Really, the best way is to go the the T-Mo website and update your Fav's there. The MyFavs app on the phone is just a contact dialer that syncs with your Favs on the website. Whomever your Favs are are still free calls even if you don't use the My Favs app.

Features:
*Dials numbers through your Google Voice account and has them ring back to your phone. With this app, your phone will automatically pick up the call once it comes in without your phone ringing.
*Sends and receives SMS messages through your Google Voice account with DATA.
*Integrates with your Windows Mobile contacts, so that you may dial to your contacts that already exist on your phone.
New Features from website download:

This application works on Windows Mobile 6+ Professional with NETCF3.5 and above phones. The regular version should fit all QVGA-VGA phones, and the square version is pretty self explanatory.

Awesome app - waiting to fix my phone so I can try this latest version. Really love the sms abilities!

m_drunk - my hero.
I will post some feedback as soon as possible.
Currently having some fun with it.

It's as safe as anything else you do on the internet. Like I said, I'm not logging any credential info....it just gets passed to to google with SSL.
I noticed a bug, when you manualy dial from the dial pad you can't dial the number 0, when you dial 0 it comes up as a 9

Fixed and re-posted the new cab.
Nice stuff.
My specs are:
Omnia running 6.5 - WQVGA screen. I know some of these problems might be related to that.
First, I love the fact that you now have that SMS history. It kicks serious ass - I can use my keyboard with xt9 in it no problem or shapewriter - so great work.
However, I do have a problem when it comes to loading my contacts... for some reason nothing shows up. Before I was able to. So, now if I need to send an SMS I have to go into voicemail find the contact and then sms there.
How is the notification system going?
Is there a way to integrate the phone contacts with one touch - or visa versa?
Anyhow, Kudos... great work.
Looking forward to future releases.
Relay address?
I would like to use this with my T-Mobile ToGo prepaid service. However, their data service is restricted to certain sites. There is a workaround but I need the IP address of your relay in order to make the mod on my phone. Oh, and I need to be able to change the URL of the relay to something with tmobile in the URL. Basically what I would do is create a dyndns entry of tmobile.dyndns.org (or something) and then link that to your relay IP address.
Is there a way to change the relay URL in the application and can I get the IP address of your relay? I think it may work.
Thanks

You know what, I actually have a problem similar that I just noticed. It only loads mine up to the P's. Before it was a data source, and now it's enumerated. I'll work on that....don't know what it going on just yet.

Huh? What notification system? Do you want one? Like when a new SMS comes in, you want it to tell you?

Not really. What I had before, and what I hope to have again in a little bit is as close as I could get it. I did improve how the contacts worked, but it looks like I broke it too. Hopefully, I'll have the fix out later tonight.

The notification system would make this awesome. I thought that you might have been working on one because I think you said that the other thread. Anyhow, it would be great if a notification system could be implemented somehow.
And I guess as far as features go - I know that you were not paying too much attention to aesthetics, but perhaps you could have a button on the dialpad for the SMS history, contact list, or favorites, or something... that way the dialer would just be the main dialer I always use. This all piggy backing on the hopes that you get the contact list to work.
Anyhow, heres to future builds
::cheers::

I was just messing with you. The notification is already there, I just commented out the messagebox that tells you there's a new message. I did that because I'm trying to figure out how to send the event to the phone instead of a message box, because the MB won't pop up if the app is running in the backround.

if you don't put in any numbers and hit either the dial button or the sms button, the former takes you to your contacts(and I think I know what's wrong with it, fixing it now), and the latter takes you to SMS history.

Not a problem anymore. Fixed the contacts and a couple of other things and posted a new cab.
Great progress on this app (and in such a short time!). Finally just got the latest version installed and am playing around with it.
The buttons appear to be too big - I would guess I can see about a quarter of the icon I'm supposed to be able to see for ech of the numbers and the dial and SMS buttons down below.
When I click over to SMS history I get a "could not retrieve messages." error.
Dialing gets me a "web exception" error.
Im gonna keep playing with it though.
whoops. new build. should work now.
fixed the smsmessage history "error parsing message xml" error. new build posted. also fixed a small contacts error.
Is there a way to add an auto update function?
The screen does not fit properly in SE Xperia X1a. Can you make a version for WVGA?

waiting on qvga. would be happy to test.

new message/select multiple contacts

so i switched to a rom without htc messaging and everything is great but the only thing i miss from that is when you hit new message and add recipient you could go into the list and check off people to send to.
in standard you have to add each person individually.
anyone know of an app to match that functionality? it was real handy
yea i know one, its called HTC messaging!
if htc messaging could handle lots of texts n not make me have to empty my inbox daily then id use it
hehe.can't complain myself, never had any problems, but I rarely get more than 30 or so txts built up before I hard reset.
yea for those of us doin like 200 a day its just about the worst software ever. got to the point of soft resets hourly
Um I dont know if this is the same thing you guys are talking about, but when you want to type a new msg and you have the box to type in names, to the right you should have a pawn icon, if you tab the pawn icon you can select multiple contacts and dont have to type their names to auto complete.
Hope that was what you guys were talking about.
the OP isnt using the htc messaging which is what you are using and refering to
found a program called group sms in omarket which is rather old but works.
only issue is when you select a group to send to everyone in the group is pre checked so i have to untick everyone i dont want it sent to. if there was an option for that itd be perfect

How to have own ringtones for each contact

I got the samsung today n I'm loving it but I cant put a specific ringtone for each contact does anyone know how to do that?i knew how to do it on the g1 but this phone is different....btw love the swype on the vibrant
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
for some reason it was overlooked fortunately there's an app for that
ringo
plus the lite version includes assigning tones to SMS from contacts as well
this is how you do it
this was not over looked!!! all you have to do is for the contacts that you want to have custom ringtones for.. you create another contact for them on the phone memory and then you tie that one to the google one. with the contact that is saved on the phone memory you then now set a custom ringtone for them....
enjoy!!!

Let us be very clear on this. What you describe is a workaround. The basic functionality has been overlooked or neglected.
If you do the workaround you describe your phone contacts do not get backed up to your Google contact list. This is, IMO, unacceptable.
yeah it's stupid.... however using an app like ringroid works.
about the contact ringtones
Hello everybody, im knew to Android, and i was puzzled also about the personal contact ringtones. i just tryed the ringo app and it works perfectly no issues, thanks guys for the info.
Thanks for the thread, I've been struggling with this for about 2 hours on my Galaxy S. So far this is the only issue I've found with the phone. Anybody want to buy a G1?
Ringdroid works too.

[Q] Account pictures and data.

It's on the tip of my tongue, but I forgot how to make the phone recognize who I am. I'm in my contacts list, but how do I make the phone realize that that contact is me? For example, in Messaging, the threads boil down to who you're talking to, ex, Allison would be who I am texting, but for my bubble it says 'me', and a place for a picture. I think if I made the phone realize that I was that contact in my phone, pictures would appear where they need be and certain info relating to me would also appear when needed. Make sense? So basically I just want to know how to make that possible (I know how I just forgot and it's bugging me).

Just add yourself to your contacts with your full name, phone number, e-mail address, and picture. This should do it.

Well that's the thing... I am in there as myself, picture, email, phone number, emails, address, everything essentially, but for some reason my picture doesn't show up in the messaging app, and I don't think my phone knows it's me.
But it has to know it's me, because of my account sign in through google... Hmmm.
Click..menu..settings..about phone
I bet your "my phone number" shows as unknown?
Need to put your SIM into another mobile that allows you to edit the number.

Oh lawdy that was it. Thank you so much man! I had to call AT&T to unlock the old MOTORAZR that has that capability. haha

contacts>menu>display options>only contacts with phones.
i kid you not i dont have that option. when i hit contacts on the launcher i simply dont have menu as a choice. instead all i have is add contact search display group manage accounts settings and more which takes me to share vcards and import/ export.
what is going on? what am i not getting here?

Menu as in the menu button. Bottom left corner of your phone. Anyways it might be slightly different on stock rom as I'm on cm7. I know its there though, you will find it I have faith in you.

cheers mate for your faith but it is misplaced. there simply isnt an aption on this phone i have. guess it is just one more reason to get it rooted unlocked and flashed with cm7.
oh by the way on a completely separate note... i did read in another thread that someone else did exactly the same thing i did and stick there thumb in the speaker grill thinking it was the power button!!!! lmao!!! what bad design. it is my only gripe with this phone the shocking build quality and it is even more surprising cos this was meant to be there flagship model at the time.
I don't have that option either, so you aren't the only one. I am on stock froyo, on Atrix in Europe
