Change Dialer Soft Button?

Synned · #1 (**permalink**) 05-06-2008, 09:53 PM

Whats up guys
My green talk button stopped working a few weeks ago and ever since then I needed to use the iPhone dialer instead of the touch dialer so I can have a software call button. Is there anyway to change the softkey of the dialer to Call instead of Contacts? Or what other dialers have a call button besides the ugly stock one?

Thanks
Joe

There is this one. One of the best looking dialers Ive used.
I totally forget where I got it from or Id link it. Instead Im just gonna attach the cab file here with some screenshots.
Supposedly 911 works on this dialer but Ive never tried it. Still has that issue with not being able to redial the last number without going to history.

it came from xda...i installed this one on my cousins phone and he says that he likes it as well ...especially since he can dial with one hand and not worry about pressing the wrong button..here is the link with a few more like that one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=380466

And there it is. There is other colors also if I remember right.

Thanks for the link.

I've had this same issue with my talk button and was thinking of starting a thread today.

I had hoped that after flashing to the current stock rom it would have fixed itself, but no luck. I have thought about installing one of the button managers, but I was hoping there might be an actual 'fix' to the problem.

PocketCM v0.21 can dial a number without the Green hard send button. Check out the Geeks thread HERE.
Developers site HERE.
Just run PocketCm - Tap phone - Dial the number - and youll see two options will pop up. Call or add. Just click call.
Or launch the app and hold your finger on the contact you wish to call.
I still use v0.11.

Has anyone tried pressing a little harder than usual, my last mogul had the same issue although it didn't not work totally, it would work only if I pressed hard on the button. Has anyone taken theirs apart? What is under the button maybe something is just out of alignment.

I just pushed my little green button as hard as could... okay, not as hard as I could, but certainly harder than you should need to to make it work. No luck. I sure won't take it apart. Maybe I should stop by my friendly neighbohood sprint store and ask for a new one.
