I currently use cLaunch to launch a few of my favorite programs from the Today screen. I was wondering if anyone knew how to put speed dial buttons on it similar to T-Mobiles MyFaves so that I can one touch call important people. Please let me know if you can do this on cLaunch or if there is a better program for the job. Thanks in adavance.

you can look for the treo speepdial app, or look at one of the programs on www.vijay555.com I forget which one it is, but you can make a shortcut to a phone number, and then apply whatever icon you want to it in claunch (such as their photo).

You can do this with iLauncher, but it is not a free program.

Also, you can do this differently using WM5NewMenu on the XDA forums.

Can also be done with SPB Diary... or is it PocketPlus (I purchased both so I'm not sure which app adds this). You could also check out SPB Mobile Shell which is also pretty cool.

I found the program once, but can't see to locate it now. I have a CAB that installs the Speed dial app as found in Treos to any wm5 phone.

thanks for the help. i just tried mixing cLaunch with vjays phone tools. it seems to do the trick, but im just having trouble making custom icons, they dont come out too well. any tips on making icons for claunch?

That's why I like the SPB programs... If you have a picture contact saved for that person it will by default use their picture for the speed dial button. Then you simply click on your friend's face to make the call.
