Hey guys, does anyone know of a way to have the Messaging app on WM5/6 look through contacts and assign the appropriate contact name based on the number from which the message was received? I know it does this automatically when a new message comes in, but how about for old messages, where the contact was not yet entered into the address book?
That is to say, at present, I have messages in my inbox that have no name associated to them, only a number. Since being received, however, I have added the number to a contact, and now wish the old message to recognise the message as one from that particular contact.
I'm pulling my hair out over this one, so any help is appreciated.
Rich.

Anyone?
Plus, I'm somewhat unsure of where else to look/ask for help...

No-one?
Hello,
I am having an issue with my Captivate and SMS messages, I have a contact that I try to send a text message to from the contact list, originally the contact did not have an area code. I added the change and resynced my google contact list but now every time I try to send a message via the contact list, it shows up as just as the contact name and the number does not have the area code. Inadvertantly gets an error when sending a text message to it! What can I do to fix this issue?
Thank you,
Charlie

I suggest that you log on to Google on you PC and delete and then recreate the contact with the area code...Make sure you resync after you delete the contact and the resync after you recreate it.

Thanks for the reply did that 3x and just did it a 4th time now, still the same, oh well, I will live with it. What is funny if I go into messaging and do a new message then select the contact, works perfectly, but if I go off the contacts, it keeps reverting back.
Thank you,

I've done some searching and I haven't seen anyone with a similar problem as I have.
I had a HTC Magic a couple of months back and some of the contacts were listed as favorites. I lost that phone and just bought Evo 3D and all my favorites were transferred to this phone, which is good. However, I wan't to remove some people from favorite and when I look at the contact it says "Groups: Favorites" and when I hit edit contacts and want to remove him from Favorites it says "Groups: None". If I add that same contact to let say, friends group it says "Friends" in the edit section but "Favorites, Friends" in the contact information. I've also checked Gmail contacts and he's not in the "starred in Android" section.
Does anyone know how I can remove this person as favorite?
Thank you.
bump. Please help
Nvm, I got it solved. Resolved.
Is there an easy way to add a new contact from a txt? What I mean is, say you get a txt from someone not in your contacts. Instead of their name, their number shows up. Is there a way to make a new contact with them without have to write the number down and adding it manually?

don't think so...you have to copy it and then paste into the dialer and then save to contacts
When your in the txt message, press menu key and then you'll get the option add to person, and then make a new contact with that number. That is how it works with mine so it should work on yours to.
short press on the message from the number that isn't in your contacts, then select add contact.
Hi there,
I've several contacts, who changed their phone number and now I've two chat historys.
So I want to merge both historys to the new number.
I know from the past there is a possibility to edit the database with SQLiteBrowser, but I can't remember the commands.
Or maybe there is a simple tool, which can automatically change all related stuff from old number to new number?
Hope that maybe someone can help me
Thanks and best regards,
