"Call" logs - Epic 4G General

I completely despise the fact that Froyo builds include text messages and even voicemail messages in the Phone app logs. To top it off, you can select to view by dialed, received, and missed calls, but not all calls excluding messages, as it was before. Has anyone looked into doing something about it?

I also abhor this. It is absurdly redundant.

Use the phone from a captivate 2.2 build. Its not on ours.

Yes! This bugs the crap out of me too.
Mammon posted a fix in the Development Section and included it in his latest Froyo Rom. Haven't tried it myself yet though.

Here is a fix. I haven't tried it yet.

Calendar issues

I've noticed this problem on my wife's non rooted stock 2.2 inc and when I was running Virtuous 2.5: Google calendar seems to be broken by htc in froyo. I can create events but when I go to edit them it very briefly looks normal and then all editable options disappear like it becomes read-only.
Does Virtuous 2.6 have a fix, or is there anything else I can try? If not might load up Ruby on her phone so she can at least use her calendar as designed. I imagine it'll be quite a while before HTC provides a fix, seeing as how they are still rolling out froyo.

I saw that a workaround is to start with the agenda view and do a long-press to edit, so it's not the end of the world. Still curious if there are any fixes but it's not worth going thru a new rom for.

There's another bug that's even more annoying. When you edit an event, the description field gets overwritten by the where field. Does

I like the edit bug that changes your date on you to the following day, yay missed appointment.

I haven't had any issues. Then again I am not using the HTC calendar. I'm using a couple apps from the market- Agenda, Jorte, Calendar Pad all seem ok.

How to call or text someone quickly...

Not sure if everybody knows this..
you can call contacts by swiping to the right on the name in your text message app or in your contact app. To text someone just swipe to the left...thought this is pretty cool and wanted to share...
Goood find I never knew... Any other apps we can dio this in?

This was one of those features that was touted during a demonstration at CTIA 2010 (back in March when the Galaxy S phones were announced) and was apparently never really mentioned afterwards.
That's useful. I always went the long way lol.

Even faster is to dedicate a page in your launcher to quick dial shortcuts. Single press.

Syndicate's Shuriken ROM - E-Mail & SMS issue

I'm running Syndicate's Shuriken ROM, and for the most part, I like it. I've found two problems since I've been using it, which may or may not be ROM related. One is in e-mail, any time I've tried to attach a file, the e-mail app FC's. Not really a huge deal, since I don't often attach things on my Epic, but it's there. The other I noticed this weekend, is incoming SMS message timestamps are an hour ahead of actual time, outbound have normal timestamps, so messages aren't threaded properly.
I started with a bone-stock, freshly Odin'd DI18 ROM, and installed the Shuriken ROM, and from there, installed my various apps and settings either from the Market or from apk files. The ONLY other thing I've done to it was installed a battery gauge "theme" that changed how the battery gauge displayed.
Has anyone seen these issues, and/or have any thoughts on a fix?
Should probably post this in the thread for the rom instead of creating a whole new thread for this

[Q] Missing Contacts Pictures After Sync in SMS (EB01)

Has anyone else noticed, or IS anyone else experiencing this? And is there a way to fix it? The synced pictures are fine everywhere else, however simply MISSING in the SMS threads. Thank you.
Same here

Are you using superclean? I found that I had to add back in SNS in order to get pictures back in SMS threads.

I can't seem to fix it no matter what I do, I've completely removed Facebook, as it is my main sync and the one that the pictures come from, reinstalled, re-synced a million times, still no SMS pictures in the text messaging threads. I do not get it.
Adrynalyn just posted version 2.2 of Superclean which he states has SNS added back in. I have found that the syncing of the Facebook app contacts does not work completely. In order to get facebook contact pictures, you need the integrated Facebook SNS. Again, it looks like with 2.2 that it is added back in so I suggest you download and install it and see if this fixes your problem.

That is odd, to both of you. Due to other issues, I went from scratch up to EB01 on SuperClean 2.2, and the contacts sync issues were gone. Try starting from scratch, the all-in-one fix file (DI01). That is the only thing I can recommend.
Hmmmmm. Not sure what to tell you guys except to try a complete data wipe and another Rom flash. You guys are using the integrated Facebook SNS and NOT the Facebook app for contacts syncing, right?
Sent from my SCH-I500 using Tapatalk
That did the trick (not the wipe). Had to use the one from the integrated section. I must have not been paying attention when adding the facebook account and selected the one from the 'more accounts' section instead.

[Q] EL30 vs MTD or just wait

So I've stuck with BML through several different Roms. I originally rooted because I needed working gps and wifi. I had decided I was going to switch to MTD this weekend but now I'm not so sure. Any suggestions?
If I was in ur spot I would probably just wait and see what happens with el30
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
There's no gps fix in el30 as far as I've seen... just make the move eventually they will have el30 mtd roms within a week or two
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
cm7 or miui ROM is best for me... Im using miui and not switching til cm9 gets here.. try miui rom and u will see wat i mean..LOL
its different with more feature than TW roms has to offer..
Hmmm..I guess I would wait for your favorite ROM to do all the upgrades, grab the modem and then convert to MTD. Should be about a week.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
I switched to MTD so I could run CM7, as well as my FAV ROM that I converted over, but besides the loads of extra space, it hasn't been much different.
If you want to try CM7, backup your fav BML setups, convert them to MTD, install CM7, the switch as you like.
But unless you are going to checkout CM7, I would stick with BML until EL30 ROMs come out, then jump.
This Epic post as brought to you via Tapatalk
sounds like a good time to try CM7 or MIUI.US. ran cm7 for a week, switched to MIUI.US for a week.
Most likely the devs will come out with a good MTD rom do you don't have to odin back to RFS to go back to EL30.

Id say just switch to mtd, EL30 ROMs will be kind of cripple or in beta for a bit since mods have to be ported and debugged

After using CM7 there's just no going back... tons of features. Love the ability to revoke permissions from apps.

This +9000. I am readying an MTD of EI22 for my rom, its out to testers to make sure nothing is borked. EL30 is currently low on my list until someone proves it is completely CIQ-free.
-Sent from my Random Epic.
lol EL30 is just a fix we have already had on cm7 and most any other EI22 rom for months now i say waste of time stick with MTD CM7 is a dream and with now official nightly updates it gets no better then that.
CM7 sounds really good, but is it ready for daily use in a business? I can flash every couple weeks and need emails, texts, gps navigation and working phone. I don't mind testing and installing different apps but reading the cm7 thread... well maybe it is just some of the noob questions. Is it ready for daily use?

Okay
Emails - works just the same
Texts- the only issue with this is that you have to go into the messaging settings and split messages(not really an issue but there's a fix)
Gps- works better than on TouchWiz ROMs although I've never used navigation
Phone- only sight difference is when a call is ended it says "call lost" mightve been fixed idk don't make to much calls myself. But once again not really an issue, the call still ends the same.
So as you see its more than ready for daily use

Well email app has no way to pick "always show pictures" so using K9 is better.
MMS does not send over wifi with stock mms.apk but works with GoSMS.
Calls end normally now from what I saw.
There are even some ported TW stock apps in Apps subforum.

Ah I see that could be annoying
MMS "over" wifi I believe wasn't fixed I could be wrong but mms while on wifi for me currently works on nightly I don't even remember 14 I think lol 3g comes on and sends over 3g, everynow and then I have to send it twice because data didn't really connect but that's a different issue

Yes, that is what happens but it is more like 50/50, like it doesn't wait long enopugh for 3G to connect. But GoSMS doesn't switch to 3G, sends right over wifi.
I remember reading a change log on the recent nightlies where the mms over wifi was fixed.
