search contact via phone number

hi,
i know this software exist but am not sure what the software is called.
By basically, inputting the destination numbers say (the first 4 or 5 numbers) it will bring back the names on your list, the more numbers you input the narrower the search becomes. Almost like the SMS texting function.
I need to search for contact names instead of ringing the entire number first.
cheers,
james
The default IntelliDialer does that.
yes there is a software...
Hello jimjamz!
Simply use the search funktion of your pocket pc... type in as many numbers as you want and then search. You will find the contact, the number belongs to...

Custom Contact Fields

Hey,
Does anyone know if it is possible, through the supplied T-Mobile 2.26 ROM or third party software, to create custom contact fields? For example, say I want to have one contact called Papa John's Pizza and inside that contact have three fields named Anytown, Springfield, and NYC each with a number. As it stands now I have to either make a seperate contact for each location or have one contact and make each location say home, work, and work2. The latter choice makes it near impossible to remember which number goes to which office. I have many contacts that have multiple numbers that do not fit neatly into the supplied fields. On my old S60 phone this was quiet a simple task but I just can't seem to figure it out on WM5. Thanks for the help.
You can use IneSoft Address Book to add custom contact fields. The extra fields will be save as Note.
To mark a phone number you can put the text inside the phone number itself. E.g.
Work: +123456789 (Springfield)
or even
Work: Springfield +123456789
where "Work:" is the field name provide by Contacts application. You can use any character that can't be dialed (e.g. not a digit, * or #). Though some letters may cause problems, e.g. 'p' may mean 'pause'... I write my comments in Russian and therefore has no such problems
I use this solution for a long time. It is not specific to an OS or application.
And yes, IneSoft Address Book is good, not only for additional fields! This was the first application I purchased for my TyTN.

This would be really neat if Voice Commander 1.6 would recognize it, but it doesn't.

VITO SMS

Does anyone use Vito SMS. I think it's an awesome program, but I hate how the Recipient names are displayed. Does anyone know how to make it display the name by First names instead of Last name first?
I use it a couple of days, and I haven't this issue. The names displayed first name - last name for me.
Odd
Mine are Last name - First name as well. Never bothered me though until now :-(
you can change that in the options
I don't have options
version 1.16

Auto-suggest contacts in Inbox

Hi all!
How can I enable auto-suggest feature in inbox? I mean when I start to type in the TO field the device should offer a few contacts starting with the letters I type. This worked for me on my other devices, but not on Diamond.
Currently I can only tap on the TO text, then it slowly opens Contacts app, where I search for a contact, then it opens another screen where I can select which number I want to use. This is way too complicated!
EDIT: I see that if I use the built-in keyboard it does suggest ONE contact and I need to hit the arrows multiple times to get to the right one. However, if I use any other keyboard (like e.g. Resco Keyboard which is my default one), no contacts are offered at all.
Thanx
Still no joy
I found this info, but it still does not work:
"If you want Auto Complete function in "To:" field in SMS app, go to HKLM>System>Inbox>RecipientAutoComplete and change value of the string MaxSuggestions. from 0 to 4 for example."
Half-solution
I found a solution at http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?p=241036
This hack works, however disables the default auto-suggestion of the built-in Touch keyboard. However, I do not intend to search further, this is a completely acceptable compromise for me:
"The culprit is Xt9, when it's enabled it disables sms name lookup, so disable XT9 and whalla. Instructions... browse registry:
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Layouts\e001 0409\Ime File
set the Ime File value from \windows\eT9ime.dll to compime.dll"
You may also need to add these registry entries (not sure):
HKLM>System>Inbox>RecipientAutoComplete
MaxSuggestions (DWORD): 4
HKLM>System>Inbox>RecipientAutoComplete>SuggestionGenerators:
email (STRING): "{364D1505-915A-4b1d-85A6-8C258B2D2246}"
phone (STRING): "{45EEED9B-898c-4caf-BC3E-A5422F56085B}"
Hope somebody will be happy with this finding

registry editor
I am using PHM registry Editor. I have not had any problems with it.
Actually I have this problem not in SMS but in email. I don't get any suggestions at all even without TX9.
Does anyone have a fix for this please?
I am running Nataly 2.6 ROM and both SMS and email have auto-suggestion enabled. However, I have seen some posts complaining about email not working (on other ROMs). Don't know the answer for this one, sorry

Strange Contact Search Problem

Hi,
Any one experiences the following problem on their HTC Leo/HD2?
- When I use the dialpad to find a contact I can use any part of the name and it will be displayed.
e.g Name in contact : Tan Ah Bee (First Name)
So I can key in either "Tan" or "Ah" or "Bee" it will be found.
- But when sending a SMS message, I can only locate the contact if I type "Tan". Keying in "Ah" or "Bee" will not find the contact.
Seems like in SMS mode, it searches the contact name in sequence......
Anyone???
