Is there a way to go from the contacts app straight to the dialer without selecting a contact. In plain android the dialer and contacts are one app all connected by the tabs at the top which read Phone, Call Log, Contacts and Favorites. On the Vibrant contacts has the tabs contacts, groups, history and updates and the dialer app has Dialer, Call Log, Favorites and voice mail. I see the lower right icon for contacts in the dialer. I think this touchwiz redesign is a win for the stock android layout.
From the gallery there is an easy way to get to the camera but not vice versa. Can you go back to the gallery from the camera? I can get into the "quick view" but that is fairly weak when compared the full gallery.

if you enter the camera from the gallery, just hit back when you are done taking a picture, other than that, no there is no other easy way I dont believe

Is there any way of enlarging the image displayed when a call comes in? Mine is half a finger nail, and pointless. Doesn't seem to change no matter the size of the original photo.
Simply open up the contact picture on your desktop PC and resize the image
The WM5 will store the picture as a property of the contacts in 72x72 no matter the size of original picture.
yes picture seems to be stored in pim.vol (contact\appt info) the only way i found to get picture better is use a cropped rectangle picture vertically longer so the resulting image seems to come out about 75 x 120 - hope that helps
Appreciated. R
On my old Jam, it would allow you to pick what size you wanted the contact pic to be. Like you guys, the photo ID is tiny and useless. Is there a program to organize the photo ID's like on the JAM?
If you want gaint person pictures try Photo Contacts (std or pro) over at http://www.pocketx.net. Also has a neat cropping program so you can make contact pictures from existing photgraphs...
photo contacts pro is ugly... I would like the pic to fill the pop up window in an incoming call like IA Caller on 2003SE used to do Besides, photo contacts pro dows NOT get the pics you've allready assign in Contacts... you got to assign them allover again

You wouldn't want to use the pictures from contacts because they are tiny, 72x72, and when photo contacts pro would blow it up it would look absolutely horrible. Personally I enjoy the feature that PhotoContacts lets your crop any picture. And saving the pictures is even easier, all you do is name the file using the name of your contact and put it in the photoContacts folder.
"I would like the pic to fill the pop up window in an incoming call like IA Caller on 2003SE" when I try to do this with photo contacts pro, the text "Incoming Voice Call" keeps hidden under the pic the full screen option is just ugly.. with big ugly buttons...
Hi,
When you open up messages or email using the tabs on the HTC UI, it always opens to the last message/mail, is there any way you can chane it so that messages always opens up to "All messages", and email to "Inbox"?
Also can you change it so that when you go to photos and videos it goes straight to albums rather that showing the first photo?
Cheers
If you're with other droid handset you cold simply go to contact>menu>option but in i9000 i dont see anything like that.
Any advice?
You can assign a ring tone if the contact is a "Phone" type in other mean you made it!.
but if your contact is "SNS contacts" as you got it from the internet accounts like gmail,you can't assign a ring tone beside the normal one.
that's what i realized if I'm not wrong.

I know how you feel, cause as i was searching in my phone i realized that
half my contact synced!.
There is a way to do this, albeit very tedious. For every contact that you want to assign individual ringtone, you need to create a contact with the same name but in phone memory. During the creation, you can assign the ringtone to the phone contact. You just need to create with name and ringtone and nothing else. Your phone will link the 2 contacts together (this and the same-named gmail one), and viola, you have your individual ringtone.
I have tried other ways like ringdroid and ringtone manager and it doesn't work. Though the ringtone gets assigned to the gmail contact when I used these apps, the phone still use the default sound when they call. The above seems to be the only way that works.
Also if you noticed, your contact picture gets very blurred and pixelated (in the phone canvas during calls) when they are synced from gmail. The only way around this problem is also the above, ie assign pic to phone contact and link them.
Yes, you are right.
there's downSide for this like in the e-mail app, when you press the contact to select one, you will see all the contacts twice
Nothing is perfect
Not 100% sure, but guess you can change it without copy all into phone with the app. Zedge. That is a app for change wallpapers and ringtones, not use it for a while but worth look it upp.

Actually you won't. Your phone contact has nothing except the ringtone or pic. So in your email, phone or other apps only the contact with the relevant field populated will be shown
I'm coming from a blackberry and it would pull the photo from facebook and show it next to the text message. When I go to text with the Epic it will show the name of the person and the blue photo place holder area but not the photo of the contact, If I click the photo place holder and and pick to view the contact it shows that there is a photo associated with the contact. It just will not carry it over to the text screen.
Also, Facebook or Email(hotmail) will not come threw, I have to click them and manually get the new email/fb comments etc. or I will never see them. I have them set up to get new info every hour but nothing ever comes in on it's own.
ok I fix the pics in text, I open the facebook app and made it unsync with my phone, I then went to the contacts screen and went to "get friends' and pick facebook then check the ppl i have in my phonebook and it it work.
I also am getting emails now but still no FB notifications.
I have a tidy phonebook, so I only have about 60-70 contacts. I like it that way easy and fast to find the people I contact. However when I want to send a sms and select the phonebook it list about 300 contacts/items. Not only does it split all contacts into 1 line pr phonenr/email but it also display my email contacts etc.
How can I change this ? The settings button does nothing :crying:
I want it to show only my contacts with mobile phone nr.
