Is there any way to add in an appointment in the calendar a reminder that show on screen a contact number or any other phone number.
For example "20:30 call James 98334455" so that if you push in the number it calls inmedeatly?
I think it would be very usefull...at least for me.
Thanks
I'm running Mynn Warm 2.2
I have set up a contact with my email address and phone number as "ME" so i can easily send myself a txt or email for capturing information. I can see the contact in google contacts under My Contacts. I cannot however send an email or txt message to that contact in my messagin app, either default or Handcent, and i cannot send an email to that contact because "ME" doesn't show up as a valid contact when i type ME in the "to" field. Can someone help me figure out how to have my phone recognize ME as a valid contact and be able to send myself txts and emails to this contact?
I'm wondering if it may ahve something to do with the "My Contact Card in the Sense rom???
Just create another contact with your name and info that should work.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
On the Epic's Messaging app, I noticed if I type on the "To:" field none of my facebook contacts show up at all. But then i go to the actual Contacts app and click on their contact and it has the message option. If I click it, It'll send the message and everything but instead of showing their name in the thread it just shows the phone number.
The only fix I've had so far is re add the number and link it to their facebook. But It would take too long to do that for all contacts.
Any way of fixing this?
Hello,
I have a weird issue with the SMS app for my HTC one (M8) as well as my friend's phone!
when I receive a message, the name of the person who sent the message to me does not show up in the sms app, instead the number is shown (basically as if the sender's number is not saved in my address book). however, after about 15-20 minutes the name will be shown.
to note, both of us have our contacts saved in Google, so all the contact addresses are synced with google.
anyone else facing the same issue?
anyone knows a possible solution??
Thanks & regards,
Abdullah
Maybe go into app settings for mms and contacts and delete all data to reset to default. Reboot then resynch contacts.
Many of my contacts contain just one phone number, their mobile. Then WhatsApp identifies them and adds its own contact. These two contacts are merged and when viewing the contact I see only one number, as expected. However, apparently internally the G3 lists the contact as having 2 duplicate numbers. This confuses apps that try to automatically choose a default number to call (specifically, Conigri contacts widget). I can also see this in the quick contact popup. The contact shows with two entries of the same number. I can't work around this by choosing one of these as the default, because the contact details show just a single number. I tried to remove the number, which initially works as the WhatsApp number becomes the default, but then WhatsApp syncs, sees the contact no longer has a number and deletes its contact entry leaving me with a contact with no number.
Note that I previously had a Galaxy S5 and had no such problem there (so it is not a basic Android problem I guess).
I tried googling for the issue, but couldn't find it. How can I solve this?
