When you link a contact to Facebook, it'll seem to take preference on the Facebook number on the account. Now if the number starts '447xxxxxxxx' when you try and ring it doesn't call and fails as it needs to be '+447xxxxxxx' or '07xxxxxx'. As its ringing the wrong number. This is in the UK by the way so the 44 may be different in othere countries
Example
Mike in my phone has a mobile number of 07123456789. In Facebook it is down as 447123456789. After I sync my contact on my desire to the facebook account the only number is 447123456789 in the Contact. When I try and ring it fails as it needs to dial 07123456789 not 447123456789
Has anyone else had this issue? And has any1 got around it?
Thanks
This is what happens, you have to have the friend in question change their number on their FB account
Having said that, there was a way of changing the default number but it's easier to just have the friend change it online
Thanks 4 that. However that isn't possible as there is a good number of friends like that.
How do u change the default? Do you have any idea? Or does any1 else?
Thanks

No i dint believe u can have that same tone set for msgs and txt, etc
*This was posted from my Evo 4G*
Yes it is possible you need to download ringo pro and you can set custom ringtones for caller, text, voicemail but not individual email

I would have thought different
Maybe tboneheath knows something I do not. I don't know how to add ring tones/sounds to your current list of choices. I assumed it would be that easy, but I may be wrong. I have not tried it yet because I am to busy applying roms.

Thank you very much that will help

Is the what is referred to as HTC Super Caller ID or a different program?
http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.innovamentis.supercallerid
If this isn't the right one talked about in the Froyo update then can someone point me in the right direction please
Thanks all!
That's not it. Essentially it shows the latest status update from Facebook and the birthday of the person calling. It's a gimmick.
so is this something that is built in to the new 2.2 android update or is it a seperate app that you have to install for this information to be displayed?
It's built into HTC's Sense UI with Froyo, yeah.
Not working on my phone for some reason.

When someone calls you, assuming you've linked their account in your contacts then it should just pop-up.

Yeah their picture pops ip but their status and birthday doesn't, am I missing a setting somewhere maybe?
I'm interested in this as well as I have the same features as 2.1 when receiving a call.

What are you guys going on about? This is an app called super caller id, it has nothing to do with htc, its a 3rd party app that shows the callers address and other info on the dialers incoming call screen, it only works in a handfull of contries atm tho

Ok, so a friend asked me to text them with another friends number. Sure, I said, no problem.
I started a new message (using Polymod 2.1D) filled in the number of my friend who asked, and then started to compose the actual message.
But, for love nor money, could I find any option to insert a number from my contact list!
I exited the message and went to the contact list. I found the "Share" option, but that simply made an email with a .vcf attachment!
Is there anyway to be able to insert a contact into a text (sms) message?
The default messaging program isn't that great.
I personally like ChompSMS which does what you want but have a look though the market and see which one is best for you.
And which is Best you think?

Hi guys,
So i've seen and heard a lot about this forum and its my first post here so hello! I've recently bought an htc desire which is locked to the orange network (UK) and i was wondering whether it is possible to change the following things please? :
1) Menu > Photos and there is no link to picasa?! Why? Is it possible to add one please?
2)Same thing with friend stream. Is it possible to add a link to picasa please?
3) Lastly, when some 1 calls you, you get two buttons on the screen. You click on them either to accept or decline. Now instead of tapping on the buttons, is it possible to add a feature which allows you to slide to accept/decline ? (I think this might be a feature from the iphone?).
Thanks!
Sorry if this is a basic question guys. I'm an android noob here!

friend stream only includes facebook and twitter, you cant add anything else, as far as the menu goes unless there is a picasa app on the market no you cant, the desire has the slide to answer feature, you only get it if the screen is off when you receve a call ......

It does indeed mate. Thanks for pointing that out. Could you help me with the other 2 q's plz?
Folks,
I need to have 2 mobile numbers in my contact for the same person.
It seems in HTC Desire is not possible. i'm using LeeDrOiD HD V3.3.3-Port-R5.
Is it possible to replace the People app with something else which support 2 or more mobil number in a contact ?
I know i can enable this if the contact is saved on google contact, but i do not want to use Google contact. Thank you.
why are you so complicated? are you syncing with outlook or something?
if not i would say you just use one of the other options...
go to contacts, edit contact, click on new, than on the white button near the number and maybe you try the "Second Number" i dont know if it serves your needs
but if someof my contact has a second number it has always a reason, so i put it to privat or work or car dunno ....
maybe i helped you deciding
Hi crendot,
Yes i tried put the second mobile number as other number such as 'work' or 'fax'.
It's just a matter of convenience.
Does anybody has a better solution ? Thanks.
Contacts - edit - add number - change fax / home what ever to mobile... put the number in....
If you can't do that... change to another rom
if its so important for you i have a other solution
its a workaround and not realy neat but it does its job
make a new contact with the mobilenumber you want, set it like you want and than go to the other contact where "mobile" is already in use.
just go at the top to the chain, to combine/link them together, here go to all contact, select the one you just made and tada both have mobile
best solution i can offer
have a nice day
is it really so complex add 2 mobile numbers in the same contact? at the moment im on cm, but even on sense rom u can do that simply..
@BigMrB
I can't do that. Do you know which rom that allows me to do that ?
@andQlimax
sense rom do not allow you to add 2 mobile number under the same contact.
@crendot
yes it's useful. but i think i'll switch to another rom. Thanks a lot for your help.
