as a side note the color does affect the Dynamic text from the dialer..ie. the Last Call.

Also I verified that if you wanted to you can create the registry keys for the Progress and it will obey the TextColor also, but you must create the "Text" key, and the TextColor Value

Code:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin\PROGRESS\PORTRAIT\Text]

"TextColor"=dword:00ffffff

 

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin\PROGRESS\LANDSCAPE\Text]

"TextColor"=dword:00ffffff

Thanks for that info :) Neither of those are in the RGU so that was a great find.

I was just playing around with the basic digit set.
Theme is here if you want it. Will work with blueFrog and new Touch.

I loaded up the skin I made, and checked the dialer, it is set to vogue.......anyway, I don't like the vogue issues, so I am going to build a new ROM w/ the dialer, then create a new skin to test.

thx for the help

ok, I built a new ROM w/ the latest touch, then started from scratch w/ the dialer skin. It looks the way it should, but I'm having some weirds issues when making calls, maybe it's the dialer & has nothing to do w/ the skin, but here's what's happening:

1. When making a call, I'm getting the roaming icon.
2. If I dial *2 (Sprint CS) I get a msg that says "Verizon Wireless over the air programming....". It appears I'm roaming on Verizon, nad going to their CS.
3. When I end the call the radio has to search for a signal, goes back to PCS.

Any ideas? I tried setting the roaming option to Sprint only, but it made no difference.

Not sure, but that doesn't even sound like a dialer issue. The only time I've seen something like that happen is when someone clones an ESN and some of the settings are still there from the old carrier.

Maybe someone else has had that problem before though.

Looking at that picture, there must be a bug in skin loading. You're actually in blueFrog mode if you don't have all color options. I'll have to fix that for next release.

Edit: I can duplicate that skin loading bug here. It does put you in the correct mode that the skin was saved in, but it doesn't check the right option on the list. Easy fix.

--v1.0.8
-The Options->Dialer choice is properly checked depending on the mode you are in.

Dialer not Working.

Hello,

I created a skin with the application and copied the files to the windows dir. soft reset and it's still not working. I have ppc 6700 and wm6. any suggestions?

Which dialer are you using and what did you use to copy the files?

Possible problems, you're not using a supported dialer, or you used ActiveSync to copy the files to \Windows (in which case it won't overwrite ROM files).

I guess I'll need to take a close look in the kitchen, as I am getting the same result on both my 6700's. Maybe the dialer is conflicting w/ something else......I was using the ibliss dialer up till yesterday.

I tried a hard reset, but still have the issue, maybe I'll try the bluefrog dialer.
