Re: New Dialer with contact pictures shown

1. The dialer is from Leo: it is 2G with conference call function. Old themes are not compatible because this version is newer, with a lot of changing in internal files. Sorry at the moment i have not my pc to control build number of Leo and original Rhodiu dialers. Search on XDA for dialer skins in the Leo section: they will work.

2. I only verified that in landscape mode everything is sized and positioned correct. I don't use dialer in landscape mode, so i don't know if when a call/other activities are finished, the dialer reverts to portrait mode. Maybe a reg edit can fix this.

3. Maybe i type slow, but the dialer never disappeared when i was typing on it.


Only a few files are needed to revert back to the old dialer (4/5/6 dll and maybe nothing more, i have to look, but until monday i can't).
Monfro, I'm hoping you did not take offense to my post personally. I do realize that you were trying to make the TP2 ROMs the best they can be.

I sort of figured the modified dialer from the Leo. I am looking for Leo dialer themes to see if those work.

I do have THREE other issues on top of the dialer items from my other post:

1. (slightly serious) With this LEO dialer mod, I am UNABLE to get the MSL now via that GetMSL tool - the one I've always used and is now in the wiki - or the old fashion way via registry entries. On BOTH of my units (one is used, the other was literally new in the box non refurb). If I flash back to Feb.27 with the stock dialer, bam... GetMSL works within 2 minutes on both units. I flashed them to Mar.21 and GetMSL fails again.

Can someone else confirm if GetMSL (or another MSL tool) works with Mar.21 ROMs for Sprint users? If you ran it before, be sure the the \AtLog directory is removed/renamed.

I can only assume one of the files from the Leo dialer is preventing the AT codes on the Sprint units from triggering the MSL debug output since that is really a GSM dialer. Note I did manually check the atdbg.txt files for the MSL debugging text and on the Leo output there is nothing even after 30+ minutes of activity. With the Feb.27 debug files, about 1 min 26 secs after coming up... was able to get the "rMSL" line needed.


2. (flaky) Trying to get to EPST (##778#) on these Sprint units with Mar.21, it takes multiple attempts to get to it. Especially after a fresh reboot/restart. This is reproducible on both units. After EPST is accessed for the first time though, subsequent attempts are fine.

Can someone else confirm this?

3. (minor annoyance) When the keyboard is slid out, and you are in forced landscape mode in the dialer, try looking at call history or contacts. Go back to the dialer (BACK softkey). The canvas repaints in portrait mode. That I mentioned before. Now look at the keypad deploy soft button in the middle where the SIP icon usually goes. It gets placed off center now.

Not a big deal for #3, and probably easily fixed.


Again I can confirm these items on both of my units with Mar.21.
I've tried both ROMs with nothing installed via XDA_UC (eg, virgin flashes). For disclosure I flashed:

Energy.RHODCDMA.29017.Sense2.5.Mar.21.7z
Energy.RHODCDMA.29017.Sense2.5.Cookie.2.0.Mar.21.7 z
