Apache WM6 Kitchen CE OS 5.2.1908 (Build 18508.0.7.0) - UPDATED 20071217

[jspenc3]

After trying all of the dialers I have a question. How do we get to the non-keypad screen (the one with speakerphone, call history, speed dial, etc)?

The iBliss and RAF ones have extra buttons...but I really want the bigger buttons of the HTC models so using iBliss or RAF are out for me.

run the createshortcuts.bat file in your installation directory again.

when you are in a call, it should go to that mode automatically..if not, the left soft button does the trick..

My phone has Contacts and Menu as the soft buttons. Nothing to get to the "status" or whatever that screen is called.

That's considered to be the "in call" screen and thus only shows once you have an active call. I don't know of a way to change that behavior but you can work around it.

Call History is available on all dialpads (on the big button style it is directly above the 3 key). As for Speed Dial I suggest you install an app called Smartskey (it is in the kitchen under General Utilities I believe). That will reassign your joystick when in the phone app... up does Speed Dial, down does Call history, right does Contacts, and left opens up messaging (those can also be re-assigned by editing the smartskey.ini file in the \Windows directory on your PC).

Yes, like luv said, you have to be in a call to get to that screen...

Greetings from New England! As others have applauded... "Great Job" to each and every one of you that have contributed to the greater good of this growing collective!

Imagine... folks who wouldn't recognize each other in a crowded-of-one... eagerly working "side-by-side" yet, in most cases... WORLDS apart... for a single goal.

How kewl is that...?!

No soccer match, political race, or building construction could match the (literally) INTERNATIONAL team work that went into this.... you should ALL be proud of your efforts.

And that goes for the more pedestrian members of PPCGeeks, as well. If not for US... these talented few would only be talking to themselves. It is folks like us (the research volunteers, the foot soldiers of the battle.. the lab rats and test monkeys) who have been hovering over their shoulders, listening in on their conversations, trying out their handiwork... and reporting back what we found.

For the most part... it's the latter that helped to make this new and improved Kitchen what it is today. Without our collective ranting and suggestions, they would have had little to go on, save but for their own creative notions. Like folks who invest in tiny plots of land to save a historic battlefield... know that your personal input has no doubt helped to make this new Kitchen what it is!

For each and every one of us that contributed an observation or posted an inquiry... this is OUR Kitchen! We added to the mix... a pinch of herb here, a dash of salt there, a spoon full of sugar, a dollup of honey, (a little red wine on a slow simmer...). Eat hearty and enjoy!

As for my original inquiry... What cellular carriers will this latest Kitchen work with? As with VerizonGuy's latest attempt... is there an install guide that permits you (us) to select which carrier we are using - and then installs all the necessary Sprint, Verizon, etc. software...? Just curious, a I'm sure others have similar thoughts - before making the leap.

Congrats guys!

Guess I can forget about getting any work done for the next day or so

Ahh, OK, nevermind then. Since I just flashed the history is blank, it just seemed like these new HTC dialers were missing something from my old WM5 Paulya dialer. Sounds like I can get used to it and everything is working fine.

Thanks for the info and the great work you're all doing!
