Anyone know what the globe icon in the app jumplist is for?
I wonder if we're going to be able to add Bookmarks to the applist (of if this is currently doable but I'm missing something).
If anyone doesn't know what I'm on about, I'm referring to the globe that's after Z when you press on a letter in the App List.

My guess is it has something to do with foreign languages

Yeah its in the people hub too. Its for other languages.
Yep, I just checked and can confirm the above- all my contacts with non-english names (Chinese, Japanese, anything that can't be alphabetised) show up there.

You can pin favorites to the Start page by opening up IE, visiting the we page you want to pin. Hit the "..." in the bottom right corner and select "Pin to start". This works in Mango.

Correct.
It's jumplist for foreign languages (Next after "Z").

Hi guys,
I just picked up my MDA Vario V and noticed that some things seem to be missing compared to the normal TP2
-TF3D2 style notification bubbles
-New notification manager
-Facebook upload feature
-Option to disable the icon screen you get when clicking on the taskbar.
Is there a way to fix this through cabs, or do I need to wait for HardSPL to come out and flash a new rom?

This should get facebook working...
Do the following 3 reg edits...
HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila\
1. Facebook.Disable (Set the DWORD to 0)
2. Manila://people\browserlayer\peopleupdate.page.hidden (Set the DWORD to 0)
3. Manila://PeopleDetail\peopleView.page.hidden (Set the DWORD to 0)
Then do a soft reset of the device and it should work
Thanks for your help. But it does not work On the one hand now you can go on "Me" (contact card) and can see the facebook button at the bottom (it wasn't there before changing the registry settings). But by trying to start the "app" nothing happens. it's like a block..

What is it you're trying to start? When you are in "People", can you not go to "Updates" and link to a facebook profile?

I think so. I've got the german device, so I don't really know how the tabs are named on the english one. But I think I know what you mean. So I think normally you should have some kind of an "action" button for each contact where you can see the facebook status, etc.? I haven't got this tab. My tabs for each contact are: Details (with all numbers and adresses,etc); sms messaging, e-mail and phone history

I got the MDA Vario 5 as well. To my delight, it wasnt sim-locked.
So far, not much missing or added to the phones ROM by TMobile.
They have some Web n Walk stuff added as an 'Internet' tab and like the other guy mentioned, some notification stuff is missing.

Do you have this screen when in the contact...
Hi boys,
i don't have TP2, just TP1, but I am solving this problem too...i have a ported version of TF3D2 without facebook integration, but I was able to get it working.
I've attached all files that I needed for FB integration. Some files are hidden..
Copy only those manila files that are not included in your ROM.
Maybe the only needed file will be FacebookSDK.dll
copy all needed to \Windows\ folder...
hope I helped a bit
PS: you also have to make registry edit mentioned before.

No, I do not have this screen But after copying some files (incl. the FacebookSDK.dll) out of the fb.zip I got the following:
My own contact-card (screen2)
Contact-Card of a contact in "view-mode" (screen1) --> "Events-Tab" is missing
Contact-Card of a contact in "edit-mode" (screen3)
If I want to link a contact with a foto, I get screen4 --> After choosing "Facebook-Profil" I get the list with all my facebook contacts (screen5)
Edit: Sorry, the attached thumbnails aren't in the right order. So: "Screen2" is the first one, "Screen1" is the last, "Screen3" is the fourth, "Screen 4" is the third and "Screen5" is the second one.
I did not have any of these "facebook-links" in my TF3D-menus before.
Does anybody have an idea how to fix the problem with the events-tab ?
BennyT
does anybody know how to activate the "progams-tab" in the slider?

Hi,
I hope you can help with this if you know the answers.
1. From the HTC Desire manual page 65
If you see the word you want highlighted in green or orange, you can simply tap the space bar to insert the word into your text.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Can you disable this? So, when pressing the space bar, it wont take the highlighted word. I saw in the past a setting for this, but I cannot find it back.
2. Is that true that text prediction is not available on certain apps?
For example: Market, when I am searching for something, the text prediction does not popup.
Can we enable this? I guess ... not.

sorry i cant help you i guess, i also wish i knew how to enable the prediction everywhere and i think it will be available once it will be rooted?
With regards to text prediction not working in certain places, I think in a place the Android Market it's understandable because plenty of the apps aren't proper words or names so text prediction would be pointless.
A predictive search feature like you get in Google trying to guess what you are going to search based on popularity, but ignoring whether it's a proper word or not... Now that would be preferable in the Market.
One of the things that drove me crazy with the new gesture keyboard was it's inability to allow me to use curse words...
Settings ---> Language & input ---> Personal dictionary
Touch the + symbol at the top right.
Add whatever words you want and it'll start showing up in your gestures! Another fun trick is adding a word like "email" and giving it the shortcut to your actual email. When you type in email you'll also have the option to select your actual email address in the suggestion bar. This also helps with curse words that'll default over normal words... Add the regular word and shortcut the curse word so that you can quickly use it in the suggestion bar.
Thanks, now I can swear like a proper pirate again. Arrr!

Does anyone know how to do a quick delete using the stock keyboard? for example if I entered the wrong word i can't just press backspace once to delete the word like i can in swype.

Stock keyboard does the same for me with the backspace key. otherwise double tap and backspace?

Oh right this works. My biggest gripe with the keyboard is that it is not possible to correct a word in the middle of a sentence. For example, if i want to change a word in the middle of a sentence, I can't double click the word and see possible variations of the word. I have to select the word and retype it entirely.
How do you access all the emojis. There are only keywords for a handful of them but there are many more emojis compatible with android.

Great tips. How do i preserve my dictionary after i flash a new ROM?
Hello.
Is it possible to remove selected text from the calendar title.
Example, say the word "SPRING" appears on many of my titles but I want that word removed if so, is that possible?
And what if I want to remove one word and then also switch another one?
Example, change. .. SPRING: GIANTS AT PADRES
into... GIANTS @ PADRES
So "Spring:" is removed and "AT" is switched to "@"
I want to do even more than this, but I'm hoping I'd some one could show me how to do this, If it's even possible, then I could expand it from there.
Thanks.

With the native options in Zooper this is not possible. You'll have to process your calendar events through Tasker for this kind of string reformatting.
hey guys, this question is a bit too broad i guess. i need to create an icon that represent the word extra and not the newspaper, cause it would have been very, very easy. i can't think of an image that could represent others or extra without wordings. this icon is to be used for an android app. so guys if you have any idea, please let me know.
thanks....
Depends a little on your context. Can you elaborate on what is going to be "extra"?
Things which came to mind: ... in case you are actually looking for "more", +1 if you want to order an "'extra" pizza.
what about a system cog image with a large X in the middle or a X but with one of its corners an arrow that might work well
I would go with a simple plus "+" or "+1" if you want to add something with your extra option. Otherwise maybe just three simple dots "..." would do? But yeah, a context would be nice for more suggestions

the things that might appear under/inside that icon is open door and do not disturb. well i've searched about wifi and stuff so i know them, most of the time i am using "common sense" to create icons. i create icons similar to what i've already seen and i've never seen an "extra" icon before.
