Can you not view a contact's phone history? - T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers

Can't find the option under the contact's info nor in the phone history log. I have to basically browse through a of the history which is obviously a pain. Am I missing something or do I need to go shopping for a new phone app? Thanks

If you select the number from the call log you will see 3 dots in the upper right hand corner that will let you see all history

Adding number from Call History to existing Contacts

hi
I want to add a number from Call History to one of my existing contacts (i.e, add to home telephone of an existing contact)
However, when hold and tap number in Call History, it open a new contact instead of letting us choose an existing contact
Any program that can let us do that
My device is O2 XDA IIi
Thanks

There isn't any way around this, though maybe there will be in WM2005 or through a third party program.
It's something that annoys me, too. The way round it is to get it up as a New contact, then copy the number and cancel saving the contact, go to the correct contact and add it that way.
Bit long winded, but other than writing it down by hand or remembering it I don't think there's any other way.
Cheers

Hey Guys..
Simple trick....
Tap and hold the number in the call history
Then select option "Send Text Message"
Then copy/cut that Number and paste in the contacts
Then cancel the message
I hope, this sounds OK

1st and foremost. I love this phone (GPS issues aside) it's perfect and the greatest thing that has ever happened to me which is sad.
A few Android questions (I'm running Cog 2.2 B6 with Launcher Pro):
Is there a way to organize your favorites or am I relegated to alphabetized favorites list?
Is there a way I can go directly to dial my favorites?
I am coming from an iPhone and I can't figure out how to select text that is off of the screen. Example: This is a textbox with a senten (how do I get to where the "ce" in sentence would be?)
Can I get Facebook push notifications?
Sometimes the facebook app goes into normal webpage view mode when I'm looking at my notifications, is that a bug?
For the call log is there a way where I can only see phone transactions and not text. It looks like I can view by missed, dialed OR received calls but not all 3. Otherwise I have to view all my texts as well.
Thanks,

First keep in mind that the current Froyo is a leaked pre-release so there are some small bugs, such as the email app issue with exchange.Alright abou the selecting text that is off the screen, I am not sure what you mean by this as normally text is wrapped? what application are you having this issue in? I.E, the browser. as far as customizing your favorites layout, I do not believe there is an option for that, only to switch to grid view. What I do since I can have up to 7 home screens (I only use 4) I use one home screen as a favorite contacts list (not sure if you can do this on launcher pro but I would guess yes) hold click home screen and select add shortcut> select either a contact that will bring up the call/email/sms/mms/navigate (if there is an address for contact) or instead of selecting a normal contact you can select "Direct Dial" it will allow you to select a contact as before but when you hit this contact on the home screen, instead of getting the normal options it will directly dial that contact. it's actually a pretty nice way to manage your favorite contacts.
Hope this helps a little! also before I forget you know when looking at a contact (including in the favorites list) you can swipe to the right on the contact to call or to the left to sms. a couple other things, you can pinch inward on the home screen in Touchwiz to zoom out to tiles of your home screens and the same is true in the TW app list, zooms out too see all app pages. the swipe to call/sms works regardless of you using launcher pro though, good luck!
Good idea about the homepage dedicated for contacts. I set that up.
It seems my sim and my google contacts have duplicated many entries. Is it possible to combine the two, so I don't have a SIM entry and a Google entry?
Also, how do I associate a picture with a contact?
Thanks,

To join contacts go into the contact itself, hit the menu button and then join contact.
After you join the contacts you may want you can go into the contacts app, hit menu, more, then display settings. You can tell the phone what type of contacts you want displayed. The only downside is all contacts are displayed when spelling out a name using the dialer.

Perhaps I'll delete the entries out of my SIM card and then I'll be able to easily modify my G-Mail contacts list.
Do you know of anyway how to delete all the entries for a SIM card?
Also, I still don't know how to associate pictures?
The easiest way that I know the delete all of the contacts on the sim is to display only the sim contacts and hit the menu button then delete. Then click all of the contacts one at a time. Once you are done then go back and display the contacts you want active.
To add a picture go into the contact, edit, then click on the stock picture, should have a little plus in it, and this will let you either take a picture our use one from your library.

Also if you hve FaceBook and you sync it (the widget or what ever) when you set it up deselect add all conteacts and select the ones who are also in your phone contacts list. Then when you join the two contacts (your phone/google copy) with you Facebook contact of the same person it use the FB profile picture in your contacts list and will change as that person changes there FB profile picture, it will also show there current FB status. also if you go to the activities tab in contacts after syncing FB it will show all the recent wall posts ect.

[Q] People App - how to view contacts by nickname?

Does anyone know how to view your contact list by their "Nickname" you set in the People app? How do you get the Nickname to show up when receiving a call from someone, rather than their First and Last name. I'm looking through the menu and there only seems to be an option for First name and Last name. Maybe there's an app in the Marketplace that gives you extended options?
When close family members call me, I'd rather it show "mom cell" or "dad cell" as opposed to their formal first and last names. I could just put Mom Cell, in the Name field of the contact card, but this will disrupt my gmail Contacts list when I go to use a desktop.
It seems like a lapse in android or htc's software for this feature to be absent. Anyone have any ideas?
What I do is make a new contact named Mom and then I sync it to her facebook then I click it and edit it and change the name from the drop down menu from her real name to Mom

Facebook integration question

I have integrated Facebook into my HTC HD7. I get the What's New Stream from contacts, can post on their walls and can see their individual's FB pages. But I have yet to find a way to update my status message without doing a text, going to the web, or the FB app. Anyone have the answer?
Click on your "Me" tile, then tap your current status message. This will bring up a text box in which you can type your new status.
