Hi, I proudly got my Raphael about a week ago, and I want to thank everyone at this forum as it really helped in my decision to go with it!
After playing around with it for a while and reading through the posts, I've managed to fix many of the issues that have come up. One of the questions I have however, is if there is a way to send pictures via bluetooth, directly from the photo viewer or album. With the current menu, it lets you send by email, SMS/MMS etc... but not by bluetooth (an option I've had in previous phones).
Cheers.

I have to change the story since I discovered after getting a few mails, that the photo contacts application is gone, but it is no longer needed, since all information is now stored in the contacts. It is a lot better than before, because you only need 1 application.
I am using my Qtek2020 for almost 2 years now and one of the features I really liked was Photo Contacts. However, it doesn't work all the time, whatever I am trying to do. When I saw the first screen shots of WM2005 it showed a contacts application with photos. I tought that WM2005 would have solved the problems of 2003 and SE, but unfortunately it isn't true. Even worse, there is no photo contacts application any more in wm2005, unless I don't have the right roms.
I know that you can buy photo contacts from a vendor, but it used to be part of all the previous rom versions, what happened?
Does anyone have an idea about a good extended rom for wm2005?
thanks
You can assign photos and ringtones from the contacts, you must missed that in WM5.0
It's integrated in Contacts application
Check you contacts: the second or third line is called "change image". The same goes for ringtone...
Even better: now the image in contacts is synchronized with Outlook 2003!

Thanks guys,
but can you see a photo with an incoming or outgoing call?
Yes, you can!
otherwise it would be pretty useless to asign the pics
that is unless one had a poor memory and
would benefit from having a picture and name to go together when
trying to renember people
photo contacts
Hi guys,
thx to all, it works just fine and it is a lot better than ever before!
Making contacts picture bigger?
Anyone knows how to increase the size of the pictures or photos that we have assigned to the contact? It is really small...
I don’t try to start unnecessary new threads, but I haven’t found an answer to this question on this forums, so here I go.
Until now I’ve tried the Crossbow Reloaded, Most Beautiful & mUn BaseRom (definitely prefer the BaseRom!) and keep encountering the same problem. I don’t seem to be able to get a notification (sound, vibration, anything) whenever I get a new Live email. Free push-email is nice and I’d like to notice the arrival of new mail. I’ve tried all configurations under settings > personal > Sounds & Notifications.
Anybody aware of a register tweak or a post with some directions??
You're not alone...
I would love to know the answer to this one. I am having the same issue that i don't get notified when a new push mail has arrived. What the point of getting them "real-time" if you don't get notified?????
I found that if the Messaging App is open in the background you dont get alerts for live mail... If you close the Messaging service it gives alerts, mine at least..
Ok with Pandora
I flashed Pandora 01.05 and later 01.10 and the email notifications work fine with these. Maybe you want to give it a go.
I've just upgraded from a Hero to a Desire, I'm loving the Desire but have one very very annoying issue.
Whenever I receive an automated text, for instance from T-Mobile or Ocado the phone is assigning the sender as being someone from my contact list... has anyone else experienced this?
I've seen this issue on my N1. It affects not only automated messages as you said, but also those from other people.
i.e. Person A messages me, message placed in Person B's thread, Reply to message, Sent to Person B, or even Person C!!
The issue seems to be with the messaging app on 2.1, and I know that google is aware that it's faulty. Another thing to watch out for is the random deletion of all messages from your inbox. It doesn't happen to everyone, but if you are having the other bug, you might want to watch out, as they do seem to be related. btw, this is unrelated to the automatic clearing of inbox option in the messages setting.

Sorry I can't provide any useful help, but I just thought I'd let you know you aren't alone. It's affecting N1 and Droid owners too.
Thanks for the response, I suspected it wasn't device specific and you've just comfirmed that, so that's helpful to know!
Cheers
i have the same problem, just from another angel. if i select an contact and then press send sms, 60% of the times, it selects a totally diffrent contact as reciever.
also when i get a sms about a missed call, the sender is a randome contact from ny contactlist.
is there any threads about solving this bug?
The only other thread I can find on this site vaguely related is this one, although it's mostly about the sms random deleting.

There is an issue posted with Google, as I mentioned above
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=5669
I think people are (for the moment anyway) lumping these problems all under the same broad umbrella of faulty messaging.
If either/both of you can upload your bug report onto that thread, it will help google to work out what the problem actually is. Instructions for doing that are on the google thread.
OK so some progress on this, I spotted this thread here:
"http_://androidforums.com/htc-desire/61560-sms-incorrect-contacts-issue.html"
I'm not sure if it's isolated to the Desire, but HTC are aware... it's linked to Facebook sync of contacts.
Hello everyone,
I'll start by saying that I haven't lost my whatsapp chats since I began using it in 2010.
Until last update I had all my chats from 2010 in my "Chats" tab in the app.
Today, I realized that my list is a hell lot shorter than it used to be and that all the chats that ended before July 2015 are gone (I would say probably 150 chats).
If I use the search option and search for an old chat contact's name I find him under "Other contacts" and not under "Chats", BUT if I enter the chat I CAN see all the history with him. This seems pretty weird.
I've looked at the database file and it has the same size as it used to have and considering that I can see the history of the chats if I search manually means they haven't been deleted, just cleared from the Chats tab.
Maybe Whatsapp are trying to speed up loading time for the main activity?
Am I the only one who has this issue?
Is it an issue of the current version only?
I'm a freak for nostalgic things and it scares me a lil' but to lose my chats.
I have an international Exynos galaxy s8 plus model.
Whatsapp version 2.17.323
Thanks in advance and have a great day!
No one?
Hello!
It seems like I've finally found someone with the same problem as me and I'm not an isolated case.
Firstly, I'm sorry if you do not understand something I say, English is not my native language.
So, I noticed this a couple of days ago, I had over a hundred conversations and I have the habit of archive them through the "Archive all chats" option. The last time I used this option, I noticed that it listed only 64 conversations. I'm pretty sure I did not delete any conversation, and as you said, the size of my database also remains the same as before.
Curiously, I can only find the old conversations if I search for the contact's name or part of the conversation, but in the archived list these do not appear.
I also noticed that if I enter through the WhatsApp Web, these conversations do not appear as in the phone, they appear empty.
I was thinking about contacting WhatsApp support, because I'm afraid that if I reinstall I'll lose the conversations.
Hello, glad to know I'm not alone. Someone in another forum had the same issue and just installed an old apk from august.
I'm not sure if they did that intentionally or by mistake, so I tried to contact whatsapp support team. they keep giving me generic answers on how to add contacts to whatsapp and how to backup data to drive lol.. They don't even read it.
Waiting for an app update. If this doesn't solve this I'll go back to an old version myself.
Same thing happens with the Whatsapp Web like you by the way.
I have a bit of a strange question - searched but couldn't find any info.
I have an S21 Ultra on Android 11, however I believe this isn't phone-specific and effects older versions of Android as well.
When you want to share something on Android, you click the share button in whatever app or item you're looking to share. A sharing menu appears, and gives suggestions on both apps to share with, and also contacts to share directly with.
My issue is that my main contacts are NEVER suggested.
As an example, I message 2 people multiple times per day using Signal (much more than any other contacts), and every time I want to share anything with them, I get suggestions for various other contacts on Signal, but never the 2 I actually want. I then have to choose Signal, then chose the specific contact(s) to share.
I've attached a screenshot of what I mean.. It shows the menu that appears directly after hitting share. In this case I've picked a photo, clicked share, and on the top line it's suggested 2 x Signal contacts and 2 x Whatsapp contacts. And none of the 4 suggested are regular contacts.
Is there anyway to enforce certain suggestions for sharing?
TIA
