Have you already tried AnswerKeyDisabler?

[MisterSosa]

Or sensorlock / styluslock ?

[arh_3000]

Im also after a HD type dialer but im sure its only a matter of time before someone ports it for the diamond from the HD. In the long run hopfully HTC will release the newer TF3D with the dialer for our diamonds

[Luckyfox777]

i am really lookin for a dialer like HD has but not 3rd party programs that enable/disable smth

[DomSim]

Any screenies ;-)

hey i even found original HD dialer,

It is beautifull, but not adapted to our Diamond screen. It misses the bottom row of the buttons. We still have some homework to do!

hey are your reading my posts? of course it's not adapted cause it's original HD dialer, that's why i have created this theme requesting someone to port this dialer for us

[groofoo]

i really like to have this on my raphael.
so if there is someone to know how to port it then it would be higly appreciated.

[Driskol]

Ive extracted the cab succesfully and the only thing to do, i guess, is downscale the graphics to the VGA Resolution, but i dont know how much i need to downscale the grafics to fit it to VGA...

The touch HD is WVGA (480x800) and the Raphael is VGA (480x640)
I'm not sure if just scaling the graphics will be enough but it's the right place to start.

It wouldn't b enough to resize the graphics... there are a lot of to do

[Krzysiec]

I really dont need Touch HD manilla ... the only reason of havinf HD is that dialer ! If it works on Diamond i would not buy HD ever.

I thought as much. Hopefully someone has more time than I do to take a hack at this. I'd love this dialer as well.

Ofcourse I'm reading your posts! Actually, I follow this whole thread with great expectation :D.

In now way I ment to critisize your attachment, I do realize that you didn't claim anything else the redistribute the original HD Dialer, but....

I thought it would add some information to all readers to explain what this package would do on our Diamonds so it would be clear what work has to be done. I'm joining this community for some time now, and I did forsee some future miscommunication..... That's all!! :p

Different device, same UI, similar problems and discussions.
The discussion there is porting the QVGA to a VGA device and the HD is a WVGA to VGA port.
At least from an image scaling point of view the HD version seems more portable since the images won't be blown up 2x.

Still, the big challenge in either case, as someone mentioned earlier, is porting the functionality rather than just resizing images.

[Luckyfox777]

i agree with fireweed.
i assume that there is small part of code regarding the slide to answer or ignore, and if it could be posible to just change this part of code instead of code which makes 2 buttons(answer and ignore) so this way no need to part anything else, just a part of code

[MrPhilly]

I was more trying to demonstrate that you were asking a question that had already been investigated. I know that so far, it appears that there is no real solution..

I never tried it myself but did you download the Opal skin, etc and see how it looked..?

You could always assist in trying to solve this issue yourself..?

[Luckyfox777]

MrPhilly
hehe, that is another theme, they want to port dialer from Opal which has 240x320 screen, but here we want to ask someone to port from HD :D
i really can size down the images, and i could try to edit .dll if i knew where to look at, and also if i had .dlls from actual diamond dialer

[groofoo]

so what do i need to port this?
is there a guide to port?
do i need programming knowledge?

could someone point me in the right direction in how to port?

THere is a NEW ROM 1.97 from VOdafone for Diamond which hav ethis dialer so maybe someone could Extract it from the ROM ? There is no need to remap anything just extract :) Anybody know how to make it ? Any developer ? Please help ;) Would be great !

Awesome ! If U make it I`ll be in seventh heaven! Please post here after that here ! ;)

[sibbor]

thx for advice i will try to extract it.Any progress yet? ^^

[PaNa-S]

sorry im at work and im off until 7 pm spanish hour. this dialer doesnt have slide to answer I think only have the slide in the 'incall' window to cover the buttons, but i will continue with this in home ;)

[Krzysiec]

Anyway this is some kind of solution for our problems... So doesnt matter for me it hasn`t got slide ... with this i cannot answer a call accidentaly ... So of its ready please post here ! I can`t wait for this !

[mclein]

the rom 1.97, just get the slider when you make a call, not when you recive a call .... : (

[nuke1]

It only solves 50% of the problem, it's an in-call sliding mechanism so you don't end the call while speaking on the phone!

[PaNa-S]

cannot get working. But I think the best way to have this running ok is porting the TOuch HD dialer for Diamond, this haves the slide to answer and is extracted, the Cab is in XDA :)

[Krzysiec]

But it is not VGA :(

[zoolake]

this all sounds very promising

[mun_rus]

And it will be very hard to do. Button's action areas positions are hardcoded and can't be edited with restorator or reshacker

[Krzysiec]

Maybe i don`t understand but ...it is easier to remap something that is already done for VGA ...than from WVGA (Touch HD) If there is problem with get to work VGA version i don`t want to imagine about WVGA ...

[PaNa-S]

yes is easier this, but the VGA version doesnt have "slide to answer" only have slide on the incall buttons.

so bad news... hope HTC give us a new ROM with the HD dialer for the raphael or diamond....

Cheers and thanks for the information ;)

[Krzysiec]

But this curtain is active while incominc call ? I mean i have to put curtain down to answer ?(there are answer button under curtain yes?) If yes ... that is something i can have instead of sliding ... If anybody can make a CAB with this working on Diamond (i don`t want to flash new ROM because of warranty )

you can always switch back to original SPL and ROM, for warranty purpose.
advantages of a cooked rom beat any warranty issues you might ever have.

No curtain when receiving calls!!! It´s just over the dialpad so it´s still possible to pick up the call mistakenly from your pocket :o

[Krzysiec]

I don`t get such a stupid IDEA ! Why they didn`t make it in incall ... I thougt we got solution but ... STUPID HTC !

[rondol1]

I agree it is just half a solution. In fact it is the same functionality as before, but then the screen was turned of to protect against unwanted softkey pressing. The screen will stay on now, but the buttons are covered up. We can reach them by sliding the cover down, just as we could before by pressing the navigation button to turn on the screen.

Hi jcespi2005,

I saw from all your post that your are a kind of guru in ROM cooking, I would need your help. Actually I contribute to cegcc open source project and we have an issue you could solve.
See my post here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=438676&page=31

Is there any update on this HD Dialer being ported from the Touch HD or is it a dying cause?

[ronenpg]

hey i even found original HD dialer,

Hey,

Please give me zip/rar file with HD original Dialer (like the cab but extract) and I will fit this images files to VGA!

Here you are. Hope you can manage to port it.

[Krzysiec]

But fitting them to VGA is NOT ENOUGH ! U must remap .dll file to change touch area i think.

[Yuna]

have you tried, if you say so?

[ronenpg]

Yes i know... :)

[ronenpg]

Here you are. Hope you can manage to port it.

Thanks! Lets try it... :D

[Krzysiec]

looking forward for Your work ;)

[ronenpg]

If you want, you can try this one (if you don't have it already) it's only the Phone Curtain but it's working great and it's clean!! (without unnecessariness files!!) + NoSleep!!


:cool:

[Krzysiec]

But does it appear when call is coming ? Because curtain didn`t appear so far when call was comming. And answer and End button were still there to accidentally answer call.

[ronenpg]

looking forward for Your work ;)

I can't read the file: phcanhtc.dll (it's not a problem it's locked!) so if anyone know how to load this file, please tell me... (i was trying sevral apps without luck), stuck for now.

Who is know how to control phcanhtc.dll file, know how to control the answering by side! any clue?

[ronenpg]

No, the curtain appear after the call taken.

[Krzysiec]

So it `is useless for me ;) Becuse i thought this will be kind of secure for accidteally call answer ...

[kikakeule]

well whats about changing the curtains trigger to appear even before call is taken? so it should lock the answer and ignore keys?

[Krzysiec]

Oh ! that would be SOMETHING ! But is it possible ?

[ronenpg]

For this issue you can use S2U2 or simple use the Diamond Internal Lock.
But don't worry, I will keep seeking... :cool:

Glad theres is still hope and i appreciate you looking into it :). If this ends up possible i think it will be used by the majority of the diamond users as its a perfect solution and works really well on the touch hd

[kikakeule]

since when the diamond interal lock or even s2u2(without slide to answer) lock the answer and ignore button?
oh... yes.... they dont^^

i wanted to say:
we dont really NEED slide to answer as we got hardware keys to get or ignore a call, we need a solution locking the answer and ignore buttons to not accidential touch them without installing another program draining battery power, ram and cpu cycles...^^ so a shield/curtain would do it as well as phone canvas with slide to answer ;-)

[Krzysiec]

We think very similar ;) You said all what i think about it :)

Tried this and it did nothing (no phone curtain was shown).

Would love the HD dialer on the Diamond, so everyone keep up the good work :)

Really, if you don't mind me asking, which network are you using? and could you post some screen shots from your phone?

Several of us CDMA users have tried but it only bunged up our phone. So if you followed the above and got it working, any additional information and screenshots showing it would go along way to assuring us.

It's not that we don't believe you, its just that we had to hard reset our phone to fix it. :) so I'd rather not have to HR again just after I reinstalled everything back to the condition it was before trying the install.

Hope you understand.

Well, hopefully someone figures it out on a stock Sprint (or other) ROM. Would really like to get this on my phone. :) And thanks for sharing by the way.
