This is more of a general HTC sense question.
I have SayMyName the app installed and I would like it to speak nicknames rather than my friends' fullnames. However when I was looking to add nicknames to my contacts, I couldn't find a way on the FroyoStone v2 rom.
I've google'd and searched on XDA, but to no avai I found the solution.
Bump, since I still have not figured out a solution yet. o__o
If you get the version from the forums here (not the one from the marketplace) it has an option to replace 'name x' with ' name y'.

Ah, thanks! Still bugs me how there's no nickname field, but at least my problem is solved. =)

Is there any way to get it without having to flash to a new ROM?

Have you tried to use the search function?
/flame ON
I second that. You know, I think the mods should start telling people to use search in the e-mail that you get after they sign up
I agree that the search function should be used, but sometimes, the answer just can't be found using it. For instance, the thread I posted in the general unlocking forum ... I STILL can't find the answer in the Wiki, but I was blown off because "it's in the wiki". Yeah, they should search, but if they say they searched and couldn't find anything, and show they tried, then lay off.
/flame OFF
Did those of you who posted 'use the search' also use the search before typing 'use the search'? I must say, 'use the search' has been said here a lot and we all get sick of n00bs saying it.
Another hint for any n00bs who want to say 'use the search' for people asking for help would be that part of the reason the search function here sucks so bad is the extraneous messages, and I think we can consider 'use the search' type of messages to be extraneous.
As for the original question, I've never seen anything that answers your specific question asked or answered here before, so you have asked a good question. I don't have the answer but maybe someone can point you in the right direction, or you can find an appropriate thread to post your question to (recommended).

If you mean something that is available as it is for the wizard (Vario I) then no. At the moment I have a Vario I and a Vario II. On both of them I'm using iContacts (iPhonish way to scroll through your contacts). On the Vario I I'm running DrDot's ROM which has TouchFlo "the cube" (it's a prism actually) installed. Works like a charm!
For the Hermes (Vario II) there's no ROM yet if I'm not mistaken. There is however a "ButtonFlo" version of TouchFlo available. For now it only works via hardware input instead of using the touchscreen. It's just a .cab, you should be able to find it on this hermes section using the search function. the DrDot (not for the Hermes!) and iContacts can also be found on this forum. Good luck!

TouchFLO doesn't work properly at all on the HERMES, so you won't have to worry about flashing.
Oh yeah, next time search for your answer first. (read my signature regarding search for a bit more help)
Hi I sold my telstra touch hd and briefly went to google for a month and had the droid. It was a fair phone and had a great UI and i liked certain things such as google navigation the handcent sms, google voice. However certain deal breakers started to arise, I could not surf the internet and talk on the phone at the same time, there was no sirius radio application, the soft keyboard was terrible, the mms still needed work, i missed copy and paste, i didnt like all the "green" that was everywhere, no decent attractive music player. Anyhow I went promptly back to ATT and ordered the hd2 telstra. I know how to hard spl my phone put in roms etc, my questions are:
1. what is the most commonly used navigation software for winmo or what is the best to use with the hd2? I have been searching but can't seem to pick one, is there a cab around here? is it already bundled with hd2?
2. what roms are being offered that do no include htc messaging? I seem to have only found one. Does anyone know which chefs there are that offer this? i went on htc pedia and it seems like miri and dutty dont offer this removal yet for hd2.
3. is there a voice to text cab available much like google 2.1's voice to text?
4. i want to install facebook panel onto the hd2 and i think i found a thread that tells you how, or does anyone have a tutorial?
5. google just released a web app for iphone for their google voice, has anyone tried this web app on their hd2? or what is the best gv dialer to use at the moment?
6. is pandora now available for hd2?
i think thats it your help is most appreciated, please dont attack me if these are similar questions asked before, i did go over the forum and searched thank yu
is there anyone that can help

You can just remove it yourself. That's what I did.

I don't know if the "Oz" version comes with it but in the UK it comes with a trial version of Co-Pilot as part of the rom although its not that hard to add other apps instead of this...at the moment Igo,Tomtom,GarminXT and Navigon seem to be the most popular add ons (tried them all myself and TT's winning for me so far as I'm pretty familiar with it although I do like the "live" services you get with Garmin )

i read about that however if you remove it you lose the mms functionality and they havent figured out how to put that back, im looking for a rom where the chef got rid of it themselves and its just the pocket outlook sms with mms as well
can anyone else answer my questions?
Hello, I am using Kumars rom and just noticed it doesn't have this. Anyone know where I can get it? I have tried searching the forum but I must not be using the right terms as I am sure something like this has come up before, so I would like to say now sorry for the duplicate question....
wrong section.... but here you go

Hello,
I really like Android on HD2. Currently i use Subcraft 1.5 and i'm happy with it but there is a major disadvantage for me in Android.
I really need these reports for sms that tell me when a message is really delivered and i need a quick method to select multiple destinations.
Well the standard sms-app has the report-function but no good destination selection.
Handecent on the other hand is nearly perfect but doesn't has the report function.
Does anyone of you knows an app that has both? (Destination selection like handcent and reports like the original)
Handcent does have the delivery report option look under send options you should find it.

wrong forum
Yes you are right. I was sure to have looked at every possible option but somehow i missed it. Really strange.
Sorry for wrong Forum.
I think i should have a closer look in the future. Would have helped in both cases.
Thx anyway.
Hey All,
Not been around for ages since i had my o2xda many moons ago...
Had my hero a while and got the dredded memory leak and thought as im going to reflash is might as well mod and root it..
Runing the froyo 2.2 Se and it runs flaylessly
however theres a few features i miss from the stock 2.1
Smart dial - where you type the persons name in using the key pad and it finds the contact.. what dialer is this and how easy would it be to switch to this..
Facebook contact link - i liked having my contacts linked with their FB accounts.. is this due to the modded FB app on froyo 2.2 or is it a feature removed from the rom / contact app its self
and finally, whats the best way about building my own roms and so forth, i assume there some guides about on the forum but being a htc hero user only i have only been looking in this section
Many thanks
