Hi guys I know the question I'm going to asked has been done before but I can't seem to find it through the search function tonight.
Why do some contact have the names reversed?
Examples of whats happening,
Work, Jeff
Two, Home
Depot, Geraldton
Is there anyway of fixing this?
With the last one in particular I have other listings of different depots which have saved correctly :?
Cheers for any thoughts or if someone knows what the heading was for the topic previously.

I know what your talking about and remember the post and looked it up for you and heres the link. Thank vijay555 for the link to this site cuz i found it in one of his posts.
http://discussion.brighthand.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=79834
go to that link and theres two tweaks for your ppc. one saves them as company lastname, firstname and the other does firstname lastname.
enjoy
Thanks so much for that guys, will check out the link and give it a whirl

fone_fanatic: thanks. I think this should really be made sticky, it's an essential app, beautifully written.

I love my Tytn 2 but what has always annoyed me is the number of clicks to get to a new SMS screen:
start -> messaging -> sms/mms -> menu -> new -> sms
I have to make sure i dont accidentally press MMS -- I never use MMS and I dont know anyone who does! Never seems to work between different phone types anyway.
I'd like to hack the registry to get rid of all MMS options if possible.
Also any shortcuts to get straight to the "new SMS" window ?
Thanks
Dave
The place to ask questions is the Questions & Answers section of the forum.
I almost did it, almost gave the answer !
This is one of those things that is all over the place, literally, just search. After searcing, tell me exactly how long it took you to find it.
ok sorry guys for posting in wrong place -- I did search everywhere. if you can be arsed to reply then maybe help by pointing me in the right direction -- you are typing anyway!
search for "remove MMS options only returns my post -- thats what i was searching for. "SMS shortcut" -- fair enough!! but thats not actually what i was looking for...
sorry gods of xda ;-)
Well posted wrong or not, i can give you a tip...
Go to contacts, click the contact of whom you want to send an sms and choose send sms, sure is a shorter way, at least if you going to do a new sms and add a contact
Thanks Leonick -- obvious!! ive only been using WM for about 4 years
Why I bother sometimes.........
Create a text file with notepad, and type this exactly:
"\Windows\tmail.exe" -service "SMS" -to "" - body ""
Then save it as New SMS.lnk
just a recommendation here..
you could use the actionscreen application..i have it mapped on the bottom bar for quick access. It takes 2 clicks to get started on a new sms this way
no. no. don't answer here. we go through this over and over again every time.

no one has told me yet how to remove MMS options --and a search for this does not turn up anmy results. Yes, people have told me how to add shortcut to SMS.
maybe read my post properly before getting on your high horse. I'm not some kind of "newb"...

You're NOT going to remove the MMS option. You were complaining that you might tap MMS instead. Oh dear God!!! So instead of all those clicks after clicks after clicks you had to do, I gave you the answer you needed, a simple shortcut to create an SMS.
Yeah, we're friendly, but we get a bit tired of seeing these new threads started, even though there are signs every where, DO NOT POST HERE!
Seriously, what does this have to do with development?

"development and HACKING" - I wanted to know if there was a way of HACKING the registry to remove the MMS options...dear god indeed.
Also, you answer to the SMS issue was WRONG and incomplete. Shame you cant put as much energy into replying to posts as to GRIPING...
anyways, over and out and thanks for your input...
I've been searching through all the threads, and while there are questions relating to this, there appear to be no answers.
I'll appologise to admins and wizards in advance right now. Sorry if this has been covered somewhere, but I've been searching for a month now, and I've found nothing that works.
All I want to do is change the default apps for windows mobile. You can do it in Windows; why not WM? I've tried SPB Mobile shell, Gsmart (which I really like), and Manilla 2D. I can't change the default apps for Calendar, SMS, Clock, etc.
The ssmapa app won't work. Don't know why just gives an error when 'Init' is clicked. Can't find any info on that error, and I've tried all the other suggestions I've seen.
Haven't been able to find a pointer to anything in the Registry that would allow me to change the default app. I've edited the reg to stop tmail.exe being the default app, but I still get it popping up when I click the messages button.
Can anyone provide details on how to edit any of the shell apps, or the windows registry; which one I don't care. If I can find one that'll work, I'll use that app.
This is driving me a bit mad.
I thank the people who've written up how to's on the xml for spb, gsmart, manilla, and the like. They're useful for changing the look of the shell, but not the functionality. They are really great additions to the forum.
Great work guys (and gals ).
Any help would really be appreciated, prior to me forcibly removing all my hair folicles.
If this has been covered, can someone please post a link to the exact place in the thread. If you can, that would mean that, apparently I can't use the search function properly.
Thank you all, and great forum.
Hi all,
I'm VERY new to Android Development and I'm finally at the point where I'm starting to write my first VERY basic app.
I've done a bunch of reading and watched a bunch of tutorials to get to this point.
I'm one of the tutorials I'm watching they show how the 'Quick Fix' in Eclipse can help with things such as suggesting which imports to use and and option to import them.
For instance I'm defining a Button that I put on my main layout and I haven't imported anything... now I know I have to add the button class, but can't figure out how to get the quick fix working so that it shows suggestions.
Right now if I click on the line and hit CTRL+1 (or select it fromt he Edit menu) it just gives 'No suggestions available'.
I've done some searching and haven't found anything to help with this yet.
Thanks for any information!
**** UPdate ****
Ugg, total newbie error.
I was trying to define them outside of the public class, so of course it didn't know what the H*LL I wanted to do. :0
Moved them inside and it pops right up now..

No I can't But at least two of the referred posts contained registry modifying cabs. Didn't those work?

I can see the reg but don't know what to do with it. what value I need to change, that I don't know...
It's trial and error like always... If You can't get the correct cab file, just look inside the other cab files and see what they do in the registry. And experiment. Be creative There's not much other options... And if You are not enough motivated to try things and learn, then it's not that important I guess.
Sorry, that's about the limit of the help I can provide.
