Yes, I've finally gotten around to looking into this whole cab making malarkey and while this is an existing one customised to fit my needs, it's a good learning curve
It's the palm threaded SMS app and it just plain rocks - really
So anyway, I've tested this on WM6 (Black 4) and it really works. Everything is already set up in this for using with T-Mobile and MMS works too! It integrates nicely with the HTC homescreen and includes a custom alert tone (hope you like it! )
Just to make sure the install goes OK, please use the task manager to stop the messaging \ poutlook \ tmail processes before you run the cab as I believe this could cause problems.
You will lose your existing SMS and MMS messages in the standard messaging app so if you want to keep them, use PIMBackup first
It's a fantastic app and I recommend giving it ago and if you're on T-Mob, I've just made it a little easier for you
Cheers,
Smiffy.

EDIT 1: Fixed MMS settings

Good point! Nice work on the cab Lord but some reassurance would be fantastic
Service provider?
Have installed it and its quality. I can't send mms though. In the settings its set to cingular. I've got the tmob settings bar the centre number any ideas?
screen shot
http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2006/10/18/treo-750v-threaded-sms-mms-app-hacked-for-all/
looks like that
I'm looking at it now - I did test it on mine first but I think it probably kept the registry settings when I uninstalled it and re-installed it.
As for uninstalling...on my T-Mobile UK MDA Vario II, it uninstalled perfectly and everything reverted to the standard messaging app...BUT, as with anything like this, please don't just take the poster's word for it - use PIMBackup and and back it all up first!! It will most likely work OK, but...sh*t happens ;-)
Smiffy.
Thanks man. Your word is always good enough
OK, there were 2 places in the registry where the MMS settings were stored and I only changed 1 but it's sorted now (tested 3 times ;-)
And no, my word isn't good enough ;-) Back it up!! :-D
Cheers,
Smiffy.
Fixed and fantastic
Think this will quite possibly be the first cab i'll install after future flashes. Intelligent fuctionality.
Cheers Lordsmiff nice work
Forgot to say that when i uninstalled first version my old sms and mms were still there. When i reinstalled the new ones reappeared. Like lordsmiff says back up just in case but it didnt completely remove messages only temporarily when using the app.
You're right, it doesn't remove the old messages, it just uses a different message store but, at the risk of repeating myself ;-) back it up anyway
Which reminds me - if you want to reflash your device and then get all your threaded SMS messages back, you need to backup a file in the Windows folder called "PalmMsgV001" and also a folder in Windows called "MMS"
The file has all the text messages and stuff in and the folder has all the images etc from MMS messages in (I found that out the hard way )
Copy those two to your storage card and then back after a reflash to have everything back in threads
Cheers,
Smiffy.
Moved to rapidshare at mod's request
Anyone have any ideas where better to put it as I know some people (myself included) can't get them during working hours...damn those proxys
Cheers,
Smiffy.
Is it possible to install this threaded sms cab then alter the network settings by installing one of the available operator cabs or does the setting need to be entered manually?
Thanks.
i havent looked at lordsmiff's version... but if its anything like the ones i posted there is a possible issue of mms not working if you enter the settings manually... but his could be different...
There's not much chance of it being too different - it's based on your cab
If you want me to mod it for your provider, I can do that for you
Just PM me the connection details and I'll see what I can do
Cheers,
Smiffy.
i had another thought if you wanted to run with the idea.. i go back to work today so my time is going to be limited again.
The original version where based on the sprint connections, when i extracted all the files from the cingular treo rom and dumped the registry i compared them, i noticed all the reg settings were pretty much the same except for 2 lines and of course all the provider settings. But im thinking that if we left out the hard coded provider settings and allow the user to enter them manually that this may stop the "sometimes" apparent connection issues with MMS. So basically have a generic threaded cab with no provider settings hard coded at all... and if someone wanted to feel ambitious enough they could make cabs with just the hard coded reg settings for different providers (not the whole app)..
Hi!
Sounds great! Can it also be used for a other provider ? If yes; how do I know my settings ?
Does it show a alerts and integrates it good in the HTC Home Screen ?

I really love this app and would like to go back to it. MMS has always worked for me when using shogunmarks version but I think its limited to 300k.
Since your offering lord would you make one for AT&T?
I linked the settings I would have just posted them here but didn't want to miss something so I linked the main page for you.

One thing everyone should know when using this app is if you use any kind of app that closes programs like HTC Task Manager for example you need to add the Palm Threaded app to the exclusive list so it does NOT close when pressing x.
What happens a lot of times is most people write their txt msg and just click the x but with the threaded you have to wait until the msg is actually sent.
So the app should be running most of the time..
Hi,
What about the new sms notify; does it show an alerts and integrates it good in the HTC Home Screen ?

Here's my compilation of the Kaiser 3G dialpad. I've taken a few of the 3G dialpads around and made one that appears to work well.
I've also attached a non-3G dialpad and a 3G Touch Comm Manager - both working well also.
Please post your feedback / results.
Here's the non-color 6 button Comm Manager as well: Download Link
Post 2 has the color version.
Here's another comm manager - this one uses the color icons from Schap's latest and very nice 4.31 ROM - please pass on kudo's to him for a nice update
One note is to say that the 3G dialpad doesn't include VTKey.exe. If the dialpad cab doesn't fully work for you, try adding this to Windows and resetting your device. I can add it in if needed.
Attched is a Task manager cab that adds the reg edit / suspend / reset function.
A link to an MMS cab if you find you need it after flashing a non-MMS ROM. ArcSoft MMS 4.2.8.1
It works like Charm to my Hermes and looks really beautiful.
Many thanks for your untired efforts...!!!!
Very grateful

for me, all I get are black boxes and after a couple seconds a message that I need to switch to voice or sms. Gotta love AT&T...
In the past on other dialers, this was identical and they were reported working - so I would suspect that all is good here.
Just posted a 6 Button Comm Manager version as well.
Matt,
Re the 3G dialer, I have heard that the 3 icons that run up the right hand side should in fact sit above the numbers 1,2 and 3 so that the viewing window is larger and more rectangular. My understanding is that the way they sit in your thumbnail is a bug that needs fixing.
Is this correct and if yes, how can this be rectified? I use this dialer, configured in this way in one of Kin0kin's roms and I absolutely hate the way it is configured. Worse still is that very few other dialers will work with K's roms; therefore there is very little opportunity to go for something else, e.g Schaps video dialer, which I think is a great looking dialer.
Would appreciate you throwing some light on the visual configuration question.
Thanks

i installed the touch 3g dialer on my 8525 but the numbers are not showing up properly. i have schaps 4.30 installed, do these two files not work together?
What will happen if I use that dialpad and my provider doesnt support video calls? That button just wont work?

You'll get a message that 3G isn't available if you press the video button, otherwise it works like a regular dialer.
Dude you did really a good job
Tried it on my German ROM tonight and its working!!
Only the button below the video is not perfect here.
It shows the german word for "call now".
Maybe its because of the german mui files.
I always tought this button is for the last dailed numbers..
Is it right that this one is now the call button?
See screenshots..
Will test the rest tomorrow need some hours sleep atm
Thank you. It's awesome
here is another great Dialer!
Thank you. Finally got one 3G Kaiser dialpad working on my Trinity. No problem with making 3G video call as well. So far so good.

No it will not work, upgrade to Schaps 4.31.
New rev of the comm manager posted in post 2.
Not ignoring your guy's issues. Hopefully I'll have a chance soon to figure out the issue and improve the install with the dialer on his roms.
Yes. I noticed that the button below the video call button is a "call" button as well. Would be nice if it is mapped to "call history" (We already have a permanent hardware "call" button). Thanks!

I updated my ROM for the first time last night after reading the forums for few days. I like the speed, functionality and look of the Kavana WM6.1 V23 however I am unable to edit the My5 or MyFaves applet. When I try to edit the number or name it just goes to a screen with an 'exit' soft key choice.
Any ideas, pointers or links.
Don't Worry About That
Yeah, I feel you. It doesn't display what you are typing for some reason. I couldn't get it to display what I was typing either. Just go ahead and go to that applet and choose edit contact number then type in the number you want it to call. Press ok and it will save the number, hell it might even take 10 seconds or so, but it will do it. Trust me, just give it a try.

Worked Great But?
OK. That works alright but I still have garbled images on my call status screen and the font is black and barely readable. Anymore nuggets of wisdom out there?

Try CHome Configurator instead, it will allows to do more than editing MyFaves.

I'm loving NFSFAN's new Bell ROM, but i'm not crazy about the slide to answer on the phone canvas.
I'm looking for a way to replace the slide to answer / ignore with buttons instead of a slider while keeping everything else the same.
I've researched different skins for this dialer (there are some cool looking ones out there!!) but none of these change the slider.
Any help would be appreciated.
This one works for me; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=429179. There is also a black version somewhere Google 'Black Minimal Dialer'
I've now been using NFSFAN's ROM for a few days now.
Must say i've gotten quite used to the dialer. I like all of the other features. Especially the "in call curtain". While i'm still not in love with slide to answer I understand the concept of why it was created. If I want to press a button that's what the hardware key is for!!
I wasn't really looking for a new dialer, but i've learnt the slide is an integral part of the package.
Thanks for the response anyways. You were the only one to do so. (everyone else was probably busy shaking their heads!!!)
now mine might sound like a really stupid question, but can I install the opal's slide to answer dialer on my sprint htc vogue ? are all the ## codes working for you on your phone ?
Yes, everything works (911 etc)
In NFSFAN's words, the data connection is not active during a call, it just breaks the data errors.
The dialer is included in his ROM, i'm not really sure if the same one is found anywhere in CAB format. A quick google search for "opal slide to answer CDMA" should yield some results for you.

thanks jmitr for your patient answer and the links to the solutions.. really really appreciate your patience and yes I just installed it and working fine now.. love the new dialer...
i spoke too sooon... i installed the complete cab by mbarvian and then tried juggaloo's cab but it was for VGA graphics, i tried mbarvian and conflippers cab but that messed up everything...
just mbarvians cab - didn't display the incall screen properly.... it was all greyed out...
now i can't find a single good cab which displays everything like it should... i don't want to do any more trial and error and find out... please help me on this ...
i dont mind not having the canvas - atleast i get a bigger picture on caller screen and thats all i want right now...
I know s2u2 has a large picture to answer the phone with.
I don't use it anymore, I found it drained my battery too fast. With NFSFAN's rom and the opal dialer it isn't really needed anyways.
Sorry none of the links led to anything fruitful, my only experience with this dialer is in the custom ROM. Must say it has grown on me though!!

I've been using this on my Sprint Touch for months now with out any issues. Here's a link for a post I have up at PPCGeeks for you to check out . Please let me know if you have any problems. If you don't want the lock feature, don't install Albert's cab...

I had trouble getting the dialer to work initially also. It seemed to be tied to the rom build that something changed after the 20XXX rom build was released. If I used anything earlier it wouldn't work. If your on a stock rom that may be part of the issue. Not sure, but just my experience in fixing the issue.
It is tied to a shell component.

Hey thanks for the reply NFSFAN, the slide to answer was the only part of your ROM that I didn't really like......at first. I couldn't imagine going back to the old dialer now.
It is good to learn what's possible and what's not though, thanks again for the answer.

Codes don't work for me on the verizon beta rom. Is it just me or do you have to use the folder rather than the dialer?
Ok i tried ricky rose rom, dang thing keeps randomly shutting off and i have to use a power cord to restart the phone so here is my question.
anyone know of a simple rom that allows for texting, mms, sms, good camera options, and chome settings? would like it to also do bluetooth well. other then that i want a very simple vanilla rom.
thanks cause i dont have time to try all of them so any points in the right direction would help alot.
There really isn't that many to try the best bet is to set a day and try them all find the ROM that suites your needs.
Regards resets that will be your battery "based on that the only other users in thread with same problem was battery"
If i was to recommend a ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5316523&postcount=2
Thanks ill try that one i tried one of rick remakes of a 6.1 but didnt like some of the homescreen bars. have any idea how to edit them? i would like to remove from say the message bar the email stuff and/or remake a bar to show only messages, mms, missed calls and voice mail with the counters when its minimized if i could figure that out i would have a minimal screen and would suit me perfectly.
yah i was thinking it might be battery to gona find out by buying a new bigger battery off ebay
If looking for a battery find the simplo 1550 they aren't cheap but will provide days of joy and last far longer than any other generic battery.
I'm very minimal myslef but never found an issue with messaging as all on one bar in Kavana Ricky Remade then i only have programs/my favs and settings panel keeps RAM free, but then i use SmartToolKit and folders to make it easy "mind you it's been more pimped so the gf doesn't ask silly q's of how to work it"
lol ill keep a eye out on that battery is it a big battery or just a larger amp one? i did have troubles with smarttool once so dont like it all i need is celetask and chome just wish chome would allow me to edit some of the bars in my case id love the clock on main screen as main bar with messages displayed in it for normal txt messages where i click the clock and it takes me to inbox ... would be nice to also have the missed calls counter there to...
btw any idea of other java options can be setup? i would prefer java thats on my old behold instead of the one here, it seems the one here has a input error with a program i use for my check book, worked flawless on my behold but now with this java it adds a 0 for some dam reason...

regarding the panels , check out the chome configurator thread on the sticky, theres also threads about custom panels and stuff. Search.
but like Stylez mentioned, Rickwyatt's V24 vanilla with a pagepool mod was my fave for a long time, and I also recommend oOkBa's 6.5 rom , to me it was a very good rom, I used it for the last 6 months that I had my dash.
do you know of any place that sells that battery i did a quick search but came up with nothing so far...
