Plane Jane MR2 Issue

I can't seem to delete the default contacts such as #data, #min, etc from people using planejane mr2. I press hold and select delete which does not remove the entry. They even display when you go to view options and unselected all phone books. Google, Sim, Phone all display 0 contacts yet they are still around and won't delete.
Update: Just occurred to clear the data in people and that worked.

I have the same issue.... clearing the data doesn't seem to fix it though.

R1lover,
I wrote this up step by step as to what i did to fix the problem.
Here is what I did to delete the items:
1. Start Deleting the system's default contacts and after a few deletes Go to People --> View --> under options it displays how many are left in each book.
Keep deleting them all until you reach 0. It seems only the contacts with a little sim card wouldn't delete. You will be down to just a few contacts left and these are the ones that will not delete. Go back into People --> View --> under options verify there is 0 contacts even if a few still display it listed 0.
Go back to your home screen --> settings --> applications --> manage applications --> all -> open people. Hit the "Clear Data" button and then "Force Stop"

default program settings

i keep being asked which app i would like to perform actions - i make a selection & all is fine until the phone is rebooted, then off it goes again.
i've trawled the general system settings looking for a toggle but failed to find anything related to default settings storage.
any help appreciated
my set-up is in my sig.

Probably another program overriding your selections. Try try going to Menu button on your phone and select Settings option, scroll down to the Applications section and tap it. On the next screen, tap Manage Applications and then the All tab on the subsequent screen, scroll down the list of apps until you see the App in question listed and tap that entry. On the next screen look for the "Launch by default" section and hit the Clear defaults button. Reboot and select the default program you want and see if it sticks on the next reboot. Let me know if this helps.

good logical advice, which you would assume would do the trick.
unfortunately, it doesn't fix the problem
i was wondering if there's a file somewhere whch can be edited & locked?

im not 100% sure where those things are saved, maybe in settings.db file of the android settings app.
Check your phones app directory, there should be something like
com.android.providers.settings and com.android.settings
I could imagine that the filepermissions are wrong on certain files and thus your new selection are not saved.

i've searched for hours with no success for a db file. i do believe you are on the right trac but it'll take a smarter mind than my own to highlight where the setting is hiding.
there is a lockscreen toggle option on the redux2 rom, so i've asked over there.
thank you both for your thoughts

Text Message Tone

I can't change the native text message incoming sound on my new A9
Dedinity not using a 3rd party app. Definitely have no other one on my phone. The only thing I have is Nova, which I am not using. Still on Sense.
Im in the app and goto notifications and then under "Incoming Sound" I select a different one, hit apply, then nothing happens.
Thanks
So Much

Try from the Themes app

So can't I. Believe it is a bug. Know anyway to report to HTC?
Another bug is that if you use set default in app management menu, you'll have no way to clear the default(allow app picker upon action), unless you install another can do browsing, messaging or calling.

I'm confused what app you are using? My default text messages app doesn't say "Incoming Sound" as a setting. It just says "Notification sound" and I can change it without issue.

Can you tell me after you pick the tone from the settings of the message app, will the text still be "Default ringtone(Dahlia)"?

Nope. It changes to what I select (note, I set my default to Lotus).

Sorry for not making it clear. I can chamge to whichever preloaded tone as well. Bit it seemed impossible to use any custom tone I pit in notification folder under my storage.

Go to your "Settings" -> "Apps" -> select "All Apps" on the top; scroll down and select "Messages". Select "Permissions" and allow "Storage" to be turned on as part of the Apps Permissions. Go back to your message settings, and select the "Notification sound" you'd like. After messing around for an hour I found that this worked for me; hopefully it'll work for you as well.

Good find. I've noticed that permissions are a lot more granular with Marshmallow than with Lollipop it seems

Thanks all. Especially CJ926
How did you even know this. I (novice) even switched back from the combined storage to separate storage. Apparently it had nothing to do with that. And I have a lot of my own tones and it also had nothing to do with that.
Really how did you know.
and Jolly, what in this case do you mean by granular?
(I do get 2 text messages to myself when I text myself (I know, a crazy way, but my preferred quick way to note myself. Not just here but in the interim while using the Zmax. Any clues CJ orJolly)
II am getting used to the phone. Like it. Not loving it yet. The hiccups in speed are np. For me it is the size. Hard to go from a bigger phone, Note 5 to this. Typing. I guess it just takes time. Afterall I was once using a phone this size. And iPhone users have for years.

Saved my day! Thanks a lot.

Love the phone. But it is gonna take getting used to from a Note to this size wise

For eric0668, sorry for the late reply as I was at work till very late last night. I guess I was just lucky to notice the option, after messing with A9 for an hour upon getting it. Marshmallow does contain lots of smaller details when it comes to 'App Permissions' (possibly what Jolly meant by 'granular'), which is very nice for customization purposes.
I'm not sure if you've already figured it out eric0668, but you'd have to do something similar like what I mentioned, if you'd like to customize incoming ringtone for individual contacts under your "Phonebook." Go to your "Settings" -> "Apps", then select the three vertical dots on your top right portion of the screen, and you should see a "Configure apps" option. Select it and then select the "App permissions" option. Scroll down to "Storage", select it and then scroll down to "People" and turn the option on. This way you wouldn't be stuck on the "default" ringtone for your individual contacts.
There's plenty of customization options under App permissions, so I hope this will also help you out.

I've noticed with the A9 if an app doesn't work properly then so far it's always been related to the permissions as stated above. After reading this thread I FINALLY got my notification tone for messaging to work. I've always used a particular tone from Zedge. Last night at a grocery store I used (tried to use) my store app to scan my shopper club card. It forced close as soon as I signed in! Later at night I read a thread somewhere online and went to Settings>Apps>Wegmans>Permissions and turned them on. BAM, the app works fine!
Other than this minor quirk, the only things I don't like about the phone are 1) It's so new I had a hell of a time finding a case. I settled for a $6 cheapo online with $15 next day shipping. 2) Without a case the phone is like holding a stick of butter! 3) I seriously miss the front dual speakers on all the "One" models. The only thing keeping me from returning this phone for an M9 is the fingerprint scanner! The M9 would be free for my upgrade, this A9 cost me $150 to upgrade. ?

Lg keyboard crashes

Anyone noticing LG Keyboard crashing??? It happens pretty often. I tried to clear the data but evidently on marshmallow you can go. Yet but you cannot clear any data.

Go to your phones settings > general tab > apps > click the 3 dots menu at the top right > select show system > scroll down to LG Keyboard > click on the word storage > then click clear data.
Let me know if this is what you are looking for, hope it helps!

Ahhhhh that's what I was looking for. Its slightly different on Lollipop. I expected the data option to be next to force stop.
Many thanks!

Question Link share options

Hi, I need some help with my device. I'm lost with this one...
I was sharing a link to my friend and accidentally chose the "Always" option in the sharing screen. Now every time I hit "share" in that particular app, it goes straight to the app I accidentally selected to be the "always" app.
I would like to get the sharing work like before and like in every other app. So that the sharing options shows up and I can select which ever app I want the link to be shared.
Only solution I found on internet was going Settings - Apps - hitting the 3 dot menu and selectin Reset app preferences. This seems to reset every application, so I'd rather not do this.
Does anyone know what I need to reset to get it back without resetting the whole phone or all of the apps.
S22U with Goodlock module Home Up if that matters...
Thanks

Under App info for that app is Set as Default option. Click on it and clear defaults under that option. Also try under the other, "always" app

Somehow I completely missed clearing defaults for the app that was set as the "always" app. Doing that brought the sharing options back.
Thanks a million times
