hi all good people,
I would like to have all my "People" contacts details from phone on quick links. Is it possible to do it and have them all instead of my favourite 15.
I've searched on forum but couldn't find anything. I'm sure that someone already asked that but I just can't find the answer.
Thank you

Can you explain what you mean a little more?
It sounds like you're simply trying to a contact as a quicklink, but I doubt that because if you've added programs then you already know how to do this.
You want ALL your phone contacts on your home page quick links? or People quick links?
I don't think that's possible. It's called favourites for a reason!

Go to add a quicklink, scroll down the programs list and find the one called "People". It's the "All People" page from the people tab.

And I still got my favourite 15. I dont want to add People (favourite) icon on today screen, I just want to change and everytime when I tap on Today I would like to open my all contacts list (is a little bit more in my contacts than 15)
I think MrMagicMushroom was right, It's called favourites for a reason
Am I missing something here? Do you want your contacts as a quicklink? If so, click on an empty quicklink>program and select contacts
problem solved
Thx all

Is it possible to remap the buttons on the htc home plugin (meaning the sms and email buttons located below the clock)?
I would like to be able to open PocketCM Contacts when I press on the sms button.
Would this be possible?
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks,
htctoucher
Have you tried to search??
yeah i have tried, just I could not find anything..
I searched "remap htc touch home buttons" and every variant of these words I could think of on XDA and Google.. couldn't find any answers
have any ideas?
or did I miss a thread?
thanks
Martinhdk, I'd say at least answer the question for him. Simple Answer: you can't.
oh well.. thanks for the answer haha

As in it's impossible to get the buttons to map to different things, or it is not really feasible (as in, it would take an enormous amount of work and programming skill)?
I was just wondering about this the other day. I have HTC Touch and I noticed that when I click on the mail button it brings me to my MMS inbox, however I would like it to bring me to my exchange inbox. Is this something which just isn't supported by HTC Touch, or is it something that no one (to your knowledge) has managed to code yet?

Hell, nothing is impossible. Look at what Slither has done with the cube! However, the HOME plugin is hardcoded to link to the things it does. There aren't any registry settings to mess with unfortunately.

Callius:
When you click on the mail button, you should have a menu button on the bottom. Click on it and goto tools then options.
This screen allows you to navigate to the box you wish. There is also a box at the bottom that you can check which says : "display account picker when opening message" this lets you choose from all your accounts.
If you want it to only go to the exchange account, you have to make sure that asterick * is next to that account if not you need to change in the settings and then when you click on mail it will go to that box!
Hope this helps!

How do I get the * , to display next to the account I want. I seem to be missing something

Just de-select the box for display account picker.
Then while on the same screen, touch the account you want to have come up when you press the email icon and that should do the trick!
I can't get it to pick up my email account automatically it just keeps constantly going into SMS instead of email when I hit the email button on the HTC Home. Very annoying! Any ideas?
Hi everyone,
Is there any chance to get the contact (people) tab from sense 2.5 in sense 2.1. I think the picture contacts are much more useable than scrolling through the 3d contacts (although it looks very nice).
I searched the forum and only found the old 15-Tabs extension (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2954955&postcount=1) for the touch HD which enables to have the favorite contacts list as main touchflo tab. Has anyone already tried this on the topaz?.
-> Or is there any other touchflo-compatible solution to get picture contacts? (flashing to a custom rom is the last choice)
greetinx,
gordon
I agree, the 2.5 contacts is way more useable than the 2.1 version. Would be nice if somebody could enable this.
I agree some features of 2.5 are better than in 2.1 And as it seems we don't get an update. Something I would also like to see in 2.1 is the calendar view and the way new appointments are made in 2.5.
What annoys me about the 2.5 contact screen is I can only seem to add a favourite to call OR message that person. Not both. I have friends that I either call or message all the time.
I would prefer if when I clicked on a favourite it brought up their contact page, where I can call, message, email them etc.

You can do that by clicking on the name underneath the picture rather than the picture itself. this brings up the contact page with all the options for that contact.

You can.
Click on the name, not the picture. If you click on the picture it will automatically bring up the first interaction you had with that contact if you set up as below.
To get your favourite contacts to come up without having to choose phone or text is a bit long winded but can be done.
Firstly do not use add favorite. Instead you have to go All people, select the person you want to add > takes you to their contact card. Edit Contact > More > click on Category tick HTC Favorite.
edit I see [email protected] has beaten me to the first part.
Thanks guys
I would also love this. 2.5 just isn't smooth enough for my liking so I'm back to 2.1 but i really did love the new home screen and contact tab
I want the same thing - 2.5 people tab in 2.1.
Then I was asking this question on other Thread of this forum, they usually tell me, it is an impossible - course it is an 2.5 part and that's it. But, as I understand 2.5 and 2.1 is an program? so it is possible to modify them - the question is how hard it could be. I'm not an programmer or software engineer, so I don't know the answer. But I'm sure, if it were easy, it could have been done already.
My be it is easy to wait, until 2.5 will be more stable and smoother.
there are news??
I would love if we could do this.
I would like it the other way round.. 2.1's contact tab in manilla 2.5
I think it's much better to choose your friend with the slider on the right and have the buttos under his picture where u can choose between SMS, Mail, call Home or call Phone etc. the new contact tab in 2.5 just allows you to choose the type of contact (sms, mail,..) once when you add the contact to your favorites.

i too would prefer it the other way around. i think the slider is really cool and more touchflowy than the pictures just sitting there with no animations.
+ there are more options such as changing the picture of a contact. i hope there is a way to get the contact tabs for each that way both parties are happy.
i would love to get this done. The 2.5 contact grid is much more usefull than the 2.1 one.
Anyone got it??

For for a REALLY easy way to do it. When you are at the contacts tab and click a back to add one. It takes you to your contact list, and then you choose a contact. Now at the screen where it has you choose a number, above it all it states "view contact card", click on that and the deafult action when clicking on your fav contact in the contact tab is opening the contact card.
Back to the original issue on hand, would it be possible to get the contacts tab for Manila 2.5 into Manila 2.1? That would be just great for me...
Yeah I want the 2.5 contacts tab on 2.1. And I want the 2.5 calender too. I guess what I really want is 2.5 to be as smooth as 2.1...
so, anybody have any updates? Is it even remotely possible? If anybody out there has any idea, please let me know. At least I can turn off the light at the end of the tunnel, save some electricity...
On my side, I want Contact tab from 2.1 in 2.5, is it possible ?
Official ROM update
Or you can just install the official ROM with 2.5 for the Topaz.
You can find it here: http://htcpedia.com/soft/htc-topaz-rom.html
I run it also, it runs good!
GL!
I'm wondering if anybody knows if there's any way to get a "mark all as read" option from the TF3D screen on my mail and sms tabs. I have downloaded the "safe inbox extender" cab, which is better than before, but it would really be ideal if you could add an option in the OUTER tf3d tab so one doesn't actually have to go into the accounts page at all.
install this cab

sorry I didn't read the rest of your post. but the answer to your post is NO
I'm wondering why this isn't available myself. The inbox extender is great, don't get me wrong but being able to mark all read from the TF3D would be amazing!
Bump!
Why isn't this available? Also, why can't you reply, reply to all, forward etc... from the email tab (like you can in SMS tab)?
Hi guys,
Just noticed how the Nexus, when i go to messaging and compose a new SMS i cannot view my contact list and select someone. Instead i need to type the first 2 letters of their name and they appear in a dropdown box. Is their no way to bring up the contact list and choose someone?
Thankyou
Download "Handcent SMS" from the market
sorry not what i asked. Just would like to know if it is possible or not as i cannot find any results via google.

Yeah, I don't understand the logic there either. Although you could just start in your contacts list and select the text message link from there. Still not as intuitive.
Find the person first, then type the message?

Thanks so i guess its not only me that finds this simply problem annoying. I hate it when i make a mistake accidentally hitting the wrong key and need to delete. Would be such a simple process just adding via contact list.

Well... yeah. Go to your contact list, find the person, and you have a centralized screen where you can choose, inter alia, to call, sms, or email them.
add contacts to sms
Assign your contacts a label i.e. home, mobile etc..
This will solve your problem.
You might have to do this individually for each contact.
I'm satisified with the Messaging Hotfix published by HTC in 14 Jan 2010.
In the Conversation Mode, i can see the photo whom i'm taking to. (from contact)
However, i can only see "Me:...." with "anonymous photo" for those i replied...
I want to know if it's possible to replace the "Me" with my own name and also the "anonymous photo" with those i chosen?
I know it's not essential but...just for fun maybe...
regards...

Go to your contacts and fill in your details / pic for the "me" contact - That should do it i think!
(might be called something different, I don't have my phone on me atm - but it's the only contact in the list that has the arrow icon thingy).

But i've tried before. I have added my phone no. and created a contact item with my own photo and name(or any others). But nothing changed in the conversation mode

You don't create a contact with your details. The very top one in the list of all people should be one called "Me". You put your details in there. Mine's linked to my facebook info so it shows my facebook profile picture next to me in conversations.

But can I also change the word "Me"...
Thank for yr help.....
Go to the people tab and click more, then you will see all your contacts. The top one is called "me". Add your detail there and this will show up in the sms conversations.
