Hi, i've installed Android on my HD2 for the first time, and it is my very first time with android.
I've installed Cryanoged mod.
All is very interesting and beautiful, but i suffer for the lack of search into contacts from phone number pad. For work, i have more than 1000 numbers in my contacts and.. you know, "search" is my first needing.
In the WM Sense, i can make searching by number pad of phone, i.e. selecting 672 i have all names with "orc" and "osc" (etc) in the name, even if it is in the middle of the name. This is very important for me.
Can you tell me if there is an option, or an application for to import similar searching method in Android?
thanks in advance
Hi,
Try going to Android Market ,click on the "search" button and type in "SEARCH CONTACTS".
There are lots of apps for this
You can simply place a search widget on your main screen and tell it to search your contacts instead of say the web. Didn't need to download any certain app.

when i have lots of sms for one contact it take ages to reply to that contact..... any solution..........
Errr, the hotfix on the HTC website and in the sticky about hotfix rollup...
i ve installed all all hotfixes on the htc website... still noluck
i have already installd that but still it takes long time to reply because it takes long time to load all the sms from that contact..... any solution for this???
There is a workaround, which isn't ideal but it does work. As the messages are loading, tap on one of them so that it opens up the menu (Forward, Delete etc). Leave this open for about 1 second, then tap the 'close' softkey. It would appear that while this menu is displayed, the HD2 is able to load up all the messages quickly.
As I said, it's not ideal but it's something to try.
This bug and the contacts bug need to be sorted by HTC pretty damn soon.
thats how i am using it now....
man...... HTC need to come up with something real fast......
You could just turn off HTC messaging and use the native windows app, for now. It has a couple of foibles, but works perfectly well and is an ideal solution until the HTC version gets fixed.

can you also help me on a nother issu....?

You must have replaced an existing font for that to happen. I'm afraid you can't have 2 fonts with the same name, so you can only view either the website OR facebook.
If you tell me what file it was then I'll give you a copy of the original.
if i remove the .ttf files i installed its work fine. but when i put them back its not working i ve tried several times (by default windows font folder is empty)
and i have not replaced any font during the process
i hope there is a solution for this cos only facebook app is giving me a problem......
Strange. I always assumed that fonts worked in the same way as on a PC.
I guess there's a default version of a font somewhere and windows is using that, but when you put a different version in the font folder it uses that instead.
It may be worth asking about this in the generic forum, rather than a leo specific forum.
Either one of these will probably help, but I think the 1st one is probably the correct place to ask...

Windows mobile software dev
You should have more luck in one of those places
I had the surprise to see that when you start typing on Keypad the name of a contact it only search from the beginning not anyware in the contact name... this is not quite good
Any call managers ?

You might be able to expect this in a future firmware, I use the Korean version where they have better official support. I just tested typing "ley" and it picked up Hayley. Long-term you should be ok.
This was the question I posted right after I bought this phone, search market for dialer one, it will solve your problem until samsung fix this stupid smart dial

Hello all,
I recently bought an HD2 again (after a rubbish galaxy S) and this time I installed android. (DFT stock desire rom)
everything works great, except for the following.
When I enter e number in contact in format 0475123456 or +32475123456 (belgian formats) and I call the number there is no problem.
but when I enter the SMS menu, and I press the call button he displays the number 32475123456, so not starting with 0 and not with +32 as it should be.
Now sometimes these SMS messages do not arrive at its destination. And when I call from out the SMS menu, I end up at a different location then the number I wanted to reach. Very strange, but mostly it is a fixed line number, and not a mobile number...
I think the 32475123456 number can be the problem that sometimes SMS messages do not arrive...
Can somebody think of anything this can be?
thanks for your answer!
grtz
I have the same problem. Pity that no one can help. If you managed to solve it, please let us know how
You can try 0032 instead of +32 for all your contacts ..
it doesn't help, I use operator 'Orange' in Poland, still can't sent SMS otherwise than by entering the number manually
Will the problem be solved when I flash another android rom maybe?

Yes it will... There is also a script that can solve I though(search something like "xda android dialer fix script" on google), but you might want to try a different rom as the battery drainage of this rom is pretty bad(smoothness is still unbeated though).
Hint go for gingerbread...
thanks man, now at least I know there s a fix, when I install another rom. I was already thinking of going to gingerbread. I like the nexus HD2 one, is that a good one?

For what I´ve read the Nexus rom should be good, I use the hyperdroid rom (v11) and it works very good(after adjusting the DPI)
I need a big help please. I just mod cyanogen7. I realize that when I press dialpad to call someone, it will not automatically search in Phonebook contact. It will not show any contact person.
For example, when I want to call Steven I just press 7 and 8, and his name should show up. But now nothing was search after the mod.
Thanks
still need help. help please
same problem eventhough I flash. newest cyanogen 7004 rc1
i think htc/sense is needed for this option
and it s not available in the latest roms since HTC will not update to 2.x

As he said this intellectual search feature works only in sence UI, which is available for our click only in official 1.6 ROM and several 2.1 custom ROMS (you can find them here in development thread)

thank you all. and dialer one is working great
the only problem left to this mod is the youtube having no picture
I discovered this as well, and since I want to stick with the stock dialer because it runs fine I found another way. I'm just using the search button to search in my contact book, which is quite simple as well.

Easy: go to phone (where you usually input numbers) and you'll see a new keyboard layout, in which you have numbers and chars as well. If you input any number the t9dialer will look for contacts including that number or corresponding char. See attachment
Well... seems that the screen capture has problem :banghead::thumbup:

another question... if possible
How to calibrate the G-sensor?
Thanks
guess it's not possible with this rom... I use to have it in 1.6... a long time ago..I almost forgot it. Try to send a message to other users, maybe opening a new thread. Sorry that I can't help.

ok .. no problem!!
thanks again
You have programs that you can download from Android Market (Play Store) and with them you can re-calibrate G-sensor of your phone.
Can't remember now how those applications are called. If I remember, I'll edit this post.
lol dont feel bad, i was about to ask a similar question but found this thread
Just type the beginning of someones number in Phone app, and it will automatically show your contact.
My thought about this is just useless feature for lazy people.
