Hi Guys,
Does anyone know how to set the default number for a contact in WM6 ... either I am getting blinder the older I get or the WM6 crew forgot to add it too their OS as I can't see the option when I access a contact with multiple numbers.
Thanks
default number
try this, maybe it works
got to contacts-> brows to the person you want-> push the joystick/navigation button to the right (or left) till it shows the number you want as default.exit. the next time you go to the contact in the list the number you choose is the default one.
this works on my wm6 version
Thanks Brooks.nl that worked perfectly Only wish I could set this in Outlook before it synchronized
Does anyone know if there is a reg hack for selecting contacts with no phone numbers from the smart dialer in WM6. I would be totally happy with the search feature if I could search all of my contacts. I use my contacts as a means of organizing lots of information and many entries do not have phone numbers and are therefore not searchable via this interface.
Does anyone know where in the registry this is possible or if it is even possible to do? This would be the fastest most effective way to select a contact if we could correct this issue.

Use EZDial by MESoftware.

Just tried it and ezdialer does NOT find contacts with no phone numbers. I currently use pocketCM and it works quite well but still lacking some features that I require. Ideally the reg hack if possible would solve all issues until pocketCM is fully functional.
You guys are my last hope before I update my phone and give this one to my sister. I am still searching for a the reg hack that will enable me to use the smart dialer to view contacts that have no phone #'s. Anyone
Guys,
I've posted this before but nobody has helped me yet.
Basically put I have a couple of contacts for which I have more than one contact number (home, Mobile etc..)
Anyway, when i receive a call from one of these contacts, the name is not resolved, the picture is not shown and the custom ringtone I have chosen (all by vanilla stock rom means) does not ring!!
I have seen this happen with "Exact" matches to contacts in my Contacts list and also if I have entered the number as "+447760....." instead of using the default "07760...." prefix for UK mobile numbers (as I'm abroad a lot so need to use that to dial them) it also refuses to recognise that they are in fact the same number - something my Artemis did without an issue.
Please help me resolve this - it's ruining my HD experience!
Thanks
21 views and no replies - come on guys please - going on a trip tomorrow and I need this to be sorted if poss - doing my head in!!
I had exactly the same problem on my X1, which I have now sold so I could get a HD. I was on o2 uk using itje's 5.061 rom. What network are you on and which rom and what software have you installed? maybe something we both installed is causing the problem
Right, I'm on a stock rom on an unbranded Touch HHD on the Vodafone network. Programs I've installed are as follows:
Changscreen,
HDTweak
Advanced Config
S K Tools
Battlog
Fingerkeyboard
Resco file Explorer
Very strange - it might have happened since I restored a backup but I doubt it.
Try reducing Phone>Call ID match number in Advanced Config.
I have similar problem... Just installed dutty 3.0X and when i sinchronized all my contacts become duplicated, so i deleted manual only the first ones. And now when someone from the contacts is ringing i dont get picture or his name and I am sure that i have the same number in the contact list. Odd
Anyone have any other ideas about this? Still causing me some considerable pain - I seem to recall it started after I started to reconcile the outlook contacts with my PC - this may have caused a different contact ID (or something?)
same problem and no solutoin... :-(
i managed to fix this by reassigning the phone numbers to the contacts page. It seems to occur when you use 3rd party contact management apps before you have assigned numbers.
Works fine now
mslookout inserts spaces into phone number, and prolly phone cannot recognise incoming number having spaces in phonebook?
I also cant fix it by changing CallIDMatch in the registry. It's bizarre as I have 2 contacts in my favourites: both are now set to No's starting with '0' yet when one texts me, their name shows and when the other does, their number shows. hard and soft resets have also failed to resolve this, HTC helpdesk no use at all, also logged with Windows helpdesk in case it is a microsoft, not htc, problem.
Am keen for other things to try, open to suggestions....
Am disappinted and amazed that what is otherwise a great phone, can't do what cheap cr*ppy phones, can , ie show the name of the person calling or texting.
Have you tried using Advanced Config and increasing Call ID match to 9 or 10?
No caller name when receiving Incoming Call
This may be an old thread, but sometimes the newer ROMs also have the same problem.
This happened to me after updating my from from WM 6.1 to WEH 6.5.3. So, I am updating this thread on how I resolved my problem.
Step 1. Edit the Registry and change the CallIDMatch value to 7 (the original value was 10).
Code:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Phone]
"CallIDMatch"=dword:00000007
Step 2. Soft Reset (power off and restart)
Before I did this, I needed to copy my contacts from SIM to the Outlook Contacts list, so in my Contacts list, I have "double view" of both lists on the same screen - frustrating.
After this change of the Registry key value, I erased all my contacts from the Outlook Contacts list (use the Hide Sim Contacts function) because I prefer to have my default contacts to be from the SIM card instead of the Outlook Contacts. This way, I can be assured that all newer contacts will be stored on the SIM card and I do not have to worry about losing contacts if I change phones.
Hi to all, I want to have a cleaner Phone Dialer list in my Rhodium...
I've already removed SIM Contacts, but i want to remove Device Contacts too...
Also Call History is useless due the use of Call Registry...
Maybe is possible to have an empy Phone Dialer list with only the space to compose the telephone number (same skin obviously)?
Tnx very much!

If you want to disable call history, I guess you can try to do that with advanced config 3.3.
Just set the max call history on 0
Hi,
I am working on a custom phone dialer app. Here is what we expect:
When opening the contacts or the call history and clicking one call phone number, the default WM6 phone app would not be invoked and popped up, instead our phone app would be shown. And the selected phone number would be caught;
1). When clicking a number in Contacts list or CallLog, how do I stop the default behavior---starting the default WM6 phone dialer app--- and launch the custom phone dialer app we provide?
2). Since the number clicked is not a hard key, how can I catch the event and pass it to the custom phone app?
Really appreciate any helps,
Mike J.
you can't override windows and replace files in it, the best you can hope for (ask HTC and Samsung) is to either skin or create with windows. In your case you're trying to create a dialer that will basically hide most functions already build into windows (contacts, missed calls, etc) I think what you want to do is build the entire program yourself from scratch...link it how you want then tag it with green button so that instead of the default dialer opening your program (dialer with your own customizable setup) will open. I believe that is the easiest solution. Out of curiousity, what exactly are the current dialers lacking that makes you want to create your own dialer? Eitherwaygood luck with your project
