[Q] SGS Simply Honey Problem - General Questions and Answers

Hello,
I hope I've posted where I should have do.
I've got an international i9000 and I've got a problem with the Simply Honey firmware.
If I want to call a contact called "Cristi" and I type 274 in dialler I won't see anything else than what I've typed.
I want to call "Cristi N", but I can't see the whole name. Since I've got "Cristi N", "Cristi" and "Cristi Nasu" in my phonebook I don't know how can I call one of them using the dialler since the text is black.
Is there any way to make it another color?
This issue applies only there.

noone knows?

Messaging on the Touch Pro 2

Hey, sorry if someone already made a thread on this, I wasn't sure what to search for to find out, but here it is:
On the TP2, and I'm sure everyone with this phone has noticed it, while viewing txts in conversation mode, if you leave the conversation open and recieved X amount of messages from that person, when you close out, it will still say you have X number of unread messages, and you have to open and close your conversation X number of times before it shows as no unread messages.
I'm hoping HTC makes a fix for this soon because it is really annoying, but I wanted to see if any of you very capable guys here can make a simple cab fix for it.
I've noticed similar problems and I think it's a bug in the TF3D interface unfortunately.
Holy cow, that was my biggest gripe. I just stopped going into the WM messaging and I use the tf3d instead (click on the first msg from the messaging tab) and stay in there. It works right.
I almost always use the TF3d interface and I still have go occasionally go back in and enter the message again to get the indicator to go away, even after I've responded!
Agreed I hate it. I am not using the HTC interface (went with SPB) but if I get messages and chat in the SMS window it will not mark them as read. I HATE IT!
I haven't tried using the TF3d to see if it works better. I always used the default WM home screen cause I like it better. But either way, yeah hoping they will fix it lol It did it on my TP also, but only after I installed the latest update. With it being on that and on this one, I almost wonder if it wasn't a glitch and maybe it is intentional idk
I have also noticed it too. My old touch pro did the same thing. I have noticed on the touch pro two it changes between two different styles of text messaging screens, it really messes me up because the send button ends up in different spots.
when you're on the sms thread and you're talking to person just use your arrow keys to go up towards the one you haven't read. it'll show a closed envelope to the left of the message and as you press up and pass them the envelope opens up. no need to open and close.
Yes from the SMS inbox that's fine, but from the TF3D interface which is easier to get to than the SMS inbox if you're running TF3D then sometimes you need to read it again.
I was hoping they fixed this in 6.5 but NOPE of course not. WHY THE HELL ARE THERE TWO MESSAGING PROGRAMS!?!?!

Exactly my question. I just disabled TF3D and use WM default I like it better. Plus you free up some resources.

You disabled ALL TF3D or just the SMS in TF3d?
I used SBP Mobile Shell as a replacement for a bit, but i had some problems with it too....Are there any other shells out there worth looking at that might correct some messaging issues?
On a somewhat related note, has anyone else noticed that some people you get text messages will be an hour behind? Like you recieve the txt at 5:30pm and it shows as 4:30pm? My TP did this also. I don't know if there is a setting or something...
dont know if yall figured this out but the second post in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=585101&highlight=mark+read has all your answers. I installed the program and works like a charm. i now have the "mark all as read" option FINALLY!!!!!!! that little orange baloon with the little number was driving me absolutley nutts.
So i have a USCellular TouchPro2 fresh out of the box....
Somehow its stuck showing 1 unread message in the SMS inbox...i have tried deleting every text from the system...installing the InboxExtender and using the mark all read option..the rogue (1) still appears....anything else i can try ??
Thanks
UPDATE --
US Cellular says its a know bug that they are working to resolve....no ETA for the patch of course.....

Try the fix unread message count. Copy to phone and run then reboot.
Hey, on this topic, how do I make it so my default sms is the windows version instead of the HTC one that?
Anyone have a cab for that or can help me for the 6.5 update VZ tp2?

+1 I wanna know this too except for the TMOUS version. I kinda hate the TF sms. Also has anyone noticed thatg when you type in a recipients name, it brings up ALL their numbers? My Tilt used to only show me mobile numbers for the recipient (which makes sense since land lines and faxes dont typically receive texts DDUUUHHH!!!) but i have on occasion sent a text to a friends home phone or fax!!
+2 I also would like to know if i can make WM my default SMS.

[Q] Google Talk icon missing from contacts.

Hi,
I hope someone can help me as this has been bugging me for a while now.
Basically when I was on stock 2.1 Eclair when I clicked on the contact photo I had a Google Talk icon there so I was able to start the chat with the person without going to GTalk app itself. Straight after OTA upgrade to 2.2 Froyo the icon disappeared.
Didn't come back even after flashing with the custom rom (LeeDroid)
I have HTC Desire GSM running LeeDroid 2.3c but I think it's not related to the handset itself as I saw few more posts relating the same problem but different phones.
Has anyone got any idea how to bring the icon back?
Please copy and paste the screenshot link below as I can't post external links yet

p.s the screenshot is photoshopped but that's pretty much what it used to look like when it was working.

motoroi dialer problem

hi
i have a motoroi xt720, im having a problem about the dialer program. when ever i dial a number it inserts a "-" sign in between the numbers, because of that sign, i can't do a balance check on my sim because it uses this kind of command *221#
whenever i dial *221# the dialer make it like this *-221#
is there a work around for this problem.? hope anyone out there is willing to give answers to this. . .
Hi,
Wow, that's crazy. Back when I was playing with the WanHu ROM I had problems with the grouping of the numbers, so it looked funny, but it made no difference to the outbound call. (meaning whether the dialer displayed 1-866-289-6686 or 186-62896-686, the call still worked and went to the same place).
One option you could try is changing your Dialer. I'm using the HiDialer dialer (ver 1.80) which I think came from the HTC Sense ROMS. I like it because I can search for contacts by T9 dialing their names (like the MIUI rom), but I also just noticed that it doesn't do any spacing in between numbers whatsoever. So maybe it'll help you?
I used one of the two apks listed here (I believe the second one): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1081817
@thejaycan, thanks for the reply man, and im sorry i forgot to update this thread, i've already found a fix for this problem. I'm using brianlee's Bravo Rom. For me, it is the best rom for those using korean xt720. I hope that other devs will help update bravo rom up to the latest android version. =[)
and by the way, thanks for the link. i thinks it's a good dialer also.

[Q] caller ID matching to contacts - please help

Hello,
New to the forum, hello and thanks to all!
I'm Running a Captivate with Cyanogen Mod 7.1
and I am seeing that the incoming caller ID number has to exactly match the phone number stored in the contact (all digits) for the contact matching to work correctly (for received calls and SMS)
I would like to limit the matching to 8 digits, like many traditional cell phones out there. The problem is that in my country in some situations I need to dial the numbers differently from what the network reports for incoming calls.
With ES File Explorer , I modified the /system/build.prop file , adding the line “ro.phone.min_match=8” but it still does not work.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1160343
The file was modified successfully, the change is still there, but it does not work. Maybe I have to do it differently, with the adb tool but I really don´t know how. Or maybe it will not work with Cyanogen??
Could anybody please give me some guidance on how to do this ?
Thank you very much!
Gonzalo
Ok, after some investigation of the source code:
This does not work with Cyanogen Mod. It has a completely different caller id-to contact code, so that method will not work.
Gonza
Well, does anybody know how to change that behavior?
Since the Nokia S40 days, I'm used to see caller ID matched to the 8 last digits of my contacts. And this has been a major annoyance on CM7 to me, to the point I'm nearly compiling AOSP to extract the original app...
Did anybody discovered how to solve this issue? any progress?
This is the only annoyance I have with CM7.
Thanks,
Marcelo
same for me! any solution?
Unfortunately there is no solution to this.
My brother and I , we looked at the source code, and after a couple of hours of searching we found the routines. Its easy to modify, but then you need to build everything again from scratch.
I dont know how to do that but my brother does, so he tried to do it for me but it took ages to download all the code, and the donwloads were interrrupted etc etc.
End of the story, he could not do it. It can be modified, but somebody hast to do it ...

Voice Search CM7?

Does anyone else have a problem sending a text with this thing? It's not a big deal but i was trying to send a text to someone using it from the home screen and it never completes it. For example if i were to bring it up and say, "Text Jerfy, (i pause here) Hey man i hate you period" It would then bring up
To:
Body: Jerfy (linking my contact info) hey man i hate you.
it never puts the contact in the To box for me, anyone else have this problem or anyway to fix it? am i being a noob lol i have everything flashed properly to use google apps
