Hello everybody,
Does anyone know how to change the way contacts are displayed in Qtek 202/XDAII.
I would like to have all my contacts shown as First Name, Last Name but the device always uses by default Last Name, First Name.
Is there a way of changing this?
Thanks for all your help.

Hi Magellano,
Thanks a lot for this tip.
This little piece of software is just great...
Thank God there are people who take their time solving other people small(or not so small...) problems.

Well I'm confused :shock:
Finally decided to add contacts to my activesync process. All went smooth except... there are about 3 contacts that the number is displayed as (13) 0073-5363 instead of (like the rest of them) 1300735363.
Outlook will not let me change it and nor will the mini :!: weird
Can't seem to find anything in the settings (like changing the name feature) so just wondering if anyone knows of a fix?
I'm totally stumped
it is because of your REGIONAL SETTINGS...
u can switch to other profile...go to SETTINGS...
try on ENGLISH (AUSTRALIA) should be able to view the numbers without any bracket or anything else...
very simple thing to do...try and see...
by the way, if that doesn't help,...then i'm sorry...
coz i'm a rookie also....
Cheers for the efforts efayes,
unfortunately my settings are already set to English and Australia.
anyway will keep playing
sorry paly, in that case, i can't help anymore...
god bless ur mini... :?
cheers!
Hello,
Is it possible to change the default filter in the contact list ?
By default this filter is "All"; I'd like to set it to "personal"
Thank you for your answers.
Regards,
been looking all over and cant find anything for this. it would be great though!
Edit a contact, go to the categories and change it to personal.
The personal will appear at the filters, if you edit another contact and change the category to work, work will also appear in the filter.
Try it out.
we know how to create filters...the problem is, when you open contacts, there is no filter, you see all the contacts. we want to have it so when you open contacts it is already filtered, say the last filter you picked or a default filter like personal or work. going to filter and changing it everytime i want to see a number is annoying
I have already put categories to all my contact.
The only thing I want is to see only personal contact when I open the contact list.
I searched in the registry but i found nothing ...
Nobody can help us ?
sadly i think nobody cares about this pain in the ass problem keep looking...
Yes, please, please, please.... Can anyone shed any light on this?
I too am frustrated that WM6 does not seem to have the ability to "save" the previous filter, or to let the user choose which filter to have as default (rather than having "all" as default, then requiring a manual filter each time)
It is REALLY frustrating having to trawl through ALL the contacts each and every time.
I have many contacts because I work in a few countries, and have categorized my contacts according to country. It would be super if I could "lock" the filter to a category (in my case country), so when I'm in a particular country, I can just view contacts from that country without trawling through all contacts from all countries.
Is there a fix for this? In WM6 itself? In reg? With a .cab? With a third-party software?
Can anyone help? It would be much appreciated.
I would like to have a default filter too... By the way, I am using WM5 (P3600/trinity), and it also shows everything when you get into the contacts. What I do for the time being is put the contacts I want to see everytime in the quick numbers list of the phone.
I know this thread's a couple of weeks old but I've been searching XDA for a solution. The weird thing is that Windows Mobile had the ability to retain a filter (at least until you rebooted) in Windows Mobile 2003. I had this feature on my Audiovox SMT5600 (HTC Tornado, I think) over 3 years ago.
Old thread I know...
Now that its getting close to 2009... anyone find a solution to this problem/annoyance?
Thansk
i am sick of this, i have wm6.1 and there is still same story, filter is returning to all mode...grrr
in lates version is still same thing ?
can anybody help please.....
is there still no solution?
i've cracked everybit till now and havent yet found how to set up a filter to choose only contacts with email addresses - but no success yet.
i recently imported my gmail contacts on my phone and want to send out an invite to all my friends - unfortunately unless i type a contact name, i wouldnt know which other contact exists there.
its getting be a pain..
any luck
Hi All
Sorry to bring this back, but is there a fix for this yet, i too find it a pain, would be much better if you could choose a default filter and not All.

I'm looking also for a sollution, but Microsoft it's sleeping and dont do nothing about this filter problem... all this years and wm it's the same ****...
Dear All,
This is first for me in ages, sorry if this is the wrong section.
I have a HTC HD2 T-mobile.
I want to send an sms to ALL my contacts in one go, rather than having to set up multiple groups of 100 members. As i update my contacts on a regular basis, it can be difficult to track who is "grouped" and "not grouped".
Is there a way to send text messages to all the contacts in one go?
Many thanks for all your help and support.
yes mate check out www.shubaroo.com although he sold his contact changer program to market place but still worth a shot mate
hmm, tried it mate, but no such luck sorry.
any more help please?
Hi everybody! I'm new from here!
(I'm Italian, if I do mistakes, please correct me!)
I'm developing Android apps since 3-4 days ago and I made 4-5 stupid apps, just to learn.
I don't have an Android Phone yet, anyway taking a look on the emulator AVD I noticed a thing that I'd like to change. It's about the Contacts app, the Contacts list view in particular.
I observed that for any contact in the list is possible to assign, in addition to name and surname, also a Nickname, useful for friends!
Despite this, in the options menu, I haven't seen a sorting and viewing method by nickname!
Is there a way to view, if setted, only the Nickname of the contact and, otherwise, Name and Surname?
If there's not, i would like to write a sort of add-on for the contact list that give the priority at the Nickname. Should be awesome also to set Nickname as a global default name to view, causing that will be displayed also during an incoming call.
How should I do? What do you think about? Suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Daniel
Ok, I'll edit the Android code directly.
Last question: how to make default an app instead of the default one?
Nice... Have you make any progress on that ?
