Contatcs category - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps

If I close Contacts application with Filter by one Category, when I open it again, it shows my all contacts, is it possible to do that when you open Contacts application it shows contacts filtered by one category?
Thank you.

Not possible, as far as I know.
Use iContact instead, it allows you to start in Favourites view and the Favourites category is definable.
I'm using iContact BE 6.4.5 with the Lycox Diamond skin.

Can I use icontact with TouchFlo 3D?
Where can i get it?

Can I synchronize it with Outlook in my PC?

I have installed it and it is Ok.
I see that it substitute Contacts and so, forget my question about synchronization.
Is it no possible to close it? (it remains active and you have to close it trought Task manager, is it?)
Thank you.

How do you defined the Favourite category?
In Favourite you have the contacts that you add to favourites by pressing the star, but can you asign categories in Outlook and fix one of this categories (family, for exemple) as Favourite?
Thank you

These things are configurable through iContact config.
To get it working properly with TF3D you may have to use a TF3D editor.

Thank you.
All my problems was that iContact config did not appear on my PDA settings. But I have found it in iContact carper an run it directly and, now, it seems to work well.

Any way to sort contacts by first name?

I've got myself a new Vario, but I can't seem to get the contacts to sort by first name - is there any way to do this?
Sorry if this is a dumb question! I've been mucking about with it for ages!
Many thanks
Zakkz,
Welcome to the forum :wink:. Please read this introduction.
Here's a couple of links on your question.

yes it is possible,
even different ways to get this:
you can use a little freeware application 'File As First Last" that will be included in the default contacts applications. It allows you to save the contact by "firstname lastname" 'or even by company etc. The application can be found on pocketpcfreewares.com: http://www.pocketpcfreewares.com/en/index.php?soft=828
you could also change the contact settings on your desktop...within the Outlook contact, you can change the setting 'save contact as', there you can chose to use "firstname lastname"
yet another way to solve this problem is to use another application for your contacts. Pocket Informant is really very good! there you can easily chose to sort the contacts by "firstname lastname"...you can also chose to see the contact pictures in the list of contacts, which is really great I think!
and you've got many many other options and settings to change the calendar/contacts/tasks views...also a really great search function within Pocket Informant...try it for yourself...
CIAO!

what do you mean by groups? as a method to filter your list or just to sort the list.
I edited my contacts to put those topics(work, friends, kids friends, restaraunts, utilities, etc) in as "Company" and then sort by company
look at pocketCM for a freebie
Look at SBSH Pocketbreeze or SPB Diary for a retail app

By groups I mean similar to how WLM works - in that you have have several groups exanded or collapsed with contacts in each. SPB Diary looks like it has that option, but it only seems like it works from the today screen - rather than a seperate app like the default contact manager.
SBSH has a seperate contact manager "ContactBreeze"
OK, ready to be flamed!
Why not just use the standard Outlook Contact app? You can assign each person to one (or more) categories and then filter it to just show one particular category. Saves installing more software on your phone!

Pocket Informant contact grouping

Hi, i've been using pocket informant for quite sometime and love it.
however, i don't see any option to group contacts such as friends, family, work etc, like we have in even primitive nokia phones.
am i missing some setting or is there any other way to do it?
does pocket informant support this by any chance? it would be very useful in sending mass messages etc.
would appreciate any help
thanx
I'm using a Beta of PI but this is how I can group contacts:
Menu > Show Contact > Per Company
Mine is in Dutch so it might not be the correct translation
Contact Group

The answer is Yes.
Pocket Informant support grouping in contact.
Every time you insert new contact it should also ask (in detail) for group and also support grouping already exist in outlook (PC and PPC).
Try to search the option.

Just a suggestion, but did you know that WebIS has their own forum for PI? It is located here. You MIGHT want to register there, and drop a message in their forum. They seem pretty active in sorting out users' questions.
Good luck,
-pvs
The easiest way in WM to do this is assign a category for each contact (i.e. business, personal etc.). In PI, you can hit Menu, Category Filter, and choose only the filters you want to see at the time.

How to set new default applications for TouchFlow3d?

I'm using Pocket Informant as my PIM and i can't seem to set it as the default calendar, so that it opens what i click on the calendar event list in the Main Page of TF3D.
Also, i'm using Klaxon, a freeware alarm software; is there anyway to start that directly when clicking on the big clock from the Main Page?
Thanks !

How to add Sense contacts to quick links?

So the question is, I want to use a contacts button that uses the Sense contacts on my quick links rather than have a People's tab. But the problem is when I go through CHT's add/remove I only see the standard winmo contacts (Referring to the app not individual persons). I tried using Resco File Explorer search to see if I could find the .exe but couldn't figure out which one it could be.

I think you have to copy your contacts to the phone because it will not see your sim contacts. I just did what you where wanting to do and it worked...but when I first got my phone I copied all the contacts to the phone and hid the sim contacts and it shows all my contacts and keeps the pictures in the quicklinks icon. Hope this helps
Thanks for the reply, but once again I'm not looking for individual contacts. I'm looking to use the full sense contacts app.

I am confused you are trying to make a quicklink that will take you to the people tab?! You might just want to make the people tab be one of the first ones...not sure what the order you have you tabs in but you can for to start settings personalize homescreen tabs..and move it.
