due to the differences in registry.

what is the progress ? what need's to be done ?

Cannot conference the calls...?

Hi guys,

I called my wifes mobile phone and then my own home number and wanted to conference the calls but a notification appears with "Cannot conference the calls".

What am I doing wrong?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] semsem1969:
few issues with new dialer

hello everyone,

just installed tachi dialer and found few issues if someone help i will appreciate it.

1-can not do conference call

2-at the dialing screen when i click on menu(open contact,video call,call history...etc) i got no finger or stylus touch only way is to select with the action button down then select what i want.

3-all people click to edit contact picture i can not (when i click on from file it goes back to the edit screen)

am not sure if there are fixes or it is only me????????????????

thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Kamill:
FAQ

Guys, the not always working conference function is a known issue, the Topaz dialer (the current ported is Tachi) has this already fixed, look at the screens at the previous pages.

I've written a short FAQ, if you find it useful please use it :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] c5713:
mike/herg: one request regarding video call function.in the next tachi dialer release can u make the video call screen larger?the normal htc dialer just display 320*240 video size..whilst on most of our vga device the front camera can support 640*480 video..i know on diamond2, the dialer can support that video size,but is it possible to do that on our vga device?thnx a bunch..
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Peaster111:
LOL... I guess I didn't understand your question...

Well I sorta know. All the files were/are there. Nothing was missing. I replaced the "original" Tachi files with an "older" set. A couple of files sizes are different, but they appear the same. I dunno exactly why... but hey it works with the older files. :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Krzysiec:
THNX for this :) But which folder is more usuable ? there are TWO of them ;) one with _0 and one with _01 end.

I`m trying yours because Tachi in some mysteries way didn`t want to dial numbers today :( I pressed button it started dialing ... and suddently dilaing screen is back to Dialer main page. Did anyone got this on Tachi Dialer ? (not herg)

EDIT: Your ver (herg) seems to wrok very ok ;) But for now the connected screen with no visible Keypad and End Call buttons is unusable like for me ... But great work ! And cant wait for final release ! ;)

tried on folder _01
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] p50kombi:
Maybe you can ad the activesync issue (Like Activesync may cause problems on some ROM's together with this dialler).

It's still stopping me from installing and seems I'm not the only one suffering from it.

Good idea to start a faq :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Kamill:
Thanks, forgot about that! Is there a solution for that? AFAIR no :(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Captain_Throwback:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Qui-Gon Ginn:

Bluetooth Icon Fix: http://xdaforums.com/show...postcount=5899 by dsixda

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=3886890#post3886890

The 2 solutions doen't work for me :(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Captain_Throwback:
Did you install this via the cab file? Or did you use the OEM & cook it into a ROM? Either way, I'd think dsixda's notifier would've worked.

My cab will only work if you have a pre-installed Phone Canvas that uses the bitmaps in the Windows directory for the BT icons. It also may not work if you're not using Notification Enhancement.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] BumAround:
Sorry, Cap, installed your cab and the problem (bold-see above) persists.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Kamill:
After installing it the Dialer is cuted in the half (can give a screen if needed) and still there is no Bluetooth notification. After uninstalling it gets back to normal.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Captain_Throwback:
I have no idea about that. Especially since I don't have the problem, and it seemed to work for chrisjaffe (though I don't know if he had the keyboard issue). Did the Call History cab that Peaster111 posted a few pages back help?

It seems like this may be related to Notification Enhancement. Are you using it? If so, is it the Tachi version? I think that may be the key to it working. dsixda's fix is probably more global, though apparently it doesn't work for everyone either.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Kamill:
Yes, I'm using the Tachi Notification Enhancement. For me it's not a big issue that the bluetooth icon doesn't show - I'm not using it so often :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Peaster111:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] BumAround:
ay, my lazy eyes.... thanks Peaster111 & Capt.Throwback, it works indeed.

now, waiting for the landscape absence to be resolved. Solid gold!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] herg62123:
i dont remember which one it is but one folder is my testing folder and the other is when i find a fix it goes into the other folder.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Peaster111:
Here somthing to try... Herg posted this eariler in the thread to as a "win6.5 taskbar fix" for the bluetooth icons. I cab'd it up and added in my BT icons. It seems to work good for me. I've been using it for about a week now. You'll need to soft reset once installed.

The taskbar icons are all BMP's, so once you install the cab, changing the BMP's is easy. I also added the Source Files as a zip for anyone who wants to play with it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MikeKnoop:
Herg have you made any progress on the incall or incoming call screen?

-Mike
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Captain_Throwback:
That's the same as my cab - yours just has the icon bmp files in it. I offered to create a cab for this in my original post. I left the bmp files out of mine since most people were installing as a cab, and would already have those files on their device (most of them are not used by our devices i.e. are Tachi-specific).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Qui-Gon Ginn:
in fact, the cab work, but i needed to reboot the the phne for the cab took effect.

i don't have notification as your screen but i have the icon that show blootooth on.

can you make the cab ask for soft reset at the end of the installation ?

now i just have activsync problem.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Aaron McCarthy:
So apparently anyone using the newly released official rom from ATT on their fuze this phone canvas doesnt work. I mean it works but the slide to answer screen is screwy. I've posted a few times about it before hoping for some sort of direction. I started a thread about it in the Rapheal section and asked a few times in the ROM thread as well.

When this installs the slide to answer part of the canvas installs OVER the existing slide to answer built into the rom and makes it look funny; no photos show up for the Caller ID and the number doesnt show up properly. I've installed another dialer over the ATT one to see if that helps - V4 XDA Black Slide to Answer (CDMA and GSM) - but nothing, once I install the Tachi Canvas ontop of that it goes back to looking like I mentioned above. I was told that it was possibly a graphics issue so by installing a different phone dialer for the fuze it might make it possible for the tachi to work right. Mind you I could only find the one I just mentioned which has a built in slide to answer as well. Does anyone know of any NON slide to answer dialers that might disable the one built into our roms?

Is there ANY way to get the canvas installed withOUT the slide to answer part so it doesnt screw up our phones or is the slide to answer that installs with this completly necessary for it to work? Does anyone else have any idea's on how to fix this?

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Qui-Gon Ginn:
in my rom, i don't have this problem. i have contact photo
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Peaster111:
Doh... I guess I missed the boat on that one. I must have more coffee...

I wonder why others can't get it to work then. Very strange.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Captain_Throwback:
Well, if a few posts up is any indication, maybe they didn't soft reset before posting here & saying it didn't work :rolleyes:.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Peaster111:
Yeah... Funny.. I saw that too :rolleyes:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] herg62123:
for those who want to take a crack at the moding i have done then here is everything i have done so far:

(i used peexplorer for all of my mods as well as ida pro.)

in phcanrc.dll -

there are several resource files listed but for now i am going to talk about 6 of them which controls the portrait/landscape dialer keypad, contacts behind the keypad, and the 3 buttons on the bottom that includes the talk button in the middle.

those resource files are 8132, 8137, 8171 for portrait and to the best of my knowledge 8131, 8136, 8172 for landscape.

for the life of me i cant remember which one does what but:

one of them controls the number dial pad

another one controls the 3 buttons at the bottom which includes the talk button

and the thrid one controls the carrier logo, the clear/back button (harvey i know how to remove that arrow from the tachi dialer all together now), and contacts list behind the dialer

under each resource code there are sub resource codes and each one controls a pic or button on the dialer screen.

each sub code has the usual cordinates 0,0,480,640 (x,y,width,height)

with peexplorer it gives a visual window and when you click on one of the sub cordinates it will display a box on the screen and you can drag and drop the item where ever you want to place it. becareful here cause some items are ment to be hidden while others are to be shown.

by messing with the x,y,width,height values i have been able to line up for the most part the number dialer screen.

that is all i have for now.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] deeznuts:
Possibilities???

Just curious what the possible end result could be for this tachi dialer project? Im sure most of us use att network so video dialing isnt really an option for us. Is conference calling and landscape a finished possibility? Using att fuze. Im using it and so far very few flaws. Just no landscape and sometimes when i press my send hard key it doesnt call first time and i have to press the talk button on the dialer to call the contact. Just curious what the possibility is for a end product here. Thanks! Also, could it be finished to work with the wm 6.5 lockscreen feature? I would gladly donate more if these features could be made.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Captain_Throwback:
RE: Conference Call & Landscape, see my post here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=3926557#post3926557

I don't have issues with the 6.5 lockscreen, but apparently that's because I use a PIN unlock.
