[Q] help finding sms app

Could anyone give me the name of any apps that will allow me to turn my sms on the desire to unthreaded ?
Thanks in advance
Unthreaded? No not seen that for a few years now. Why not rejoice and welcome threaded sms? Most phones do it now - what probs does it cause you?
I am just not s big fan of it that's all

HTC Sense, link "phone" button to contacts

Hi guys,
I really hate this T9 dailer thing what you get when you click on the phone shortcut in Sense. Is it possible to link this to contacts or even replace the whole dialer with the Android stock one?
Some of you may ask yourself why I hate it.
Reason 1: you dial people by mistake like all the time
Reason 2: you are unable to hide Facebook contacts
Reason 3: the call list is integrated and I normally need longer to find a contact I called before because he's not where you look for him.

Nearly forgot to mention that I am on a rooted HTC Froyo ROM.

HTC desire running Cmod 7 issues.

Okay I'm running the latest cyanogen rom and all is well besides the fact I've lost some contacts and am unable to store new ones on the sim.
Is there a way around this?

yeppers, use your google account for contacts storage, you will never have a problem
+1
Google account automatically syncs with your phone, no need to hassle with contacts backup/restore Also, it can be used to backup your installed apps automatically (without settings restored tho)
Thank you so much guys

Invaluable tip, thanks very much. Had the same problem.
Pendlebum I downloaded an application called contacts2sim and it will store any numbers you have stored to your phone to your sim. Its a bit of an inconvenience but it works

I just noticed that if i choose an image other than the facebook picture, then it will show in applications

my missus has the one x and has the same problem. i resolved it by downloading "friendcaster" and that allowed the facebook pictures to show in handcent/go sms
Yeah i know but i wanted to see if im not the only one. I am using syncmypix to do the job but i was wondering what might be causing the issue :/

apparently an ICS problem, I get the problem on my GNEX too
Yeah or it could be the apps have compatibility isuues with ics. The pictures show fine in people and dialer.

All you need to do is download the app Photo Unlocker. Your Facebook Sense photos are restricted from being used in other apps, but this app unlocks them so they can be seen in all 3rd party apps.
Edit: I noticed this app isn't in the market anymore. I have a titanium backup of it, so if anyone tells me how to get the APK from there, I can post it here.

Neither can i find any of the mentioned software, nor i received an update for whats app... Can you share the app mentioned on the previous page.
THanks.
Yeah i still havent got the whatsapp update. Heres the link for haxsync:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mots.haxsync&hl=en
Its the only app that worked for me cz i didnt wanna set up friend caster.
Talking about whatsapp does anyone else get the message "try again later" when sending a picture to someone?

ANy other fix on this then rather than using a 3rd party utility?
Not that i'm aware of!
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Yeah I have the same problem.
Whatsapp doesn't show contacts (facebook)profile pictures.
Running all the latest Market versions of Facebook, whatsapp en handheld SMS.
There are no more updates so far.
Still no profile pics in whatsapp contacts list.
Anyone has a solution by now?

Is it possible to do something with Facebook for HTC Sense app, like delete or whatever?? Maybe fixes it?
It says Facebook for HTC Sense version 4.0.2215172619.345324.334711
Or clicking info: Version 1.00.0101.62864
Anyone help us out???
The only solution i have found is to use HaxSync from google play! It works like a charm!
I dont like friend caster since it is an app like facebook so more traffic and more data usage. Haxsync just syncs the pics and you can specify how often.

Missing apps.

Hey guys.
I recently noticed a strange thing on my One VX. There are a lot of apps installed the phone that don't show up in the app drawer, for example, voice recorder, mirror, Polaris office, etc. But when I look in the installed apps list, I find them there.
Are you guys noticing this too on your phones or am I the only one?
