Transfer contacts?

My friend broke his screen on his HTC trophy and he is unable to see anything on the screen. He cannot put in his password to unlock the phone. Does anyone have any ideas on how to transfer the contacts? Cellibrite will not work because the phone cannot be unlocked because the broken screen....

Phone is not unlocked.

He doesn't need to; they will all transfer automatically when he puts his sim card into a new windows phone and logs into his live account associated with his original phone. If he needs to see his contact have him visit his windowsphone.com account and view contacts.
If no sim card, no worries, just sign into new phone using the live id he used on the trophy.

I think that is part of the problem. He never did have a windows live account.

He had to set one up at some point to use the market, built in services like Office & Skydrive, Find My Phone ect. He's either got a "live" or "hotmail" account, and that is where his contacts will be stored. He could have had them sync elsewhere in addition to that (like gmail ect)

He has his replacement phone which is a HTC trophy as well. He has the phone up and going but his contacts are not there. What should he log into to bring up his contacts? Window market, his email account,... sorry for the newb question. I am use to android.

What for email did he use?
Windows live 1st... it is usually required.
Gmail?
Exchange?
Any of these he could have been saving contacts too. Just not pop3 like comcast for example.
Have him enter all of his email accounts that his previous phone used and see what happens after they sync.

Ok. Thanks

[Q] skydrive access on one x

At the initial stop screen on my htc one it asked Me for my skydrive lotion details.
However I can't for the life of me find a widget app or shortcut, pre installed, that links me to my skydive.
I use sorani at the moment and it works very well by I was hoping for something as useable as the box out dropbox apps natively in sense.
Could someone who has figured out how this works please educate a little.
Many thanks
Gurry

[Q] Contact Pictures

Does anyone have the issue of not seeing the contact pictures in third party apps like whatsapp and Handcent SMS?
The pictures are fine in People App but they don't show in other apps.
Anyone with the same issue or a known fix?

Mod or Die

Yeah i did that but didnt help.

I just noticed that if i choose an image other than the facebook picture, then it will show in applications
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

my missus has the one x and has the same problem. i resolved it by downloading "friendcaster" and that allowed the facebook pictures to show in handcent/go sms

Yeah i know but i wanted to see if im not the only one. I am using syncmypix to do the job but i was wondering what might be causing the issue :/
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

apparently an ICS problem, I get the problem on my GNEX too

Yeah or it could be the apps have compatibility isuues with ics. The pictures show fine in people and dialer.

All you need to do is download the app Photo Unlocker. Your Facebook Sense photos are restricted from being used in other apps, but this app unlocks them so they can be seen in all 3rd party apps.
Edit: I noticed this app isn't in the market anymore. I have a titanium backup of it, so if anyone tells me how to get the APK from there, I can post it here.

Yes that's correct

The solutions i found is by using an app called HaxSync.

Just to confirm recent whatsapp has updated and does.pull through contact pictures inc Facebook

I still didnt get the update. Will keep you posted when I do to confirm!
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

Neither can i find any of the mentioned software, nor i received an update for whats app... Can you share the app mentioned on the previous page.
THanks.

Yeah i still havent got the whatsapp update. Heres the link for haxsync:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mots.haxsync&hl=en
Its the only app that worked for me cz i didnt wanna set up friend caster.
Talking about whatsapp does anyone else get the message "try again later" when sending a picture to someone?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

ANy other fix on this then rather than using a 3rd party utility?

Not that i'm aware of!
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

Yeah I have the same problem.
Whatsapp doesn't show contacts (facebook)profile pictures.
Running all the latest Market versions of Facebook, whatsapp en handheld SMS.
There are no more updates so far.
Still no profile pics in whatsapp contacts list.
Anyone has a solution by now?
And dortok, can u upload that app Photo Unlocker please?
Is it possible to do something with Facebook for HTC Sense app, like delete or whatever?? Maybe fixes it?
It says Facebook for HTC Sense version 4.0.2215172619.345324.334711
Or clicking info: Version 1.00.0101.62864
Anyone help us out???

The only solution i have found is to use HaxSync from google play! It works like a charm!
I dont like friend caster since it is an app like facebook so more traffic and more data usage. Haxsync just syncs the pics and you can specify how often.

Monkey nuts!
I just can't get over how crap the stock ICS mail app is. I can't even search my inbox on my Xoom!
Currently using Enhanced Email, but it doesn't have a widget. It does however have ActiveSync & search capabilities.

FYI, K-9 has horrible Exchange support. It only fully supports Exchange versions that are almost 10 years old now (2003).

Not been funny or anything but who in their right mind would give out their details to strangers, especially when it holds important personal photos? Lesson learned I guess.

I've tried emailing it and no response
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

Yeah,i didn't had a problem with him.Gave him the details,he added 50 GB,after i received the mail i immediately changed my dropbox password and ended his session with dropbox (you can do that from the website ) and i didn't had any problems.

I was in the same situation (mailed him an old account to play with) he also changed password and email, the only thing u can do is contact dropbox (support is sloooooooow)
U got pm
InsertCoined from my bricked One X

Ok,i've read some posts from here and i don't understand some things.If you change your password don't you instantly receive an email from dropbox with a link in it (the link dirrecting you to the password management section of dropbox)? And don't the same thing apply with the email?

He asks you to change your password.....he changed the email associated to the account and then rechanged the password
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium

And Dropbox doesn't send you and email regarding this?I mean,if they send an email regarding the password with a link to retrieve the password,why wouldn't they do the same with the email?
The "change email" option that Dropbox offers i don't agree with it,i mean,email shouldn't be changed,honestly,or if so,they should make up a better prottection system if they allow you to do this.Anyway,i think you should contact Dropbox team to see how to solve this (but i doubt that they will do something about it).
I guess i was lucky .

The only thing that dropbox did, is sent an email...
Your email adress has been changed from... to ...
No confirmation link....
Safety first... lol
