Good morning.
Could I please get some advice about settings or versions of smartdialing.
I am lucky enough to have a Diamond and an X1.
Smartdialing on both decives brings up the desired contact, the differences I have noticed is that on the Diamond when you tap the contact it immediately rings the last number dialed for that contact, be it home, work, mobile etc.
On the X1 tapping the contact opens the contact details allowing selection of what function to carry out. ie. the normal WM screen, call home, work, send text etc. which I prefer.
Is there anyway to change the settings to get the Diamond to react in the same way as the X1?
Many thanks in advance for any assistance.

YES that is also what I need, I used a Wizard and Tytn II and both did the same but not with the Diamond and I what that back!!
Is there someone who knows a solution for this??
Sorry but I searched and cannot find answers-
A few questions:
I have tmobile in the usa (oregon) with a black sony x1i
1) Issue- I am coming from a Sam BJ2- I use exch server for email, contacts, etc. When I set up my X1 with my exchange info- everything worked nicely-
But some of my contacts that are smsing me do not show their contact name only the #. I think it might be cause some have the 1 (XXX) and some dont have the 1. How can I fix this as I have 600 contacts?? Please help
I noticed that the phone wont dial a # without the 1 in front of it-
2) on my BJ2 - when I wanted to call, email or text someone- I would start typing their name and I would choose from the list as I am typing. I cant do that with the xperia- typing doesnt do anything- How do people quickly search for a contact???
3) Is there a seperate box that shows on the home screen when SMS's come in as opposed to 1 message box with a red #? I would like to see if its an email or sms.
Thx in advance
In regards to 1, have you tried selecting "United States" in the regional settings?
Yes I set it to USA english-
Also where is the battery indicator on the home screen??
Thx
1) thats a calling ID setting... there is nothing you can do about it except you go change the contact number and add or remove the 1 before the area code... the phone is just trying to match whatever the caller ID is to your contact list... if it is not the same it wont display it.... I have had that problem on my BJ2 too and I had to change all those contacts as well
2) I can do so by sliding out the keyboard and start typing the name and call... not sure if you are doing the samething or you are trying to get the soft keyboard out to type...
3) I have a sms or email notification showing up on the bottom of the screen whenever I receive them.... otherwise the sonyericsson panel have a option to display them I think
Hey you guys and ladys,
I have a nother thing with the call history on the htc touch hd. ive installed spb phone suite 4 (thinks it does the same as phonealarm) i like it verry much only nog it also chance the call history to a picture call history, nothing wrong with that, but it is ugly (my opinion) so my question, is there a way (or a tweak) to get the original touch hd call history list back? (i love that one) oja, and i still want to use the phone suite, anyone?
thanks in advantage.
Dee
go to phone suite options, uncheck "dialer extensions"
Not to start a new thread.... I'm going to post my question here...
Do you know how we can show "call duration" time in call history? Right now it's only showing the date (and time if it's today) of all calls, but not the duration.
The same thing I missed in the main phone dialer screen. In the old dialer (from original touch with manila 2d dialer) when you or the other party ends a call - it is showing for a few seconds the "last call duration". Here it just logs the last call without any timers.
The only way to find out call duration times is to open all calls for a specific contact, which is highly uncomfortable....
Strange question - but I knew that there was probably very little chance for an answer except by those most expeienced with ROM flashing ...
I currently have Leo's ROM and have now noticed that when I get a text message with a phone number in the body of the text (my answering service uses this method to page me now) that something has changed.
If I get a message to call " please call 123 345 7777" there is no way to just touch the group of numbers and have the phone call 1233457777 - basically with one touch dialing. The system seems to divide things up to 3 different groups - 123 or 345 or 7777.
It does seem to still work if the text comes in this format - " please call 123-345-7777" , but I can't be assured that the many different operators will send via that format.
Since I have only had this problem since switching to my Leo HD2 and using a particular ROM I wondered if it might be a registry setting and if anyone else had noticed this ??
Hi guys, I've just moved over from iphone so still finding my feet with android.
For the most part android is far superior but the contact side of things is still bugging me. This is what I want to be able to do:
1. Have my call log as calls only, not texts. I know you can change this to view calls received, dialled etc, but it soons defaults back and shows everything. I just want my log to have dialled and received and nothing else? I'm sure i've read somewhere on the net that this was possible on the SGS through a hack??
2. I want to set up a favourites list of say best mate, gf, work etc and just be able to press their name and it dials there number, not opens another window that shows history, text option, dial option video call option, i.e. just direct dial. I also would like this to be the first screen that opens when I press my phone icon on the dock??
I've set my gf up on my desktop as a direct dial shortcut, but I don't want to be doing that for everyone. I've got a load of contacts but maybe only dial 10 at most on a regular basis.
are there any hacks or thrid party dialers that do this??
Cheers
Lee

I can help you with #2. Just swipe right on your favorite and you call that favorite immediately. Swipe left to immediately send a message.

hmmm, can't say i can see a way around No.1, other than using a new dialer/contacts app such as Go Contacts or Dialer One etc..
must say, i actually quite like the comprehensive log, coming from Sense and Stock roms with calls only, i like having it all in one place...
Dialer One would be my choice, but only as i used it on CM7 on my Hero for its smart dial feature... can't comment on Go Contacts
hope this helps
Dickie
I use loads off texts a day so within 10 mins of dialling someone their details are long gone
I'll check out Go Contacts and Dialer One though, thanks for the recommendations
This is a Samsung thing, regular android does not put texts with the call log. I don't think I'd like them to be combined like that.
it is the right thing to do

I like them combined. There again, there could be an option to control it.
Go Contacts is just the ticket
Thanks guys, much better now
