Auto completion of recipients in Messaging

I am using the MostBeautiful ROM.
One function of previous ROMS I miss is the following:
In the past I just had to enter the first letters of a contact in the recipients-field of new mails, mms or text messages. A pull-down menu appeared and I just had to select the desired contact. The function pasted the mail adress/mobile number by itself.
Now, I have to search in the contacts by clicking on "To" or to enter the adress/number by myself.
Does anyone know, how to add the missed function?

have you figured this out?
my new XDA ZINC has the same problem... i cant seem to auto-complete the email addresses and sms numbers. this used to be a feature i had on an older xda phone.
please let me know if you found a solution.
thanks.

That feature works in the newer WM6 roms. I know it works in mine (Crossbow Reloaded) and I seem to recall it worked in Xplore 1.1, Faria Vanilla, and NTS. I do remember it didn't work when I had MBE.

It works on my BE rom... only weird thing is that it shows both the Phone's Contacts and the SIM contacts even though I have the SIM contacts hidden... so I have doubles every time.

any thoughts on how i can get it working on my xda zinc?
thanks.

Me too!
i have the sme problem, running Crossbow Reloaded 1.7.
I am missing the auto-complete in the "To:" field of the SMS application.
Does anyone know how to enable it?

I found that i had this problem after changing a certain registry key.
Try making the following reg entries
Code:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER/keyboard layout/Preload/default="e0010409"
HKEY_CURRENT_USER/keyboard layout/Preload/1/default="e0010409"
Then wait for 60seconds to make sure the reg is saved, then soft reset your WIzard. Worked for me.

They are already there ... !
Not working here too.

6Tab HTC Homescreen plugin: unable to assign specific phone# in favorite people Tab

I downloaded and installed the '6 tab' version of the HTC Homescreen onto my At&t Tilt and it looks slick, especially using an HTC black background theme.
The only problem I'm experiencing is when I select the 'fav people' tab (second tab from the left) which brings up 9 (with pic icons) people called by simply tapping their pic, I'm not able to assign 'WHICH specific telephone number (home, business, mobile) is called.
It appears from my brief trial/error testing, that if more more than one telephone number is included in a person's contact, only the person's mobile number gets assigned. How can I re-assign it to a person's other tel number (home, business) instead?
Thanks in advance for all help offered.

off the top of my head just in case your also using something like voice command would be to add a new contact with a false name (so that you don't have to worry about voice command using that one by mistake)but with the pic and phone number you want to use.Not a great solution but a very easy to use work around.

Sneakyp86,
Since you suggested a workaround, can I assume that you too aren't able to get the 9 favorite people 'Touch Pic calling feature' to call anything other than the number in the contact's 'mobile phone' field?
I'm now wondering if this problem might be only limited to the (6-tabbed) version of HTC home plugin I installed: here
Anybody here with contacts that have multiple telephone numbers able to successfully assign their HTC Home screen's : 'touch pic-calling' to call another number other than only the contact's 'mobile phone number'? If so, please provide a download-able link to the HTC Home screen plugin version your successfully using.
Thanks
Jazz

You could try manually editing the number in registry. Found in HKLM/Software/HTC/Contacts/ They're numbered from 0-8, just look for the right one, change it, see what happens.

Re-installing a newer version of HTC Home (version 2.0814.722 by Shen) fixed the multiple telephone number problem allowing you to choose from: a contact's multiple telephone numbers. HTC Home works perfect and looks terrific now.

Transfer contact from SIM to windows mobile phone with categories?

Hi
I couldnt find anywhere, i thought this question was ovious.
in my sim card, i have contact name mark with /m or /h or /w for mobile, home, and work. for exemple ''Jonh/m'' means jonh cell phone.
and i have some thing like this
jonh /h 514-248-4535
jonh /w 514-234-7854
Jonh /m 514-234-5665
when i tranfer it to my phone, it have exactly the same structure.
There is some way to merge it togerter under the same name with different categories for mobile and work and home number and so on?
one other thing is how to hide SIM contact, beacause once you have transfered your contact list to your phone, in contact list of the phone, it showed duplicated contact.
sorry for my english.
thank.

Any one?
Do i in the wrong forum or section?

NO, SIM Contacts are basic information, it would serve you better to just add your contacts using outlook if you have it, back up your outlook contacts any time you make any changes.
If you don't have outlook, PIM Backup works well for managing your contacts from the phone, just dont restore a backup from PIM and then try syncing with outlook that is already populated, you will get double listings, use one as your primary and the other as an emergency if you use both.
You can hide SIM contacts useing a tweak tool, kaiser tweak unfortunatley has to be adjusted after each reset for that setting. There is another tool similar that does work even after resets, just becareful using it on a kaiser, I ran into some sereous crashes adjusting things that varied in the kaiser with it, Unfortunately I cant remember who made it (Dutty tends to load it up in his roms)
Another option is to use a contact replacement program, I use "Finger Fiendly Friends", it filters out sims, I think Pocket CM filters them also. iContact at this time does not.
I hope this has answered your questions.

Help needed!!Problem in Contacts

Hello,
As i flash my phone a few times, i have my contacts on my sim. Normally I copy the contacts to phone but I'm using MyPhone too, so it downloaded the contacts automatically. Now if i delete my contacts from my SIM, the name isnt displayed when that contact calling(That contact is still in phonebook but not in sim) For example, my mother calls me, Mother--05xxxxxxxxx and if i delete her from SIM its like 05xxxxxxxxx only, just number. Please help me.By the way, in some contacts[1 or 2 not too much] if its not in sim only in phonebook it still shows the name, there isnt problem.I want all of them like this, when i delete from SIM, still show the name from Phone.
Phone:Samsung i900 Omnia
