Hi my Qtek S100 sent SMS messages doesn´t display the name of people that are in my phonebook, only de number. Is it possible to show de name not the number?
Thanks
I have that too, My mda compact only shows the names when i'm replying to a message
May be you can try this when sending sms:
In the "To" field, they the name of the person you want to send, just a first few letters, the possible names will come out, then choose the right one. Doing in this way, the name and telephone number of the recipient will appear on your sms notification.
PS: I am using this for IIs.
Nop! It only shows de number wich is very bad because that way i had to remember everyones phone number... Impossible they are 800. Imagine when i send multiple sms ( i advertise my club events personally to my friends that way). Even with a 50€ phone we can do that today... And that´s so simple to fix... Hallooooooo Microsoft!!!!!!!!!! Its a shame that a so good OS like this misses so elementary issues...

Are your numbers stored under the "mobile" field in your contacts? not sure if this will solve your problem, but I found that when my firend's mobile numbers were stored under "home" or "business", the SMS program will not automatically detect it.
Try moving a few to "mobile" and see what happens.
Sent SMS name identification reply
The primary mobile number is always in the mobile field (that´s another estupid thing in outlook fields because several people have more than one mobile phone, for different operators and we have only one mobile field in here). But that's not the problem, intellipad finds all the number fields but when you do enter, the selected number goes to the "to" field in the message only with the number not the name. If you do the same procedure with keyboard (you begin typping the inicial letters) and a new pop up box appears with the names and the numbers, when you choose the name it goes to the "to" field with both the name and the number. To type sms messages you don´t have most of the times pacience to grab the stylus and type with keyboard, it´s a different procedure, most of the times you are on the run, that´s the concept of the sms message, a quick and practical way to contact somebody without calling...
thanks
hmm...
... strangely enough, the intellipad feature isn't working now, after having flashed to the latest Qtek 1.06 ROM :?
In the TO: field, typing letters does not seem to trigger an "auto-search"... which is what you described in your post above, amaro. This was working perfectly on my old ROM, though I did skip the auto-installation after hard reset, so maybe it has something to do with that.
never mind.. i fixed the problem with a soft-reset.
SMS sent messages again...
Kai, does the new ROM fixed the front speaker sound problems? How do you find the new ROM? Can you send sms messages with intellipad showing the reciever name and number?
Thanks

Amaro,
Do you mean the earpiece for normal phone calls? (and not the speakerone next to the mirror) If so, I can say with a definite yes that there have been improvements! I got one of the first XDA mini's locally and was treated to high-pitched distortions and crackling sounds, y'know, the types that threaten to blow your ear drums away if you're not careful. After the 1.05 RADIO update, I have not noticed any problems after 60 mins of phone calls. I cannot say it has eliminated the problem 100%, that will take more time, but as of now it is MUCH IMPROVED.
Click THIS for information and instructions how the 1.05 radio upgrade. Be sure to backup everything as it *WILL* do a hard reset after the upgrade, which I did not know about :roll:
The messages in "Sent Items" folder does not contain the number of the recepient. What it shows is the number of the sender (My cell number).
What is this? bug?

Just got a new XDA2 and I'm having a strange problem with text messages. I send a text as a single message ( less than 160 characters ) but at the other end it arrives as three seperate texts. The message appears to be broken up randomly, often broken in mid word. This has happened with messages sent to several different people including one on O2 like me so it seems its not a cross network problem. I've tried changing the phone for a new one and that didint solve it and if I use the same sim card in my old T68i everything is fine... Anyone else experieneced this ?? Any advice very welcome as O2 dont seem to have a clue...

Hi Gavin!
Same problem here , what extras are you running? I have battery pack 2004, MS voice, Games pack 2. then in my inbox 112 sms, sent items 107. also running check notifications. Sound more like an O2 problem :evil: . Anyway let me know if you managed to resolve the problem!
MerryXmas & Happy New Year! :lol:
Kind regards :wink: Jim.
I also had this problem with my MDA II, but only once. Since then, (and even after at least 6 Hard Resets) everything seems to work out fine.
Don't know what causes this problem, but maybe it helps you to know that I had this one in spite of using t-mobile.
MDA II
I dont know if this is related but when I use ' even at less than 160 the messages become split into 2 or more. But when i remove the ' it goes back to the original unsplit form, so I avoid using ' in my sms.
It IS related, as that is the fault. If you do a search on these forums you'll find lots of posts about this...I've posted a few times myself.
You say you bought a new XDA2, I'd be interested in knowing whether this is NEW or new to YOU...in either case does the phone have IntelliPad and IntelliDialer installed? If so, then that would further back up my theory that it's the dictionary that IntelliPad, in particular, uses and causes the old unicode problem.
As advised before on these forums, try going to Inbox > Accounts > Accounts - SMS > "Send SMS messages using UniCode when necessary", and choose No on this option.
See if that helps.
Cheers
Anthony
hey guys
I had this problem for sooo long and really annoyed my girlfriend, lol!
But the solution is: Goto Settings => input => Wod Completion and turn of ' Replace text as you type'. It splits the message beacause as you type a word like "Im" it automaticlly changes it to "I'm" however the apostrophe in the middle is the curly kind n for some reason isnt supported by SMS. So as long as you send txts with striaght instead of curly apostrophes you should be fine. (well it worked for me! )

Sorry to return to an older topic, but nobody answered me and this bug is really annoying...
Sometimes selecting a contact and "send Sms" from its card pulls up a blank SMS form, without the receiver's number already typed in. This happens with some contacts only, but... HOW DO I FIX THIS?
TIA,
yours truly (exhausted)
Hmm... have you tried recreating the contact?
This happened to me before, when sending text messages, or even emails, it lets you just click on the space provided and puts in the contact numbers. However for SMS, use your stylus and tap on the "To:" word.
Ta da! It's actually on the manual and I've been trying to figure this thing out for a while myself. Good luck
I have tried this on my qtek and does not have this bug. Do you need to send sms this way or can you not select message\new then select to to get list of contacts - may solve your problem. If not prob a ROM problem - did a quick search cannot find any references to new qtek italian rom so suggest you go to qtek italian website to look for new rom. Or upgrade to WWE ROM
Good luck
Cutejules: I know you can use that workaround, but still the problem remains. Why only a few contacts have this bug? How can it be solved?
Meschle: I don't think there is any upgraded IT rom, but I will look about the WWE thing (which I don't know anything about, but I'm sure there are infos about somewhere in this forum)
i dont think it pulls up a blank page, the problem I noticed after a while is it pulls up a sms page and shows you half way down the page as if you have scrolled down.
the work around = scroll back up.

the number should be saved as mobile, may be you saved it as somthing els like home or work.
Karzi: nope, it's the actual "To:" field which comes up blank.
Ammar: Nope again. The "missing" numbers are correctly listed as "mobile"
This is really driving me crazy...
I was in a minor state of emergency earlier - where I had to send an MMS to a mate :x
This was my first time writing a MMS on the Vario (I had previously done so on the MDA Compact) so I was doing the usual....then it came down to entering the contacts...
Unlike sending a SMS message or email, the number of person does not come up as you type in the name. In fact, nothing comes up - and in the end, I had to copy the name onto a sheet of paper and then manually type it down into the Vario(!)
Am I missing something here? Your help is much appreciated
just click on the send icon near wher u type the name this will take u to the contacts list.

On mine it's the word 'To:', and don't worry you're not alone - I did exactly the same thing and eventually had to read the manual :shock:
Update the ROM to the latest version and it will automatically bring up there number when you type the name in

which exactly ROM version do you mean? with mine it does not work, although it's latest one from i-mate.
Sending MMS's
When I type the name in - it actually thinks i'm typing in the text part as it attempts to suggest words - pretty useless for contacts !!
BUT......
Actually click the word "To:" .. it doesn't look like a shortcut or anything - and it actually opens contacts....
yes - RTFM really does work !
On my BlueAngel (2003SE) - it correctly shows contacts when typing in the "To:" field...

Hi guys! Hope eveyone had a pleasant new year's celebration.
Anyway, I was hoping that somebody could either post the link or the file of the modified 02 SMS Plus that will run on any WM5 device. I have a WM5 device but unfortunately isn't from 02 and would love to have its functionality.
I have searched this forum for HOURS and cannot seem to find it.
Cheers in advance!

Does anyone know if you can send a text message to a contact's secondary number?
i.e. if I had a contact
Mr A
Mobile: 123456789 (default)
Mobile2: 1232465933
Is there a way that I can select Mobile2 in the text message 'To' field. Currently it will only come up with the default number.
I know that you can send a message via the contacts screen.

I gave someone in my contacts list a faux secondary mobile number and when I start typing their name the Auto Complete finds both mobile numbers just fine. Am I understanding you correctly?
you can text that person through the Contacts app instead of Messaging.
Open Contacts then go to the specific contact then hit the secondery phone no.

Same here, just changed a contact so that two numbers were marked "mobile" and went to messaging, typed the first two letters of the contact name and both mobile numbers showed up for selection.
Thanks for the info, I was being a bit dumb, or rather didn't realise that texting only picks up contacts marked as mobile. Some of mine were marked as home etc...
Thanks again!
Hello,
Since this is the only place that has this problem raised on the web, I"m asking for your help. I have a htc rhodium, touch pro2.
I have the same problem that the other guy had but worse. I cannot change the secondary number to mobile. I have options for: home, company, work, car.. etc?
I cannot do it even via the contacts screen.
How do I resolve this?... :?
Please help anyone?
P.S. I know this is not the right subforum, but since it is discussed here....

Yes, many people have dual phones, but only one of them is meant for business.

not necessarily true..
I use both my phones for business. I divide contacts based on importance. But this is not a business discussion
and this problem means that I can send SMS to only one of those numbers, or make a new contact with a second number... time consuming
strange, very strange behaviour.
My very old nokia did not have this problem..
I really hope android gets ported to the rhodium, windows let me down again...
