[REQ] Port the new HTC Caller ID from the Wildfire [BUZZ] ?? - Hero, G2 Touch Android Development

Hi,
The HTC Wildfire [BUZZ] has a new HTC Caller ID feature which shows facebook status and birthday on the contact picture when they call, this is shown in the youtube link @ 2:22 [youtube. com/watch?v=huppHZ7ZeQ8]
I was wondering if it was possible to port this to my Hero?
I have downloaded the RUU_Buzz_H3G_UK_1.16.771.2_Radio_13.45.55.24_3.35.15.31_release_131501_signed.exe from shipped-roms. com/shipped/Buzz/ and extracted the rom.zip. I used unyaffs to extract the system.img and had a look in the data folder but i cannot for the life of me figure out where or how this new feature is???
Has anyone got any ideas on this??
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

Wowww, nice caller, need it too. ^^

Not sure about how to port myself, but I know people who can do it.
I would take a stab at it being in HtcDialer.apk or Phone.apk or Dialer.apk (i think it will be the first one, as i think phone/dialer are vanilla filenames, but I can't remember for sure)
If you post them, maybe someone can look at changing the package tags, though i guess it will need more than just those changed.
Probably will need other code added, unless it would work on a friendstream 2.1 WWE ROM??? IIRC some stuff was added to Villain 12 which could help with facebook etc. but I have no idea if that helps or not. Might be a big hassle, but if someone who can port tries, we can see...

+1. It's a very clever one

I have tried pushing the apks to my VillainROM 12 with no success, once i replace the stock apks and press the phone button on rosie to open the dialler all i get is a popup message saying phone and no dialler.
I have attached the apks which may have this New HTC Caller ID feature in them if someone wishes to take a look??

i dont think it is gonna be so easy, wildfire has a tattoo resolution, so everything looks bad on our screens... i just ported the wildfire rom to hero, so it has a different keyboard with language selection button, but it is very very small hehe, otherways i think it looks like legend rom... have not noticed if there is a different facebook picture in calling, because i dont use the rom, wanted to just check it out.

Opal phone canvas slide to answer question

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.
Cheers,
Jason

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?

Take a look @ dial with style, dowload one of the .cabs look @ files used, then take the files from Rose needed and .cab up for other ROM.

EDIT!!! updated link.
borgart htc call plugin
hey dermann..it works but the bottom is cut off a bit..maybe because of the 96dpi not sure. maybe someone who doesnt have it can try
glad it worked for ya. i don't know about the 96 dpi, i don't use that it makes everything to small for my eyes. ya someone should let everyone else know, if there having the same problem or not.
hey man its working great , thanx
much thanks
downloaded it...and works great! Thanks alot!

Once again my man comes through with flying colours!!
Will see how it behaves on my BJ II i-617, as you mentioned Dermann in your email, you never had any issues with it mis-behaving for you on Ejoya's Bogart 6.1 Roms, and your beloved BJ I- i-607...lol
As I am utilizing the black_bar scheme, (with grey colour theme), this should look great!
Oh well, I won a 'moral victory' in finally locating the file for D/L...lol
Unfortunately, it did not work on my device...no biggie as applied a 'alpha-dial cheat sheet'. cab which overrides the semi-ugly AT&T branded graphic on the top....
So I can either utilize the 'cheat sheet' or turn 'vanity dialing' option on...they both serve their purpose, and I have a slightly more 'reserved gui' here...lol

Manila 2.5 leo Naming ALGORITHM CRACKED[VIDEO TUTE][SKINNERS,THEMERS SEE THIS ]

As everyone knows no modification made for manila 2.1 works on 2.5
No graphics and no clocks
The hitch was that we didnt know how to name the files.Here is how-!
READ the post and see the video
​
I can proudly announce that i realised the naming algorithm is like this after doing a little research
IF ANYONE HAS ALREADY DONE THIS BEFORE..I DIDNT FIND IT FOR SURE
it is as simple as this
Manila naming algorithm/
Anything in home.mode9 file shuld be started with a .\home\whatever it was in m9editor
example
.\Assets\Images\Home\VGA\TabSinglesandNotificationIcons.qtc
to
.\home\Assets\Images\Home\VGA\TabSinglesandNotificationIcons.qtc
anyhting in internet shuld have
.\internet
anything in a mode9 file shuld have the name before it.
so on so forth
VIDEO TUTORIAL TO FOLLOWON HOW TO FIND THE NAMES EXACTLY AND FEEL GOOD ABOUT THINGS..
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_WxMIVmsN8
simple.efficient..spent a life time understanding
skinners,modifiers..its your ball game now
hey mate,
could u explain a bit more?...i mean, when i included new pictures in my mod, it was no problem to get it done.
i think this find is just for "cosmetic" purposes isnt it?..or is it needed for other things than qtc's?
hmm..i do think we should write a bigger tut on how things are going on there..now its like only a few pieces which make it pretty difficult to even start..i dunno how it is in the diamond or touch hd forums though?

this is for manila 2.5 LEO..the new manila.the manila u were using is manila 2.1
the file names are different in LEO and couldnt be found till today.
this gives the file names.
so... does that mean that you will be able to do some kind of "panosidetoside for 2.5"? ;-)

Footprint

Hi,
I would like to send my taken footprints to friends to share moments. Sadly I figured that I can only export the google earth file type kmz!
Does anyone know how to send it like a postcard? With all the information attached to it.
I am using standard froyo 2.2 on my HTC Desire.
Thanks for helping.
Greetz
