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.

I need some suggestions on what applications is best to use for keeping track of birthdays?
It would also be nice that the applications auto sends a SMS message to the person is question
Birthday app
This is not really worth a new thread, but would belong in Q & A type thread like this.
But to answer your question, I would not use anything else but the HTC Sense contacts app called people. You have the choice of entering a birthday or an anniversary. You can set the reminder to between 1 minute and 3 weeks or so.
Sense also links to facebook which also has birthdays.

Sorry, didn't read part B.
It's possible to do this but would require some serious work by a programmer.
There are auto sms apps around.

You can set a reminder? I haven't seen that anywhere in the people app, please explain how!

^^^ What he said!!!
Hello All,
Really a quick question to all the HD2 users, I wanted to know if a thread I was reading is true, that the HD2 contacts app has the ability to assign a Call ringtone, as well as a SMS ringtone through the HTC contact app without the need for a 3rd party app?
And would it be too much trouble if someone could put a screenshot of that page up? I always wanted that feature without having to install a third party app, and if the HD2 does that, I might see if I can get that moved over to the TP2.
Thanx.

U just need to copy the contact to your HD2. Call Ringtones can be assigned, SMS I doubt so.
There is a thread in here where they were talking about it, and I asked there but no one answered. Anyone else can confirm there is no way to assign sms tones thru htc contacts?
Sorry if this is a stupid question but how do bring up all your contacts in a list when you are sending a text message? I wanted to browse and select a few people out of my contacts but all I could do was add them one by one by typing their contact name.
I would like to be able to browse my contacts and tick off who I want the message to go to.
I don't think you can in the stock messaging app. Try Handcent instead, has a plethora of other features as well.

Is there anyway of making this the default message app?
Come on Google surely we can have better handling of contacts when sending a text message.
I come away from Symbian and Nokia to find a simple feature like this on an advanced phone like the Nexus S is missing. (I could do it on my old Nokia for gods sake)
How can we report stuff like this?
Not sure if you are, but if you're talking about hero or evo, you can click the little person on the right of where you would type the individual names. From there, you can select all recipients or groups

This is where to file a report on complaints/issues. I recommend using it and sharing the link to the report you file so that people may star it; this'll bring as much attention to it to Google as possible. Hopefully then they'll add/fix the feature in future updates. http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/list?thanks=13414&ts=1293293994

Ok thank you I will do that.
Does anyone know how to make Handcent the default messaging App and stop new messages going into the Stock app?
Request Google to add a feature to insert multiple contacts while messaging
Hi All,
I have requested this enhancement at code.google.com, request you all to vote for this issue and bring it to the notice of Google developers!!

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

I've had he GS3 for a week now and I'm still using my GS2 because of the SMS in the call logs (plus other annoyances of touchwiz).
For the GS2 a mod was made to remove the SMS entries plus also display original time of sending, the ability to add more than 10 contacts and also disable the mms convert.
Is this possible for GS3?
Thanks in advance.
I'm sure once more phones get in the hands of developers we'll start to see more and more mods and custom firmware. Remember the phone hasn't even been out a week!

Yes, but you will see sms logs again when you go to logs next time.

It's true. Stock ROM doesn't save the selection. You have to select "All Calls" every time you return to the log after a given amount of time.
So is this mod available by now?
