a few questions - HD2 General

hi guys
i have a few questions about the HD2
1) can i assign different ringtones to different contact groups
( i did not see it in the group options )
2) i tried to send a file to a friend using bluetooth , in the file options there was a send... option but it didn't specify send with BT , mms , email
and when i tried to send the file it said it was to big ( BT is not supposed to have size transfer limit )
i think thats it for now
thanks in advance

hey for the 2nd one i could help
press and hold the file you want to send and it should come up with a pop-up menu which should have send file vie bluetooth at the top (or something like that)
i recently sent over a 18mb file and it worked fine.

can anyone answer the first question ?

anyone ?
just remembered something
i installed finger keyboard but if i do a soft reset the keboard returns to the default , is there a way to make the finger keyboard be the default
also is there a better keyboard than the finger ?

Use SIP Change to make the keyboard permanent.
There's also touch pal but i don't like it. Finger keyboard is pretty good.

Hiya...firstly for the Group Setup:
1. Select "Phone" text link at bottom of main page.
2. Select "All People" text link at bottom of phone.
3. Slide the bottom task bar across to the third icon, the "group" icon.
4. Select the "New" text from the option box to create a Group Name.
5. Select the "Add" button and select all the people you want to assign to group.
6. Select "Done" at bottom of phone.
7. Select "Done" for the second time.
You can repeat this for all the groups you want to set up.
For the ringtones:
1. You can either go to "All People" list...as above.
2. Select the persons namefrom the Group you have set up.
3. Select "Edit Contact" on screen.
4. Scroll down the page...you can now assign a "ringtone" from the option box.
And finally, to transfer your contacts from your SIM:
1. Select "Phone" text link at bottom of main page.
2. Select "All People" text link at bottom of phone.
3. Select the "Menu" text link at bottom right of phone.
4. Select the "Import SIM Contacts" from the pop up menu.
Now have a cold drink and sit back and admire what you have just done!

Seems like you are assigning a ringtone to the contact, not to the group. I can't find a way to do it for a whole group.

Is it possible to create a new menu option?

hello
i have a 8125 and was hoping one of you unbelievably smart techies out there could whip something up for me or explain if it cannot be done. i was hoping to add a "Select all" option in the "Menu" just below "Delete" in my e-mail interface. basically if i have say 10 -20 e-mails i want to select rather than using the stylus and selecting all of them manually i would like to press "Menu" "Select all" then "Delete" can this be done??
any help would be greatly appreciated. also on another off topic note, when i use the "Meaasging" button at the top of the phone (the actual external hard mapped button) my phone switches to the mail accounts (i can see the name in the top menu) however there is no display the today screen is still visible where the e-mails should be. i have to close the mail and reopen it with the messaging shortcut from the start menu then all displays fine. i had a similar problem with the Pictures viewer and accidentaly came across a thread to rename 2 dll files, i did and that is now working. does anybody know how to fix this display issue with the messaging button
thanks again

E-mail multi-select not working... :-(

Hi there people!!.... Wow, it's been a while since I last posted something here!!
I have just received my new (and quite beautifull) HD2.... it works just great.. but there's one tiny problem, maybe someone can help me
After downloading my mail to the device I tried to delete all the messages in one folder, but I just can delete one by one... Everytime I try to drag to select several mail the HD2 keeps scrolling up or down and I can only select one message at a time... Is there any way for doing this??? Can't believe this silly programming mistake.
If I can't do multi-selection on my e-mail then the e-mail on the HD2 is useless crap... HELP PLEASE!!!
I think there is a select message option in the menu at right bottom of the inbox screen.

That would have been the most intelligent idea for HTC... but nope... there isn't such option...
My logic tells me to go to the classic Edit menu and click Select All... but it does not exists...
Any other solution?? can't believe I'm the only one with this problem!
thanks!!!!
Open the inbox and go to Menu. You'll have to scroll down to see it, but there is a Select Messages option. You want the "Several" option in there.
You can then select multiple messages.

Yep... is was as easy as that... Thank you both for the tip!
I'm still not used to scrolling down on menus that don't have scroll bars... I think I must be missing a lot of configs because of this!!
Cheers Mates!
theres a very faint scrollbar on the white pop-up menus, a little hard to see sometimes!

Hey... I think what you need is... a direct dial/ direct message for a contact
So here's how you do it
1. Longpress on the home screen
2. Select Shortcuts
3. Select Direct Dial or Direct Message - depending on what you want to do
4. Select the contact
and voila - you're done
What I have is a folder on my homescreen with direct dials of all the contacts I call frequently.. its very useful

5 Favorite People on Edge Screen Options

Hi, does anyone know how to change back the option for a contact where I accidentally put someone instead of a phone number for their text option, I placed an email address for one of the 5 favorite people on the edge screen options. Then I chose for all times instead of one time only which would be able to ask again next time. I dont see any place where I can reset the default option. Now can I click on that person to send a text, it automatically populates an email address instead of a phone #.
Thanks,
Bill
Do you mean if you go in to Contacts, select the contact in question. Tap "More" top right and choose "Mark Default". This allows you to choose the default number.
Thanks Chris, that did the trick
