I just spent the last hour and a half or so reading various threads about updating the Dialer Skins on the Hermes, and I'm now quite confused. each one seems to have its drawbacks, such as things not working afterwards.

What I need is a Dialer Skin with big buttons, that has ALL THE FUNCTIONALITY of the factory dialer skin. I don't want ANYTHING missing, broken, etc.

Does this exist? I'm running the latest Cingular rom (the one dated 4/9/07) from htc's website. my phone is not cid nor sim unlocked; I don't want to void my warranty. The 8525 doesn't have the front video camera, so I don't need the video button.

But I really need a dialer skin that works as the factory does, with all the functionality (Smart dial, history, PTT(?), etc.). Dark colors, vista look, clear buttons etc. would be nice, but not required. All that I require is Big, one finger buttons and ALL functionality working properly.

Can someone please point me in the right direction? I've done due dilligence in reading and searching threads and the wiki.

Thanks in advance!

Try this link. There are many dialpad skins listed. Pick one and give it a try. They are uninstallable so if you don't like it, just uninstall it.

I am also confused!
I looked at the above recommended website and;
1. I do not know how to remove the "Etan dialer" (I assume this is the skin that Cingular/AT&T has supplied with the 8525?
2. Are the skins that I see displaying larger numbers than the default?
PLEASE chime in and help us!
