[Q] How to add click events to Android's default contact application? - General Questions and Answers

Hello,
I've done quite a bit of searching and have seen other applications successfully be able to add a application shortcut while clicking on a contact in the android contact app. I've found similar links for creating shortcuts on the home screen but none addressing how to modify the click event of a native application.
If anyone has come across how to do this please let the group know.
Thanks.

Where can I find shortcut names/link WM6?

Hi, I didn't really know how to word this in the title so I'll explain here.
I'm currently creating themes (For the SEX1) and I need to know the links within WM to access certain applications and parts of the UI, for example:
To access messaging I link "\Windows\tmail.exe"
however, if I want to get directly to SMS messaging or a certain email inbox, how do I adapt the above link?
Other than messaging I currently want to get to the battery interface (shows the charge level and options etc).
Is there somewhere I can find a list of these or a way I can find it out myself from the UI?
Thanks.

Thank you kindly. I did have a brief look, but when you don't know the name of what you're searching for, it's hard to search

Group's contacts calls intercepted in the booking period.
Looks great! I will try it out... seems that it is something like groups in Google Contacts or is there something really different? (except firewall!, I understand that the firewall is not possible in Google Contacts)

Thanks! Will give it a go. Looks to be pretty good already.
Perfectly executed ad placement, BTW
does it group your contacts by your google groups..?
Thanks, dewang!!!!
Edit: Slight spelling error: "Select photo form Gallery", should be "from".
Thanks!
Nice app! Since it's now in the Market, I will add it to next Monday's Last Week's Best Android Apps and Games roundup, like this one http://www.androidpolice.com/2010/1...-and-games-10410-101010-now-with-screenshots/
OK
Thank you for your interest.
I think I hit a bug but I can't reproduce it, so I think it only happens if you install and don't go to the options. Basically, the mass SMS option added all the phone numbers from every contact, instead of just the primary ones. When I went to the options, I saw that the default option is to actually pick the primary one and is already checked. Then I went back and tried again and this time it was fine - only the primary numbers were selected. Any idea why this may be happening? Do you not initialize your options perhaps?

Thank you for your feedback. I have found the problem, because the code and configuration files using the default settings are different. I'm adding new features. Completed immediately after the update.
Just what an android needed!!! Good job man!
I *really* like this contact manager, it has almost all of the features that I've been dreaming of having since I left the iPhone.
I have two requests:
I have contacts in my Google Contacts, and they and the groups they are in are showing up just fine. I also have an Exchange account, and those contacts are showing up as well. However, the groups from the exchange account are not showing up. Is it possible for you to add them?
I usually look people up by their last name, but can't seem to find out how to do that in the application. Is there a way to sort contacts by their last name?
Thanks!

[Q] Customize the Call aps in Android

Hi,
I would like to ask if it's possible to add, customize the Call apps and Contacts apps (which are default) in Android.
My idea is that when you open the Contact list, click on someone there, the screen will display information (Number, Call, SMS now) and I want to add another button under all, so that when you hit, it'll call the user via VOIP or do some function ...
Is it possible to customize the default apps? is there somewhere that I can have the source code of these apps?
What I really need is to add some more function into the Calls apps and Contacts apps but I really don't know where to begin it
Someone can help me?
Thanks in advance

[APP][Free] MeMail - quick email and share utility

Hello world,
Do you email yourself notes, to-do items and links to web pages so you'll remember to deal with them later?
The thing is that each time you have to open your email app, compose a new message, fill in your email address and only then start the message.
So I created MeMail - set up your email address once and you're done.
Launch MeMail and type away.
Found an interesting link? In your browser go: Menu->Share->MeMail and it's there.
Give it a try - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=il.co.spaces.memail
Works with all the email clients, no permissions needed, free.
I would appreciate comments so I could improve further.
Thanks.
AW: [APP][Free] MeMail - quick email and share utility
I thought about writing an app like this. I like to email myself the location where I parked my car. The email is also sent to my girlfriend, so she'll know too. Does your app support multiple recipients and predefined email subject?
The next version (which I'm working on) will have a predefined subject.
I'll also add the option for including current location, why not?
Thanks for commenting.
Great idea. Email myself so many things xD

I think including location is not important, it will make the app too complex perhaps.
It's great that you will support predefined email subject. :good: I use it to apply Gmail filter and label.
Maybe it would be a good idea to have profiles in your app, e.g.
Profile 1
Name: Default
Recipients: me
Subject: MeMail Reminder
Profile 2
Name: Dude, where's my car?
Recipients: me, girlfriend
Subject: Car Location
Is it possible to store message as draft?

Sure, since all the email handling is done by your email client - If you don't send your message it will be saved as draft.

Using profiles is a good idea, but I was thinking more of creating different desktop shortcuts that launch different settings... Profiles could be used when using the sharing feature from within the browser.
Thanks

I'm not sure I understand what this is used for. Say, I have two different desktop shortcuts. What will they do? Could you give an example, please?
Working fine for me.

I would add shortcuts to drafts, so you could easily access stored notes.

I understand. Will you also implement profiles? So that when something is shared to MeMail, the user is prompted which profile should be used and MeMail then creates the email accordingly.
Btw, I tested multiple recipients. It works fine by simply separating the email addresses through a semicolon.
very cool idea, i email myself thing all the time.
Thanks for Sharing

Bad idea, of course profiles seems to be interesting, but don't ask user each time which one to use, add default profile and option in menu to choose default profile.

I agree. This should be an option.

Good idea! Declaring a default account which will be used for sharing within the browser (I actually thought of using a pop-up).

Regarding the shortcuts "system":
Let's say you have two shortcuts - one is called "parking" and the other "notes". When you launch "parking" it has the subject set to - "my car is at:" and the body of the message has your location. It will be sent to you and your girlfriend.
"notes" will have "notes" as the subject and only your email as the recipient.
This way you get the email started immediately (no need to choose a profile).
Launching the main app will let you manage the profiles and shortcuts.

Widget for sending SMS templates

Hello there,
I was wondering if there exists an app which allows you to create a widget/icon for automatically send a pre-maded SMS (to a predefined contact) just by clicking it.
even a gesture could be fine
