Insert contact numbers when composing SMS messages.
I created this simple application because sometimes when i send contact details to other phones using vcard, they cannot seem to receive it. Also, it's very frustrating to copy/paste contact details from the contacts window to the new sms window.
I hope this will help other members too

great work..i some times have need for it

Hi Oldsap,
I appreciate the work. I actually use this old version from Ondrej at airfagev that was built for WM2003 I believe but works perfectly on WM 6.1. I like it because it adds an option in the main contacts area on the menu bar itself (not a separate application). Here's the description:
This free Contacts Add-On has been inspired by RJV SendContact. Since the SendContact has many drawbacks like you can't use T9 search from list of Contacts, etc., Ondrej has developed this and shared it to airfagev as a freeware.
After installing the app, you should see Send via email/SMS added to your contacts menu. This utility also allows you to select which contact info you want to send like Name, Mobile No., Work No., etc. Thanks to Ondrej.

hey oldsap, thanks muchly for the Insert Contacts app, it's certainly easier than faffing about trying to copy & paste!
gadgetshrink, i've installed the contacts menu app a few times on WM6 Touch but cannot find anyway to activate / use it on the phone...
any help? maybe i'm missing something?

Contacts in "Messaging"

Has anyone found another way around this? When you go to Messaging > New message...do you really have to put in a phone number or can you type a name instead?
Because If i type in a name, it just types in the numerical equivalent of the letters. for example: Ryan Smith comes out to "7926 76484"
Does Google actually think that people will memorize the phone numbers of the contacts they want to text message?
So the way around it for now is to go to Contacts and click on "Send Txt Message" but I've been spoiled with the Dash where I can just search for the contacts in the messaging client itself.

when I go to messaging>new message and I type in a name, it has a list to select from. The first is the numerical equivalent, but under that are all the matching names in my phone book. Is yours not like this?

Me too....

it's weird cuz i do. since there is no program that takes screenshots of the g1 yet, i took a picture:

}
i tried typing in Cheryl Addeco (don't worry, it's not a real name haha) and it never displayed the phone number I inputed 14089994433. Instead, it just did the "numerical equivalent" of 243795 233326

weird... it should show below it did on mine... I will get screen shots tomorrow of what I do.

i get a list of my contacts as well not sure why this is happenning to some and not others.

yeah i,ve had that problem with i first got the phone.
I didn't use Gmail for contacts much.
I exported my contacts from outlook using CSV
and then imported them into gmail when i got my G1.
I was having the same exact problem as the OP.
I've noticed a pattern with it though.
It only happened with some contacts.
Other contacts it would show up when i started typing their name.
I tried to find something in common with the ones that showed up.
I realized that when i had a POS nokia 6131, when i added contacts it saved their number as "Other"
When i added contacts with my iphone, i had a chance to select it as "Mobile".
The contacts that show, have (Mobile) next to the names.
So i went into my Gmail, and edited all the numbers to be Mobile as opposed to Other.
After i finished that everything was fine!

All of them are Mobile...if they're supposed to be in Mobile. Interestingly enough, I tried playing around with changing them from Mobile to Home and when I click on save, it doesn't save the changes and leaves it to whatever it was.
The ONLY number that shows up is the one I added. I noticed though when I looked in GMail contacts that for the person that shows up, it says "mobile" and the rest of my contacts say "Mobile"

[APP] Myphone Microsoft Online Backup 200mb

The service is available today.
Basically it consists of a password-protected web site and an on-device application, which together will help you back-up, restore, and manage your mobile phone data. If you’ve ever wanted to save your text messages, hated re-entering all your contact information when you bought a new phone, or wished you could easily archive some of your pictures, then I think you’re about to be happy. From the main site, getting started is as simple as entering your Windows Live ID. After you’re signed in to the web site, you’ll need to download the application to your Windows Mobile phone. You can either navigate to an installation link using your phone’s browser or you can have a link text messaged to your phone.

Once the application is installed on your phone, setting things up is pretty easy.
You’ll need to enter your Windows Live ID and select your synchronization method, but after that the application does pretty much everything for you.
By default, My Phone synchronizes contacts, calendar appointments, tasks, photos, videos, text messages, music, and documents that are stored on the device.
If you want to synchronize items from a storage card you’ll need to change your My Phone settings, but it is possible. For more specifics on what can and can not be synchronized, see the My Phone information page.

[Q] How to delete e-mail accounts when they not appear in the start->messaging list?

[Q] How to delete e-mail accounts when they not appear in the start->messaging list?
I once had two e-mail accounts on my phone, so when I went to the register card (the touch flow one) I found three little mail-buttons there one was for outlook, one for e-mail provider A and one for provider B. After some month they stopped working and did no longer appear in the start->messaging list of you accounts, so after some nother month I added them again, but now I seem to have:
1. Outlook
2. A
3. B
4. old A
I would certainly like to get rid of "old A" as it is of no use to me, better still put all my two accounts together in only "outlook" and sync them with my PC. Would that be possible? I don't even find a solution on how to delete "old A" as there seems to be no option or drop down menus where i could delete the account!
Thanks a lot for your help!

Solution to delete your "old A" should be simple. Go to messages > menu > instruments > options and you should see all your accounts there: sms/mms , outlook,A, B and old A. Press and hold on old A and you will get the option to delete it

Thanks, thats what I thought would help the only problem is that "old A" is not even there. When I use the TouchFlo to go to my e-mail tab there are four little mail symbols on the right, 3 of them lead to the right mail box if I press the down left softkey for post box. only the fourth one leads to the "messaging" window but old A is (again) not there. I know it is not really bad, but it's annoying to have 2 new messages all the time because I can neither delete or open them or the account they seem to be in.
Any ideas?

Have you tried switching off Touch Flo and starting it again or deleting all your other mail accounts, restarting and adding them again ? Maybe you should consider using a program to scan for bad registry. Have no clue why it doesn't appear in the mail accounts. Basically if you don't have that account registered, Touch Flo shouldn't display any mail messages. There's always the hard way, making a hard reset, but that implies loosing all your installed programs and stuff. Are you sure you went to this section just like in my pic ? I don't use Touch Flo anymore, i'm using SPB mobile shell.

Phantom Voicemails - Still have them

I have been having issues with the Phantom Voicemail issue on all the Cyanogen Mod roms.
I have tried changing the voicemail phone number through the My Carrier options, that did nothing. Tried clearing out the Dialer Storage, that did nothing.
I have spent roughly 3 hours trying to find a fix. Does anyone know of anything?
I use Google Voice, so the dual notification icons get annoying, not to mention the fact that this one doesn't disappear, and reappears if I reboot my phone, or go in and out of service.
If there is a file that I can remove to have it stop, and allow me to just use Google Voice, that would work great too, as of now, I just want the darn thing gone.

You have to download an app and black list it. There's a post around here somewhere. I'm on my phone so I can't find it. But look for Sprint's VVM. There's a link to the app in the OP.

The two apps I can think of are RedList, and SPC (Super Private Conversation). SPC is the bigger of the two apps (I think around 2-3mb?), but I don't think the free version of RedList lets you disable the notification icon (I could be wrong? Someone feel free to correct me).

Is there anything other then an application that can block the notification message?
Removing a file or changing a file perhaps?

No clue, though I'd wager it has to be done on the code level.
I don't think I've ever actually ran into this bug. I gather it notifies you of voicemails despite not actually having any? Odd.

It looks like this, with my phone number edited out.

No matter what the time it is, this was on first boot up. Then it "notified me" again, at 11:17 PM.

It's a known bug on Cyanogenmod...
