Changing today image when call missed - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

On my old HTC Mteor I had a theme where the today/background image changed if you had a missed call.
Is this possible on the Kaiser?
I've searched all over and can't find any info on it....i just find it hard to believe it was doable on a smartphone but not on a PPC. Makes for a very dull today without it

Iphone dialpad skin hangs WM.

Hi All,
This is my first post here...
Has anybody using the Iphone dialpad skin experienced this issue?
You call one of those places where you need to "Press 1 for xxxx, 2 for xxxx", so you touch on "Keypad" to bring the leypad up and enter the number, then when you click on "Call Status" to bring the "Mute", "Speakerphone", etc menu up and the phone hangs completely, you can still hear the conversation, but can't do anything else...
This only happened to me while the Iphone dialpad skin was installed, tried many others and they all work fine, a shame as the Iphone one is really nice.
I've searched the forums but no mention of this issue anywhere.
Thanks,
Fernando.

Microsoft would see that as a "feature"
yes, this is very frustrating with the Narg iphone dialer.
I am in for a $25 donation if someone will fix it for the Touch!!!!
Yes, I can confirm x5 today that it hangs the whole WM6.5 (Joshs 21725_Light_5-30) any time you access the buttons on the Call Status screen. Only SR will bring back phone..... ukk
And upon further research and trying various other dialers, I can attest that the only way that the Opal dialer works on Kaiser/Tilt WM6.5 is via Anryl ROM (per other user reports) as of today 6/5/09.
So the long answer is, Both iPhone type dialers are broken and will not work and are no longer being developed, and the OPAL one needs fixing to work on WM6.5 ROMs other than Anryls, and I love Josh's ROM too much to change
I se we are digging in the graveyard again ?

Ive searched but with no luck

ive upgrade my Orange SPV m3100 today to a TyTn II, and first signs are impressive, however a few little things annoying me, and ive tried searching for help but cant seem to find it.
1, SMS/MMS
this is a massive pain in the ass to me, before on the SPV, it was split and made life easier. but now its merged and is driving me insane for some unknown reason (possibly OCD lol)
2. SMS main screen
On the left soft key it now says "Delete". again on the SPV it was new, made life easier and faster rather than trawling menu for new messages
3. The main today screen. The quality HTC black screen with big clock isnt an option on Orange so it would appear. if so can anyone tell me how? its looks great on the HTC Touch yet on here i have either the crappy Orange side bar or standard Windows bars
4. Touch FLO. wat programs does this work on, cus mine seems obsolete on everything
sorry to be a mega noob, but wud appreciate some input on making this PDA truely awesome

Cheers boys and girls
There is no way that you searched and didn't find the answers.
need to find better searching tricks, 1 advice would be to use google or just using a few key words in the forum's search tool
well i did search but "new sms" "delete" "mms" comes up with 32 pages. most of them reading thru, talk about new CABs, and for me thats a last resort, i no u think im being lazy, but after reading 100+ threads with no luck id thought id ask
I got the orange tytn ii before Christmas, and hated the Orangeness of the phone. Found the HTC plugin here:
http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-htc-home-plugin-v1-0.html
Install on phone, soft reset and then go to "settings", "today" and move to the items tab. Tick the HTC home (not the HTChomeplug) option.
For the black "theme" which is just the black background with a small htc logo in the bottom right and the black bars top and bottom:
http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/s.php?querywords=htc+black+theme
Again install on phone, soft reset go back to "today" and on the first tab select HTC_new_default
You will still have an orange battery charge icon on the top bar though. I've been happy to live with that!
much appreciated mate. ill have a crack at that when I finish work later.
managed to sort touch flo out aswell
ill carry on searching thru the sms threads, but in the mean time, if any one can point me in the right direction id be very greatful
cheers again

You can find different versions of Arcsoft with the SMS/MMS split. However, it can cause problems when you install it overtop of the merged version. Your best bet is to read up on ROM Upgrading in the Kaiser Wiki, actually the whole Wiki, and then look for a cooked ROM that has the split version of Arcsoft loaded by default.

He is correct. Messing with the Messaging system can bring on Gremlins. Best leave it be or get a ROM that has that from scratch. I've come to be ok with the combined SMS/MMS. At first I didn't like it but I'm fine with it. What I really disliked what the threaded SMS on 6.1.
Think you're stuck with the combined mms/sms. You could always make another folder and manually copy your received mms's over to that. Can't say it bothers me too much. Cure your OCD by convincing yourself that an mms is just an sms with an attachment!
Regarding the previous post. Once you have downloaded the cabs copy them into a folder on your phone (eg. my downloads) and install them, then soft reset.
Once you have it up and running you can go back to "today" (settings) and choose from the items tab what other notifications you want to display below the "big clock"!!
Top tip if you're with Orange. I managed to blag the Orange Business data tariff of 250mb per month for £8 per month including VAT. This rolls over as well!! Phone up customer services and ask (nicely) if they'll bolt it on for you. If not ask for the data tariff department and sweet-talk them.
nice one guys, many thanks, ill let u no how it goes in a bit
hey, spot on so far mate, any other tips? or things that are good to install, got msn so happy with that too
by the way ive got a great blag for the business net user, just wondering wat questions they asked?
no luck blagging , just out of curiosity, is anyone else having problems with IE lagging loads whilst u scroll down even tho the page has loaded?

Replacing Video Dialer Skin

Im not a big fan of the video dialer on Dutty's Rom's. I attempted to replace it but no dice.
I would like the black dialer as shown here:
Tried installing cab, but after soft reset Dutty's red kaiser dialer still there.
Tried wiping out folders in registry HKLM/Software/HTC/PhoneCanvas and HKLM/Security/Phone/Skin and reinstalling cab and still no dice (Prolly shouldn't a done this but found these keys on the Athena form, so thought i would give it a try). Now Dutty's Kaiser dialer is gone, but with phone skin enabled or disabled shows standard dialer.
Any one replaced a video dialer skin with another video dialer skin? What am I doing wrong? Any hints?
* I have attempted several searches through the forms all turning up mostly goose eggs for swapping video dialer skins. I see no guides or wikis for this.
Poor xcuse for a BUMP!
Beuler...

Anyone...
Anyone...
C'mon someone out there knows where I should look for this answer... Someone has to have modded their video dialer. Should i try to ask about this in General?
I
Guess no has done this...
Too Bad! I'll do some more digging of my own on the topic. If anyone can think of anything at all, be sure to drop a line, I'll be more than happy to look in any direction that you may point me.
Thanks!
Saturday November 17 2007 update:
Note: Newer HTC models (HTC Tytn II / Kaiser and HTC Touch) have their own custom dialpads, these skins aren't suitable for them. Do not install! You might have to hard reset if you cannot remove these skins via remove in settings
I've been digging in this as well but no luck... I Bricket my device once or twice trying to solve this.
There's loads of dialer skins but most without or no working video.
The skin you found look awesome so if you get it working plz let me know.
@jamorgan2008
you can try before installing an alternative dialer following.
1. Set the key in the registry HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin\Enabled to "0" to disable video dialing function.
2. SoftReset
3. Install other dialer
4. SoftReset
5. That´s it
I had same issue on my Kaiser, but after that it works as expected

Invisible contacts on Htc Fuze

So i've been using the RRE Fuze 4.5 ROM and i recently did a hard reset coz my phone went all bonkers on me. so hard reset was done everything seems fine except that when i get a call i can't see who's calling, the font is white for some reason and i don't know how to change it. PLease help! oh yeah and how come i only have the stock sounds as choices like for when i get a new text msg?
You'll need to ask in the RRE rom thread about the white font. Some roms have the wrong text color for the dialer and include a patch to fix the problem (a mix up between "white" dialers and "black" dialers).
For the sounds, search for HTC Diamond Sounds, you'll find a cab that will let you reinstall them.

Replacing the original Contacts and SMS interface

I just got a second hand Touch Pro and flashed an official 6.1 ROM obtained from htc.com on it. I managed to change a lot of the disgusting interfaces, but I couldn't find a solution for SMS and Contacts.
I was wondering, are there ways to somehow change the interface of those without flashing my ROM? I know apps like Easy Contact and stuff, but they don't seem to be fully replaceable (as in, Easy Contact will show up in the "Contacts" button in TF3D instead of the original Windows Contacts)
I know I'm asking for a question that I'm pretty sure everybody would ask. I swear though, I searched for the whole day but I could sadly find nothing related, so... help me out a little bit here?
Thanks in advanced!
sms to be
just search for sms skins i found some on this site the other day and they look way better
.
the lattest energy rom
here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=536751

Thanks for the recommendations, but I don't think i really want to flash my ROM right now...
Are there any Contact skins?
