Those won't show up if you don't also have iContact installed. Without iContact installed, those buttons wouldn't do anything anyway.
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")
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)?
noobie question:
when I press the green call button on the idialer screen the dialer reverts back to the ugly windows dialer and the phone starts to dial/make the call using the ugly dialer instead of idialer.
I thought idialer got rid of the default dialer completely
is there a fix for this or is it in the works? or I need to RTFM to fix it?

As far as I've found so far, there isn't really a way of stopping this happen. I'm trying to work out a work around for my own dialer, and I suspect supbro is doing the same for this.
@supbro: if I work out a way around WM stealing the screen I'll let you know.
No, they're not dependent on each other... there's just no easy way I know of to find the location of iDialer from iContact and vice versa. But I want to keep the programs seperate for flexibility, and for faster load times.
You can use the GAPI to capture the green button, it will be sent to your program as a WM_KEYDOWN / WM_KEYUP messages. It's easy too, just use GXOpenInput.

I don't like this solution, though, because it also captures ALL of the hardware buttons; the volume buttons, "Home" button, "back" button, everything, will no longer work, or you will have to handle them all manually.
So that's why I wrote GreenButton. If you install GreenButton, iDialer will work the way you want it.

supbro - do you ever see possibility of your giving user OPTION to show photos
supbro, I know the evolution of the iContact application has been a multi-threaded one. I don't know its earliest origins other that the crediting you give to larna. I also understand, from asking you in another thread a few months back, that Burt's version of iContact was built on your development work. I am not looking for any kind of pin-pointing of which code pieces come from which party -- as it seems to me that collaboration is the whole spirit of XDA.
So, I am asking this question not from a point of view of my having followed every version and every thread from you and Burt & others in the diversion of paths, but: All I know is I like being able to scroll through and pick a contact by image. My brain processes information much more quickly that way than proocessing letter-sequences of names.
I am just guessing - but do not know - that you opted to not enable any kind of picture display on LIST view for speed/performance/load reasons. And I would only guess that, as a result, your versions are faster to load and operate than are Burt's.
So I want to ask: Is it definitive? You will not ever add the option for a user to SELECT having photos in list view? Because for me, from my own usability perspective (vs eye candy), no photos is a "deal breaker". Which is a real shame, because then I can never enjoy the benefit of your tight integration with idialer and green button.
I respect your determination of how you want to develop your own software. what I don't get though is why, even if it is something you personally do not like or want as a feature, you seem unopen to providing a feature set that SOME people want & like -- and we're willing to suffer the performance hit for the usability of the visual sorting it provides.
Similarly, I really need my Contact manager to display NOTES details.
The reason I am asking this here is: If I know for sure that you will not likely add those features as options, then I regretably will opt to use Burt's iContact, and "suffer" the lack of integration.
Thank you very much for what is an awesome suite of development you've done... and i would love to have you open a new thread at some point smply to explain your company's offering... I, as of now, don't understand it. Nor do I understand, yet, how to use Grand Central on my WM device.
sorry for the length of msg !

My comment is that after the call is placed, WM takes control - the in call screen is all WM.
I've used GAPI, and am using it in current things, but see your point about not wanting it to capture other keys.
I see your points.
For the loading of iDialer from iContact, the install directory can be found in the registry.
Code:
LPCWSTR iContactPath()
{
LPCWSTR installedFolder;
HKEY hkey;
LONG result = RegOpenKeyEx(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, TEXT("Software\\Apps\\supware.net iContact"), 0,
KEY_QUERY_VALUE, &hkey); // Where app install data is stored
if (result == 0)
{
char data[200] = ""; // buffer for path
DWORD buffersize = 200; // size of buffer
RegQueryValueEx(hkey, TEXT("InstallDir"), NULL, NULL, (BYTE*) &data, &buffersize);
RegCloseKey(hkey);
installedFolder = (LPTSTR) data; // convert to LPWCSTR
StringCchCat((LPTSTR)installedFolder, MAX_PATH, L"\\iContact.exe"); // Concatenate iContact exe path
return installedFolder; // return the full path
}
else
{
return L""; // return a default path
}
}
Don't damn us, we are all suffering.
If you want to damn someone then damn the F***ing Bureaucrats in the government and Civil Service.
why? VOIP isn't forbidden or anything. we just do everything as slow as possible...
we could've had a complete voip system going on with WiMax support in most major cities if it wasn't for our laziness.
