(28 November 2010) iDialer v0.54 - Open Source edition

[supbro]

I would like to announce the next version of iDialer, v0.54! This version is the first open-source version, with code available on Google Code (http://code.google.com/p/idialer-wm/). It also fixes the soft-keys for non-touchscreen phones.

Update: November 28, 2010: It seems Google has changed their URL scheme for some people, so if you get an error message like "unexpected results: m/b/0/sms" then download the new version from my site.

See my website (http://supware.net/iDialer) for usage instructions.

Here's a full list of differences between v0.53 and v0.54:

[#] Fixed soft keys: left soft key = "add contact", right soft key = "backspace"
[-] Removed experimental support for dialing via Phone.com
[#] First public release of source code on google code

Public service announcement about 911 calls: please test 911 from your phone before an emergency situation arises. I tried it on my phone the other day with the new Tachi phone canvas and it did not work the first time.

Download from my website:

http://www.supware.net/iDialer/

I have a companion program, GreenButton (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=3083570), which better integrates iDialer into the OS. See my site for details.

Here's my iDialer wishlist for future updates:

Custom in-call screen
Request any URL


Here's some screenshots:

thank you very much :D

[Hugo381]

can you make it in the diamond skin to match icontacts with diamond skin? that would look great. thank.

[[germany]merlot]

I got it working and it's really good but when I do following, select the dialer, can't remember the number I want to dial and want to jump for example to the favorites your app always refers back to the last used function of iContact. In the case when you started iContact and go straight to the dialer and further to the favorites it always will jump to the phone book. Is it possible that you don't remember the last used function and go to the selected one?

[nir36]

this is really really great. thanks man

[asmanthebell]

finally a worthwhile dialling app nice one.

[sinoo]

Will you integrate it in your new version of iContact?

[pacifox]

Hi,

Thanks for this good apps, but how change number format (***) *** - *** ? (not work for me , in france)

[rolandfg]

Nice one!

May I dare with my very personal wish list:

- options/instructions to map it to the dialer button
- international (configurable?) phone number format. I'm able to place call also with the current phone number format anyway.
- inclusion into iContact (only when the iDialer software will be mature enough)

Anyway does anyone know how to map it to dialer button (the one with the green phone icon)?

[Radical_MT]

I'm really looking forward to the grandcentral dialer. I would also like the option to not fully integrate because I would want to use the dialer only for gc.

+1 for grandcentral dialer

[kwoodall]

Here's my iDialer wishlist for future updates:

GrandCentral dialing (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=399719)
Better OS integration
DTMF sounds


What about Photos? Smartphone Support?

BTW...the GrandCentral support would be fantastic! But, wouldn't that belong properly in iContact itself since GrandCentral only dials numbers you've added to it's contact list?

There are ways to have grandcentral dial non-contact numbers. Look up Grand Central Click to Call extension for Firefox (http://thatsmith.com/2008/06/grandcentral-addon-for-firefox/) to see one example.

supbro - looks like the two dialer skins (xcf) on your site are corrupt. When I downloaded and changed the extension to .png, I couldn't find a paint program that could read them...?

Are you by chance using an old version of iContact, or Burt's or Ender's edition? Try it with the latest version of iContact.

Awesome. Guess my own Dialer program is a bit pointless now!

Couple of features would be good:
SpeedDial (with some form of disable)
Changeable number format
A few other things... I may PM you with them

[nir36]

I still don't understand.. will it not work with burt's edition? when you run iDialer it works really great, but it doesn't work THROUGH iContact.. when you click favourites and then the dialer again it will open the regular dialer.. not iDialer.

[hazeline]

I am jumping for joy, finally i found this dialer, Thanks man!:D

[Drybonz]

Very awesome! Thanks!

Will be so great if it can completely replace the windows default dialer.

Black or grey to replace the blue-ish tones would look nice with a Diamond.

there are many dialers out there.. one of them looks almost EXACTLY like this one. you can replace your default one. this isn't meant to replace your default one but to supply a dialer for iContact (to my understanding)

This is really nice :)

great addition to your I-contact version, supbro

One thing though, apart from the earlier mentioned smartdail, videocall and so on.. The hardware button mapping doesn't seem to install right. ie. when I hit my phone button it still comes up with the original dialer skin.


Looking forward to the integrated version... Great work, bro

i've been using this plugin and i would have to say it works really well it auto highlights all the numbers on the webpage that i'm on i assigned it to my work number since it's a landline if this could work with idialer that would be great i wonder if the guy released his source code so it could be reworked
i can also do this with my callwave account pick a number from my address book and get it to mimic my cell number but call from my work number

Will you integrate it in your new version of iContact?

i have the same request. Could you please make it? :D

[SnoopyDog]

Hi! Thank you for this application :) I use it together with iContact Burt edition so that look&feel are nearly the same. I modified the skin a bit so that it matches the "default" skin in iContact (Burt). Except the battery, currently iDialer queries the first pixel column to draw the rest of the bar. "My" battery looks a bit nasty, but you can easily replace it with the original.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=395086

I'm sorry, but the dialer you mentioned has a complete different design. One VERY important things is, that iDialer matches perfectly iContact. The dialer you mentioned doesn't!

[supbro]

i have the same request. Could you please make it? :D

It is already integrated into iContact. It will start when you press the dialer button in the menubar at the bottom of the screen. The next version of iContact will use iDialer to dial your contacts and whatnot (only if you have iDialer installed).

[outphase]

will iDialer be able to function without iContact? I prefer my original dialer and original contacts manager. I would like to use iDialer for grandcentral dialing only (including phone contacts).

The next version of iDialer will have GrandCentral support and the ability to dial using a command line, like: "iDialer.exe 18005552222". How would you expect to be able to use it with your phone contacts? I'm not sure how to handle that...

I'm pretty sure there's a way to call the contact manager internally. Google Maps has a way to look up a contact's location based on the address stored for them. I'm not sure how to do that as I haven't coded for WM before.

Absent that, are you going to implement the grandcentral call logs?

Thanks, I'm looking forward to use this. It'll really help with craigslist meetups.

You, sir, are my hero. Thanks a lot for this. WinMo got left behind in the GC dialer world. Is there any way to disable the keypress tone?

I modified the ini file to use GrandCentral. When I dial a number and press the call button, iDialer disappears and no number is dialed. I am using an AT&T tilt with Sakajati's Hyperdragon Opal ROM from October 2nd.

When you place your call, you will receive an incoming call from your own GrandCentral number. Answer the call, and you will be connected to the recipient.

If you don't get a call, check your phone's internet connection.

[SnoopyDog]

Hi :) Thank you again for this update. Currently i'm using it with the attached skin and it works great. I had to replace the dialplan with "format=NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN" because here in germany we don't have fixed length prefixes. Maybe, i find some rules that make sense.

Two things:
Is it possible to display the name of the current network provider instead of "My Phone Number"? To me this makes more sense. Maybe, configurable.
My Samsung i900 reacts on different special codes without dialing them. Eg. *#0011# shows some kind of netmonitor. It would be nice if iDialer can pass these codes to the phone so i can get totally rid of the ugly default dialer.

Does anybody know if it's possible to reassign the left hardware button of the phone? I think you need to have a special DLL which has to be configured in the registry. Does anyone know, if some background information for doing this was already posted in this forum? Maybe, i have to look at MSDN (?)

[savior02]

I installed this but it doesn't work on my ppc when I go to my phone I get the regular phone and even when I go to program/Idialer.exe it launches but when I press talk it opens the default phone and calls. I been using the TF2D dialer this whole time with no problems any suggestions?

[SnoopyDog]

iDialer is currently not integrated to the system. This is why i'm asking about registry entries and so on...

But you can call it from within iContact. That's what i'm doing...

That's the intended operation for this version. It's a dial pad and relies on the built-in dialer (or GrandCentral) to place the call.

I have a couple of suggestions for future versions:


the backspace key does not have any visual nor aural feedback, it wold be useful if it could behave like any other key (i.e. blue highlight and beep);
if the call key could be a simple icon without any text, iDialer skin would not need any change for international users;
I would also prefer the operator name in the top bar :)


Thanks again for this great program.

Info about GrandCentral

GrandCentral Basics: About GrandCentral
Print

GrandCentral gives you 'One Number...for Life' -- a phone number that instead of being tied to a device or a location, is tied to you. Use GrandCentral to centralize your communication, customize your callers' experience, and make sure you never miss a call you want to take (or take a call you want to miss).

GrandCentral isn't just another VoIP call service. We've tapped into VoIP technology to build our service, but GrandCentral works with cell phones, desk phones, VoIP lines, and everything in between. There's nothing to download, upload, or install, and you don't have to make or take calls using a computer.

GrandCentral will let you define which phones ring, based on who's calling, and even let you ListenInTM on voicemail before answering the call. We use smart technology to route your calls. So, if you're already on a GrandCentral call, we'll recognize it and use call waiting to reach you on the phone you're on.

Note: At this time GrandCentral is only available in the U.S.

Google brought them out earlier this year and people haven't been able to sign up for new accounts in like the past 7 months.
I have an account and like it a lot the only problem is that I don't want to give out a new number to everyone so I let my mother use it since she needs a local number for people to contact her.

[kwoodall]

That's the intended operation for this version. It's a dial pad and relies on the built-in dialer (or GrandCentral) to place the call.

Is there any chance you'll be able to allow this to work for Smartphones (non-touchscreen) as well?

The bottom menu bar doesn't show up when you don't have iContact installed. Screen size shouldn't make a difference; square screens will just look smooshed. With v0.2 of iDialer, the bottom bar won't let you choose a contact anyway, you can use the command line argument: -choosecontact as described on my website.

If you want to use GrandCentral instead of your phone's dialer, set Type=grandcentral INSTEAD OF Type=default

if you live in the US, you want to ignore the dialplan stuff, it's correct.

The my cellnumber is the number you want displayed at the top of the screen. That's all it's used for.

I don't have my GPRS always on but have tried with it on and off but no luck.
My question is how does your app know to call my GC NUMBER. Sorry if I seem a bit daft.

[outphase]

You do not need type=grandcentral twice. Your GC number is grabbed from your GC account. It will call the phone number you have in the upper left corner to connect your call.

Also, try making sure you are actually connected to the internet first. An easy way to make sure you are connected is to browse to a web page in IE.

Hi Doug,

any chance of including a video call button?

[supbro]

I just released a new version of iContact, which has better compatibility with iDialer. You'll be able to dial your contacts using GrandCentral properly from iContact now.

[supbro]

Hi Doug,

I don't think so... I don't know how to do it, my phone doesn't have a video camera, and you can't do it through GrandCentral either.

[Keland44]

hmmm doesn't seem to be working for my wizard when i type in a number and hit call in idialer it just calls the number via my default dialpad it doesn't ring me from my grandcentral number first it dials the number direct
i made sure my settings were correct I have set Type=grandcentral INSTEAD OF Type=default
still doesn't seem to be working any suggestions?
I have ATT if that helps

[outphase]

Keland: Upload your settings file.

[supbro]

It is case sensitive, try "type" instead of "Type"

[Harry Tuttle]

I'm with Keeland44, without sounding like a moron can you show us what the ini. settings look like. I have it setup just like you said and it still wants to use the builtin dialer. I'm using a Uni WM5.

also, if you live in the U.S. there's no need to change anything below the [dialplan], they're really all needed

I've set up the settings.ini file to use with my GrandCentral account. The problem is that I don't get the call from GrandCentral when using my phone's internet connection. However, I am able to use the GrandCentral functionality when connected to my computer via USB/ActiveSync and using my computer's internet connection. Yes, I am POSITIVE that my phone's internet connection is functioning properly. I have the unlimited data plan from T-Mobile.

Any ideas?

The next version will have an error message displayed if an error occurs when communicating with GrandCentral. Until then it's difficult to tell. But maybe it's possible that your phone won't allow you to use the internet and voice at the same time (with GSM and maybe with EDGE I think this might be the case). You could set mycellnumber=[a different number] to see if that number gets dialed.

this is similar to my issue also i think the issue were running into is like what supbro said our phones won't let us do voice and data at the same time

I have AT&T, but I have only used it within 3G range. Voice and data should be independent in this case. The dialer is supposed to send out a data signal then receive the voice call.

[Harry Tuttle]

I have the $6 dollar plan, but I'm able to use my mobile browser to make calls so I don't think it's a proxy issue? Was Supbro (sorry had to do it) quick question, I downloaded Icontacts .80 and now I can't dial the contacts at all ; the wait cursor spins then brings me back to my contacts?

Yeah, you could be right if I connect thru PIE my connection is dropped when I recieve the call; does your app want a constant connection?

[outphase]

It's not voip at all. The way grandcentral dialing works is that the dialer reaches out to the internet to tell the gc server that it wants to dial X. The server then uses Level 3 Communications to call you to connect to your intended recipient. Your phone call occurs completely over your phone network and not the data network.

edit: I just tested it over Edge by disabling 3G. It works fine for me. I am connected to the mobile Internet without a proxy server.

[torchpants]

Argh! It works fine on my T-mobile Wing when connected via wi-fi. But iDialer isn't using my edge network connection for some reason.

[outphase]

Try disabling your proxy server. I know some stuff wouldn't work for me unless I did.

If changing the number didn't help, that means your phone isn't communicating with GrandCentral, (or the password is wrong, but obvi not since it works over activesync)

[supbro]

does your app want a constant connection?

I'm not positive, but I think you have to initiate the connection yourself. An easy way is to load up a web page first, then try iDialer. If this works for you guys I can try to figure out how to initiate the connection automatically in iDialer.

EDIT: I just verified that on my Mogul. I turned off "Data Connection" in the Comm manager, and then iDialer won't make the connection. Opened google.com in PIE, then went back to iDialer and retried the call, and it worked fine.

Obvi this is something I'll fix in the next version. Thanks for all the info.

[Harry Tuttle]

Guess I'll wait for the next version. An error message will be good and maybe even a ping feature to see if you are able to get to GC.

Thanks for all your efforts.

[DeathAxe]

The app looks pretty good and seems very resource efficient, what I thing is very important on mobile devices. I have a suggestion to make: Why don't you replace default dialer just like HTC by a certain hook? They use the following registry entry to let phcanhtc.dll handle drawing of windows' default dialer application. I don't know the API, but I am sure to find it on MSDN. This would in my mind be the most efficient way to integrate your dialer into the system. This would also automatically enable the hardware button to work. Maybe something like an xml-supporting skinning engine would be nice for skin-developers for customizing the dialer's appeareance. Thanks.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin]
"ext"="\\windows\\phcanhtc.dll"
"Enabled"=dword:00000001

[supbro]

I don't think your problem is the fault of iDialer. The only time it would use your phone's internet connection is when it's trying to make a GrandCentral call, and it uses your existing connection, and doesn't automatically connect to any network.

[appan]

Idialer is awsome, but is it possible to have a Config menu? or able to configure in to show the System Taskbar?

its a curious question? why is it showing our phone numbers on the top insted of the Phone service providers name?

also another suggection, after typing the number is it possible to Call the number by just pressing the Phone talk button insted of the iDialer Talk key?

with all these question, can you make a config? so people can choose these options ???

The number on top is there to inform you of which service you are using to dial. In the next version, you will be able to choose between making an outgoing call with your phone or through GrandCentral.

As for the green button, like I've said before, it's not easy to do and I'm working on it. It won't be in the next version unfortunately. I think it's going to have to be a separate program altogether that can run in the background.

Also, the next version will have a configuration script accessible through my website, that will output a .cab file that will set up all your options automatically. You just install iDialer.cab and iDialer-settings.cab and you're all set.

As soon as I get the web script finished, I'll give it to the donors and beta testers and if they don't find anything wrong it should only be a couple days after that when I'll release it to the public.

I hadn't thought of it from the "grandcentral account jacking" point of view. I was planning on using a POST form, so the usernames/passwords aren't in the request string. I guess you shouldn't trust the web form any more than you trust iDialer. But if you just don't want to enter anything on a web form, I'll give instructions on the relevant registry entries.

[kwoodall]

I'd still like to see iDialer useful for Smartphones as well. Preferably so that when called from iContactBE it can direct a call through GrandCentral without putting up a display of the (useless on smartphones) keypad.

I'd really like iContactBE (etc) to be able to flag which way you're calling within iContact as well.

[supbro]

Supbro,

Yes, I'd like to. I'm trying to figure out how to do it. It seems nobody else knows how...

http://www.supware.net/iDialer/faq/

[pp56825]

I found 3 ways to do that:
- Hadware Button mapping [Hbutton app]
pros: works fine
cons: battery and memory grain; if you map TALK button it will also execute idiler while answering the phone and there is no way to baypass this.
- pauldgroot which write Minimal dialer find a way and write own dll which replace standard SECdialer.dll with they own skins.
unfortunatly there is no skin for omnia :( and it is not integrated with icontact app [ i like it ]
- i find some program which enable to replace WM system files. EnableRAPI
I don't try it yet, so please be my guest and try to replace cprog.exe with idialer
posible that you need to add same parameters as used by cprog.exe like " -n %NUMER% or something like this

[pp56825]

i found beter solution today
check post created by us1111, unfortunatly this is not working for cprog.exe, cprog.exe it is not only dialer i think it is core prog in whole WM.

http://www.modaco.com/content-page/274737/updated-28-oct-08-custom-rom-manilla2d-with-flashlite-3-1-and-uc-dthj6-m2d02/page/380/

i have replace calllog with icontact and working fine
!!!!!unfortunatly it's not working for cprog.exe after repacing it i have broke my WM :(

few problems which i got before i found that it's not working:
- performance: it takes time [~1,5 sec ] to start idialer first time its not too much but if you are making it as a default dialpad app it should start immediate :) i know maybe i'm too challenging, but i'm just telling about my feelings
- i can't exit from iDialer using END button, but i can do this when i change tab to icontact.

I think that only solution is that which was found by pauldgroot and write own DLL which replace SECdialer.dll and will be compatibile with icontact app with the own skins

[blackangst]

Couple of things. First, when using with SPC shell...sometimes I use the green "dial" button to dial a number, and the default dialer comes up. Second, with a couple of themes built on SPB (only two I tried) there is a contacts quick button page....and on that page is an icon to bring up contact list. Unfortunatly it brings up the old school one not this one. Also on the face of these themes when I hit the missed calls icon it brings up the old call list.

Is there something Im missing to integrate this? Or is this part of the WM6.1 "feature"?

[fealtious]

Hi all.
thanks for all the effort u put in doug.

Maybe iDialer is stored on "\Storage Card\Program Files" and iContact is installed on "\Program Files". They have to both be installed in the same location (either both on storage card or both in main memory). I'd recommend both in main memory, however it should work the other way too...

Yes, that's upcoming in the next version. That's actually why I made it display the phone number in the titlebar... you'll be able to click there to change whether it does GC or standard dialing. The phone number is supposed to indicate the number you're making the call from, since it's not always going to be your cell phone number.

Are those real numbers? If they're feature codes, it's true... that's why iDialer can't completely replace your phone's default dialer. Each carrier customizes the dialer with their own feature codes. I don't even know all the feature codes for my own carrier (Sprint), much less those for Vodafone.

Is there any reason icontact and idialer are not integrated into the same app? It would be nice if you just had icontact and could turn on on option to use idialer.

If not, then maybe add a note on both programs pages that says they need to be installed on the same disk to work together. I might have NEVER figured that out!

If you use iContactBE you can run iContact Config (iContactCfg.exe) or manually edit settings.ini. There's a tab "Anwendungen" (for us germans, maybe "Applications" for the english ones) where you can set up the dialer application to:
EN: \Storage Card\Program Files\iDialer\iDialer.exe
DE: \Speicherkarte\Programme\iDialer\iDialer.exe

-> in settings.ini:
DialerAppplication= \Storage Card\Program Files\iDialer\iDialer.exe

I think the main reason is choice!

Combining the two either wastes code doing nothing, or forces people to use both when they only want one.

I personally would love to see the two integrated, but it's down to supbro to make that decision, not us!

[sharpstar]

can i use two type contacts?i just want to use two:one is the default built in wm6.1,the others is this app icontact,and i can switch them,
how can i set?
because when i installed the app,and i click the contact,it just go into the icontact app,can't use the default contact,all of them have the differect feature,so i want to use both.
sorry for my english

[sharpstar]

i just say the icontact, not the idialer,because i find the icontact when i use the i dialer.

[l3v5y]

If you have iContact installed, you'll need to go to Start->Programs->Outlook Contacts to load the default contact app.

[nir36]

Thx 4 the help above. For those who use iContacteBE with UltimateM2D theme (like me ;) ) I've added a iDialer skin that fits the iContactBE.

no credits to the originator? :)

[KZIWarrior]

Love the dialer, works great with your iContacts on my Tilt (running NATF v5 ROM)...

I know this is probably not the correct place to post but does anyone have a GrandCentral invite. I'm in the middle of a move and it would greatly help with managing all my calls (job interviews, apt finding ect.).

Thanks for the work on the dailer and iContacts.

[supbro]

There's a new version available today, v0.3. Please see the first post for details.

[mike21pr]

very very nice!!! thank you very much, any chance for an in-call setup also??? i would like to completely replace mt stock dialer with this one but i hate to see the stock in-call screen when i place a call...

[supbro]

Yeah, that would be nice... I want to work on that next, after the next version of iContact is released.

[l3v5y]

In working on a C++ version of my dialer (FSD), I discovered some functions of GAPI that let you capture the Call/End hardware buttons. If that's of interest to you, I can PM you the relevant bits of code!

[nir36]

oof.. the more iDialer grows, the more i'm depressed as i can't use it's internet services.

cheers for the hard work supbro. this is really cool.

[harty83]

Love the program!!

Couple of questions:

1) Love the new feature of being able to toggle services. Can you implement it so that it only toggles what is available? Right now I only use my phone (att) and grandcentral. I have to hit the titlebar 4 times to get back to grandcentral.

2) Option to disable the dialing tone. I really do hate dialing tones :-)

Thanks for this awesome app! Can't wait till it can totally replace the built in dialer :-)

Never mind on this one. I used the online config and it placed "phone" for all the other available services. I deleted "phone" from the registry entries and now it only toggles the two. Thanks!

[harty83]

Added secret exitOnMinimize setting for A_C

Oooh...big fan of A_C's apps. What does he have planned for us with iDialer? :-)

[devinc]

I must be doing something wrong, because it still does not seem to be integrated with icontact.

I have icontact (Burt's edition).

My issues:

1. Is there any way to make idialer my default dialer? I hit my phone key on my Xv 6800 and it calls up the standard dialer.

2. I go into icontact and select a contact's phone number and it calls up the default dialer, not idialer.

3. If I hit the contact buttons at the bottom of idialer, it goes to icontacts. I then select a contact to call and it calls up the default dialer, not idialer. That sort of defeats the purpose somewhat...doesn't it?

Of these, #1 is the biggest issue.

A quick solution to number one is use AE Button Plus and set your phone key to bring up iDialer

[tatnai]

I have a problem. I'm using iContact Burt's Edition. From within iContact, short press or long press of the dialer button brings up the default dialer. iContact settings are set to iDialer. How to I get this to work, or can it?

Thanks a bunch, this adds a whole new level of functionality to my phone with easy access dialing using grandcentral!

[dingolino]

did you set the path for iDialer correctly in iConfig?

if the path is wrong than automaticly the default Dialer will be used.

Because there is a pre setting of the english path of the file, but for a german OS you need to rename "program file" with "programme" for example.

At least this was the case some weeks ago, maybe this is fixed now.

Best regards,

Claus

For me it is working without problems

[JohnSpeer]

Nice software.

I have been using iDialerv2 for about 10 days, and updated to iDialerv3 today. I like how effective the soft is at accessing GrandCentral using my WM5 PPC6700. This is quite an improvement over accessing the GrandCentral mobile website via a browser. I have had no problems using iDialer with the regular Sprint service. iDialer is also well integrated with iContact (whatever version).

Although I am just a user (not a programmer), I would make the following observations:

1. The intent of some of what is showing in the v3 registry is not clear to me. The settings.ini of v2 was somewhat clearer to me.
2. While v3 offers more features, the v3 size is some 25% less than that in v2!
3. The toggle between phone services at the top of v3 is a much better way of handling changes than editing the v2 settings.ini.
4. A phone number (with and without “-“ as a separator) entered in the <service”n”title> registry key shows at the top of v3, but does not seem to be sent to GrandCentral when using that service. (The v3 call to me from GrandCentral is always made to the mobile phone number set on the GrandCentral mobile website.) In v2, changing a phone number in the settings.ini caused the newly set phone number to ring. Is this as intended in v3, or do I need to make some other registry changes? The v2 handling is quite useful for changing the phone number GrandCentral causes to ring, e.g., using a temporary landline.
5. If the phone is on and no data service is active, v3 does force a data connection. If the mobile phone is not on, a phone connection is not activated in v3. Perhaps you could offer a choice of starting wifi or a phone service in a future version.
6. I use the ok button with quickmenu to easily terminate v2. This does not work with v3. This does not seem a big deal as both v2 and v3 terminate if the left top corner is touched.

I like what you are doing with this app, and I am looking forward to trying any future improvements.

I have done that. My question is where do you enter your username and password?
On the site it only gives the option to choose the services you need.

I keep getting the following messages:

1) unable to connect: 0x24
2)ERROR: unable to login to GrandCentral

My internet is working fine.

Appreciate the Help.

When you choose GrandCentral from the dropdown on the config. website, a "username" and "password" box will appear. If they don't, maybe you have javascript disabled on your browser.

*Edit* Maybe you are trying to access the config tool from PIE? You should use your desktop computer. The site hasn't been optimized for mobile. I just tested and it doesn't even work right with Opera Mobile.

same here...when i press the talk button on my elf the defauly WM dialer comes up...the only time the idialer comes up is when i use icontact wich i love equally. it would make my day to see the idialer be my default dialer.....hint hint....anyone know how to do this

[mtrax]

Could someone explain how I can insert my own dialplan format

eg I would like to format like (99) 9999-9999

Your format would work, if you entered all 11 digits. You have to have one line for each number of digits to match. So for that format:

1_(N_)
1_(NN)
1_(NN)_N
1_(NN)_NN
1_(NN)_NNN
1_(NN)_NNNN-
1_(NN)_NNNN-N
1_(NN)_NNNN-NN
1_(NN)_NNNN-NNN
1_(NN)_NNNN-NNNN

You cannot simply enter the last line because iDialer will not be able to figure out when you want to display the non-numeric characters. For instance, with two digits entered, iDialer would not know if it should display "1 (N ) -" or "1 (N )" or "1 (N"

Your program at a set *100 # gives out the message on an error - there is no network signal, or wrong number. Whether your program can by pressing buttons instead of a sound signal vibrate phone?

Thank you very much!

[smotrs]

Question. Couldn't find it mentioned on any of the 21 pages or on the authors actual website. Does this replace the existing dialer currently installed on a phone or is it a seperate dialer all together, meaning we would now have two on the phone, this one and the default?

[stephanilson]

This dialler won't stop you being able to use video dialling, but you'll need to use a different app (the default one maybe?) to make a video call!

If there are no special characters in your dial plan (like space, "-", "(", ")") then there is no need for a custom dial plan for your country, just use generic.

The string you gave won't match until you dial all 8 or 10 digits. The plan has to match exactly, that's why in previous posts I've written many more than 3 patterns to match. Yours would look something like this, you might want to tweak it slightly depending on your taste.

(04___)
(04N__)
(04NN_)
(04NNN)
(04NNN)_N
(04NNN)_NN
(04NNN)_NNN
(04NNN)_NNNN
(04NNN)_NNNNN

(0N)
(0N)_N
(0N)_NN
(0N)_NNN
(0N)_NNNN
***You might want to replace previous line with (0N)_NNNN- (with trailing "-")
(0N)_NNNN-N
(0N)_NNNN-NN
(0N)_NNNN-NNN
(0N)_NNNN-NNNN

***You may omit any that are simply "N" with no special characters.
NNNN-N
NNNN-NN
NNNN-NNN
NNNN-NNNN



I've split them up onto multiple lines so you can see it easier. You should concatenate with ";" when storing in your registry (and remove the *** comments I've written).


EDIT: maybe in the next version I will make it easier :)

[sackcloth]

the generated configuration on your page is missing the <?xml version="1.0"?> which didn't allow wm to install the cab.

[supbro]

For all the non-US folks: I've already written a better dialplan parser. It works more like you'd expect. I also have duplicated the code in javascript for the configuration web page so you can test it out before installing it on your phone. You can test a new dial plan with a test number, and it will update in real time. Just click "advanced" to modify the dial plan. This won't generate the .cab for you yet but you can play with it:

Here's some good news. I've figured out how to embed iDialer as the default dialer when pressing the Green "Talk" button. Just install a tiny app I've written, GreenButton:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=3076920

I've made a few other updates to iDialer, I'll publish as soon as possible.

[supbro]

A new version is available v0.4, with the following updates:


Added hardware keyboard button support
Added "Country Code" and "My Number" settings for JaJah and GrandCentral
Added better debugging messages
Now allows "p" and "w" in phone numbers dialed from phone book
Improved dial plan support
Added better "long press" feedback
Added long press "1" = call voicemail


Go get it from my site (http://supware.net/iDialer)!

I have installed iDialer and GreenButton but when i press the talk button the default dialer shows up...what am i doing wrong?

What type of phone do you have? And do you have a special shell running? It's possible that GreenButton won't run on a customized phone. Also, make sure you installed iDialer on the phone (not on storage card).

GreenButton is somewhat hacky, and probably doesn't work on every single phone with every single configuration.

Ops, my eyes never wander down past the signature line, sorry. If you know how to use ccspy.exe with your phone, I can help you to get GreenButton working. The key is to figure out which window receives the green button clicks. What I've set it for is "HHTaskBar", but I'd guess that's different on the Elf. I could (and should) make that window class name a configurable item too. Let me know.

I'm glad you liked iDialer. Sorry to hear you switched over to the dark side :). But iDialer was modeled directly after the iPhone, so you should feel right at home. If you're looking for the GrandCentral functionality, there's an app available in the app store called GrandDialer.

[JohnSpeer]

Thanks for the new revision to this app. Keyboard support works well!

The addition of myNumber to the registry of idialerv4 works for me. I have set up two service types: GrandCentral and Sprint(the mobile phone service provider). If myNumber is set to the phone’s mobile number, I can dial (and receive on the mobile) using Sprint or GrandCentral. If I manually set myNumber to a temporary landline, I can dial via GrandCentral and receive the call on the temporary landline number. Also, if I manually set myNumber to a temporary landline, I can still dial a regular mobile phone call via Sprint. Great!

However, I find that idialer isn't as easy to use with a temporary landline number as I had hoped. Once a temporary landline is used, it seems necessary to manually check/change the number in registry for all GrandCentral calls (whether a person wants to use the permanent mobile number or a temporary landline number). Is there an easier way for a user of idialerv4 to switch between GrandCentral (or other service type) using a temporary line and the permanent mobile number?

If not, would you consider modifying the Service Title switch to rewrite the myNumber registry entry with a “call from” number specific to each service type? If this were done, I think a user could set up a permanent GrandCentral service type that would always use the mobile number to call from. The user would switch to that GrandCentral service type most of the time. A user could also create a separate GrandCentral service type for temporary landline use. Only when there is a need to use a temporary landline number, would the user manually check/change the temporary number in the separate GrandCentral service type. This would eliminate the manual registry check/change needed when using GrandCentral with the mobile number.

[iggy]

Excellent work Supbro, just a quick update required for the iDialer Online Config, could you allow for more numbers in the phone number dialed (to enable adding p and password for VM) or at least when pressing the 1 have it use the internal VM setup which I have already setup to use the P plus password.

[sitelister]

I must say the dialer is great, but is there any chance of adding smart dialing in there? (read: filter contacts by dialing their names). That's pretty much what's missing there for it to be a killer app for me.

Otherwise, is it possible to get the source code for this?

I just install idialer, but I haven't the look that I see on the screenshots. I cannot see the bottom bar with the icons, no matter which skin I choose. What I'm doing wrong? My device is eten glofiish X600 with wwe wm6.1 rom.

Great job! ...there's no way to disable key tones? thanks

Those won't show up if you don't also have iContact installed. Without iContact installed, those buttons wouldn't do anything anyway.

Of course, turn down the volume on your phone :)

Thanks for the new revision to this app. Keyboard support works well!

The addition of myNumber to the registry of idialerv4 works for me. I have set up two service types: GrandCentral and Sprint(the mobile phone service provider). If myNumber is set to the phone’s mobile number, I can dial (and receive on the mobile) using Sprint or GrandCentral. If I manually set myNumber to a temporary landline, I can dial via GrandCentral and receive the call on the temporary landline number. Also, if I manually set myNumber to a temporary landline, I can still dial a regular mobile phone call via Sprint. Great!

However, I find that idialer isn't as easy to use with a temporary landline number as I had hoped. Once a temporary landline is used, it seems necessary to manually check/change the number in registry for all GrandCentral calls (whether a person wants to use the permanent mobile number or a temporary landline number). Is there an easier way for a user of idialerv4 to switch between GrandCentral (or other service type) using a temporary line and the permanent mobile number?

If not, would you consider modifying the Service Title switch to rewrite the myNumber registry entry with a “call from” number specific to each service type? If this were done, I think a user could set up a permanent GrandCentral service type that would always use the mobile number to call from. The user would switch to that GrandCentral service type most of the time. A user could also create a separate GrandCentral service type for temporary landline use. Only when there is a need to use a temporary landline number, would the user manually check/change the temporary number in the separate GrandCentral service type. This would eliminate the manual registry check/change needed when using GrandCentral with the mobile number.


Ok, so you want a different "my phone number" for each service. You're right, iDialer wasn't written with the intention of changing the source number. In fact, I only added that for people whose phones weren't compatible with the automatic phone number detection. It's a fine line between ease-of-use (with not too many options) and flexibility. But I'll look into adding that.

I Have iContact installed too but again these buttons don't show. Need some configuration to appear?

iContact and iDialer have to both be installed in the same memory (I recommend both on "Device", but can both be on "Storage Card")

Now it works! Thank you very much.

Now it works! Thank you very much.

Good! I added that question to the iDialer FAQs page.

Thanks. I appreciate that you will consider this. Let me know if you want me to test.

Does that mean the two are now dependant on each other? If so, is there any reason not to include iDialer in iContact (if you can work out some way of not having to distribute the iDialer specific code)?
