Has anyone else come accross this ???

Inesoft Phone Missing Tabs

Hello All,
Can anyone using Inesoft Phone tell me if they are getting all the option tabs. Installed a trial copy of software and there are tabs missing in the Address Book options menu. If I select Address Book, Menu, then Options, the only tab available is "View". The tabs Phone, General & Phone&Dial don't exist. I believe they're supposed to be more tabs visible because more are shown in the manual. How do I get these tabs to show? I tryed several device soft resets, on/offs, and reinstalls. But I still am unable to get all four tabs to show up. Please help. My trial days are running out. Sent 2 support requests to Inesoft with no response. I'm running WM 6.0 Pro.
THANKS!!

Settings don't stick

I keep having to reset my phone preferences (such as my ring- I only want it to ring once) but it keeps resetting the settings to the default for the phone.
Is anyone else having this happen on their Sprint TP2?

***bump***

are you changing your ring settings through the touch flo 3d shell (settings>sound) or going through the traditional windows mobile settings (settings>sounds & notifications)?
My ring settings stick for both methods (or my phone says). I don't get calls enough for me to notice if settings stick.
maybe your ringtone is very long, so it sounds like it's ringing more then once?
I do experience a setting that I want to stick but doesn't. when you open phone, you choose menu > view. Default is "calls and contacts" but I only want "all calls". I can choose it and it'll filter, but when I close phone and reopen, it'll reset to "calls and contacts". =/

Thanks, Tone.
The ring is not long- it's an old fashioned phone ringer. The actual setting changes fron "Ring once" to "Ring."
I am setting it under the options on the dialer screen. I haave also gone through "Settings"; makes no difference.

So I recently hard reset my phone due to some other issues, but I tested if your problem again, and the settings are still fine on my end.
Out of curiosity, do you know what Manila version you have (along with what phone version)?
Mine is Sprint, Manila version 2.1.38416.1.
You can find the manila version with Reg Edit and go to "
HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila"
String Value "Version" tells you the Manila version.
If you don't have reg edit, or don't know how to do it, that's ok, just phone version should be enough. I've been discovering from customizing my phone and researching on XDA, that Manila may have different bugs depending on what Manila version you have (and most likely a different Manila version is attached with different carriers).

Same Manila version.
Has been hard reset twice, but the problem persists...

oh boo, that sucks. if you have a phone replacement/repair plan with sprint, I say go to them and tell them the issue. I always ***** at sprint with whatever problem that can't be solved. it's a defect in the software/hardware and if you have the replacement/repair plan, they won't charge anything for repairs. and if they can't repair it themselves, they'll send out a request for a 'new' phone replacement. sometimes its brand new, sometimes its refurbished. depends what they have in stock.

I can not get my phone to filter contacts by just device contacts it always defaults back to all contacts making me have dupes. Anyone else have this or know how to make the setting stick?

this is what I do (if you have contacts on your sim).
enter phone app (call button).
press "contacts" (left soft key) to open contacts (manila shell).
press "menu" (right soft key).
choose "view".
listed is "all", "contacts" and "sim". choose "contacts" to list only device stored contacts.
settings stick for me. but I don't have contacts on my sim card to verify. however, the setting itself doesn't change back.
if you go to contacts (windows app version), I believe you can't do this, because there is no option for it.
this is one reason why I think manila is kind of retarded. it just covers up windows mobile, but there are still multiple front ends / GUI for the same things.

no real help, but i set my phone to ring and vibrate, and every now and then it reverts to just ring!!!

I was having the same problem until I noticed
the Single Volume control. It is above the Phone
controls on the settings panel. I turned it off
and now the phone ring settings stay the way I
set them.

it's a known issue for Sprint TP2's. it will be fixed with ROM update to WM6.5. in the meantime, check out this thread http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=83378&highlight=jfrancisny&page=4. Post #36 fixed it for me.

[Q]How can i hide sim contacts in "Phone"

Yesterday i imported all my sim contacts to phone because seems the only way i can customize(link with facebook, change photo, etc) but now when i press the "phone" button i can see my contacts 2 times, sim and phone which is annoying...even if i unchecked SIM contacts in "Peoples", so i guess "Phone" and "Peoples" are 2 different apps. Anyway my question is if there is any way to hide SIM contacts from contacts ?
btw using htc sense.

in People | Menu | View | Uncheck SIM
HTH

Hey, thx for reply but you didn`t understood, il show some screens ->
even if i unticked the sim, i still see sim contacts when i press the "PHONE" button but in PEOPLE it`s okay so that`s why i said i think that People is a different app than "Phone" ( middle button on htc sense)

This is not currently possible in HTC Sense AFAIK.
Quite annoying really, as I would prefer to keep a backup of my contacts on the SIM card.

I know the problem. It has been a bug since 2.1, possibly even before.
Used to pi$$ me off on my Hero and now my DHD too
HTC need to fix it.

I'm suffering from this and a similar problem with the 'phone' menu in relation to facebook contacts.
I too like to keep a backup of my contacts on the sim (or preferably only on the sim), but when going through the 'phone' button on the home screen it shows them no matter what.
When I have a facebook account registered in my accounts and sync, whether its the Facebook app or the Facebook for HTC Sense account it'll sync all of my facebook friends over into my 'phone' list no matter what options I change - and believe me I've tried everything!
In an ideal world I would like to be able to have the 'phone' list only show the contacts from my sim (or copied to the phone and the sim contacts hidden) and only update the Facebook information (picture / status) for the people I have linked a facebook account for.
I'm really hoping that this is rectified in 2.3 as while it by no means makes the phone useless, it makes the 'phone' button - currently the largest button on my homescreen - not user friendly.
Grim.

Dear RobE9 et al, HI!
Did anyone find a solution to this? - It's currently annoying me too. I agree that it's totally uncomfortable and I haven't yet found a work around.
I will start playing with different ROMs if there is no solution.

Guys I Think Its Solved in Sense 3.0 Android 2.3.5 Just Do As Told And Then Rebbot Your Phone

Silly Question - re: Contacts

Hey all. I hate to ask, as this seems.. pretty absurd, but..
How do a add a contact to my phone book, WITHOUT having to specify "which google account to link it to"? Years ago (3?) on my Fascinate (Galaxy 1), I remember seeing a "Phone Only" option on that pop-up selector, but I don't now. (And haven't seen it for a long time..)
I'm on a CM variant ROM, if that matters, too.

When you add a contact on the top look closely and you will see a menu in that menu it gives the option to save to device or sim card or Google account. Yours menu likely says Google right now so press in the lower right side of that menu where you see things are being saved to google and it will give you other options like device or sim card. You will see a small shaded corner that's where you press to get the menu and options. I hope this helps. Its located directly on top when you press to add a contact. No question is a stupid question and hope this clears it up for you. So you have three choices to save to device sim or google.once you choose the option the contacts will be speed to that option. Best wishes.
