[Q] Is it possible to use the contact manager from a sense based rom on CM7

I'm basically just looking for the feature of manually adding my contacts facebook pages into their contact tab.

I kinda want the same feature. The MT4G rom was the first rom I flashed on my g2, and I loved being able to keep nicknames while still syncing contacts correctly.

I'm not sure that its possible to do I'm no dev. So I wouldn't say its impossible but I've never seen it done on a non sense rom. But if you know anything about adb you could try pushing the phone.apk or whatever its called into your rom but I wouldn't due to coding issues it would prolly brick the device worst case scenario or might do nothing. If you really want it that bad I suppose you could try it. Don't hold me responsible if your phone bricks or if it detonates a nuke lol. Good luck

Go into the contact you want to keep, hit menu, hit edit contact, hit menu, hit join, selct and done. Its unintuitive but it works.
Also try an alternative dialer from the market. Maybe dialer one?

Use dialer one from the market. Same type of dialer you're looking for. You can change the theme of it to vray, black or white too. Awesome!

How to fully remove android virus? Please someone help me.

The infected phone is an xperia x8 with stock android 2.1update 1. There is !nothing! instaled from the play store and i have never installed any apps from sd. I cant imagine how could it infect my phone. It wasnt even connected to a gmail account. It makes calls, writes text messages with random chatacters in it. Furthermore it makes randomly fake touches on the screen so it's hard to do anything with it. I've already made a hard reset and installed avast and zoner antivirus but none of them finds any viruses. Any ideas? I'm planing to reinstall the rom but if the factory data reset didnt help i dont really think it would make any change... please help someone i'd really apreciate it.thanks

It's not a virus but a faulty digitizer. You can get it repaired from ASC.
Btw, wrong forum.

Sorry i just noticed that i posted in the defy general thread. How can i delete this thread? Sorry for being so noob

Are you sure? It unlocked the screen lock opened the dialer amd called numbers. I dont really think it's the fault of the digitizer.

Facebook App Zoomed In?

So I'm using the Mimicry 1.5.0 ICS ROM, and when I downloaded Facebook, it looks all zoomed in. Its hard to explain so I guess you'll have to see for yourself. I've tried multiple times uninstalling and reinstalling the app. I've erased and re installed the ROM and it always comes out this way. Hopefully someone can find a fix for me. And i've tried using FriendCaster, but I would much rather prefer the Facebook app instead, so please don't suggest apps. Thanks in advance!

Please!

I am suffering from the same issue. This weird zoom-in thing happens also on my current rom "cm10 testbuild-120". It was same on Mimicry 1.5 as mentioned above. Pics through the news feed doesn't look properly and overflow my screen. On my friend's nexus and desire c with stock sense, there seems to be no problem with app layout or another issue. Any help appreciated, please

Good to see I'm not the only one with that issue. They really have to fix it because its really annoying and I've tried using friend caster and I don't like it compared to the Facebook app.

You are right that Friendcaster is not a complete alternative to FB. BTW, i do not have much hope for help because probably we are the only insist on using that damn FB thing

So it looks like its a problem on stock ICS only. I decided to flash the gen.Y sense 4 ROM, and the facebook app looks normal.

Slow phonebook/dialer ?

Hello guys,
my phone's dialer and phonebook has become very slow.
Sometimes it even takes 10 seconds to load.
I have already turned off all the synchronizations.
There are no facebook or gmail contacts in my phonebook.
I have 400 contacts stored in my phone.
What could be the problem ?

from app drawer, hold the dialer icon. then go into app info and from there 'clear data'. do this for people also...(contacts will not be deleted)

Thanks for your reply.
I've tried your suggestion, but it's still not working.

It's because you have 400 contacts

which gapps u flash? tel me ROM,kernel

Sounds Wierd.
Running PACman ROM with Titanium KISS Kernel..
No problems with Dialer/Contacts app.... I had a vCard file which had >500 contacts.. but it doesn't lag..

maybe you just have too many background apps open?

Telling the ROM and Kernel would be a great help....
Sent from my HTC One V using xda app-developers app

Hello,
I've got the same problem with stock Sense, also there was a lag sometimes with medium-heavy load when I've been trying to call. The weird is my friend with ONE X got the same problem, so we thought it was our country's network, but since I changed to maxwen-Lloir's CM10 it is running like charm.

I think it maybe HTC sense's problem.......
Sent from my HTC One V using xda premium

Yes it's that yucky Stock Sense problem..
All the HTC One Series have the same problem..... It lags!
Root and flash some other ROM.... and if you want Sense, flash myONEv RC 7.0fx+! I'm amazed to see it's speed... Phonebook/Dialer app is exactly same but it's really fast!

Thanks for your replies guys.
No, I am not using any custom ROMs, just the default HTC Sense.
And I don't want to void my phone's warranty.

You can find so much third party apps for
contacts I prefer --->Ex-dialer
Messages----->messaging ICS
Music --> player pro

I know that bro.
And I have already tried couple of third party dialers but that did not help.

I have deleted all the apps cache and removed some unwanted apps.
And guess what, now the dialer is taking good 15-20 seconds after touching the call button.:crying:

Root it. : it will help u.

I had this same issue with AOKP but not to that extreme extent. There was a slight lag just noticeable enough to be irritating. I tried flashing different versions of gapps but ultimately just gave up. I don't believe it's a contact issue because I don't have the least bit of a problem with the stock dialer.

[Q] Can't log in to the Facebook Messenger App.

So, here is my issue:
Since the last 3 updates I can't log in to the app. No matter what I do i just CAN'T. I have an HTC One X (Tegra 3) woth the SkyDragon ROM (the first time that I got the error I was on stock JB). No matter if I use WiFi or Data, I just can't. I've tried differente roms and all of them had the same issue (i'm starting to think that the issue is inside my phone)
So... If anyone out there is able to help I'll apreciate it.

I'm sure you\ve already tried this but gotta put it in, have you gone to apps,and cleared data/cache
download the latest version of facebook from play store
confirmed your username/password by logging off on a computer, and logging back in

Ok, I must add: I've tried installing the last working APK for me (2.3.1 version) and it didn't worked!!I got the same error message.
PS: Even I've tried the ROM that you are using now and it did not worked.
Could be something with the registry or something like that?

I've just been trying different things to try and replicate the problem but it doesn't matter what I do, facebook and messenger sign in every time without problem. What versions do you have? I Have Facebook 3.1 and messenger 2.4.3. Also I looked at reviews of the new version of messenger and couldn't see any users having sign in problems

I have the same versions! Well, I found some comments in spanish but they were from a month or two ago... Could be something with my FB config? I mean, I've never touched it before so I guess that it's not. The 2.3.2 version brought me to this point t.t Now if I install an older one it wont sing in that's why I think that it must be something with my phone or the internal storage i dont know!

I'd be shocked if it was your phone/hardware related. storage maybe, but more likely some cached data somewhere. Have you got more than one apk version in storage?

I can tell you, that your not alone. When i look at the danish reviews of the app i can go back to around november last year when people started having problems with not being able to log in.
I myself and a friend both have the HOX and niether of us is able to log in.
I have tried several times finding a way to repport to bug to facebook, but it seems like all their help sections are just loops refering to each others and never ending in something useful.

Yea, i have tried that and it did not help.
At the moment i have a little fix to the isue (i like getting notifications whem people write), so i removed all facebook software from my phone and only installed the facebook app (not messenger) and then you will start to get notifications agian.
I would ask you to try and instal the facebook pages app and se if you are able to login there, because I think the same error is in both the messenger and and the pages app.

Nope, I was not able to log in to the facebook pages app too! Could be something with our CID's and our locatons? Have you tried a ROM without "sense" like cyanogen or something?

Can you log in from the browser?
