New Contacts

Hi
I have a small problem witch my Contacts, when I save a new contact it shows with the last name first. Is there any solution or settings I have missed?
I want the first name first Now I open up the contact in Outlook on my desktop and save it again.
Have the latest ROM for my S100.

A solution has been posted before, and consists of 4 small cab files which give you 4 options in the pop-up menu when you select a contacT: firstname-lastname, lastname-firstname, company-first-last and company-last-first. Try a search on this forum or on Hofo, I am sure I got it from there. good luck!

I have searched the forums before posting but I couldnt find anything useful. If anyone knows where those 4 cab files are plz send me in the right direction.
My search results contains several pages with many threads
Takes ages to read them all.
I dont wanna be lazy but I have done my best to find a solution on my own.

The forum I got the cab files and link from is down, sorry. I could email you the cabs. Just send me an email at jdfkok at hotmail.com and I will send you the files.

Thanx! I sent u an email.

Found it!

Yep, that's the link I got them from. I got there through another forum, which was down yesterday and I could not remember the original forum and thread. I have emailed the cabs to all the people who emailed me asking for them, the people who read this thread from now on can find them through the link. read the install instructions in the posts in order to get the alfabetical order right. Finally a solution which should have been built-in from the start!

Send Contacts using SMS's

Dear All,
i have tired from searching for an application to enable me send a contact details using SMS. after a long search i found a similar application called RJV SendContact (http://www.airfagev.com/forum_view.asp?msg_id=52421) , but it is for smart phones. do anyone know a similar application that can work with our PPC Wizard devices.

Can't help, but i would like one too.
Yet another big shortfall with WM5. I mean, FFS, Vcard's have been a standard feature in mobiles for years.

Hi there.
Try looking/searching for Sunnysoft Vcard. Google it and you will know that it is what you guys are looking for.
Regards.

Try Vazu.
I used it back about two years ago when they first offered it as a free beta. I used it for a year and then they tried to start charging for it. But I see now that they are once again offering the service free of charge, except for international SMS messages.
BTW, I have no connection of any kind with them, except that I used it for a while.
Good luck.

this is for sending sms for the us, but not Vcards from your device.

I don't know if it's just US or not, but you can upload your contacts (read: vCards) to their site and they will then be sent to your phone via SMS.
That info may be beyond the main page - read through the site and you'll see what I'm talking about. I used it about two years ago when they first established the site to send about 200 Outlook contacts from my PC to a Motorola T720 (Ugh 0 what a dog that phone was!)
OK - I copied the link directly to the page that explains how to import contacts from Outlook, Outlook Express, Apple Mail, or Ximian Evolution (Whatever that is) for transmission directly to your cell phone:
https://www.vazu.com/help/import_contact.php

Many Thanks
Many Thanks for your effort, it can be a replacement

I use this small program. it adds "Sens as Vcard"to the contactsmenu, when you hold your stylus on a contact.
And it recognises Vcards when you recieve them.
I don't know where I found this so I attach it to this post, I hope this is not Illegal. Otherwise Google for vCardforminiS.cab
good luck

Great App, but i google for it i did not find anything concerning this app, anyway , thanks alot

I could not find it with google eather, sorry for the wrong tip

o2 sms has this feature
The O2 SMSprogram has this feature. Someone on this forum posted the version that can be installed on the Wizard. I tried it once but found it a bit slow. Then again I was running the original Cingular Rom which sucked big time. Search for the thread and try it out. The only drawback is that the application does not eliminate the messages from also showing up in the default WM5 messaging application.

I tried installing it in my phone. It says Installation unsuccessful. Am I doing anything wrong ?

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!

O2sms woks well onWM5 devices!

problem with RECIEVING pic mail

I recently upgraded to the dc rom with the gps and when i recieve pics from other people when i go to view them/download them i get sent to the sprint picture mail page that you go on with regular internet. It shows a small thumbnail pic and when i go to download the pic the button dont even work. Anyone Know why im redirected to that site and not the normal pic mail site where i can enlarge the pic or download it? It very frustrating first the mms software doesnt work so i have to send pics via email now this any help will be greatly appreciated thanks

You need to update your User Agent String. Here's a .cab that will fix it for you (I don't want to link to the thread or file on PPCGeeks until they get their site straightened out but that's where I found this last weekend).

around the same time u sent that i found that file in the dcd new rom. It works great thanks for your help

END:VCARD
Any ideas ???

anybody ???

POSSIBLE answer to your problem!
Seeing as I'm not sure if I can post a link to an external site, I'll give you some details!!
a company called 'handster.com' make a program from Windows Mobile called "kais_vcard_manager". This might be able to help you!
Its not freeware I'm afraid, but if it does what you require, it doesn't cost too much!

another utility available is "vCard Expert" available from windows phone marketplace. i found this better than kais vcard manager but looks as though it only works on windows mobile 6.5

Thanks Guys...
much appreciated, I'll take a look at both...
cheers...
