Using VJDialer I was able to make it work. Now you can just press "Select" to call any of your contacts. I put together a new cab file that installs VJDialer, Copy "Shortcut" files for your contacts and create the required registry entries.

You can download it from here: http://freddyreyes.com/index.php?option=co...info&id=164

After installation you need to go to HKLM\Security\cHome\CLinks3\Page(1-5) and edit each value with your own Pictures.

E.g. Under HKLM\Security\cHome\CLinks3\Page1, change "PICTURES" value from "\windows\CHome_Contact.png" to "\Storage Card\My Documents\Contacts\Lisa.jpg". Repeat the same procedure for Page2 and so on.

Go to \Storage Card\Program Files\Shadow Photo Dialer on your phone.
You will see 10 files with the name Dial_Contact(1-5)m.lnk (Mobile) and Dial_Contact(1-5)h.lnk (Home)

Using Total Comander you will need to modify the contact information for each of your contacts.

E.g. Dial_Contact1m.lnk should have something like 34#"\Storage Card\Program Files\Shadow Photo Dialer\VJDialer.exe" +555-555-1234. Just replace +555-555-1234 with the contact mobile number

Soft reset your phone and the new menu should appear.

This is a limitation of the outlook contacts database. If you have outlook installed on your PC, add a picture to a contact and you'll see that it's automatically shrunk to something like 72x92 and recompressed at a low bit-rate. The contacts database on windows mobile is the same for compatibility so the only way to change this is to find a way to alter the way the database stores contact photos.

The limitations of this method is the confirmation screen and that certain characters such as * and maybe # are not allowed, which prevents you from using some gsm commands. You just need to find an alternative dialer program that takes a phone number as a parameter. I did a quick search and found VJDialer (http://www.vijay555.com/?Releases:VJPhoneTools), but I don't know if it works on smartphones. Give it a try.

Just created a cab file with the basic "Template". You need to update the registry with your own values: phone numbers, pictures, etc.

You can download it from here: http://freddyreyes.com/index.php?option=co...info&id=164

Each contact will have a default photo and the numbers +555-555-1234 for cellphone and home.

After installation you need to go to HKLM\Security\cHome\CLinks3\Page"n" (1-5) and edit each value with your own data: links to your own pictures, numbers, etc.
