hi guys
do you know how to remove a contact picture? after assigning a picture there's only the option to change it to something else and i'd like to remove it
I can not delete contact's picture, too....
I made this pic,it is the grey used on the Samsung Omnia 7, I assume its the same for all WP7 phones?
you should be able to remove it via desktop, which seems a bit weird, but yea, that is a work around for it.

I have gone into the contacts and set my sim contacts as inactive, yet when I open the contact list when creating a new SMS, all my SIM contacts are there... this is really really annoying. I can not for the life of me figure out how to disable this.
I've had a G1 for the past 1.5 years, rooted and running custom roms, so I know this has to be a snake in the grass waiting to bite me. Can anyone lend a hand?
Sorry if this is a bit hard to follow, long day
And yes, I have searched.. again, I know this is probably right in front of my face.
same problem here hopefully gets fixed in and update
same crap here another two annoyances from the stock sms app is no led and if text are sent in the same minute they get outta order
I cant stand how you can sync your facebook with only the contacts that are in your address book. But then when you go to text someone is shows everyone from facebook as a option to message. I just want it to show the people in my addess book. is there any way to do this. Have it sync just your contacts with facebook and not have everyone and their mother show up in the who to message list?
go into contacts and press the option menu,then view. disable the t-mobile one contacts too. because t-mobile keeps all ur contacts too...
i had a similar problem, hope this help tho...

it still ends up coming up when you search for the name in the sms app or other apps thats just to clear it from the phone app
This phone handles syncing strange. I cant wait till its rooted so i can put a Cyanogen rom on it. Even when i delete all the tomobile contacts. It finds a way of bringing them back.

This, 1000000000 times this. If I turn off veiwing facebook for mytouch contacts in the address book it still shows 100000 people form facebook in the sms part when i go to send a new message.
Yes... the syncing on this phone is indeed weird and annoying.. it was cool at first seeing everything pool in and popup without entering any info.. then it went awire , so I hit the killswitch on the whole operation. I know this isn't an answer to the problem, but maybe u can do without syncing until the froyo update comes next week (wishful thinking) ? Or do a hard reset and resync everything over slowly
No way I could find to not see all your contacts as is described in post #1. Dowload a full-featured sms app.

Handcent or Chomp. I prefer the former but have not used the latter much. For all new Android users reading this...please use androidtapp.com for reviewing apps. If they have reviewed the app, it is very thorough, including screen shots and an overall rating. This also gives you an idea of what the app can do, especially in comparison to a stock app so you don't have to frumpenuzzle with it yourself.
Just a word on handcent. I can not stand the way it looks. Its a blatent iphone look-a-like

Switch the skin to the Hero skin.. I forgot it even came imitating the iphone since I always had it with the hero skin on my G1. When I installed it on the slide I was like aww wtf haha. I also have it with no bubbles or or handcent type bubbles.

Hi everyone,
I've got a HTC Mozart and I just wondered if any other models have a message in the authors field in the EXIF data from photos taken.
It has "Hello from Seattle"
Just like the original Zune packaging had that same hidden message.
to be honest i'm not sure what you mean.
Exact this same on my Omnia7.
Anybody know how we can change it??
to The Gate Keeper:
every photo you take got this message in author field

Sync a photo to a PC, right click and view properties and look at the author field.
As i recall, Photoshop (CS3, etc) strips this out automatically. If you do a "Save for Web & Devices" Photoshop strips the EXIF data.
It would be good to stop it for good, rather than needing Photoshop.

If you are using Windows 7 (I think Vista can do it as well) then you can remove it using Explorer. Just select it in the image properties and delete it.
That's great, however there should be a way on the phone eventually to change the author field for each photo and not have to edit it later.
Hi
I have a HTC Mozart, but today i will buy a Samsung Omnia 7
Now i want to know how could i bring the SMS (Messages) to the Samsung?
You can't, I'm afraid. Only backup that exists today is the one taken before an OS upgrade and its doubtful that can be restored to another handset. And there is no 3rd party backup software so no practical way exists to backup your messages on WP7.
1. so i will lose all my messages?
2. could it work after the Nodo-Update?
3. whats with my contacts?

1. Yes, I've been through that multiple times when exchanging my Dell venue pro, all messages gone.
2. Doesn't look like Nodo addresses this in any way, and nothing in the Zune software has been changed either to accommodate this. Sad state, but this is becoming a trend with WP7.
How can i save my contacts?

If you have a Windows Live ID, sync it into Windows Live Contacts. It would sync automatically when your other phone also uses this ID. Of course U can also use Google / Exchange (Outlook) contacts if you have.
I suggest you use Windows Live one. If you don't want to merge the phone contacts into the Windows Live ID you are using for chatting, you could sign up a new one specially for your WP and phone contacts. Then you could manage your contacts on Widnows Live Mail client, Hotmail web page and also your phone itself. It's more convenient for editing your contacts info on PC instead of phone. They would sync to each other after any change you made.

Since you already have a Mozart those contacts should be in Windows Live and will transfer to your new handset.

thank you HTC Mozart for the last four months

Hi,
This may sound really stupid but how the heck do you add your contact in text? I want to send a text but cant see where i can click to then pick the contact i want to send it to?
Matt

Hi,
Yeah i can see the "To" but if i click it or in the box it does nothing. Surely i dont have to start to type the name in and then click it?
Thats exatually what you do
select the box and start type the name of your contact
What else would you do ?

Every phone ive ever had including the galaxy s2 when you clicked in the to box it would bring uo your contact list letting you choose the contact.
Matt
You can also go to the contact list and choose to text
Go to Phone Icon > People tab, then click on the left box where their photo is.
Then on the right side of the phone number is an icon i can't describe, but that lets you text.
yeah many phones do that
But i would always search in the list anyway so for me this is a step less

Hey guys,
just unboxed and powered up my new 10.1 2014 edition but something very odd is happening. When starting up for the first time I stupidly asked it to restore from google all my apps (which were from my galaxy s4). Anyway, it did so. It also did two system updates.
Anyway, I now look in the Apps (you know that grid button, bottom right) and I can't see items like Evernote or Twitter yet, they are installed! I can however see them in the Application Manager. I have the grid set to "Show Alphabetical". I must be being a muppet so please tell me what stupid mistake have I done?
Thanks in advance!
Also noticed the Twitter widget isn't appearing .... very odd!
Look for Google, Samsung, and Galaxy Plus in the app drawer. They are folders and have other apps inside.

OK so you are correct for the APPS but not the widgets! Still don't have a twitter widget, for example. Also, what's really confusing me is that I can usually just use the search and type "evernote" (for example) and it would appear yet, it seems that as it's in a folder, it doesn't show up as a search result where as apps that aren't do show up.
Very unimpressive.
Never the less, I'm now up and running with 3rd party Facebook and Twitter widgets and have now managed to locate the missing apps.
Thanks Maris!
(I look forward to custom ROMs removing this limitation)

In widgets, check for "Discover" Twitter. Rather confusing.

Why on Earth would they mess with the normal names!? Anyway, I've discovered a 3rd party widget which is great and displays more than the standard (phone) widget. Thanks anyway!
