Blue Angel upgrade? - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General

Guys,
My fav phone these last few years was the Blue Angel, I just loved the form factor with the sliding down keyboard rather than across, do we know if there's an upgraded version due soon or are we now doomed to slide across keyboards and orientation changes each time I want to write a text message?

Text Input Options

Morning all,
I am fresh from installing WM6 onto my MDAIII Compact, UK T-Mobile
Really liking it, but as usual when flashing - it gets rid of my intellipad app. Now, before i put it back on, was wondering if there is a better input app around? I like intellipad because i have sausage roll fingers and the big keys help, as does the T9 input... but i also like the way the keyboard predicts words, and next words...
Any thoughts? Also - any other 'Must have' apps around?

htc wm6 alpha dialing

I posted this awhile back in the russian rom thread but i didn't get much of a response.
with tmobile wm6 you can type in letters and the dialer will convert it to numbers for you. htc unfortunately did not include this in their version. if anyone still running tmo wm6 can figure out the registry entrys for this and post them here that would be great!
also does anyone know how to change the text in the call screen to black? I want to get rid of that god awful green screen but i need darker text to be able to read it.
Bummer about the alpha-dialing, didn't realize that wasn't there until reading your post. That was a slick feature.
The green screens are awful (what were they thinking?), would be great if someone came up with a cab file that got rid of them all. The call status screen is butt-ugly, but the CommManager screen is worse.
Ideally, HTC should've created an application/configuration program that let the user choose their own color of branding... or... just made it blue.

Text message layout

Hi, i was just wondering if there was a way of changing the look of text messages. Its all fancy when it touchflo showing the last message received, but as soon as i reply or go to all messages, its a horrible white screen and very plan. Anyone got any solutions to this? Thanks.
Hi
Consider upgrading to one of the latest Rhodium/Topaz ROMs where HTC have included this area of Windows Mobile within their customisation and done a reasonable job of hiding our very own Ugly Betty (WinMob 6.1)
Regards
H
the other way around is using a proggie like sktools to change system colors of winmo parts (a bit like righclicking on our win PC desktop/properties/appearance)
just changes colors anyway
Programs that change the system colours seems like a great idea until you start doing it, i too hate the boring messaging colours, i wanted white letters on a black background, but although u can easily change them u soon realise its not workable, changing "window background colour" to black also changes signal bars to black, & it also changes internet pages such as facebook to black, but when u then change text colour to white for messaging it leaves web pages with black type on black ! & notification text would also be black on black, you end up trying different combinations for ages then reverting to standard.
yup thats the crap of it
like in pc windows anyway

Touchflo keyboard missing

Hello all,
Just received my Verizon TP2 and am in love. I've been playing with it for hours on end, installing many of the essential apps listed in the application thread.
I've come across a problem though. After installing an application (I can't for the life of me remember which one) the Touchflo keyboard which appears when you tap the keyboard icon at the center bottom part of the screen seems to have disappeared. It has been replaced with the standard WinMo keyboard which is much too small to use with your fingers. Any ideas how to revert to the Touchflo version?
Thanks all!
Disregard. Being a geek, I should have known the first step is to always reset the device first! First smartphone, and it's hard to start thinking of these things as computers!

Tilt 2 Dialer Skin with bigger # buttons

I have a new Tilt 2 (my last was the Tilt) from AT&T and I have been searching for a new dialer pad with bigger buttons. Unlike the original Tilt, the buttons aren't terrible but I would like them to be a bit bigger. Once upon a time, I installed the PaulyA dialer for the Tilt and I was wondering if there was a similarly large version for the Tilt2. I have tried several that had the wrong resolution (apparently not WVGA) but I can't find one that seems to work for the Tilt2.
I found a iPod look-alike that was kinda cool (lost the link) but it wouldn't replace the stock dialer, it was a separate app that had google voice (not what I need).
I found the Insoft Phone 5 product, but it seems to have issues with Caller ID. I was also looking for something that was either free OR was available in US $.
I also found the Dark Rhodium Touch Pro 2 Dialer but the buttons are just black and do not seem to be any bigger.
I understand that the smart dialer takes up a lot of real-estate but I would gladly sacrifice a couple of entries for bigger buttons.
BTW, I did run a search with some keywords but maybe I have missed the thread. If I have, please accept my apologies in advance.
Have you looked at Iconsoft PhonEx 2.2? One of the best dialers out IMO full screen contact pic ID and full screen dialer.
Thanks! That is exactly what I wanted. Lots more features than I had expected.
