Anyone know how to add groups in s task? There is an option for group but "default" is the only option.
Also, it let's me choose to add tasks to "my tasks" on my Gmail, but it's not there when I add it. So I guess it doesn't sync at all.

My understanding is that it does not sync with Gmail. Not sure why Google hasn't made a native app yet, but I've had no issues using 3rd party apps to sync my tasks with Gmail. Gtasks is a good free alternative. I currently use Tasks by team task.

I just flashed Cyanogen and so far it seems awesome, but is there an easy way to import people's facebook pictures to use for my contacts like sense has?
Also, is there a way to get sprint's visual voicemail working on it?

Scroll the the bottom of the first post in this thread. There you'll find the Sprint voice mail apk.

Thank you for that! Any ideas on the facebook?
Also, are there any other kernels besides snap that work with cyanogen? I can't seem to find a stable setup.
for facebook pictures: http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.nloko.android.syncmypix
free app that works well
facebook and twitter are syncing with contacts in cm6 now, not sure about the contact pictures. i haven't really tested it out.
contacts sync works in cm6...works fine on mine. works the best if you do first and last names in your contacts, it makes it earier for the facebook program to match the contacts

Do you have facebook contacts appearing in your contacts, and linking with regular contacts?
If for some reason a contact is using a different image than facebook, open that contact and scroll to the area of the contact with the facebook data, if you click on the picture from facebook it will prompt you to use that image
Anyway to link contacts. Every time I use a CM Rom, I end up with 600 contacts most of them doubles. One being a FB contact and the other being the actual contact stored in the Google Cloud. I love the roms, but this is very upsetting.
Yes you can link your Facebook contacts. First go into your Facebook app, hit menu and you should be able to sync Facebook.contacts.
From there, go to your contacts, select a contact, hit menu to edit contact, and you should see an option to 'join' - this will let you link your contact to their Facebook profile. Also, after linking the contact, you can choose to use their Facebook photo or leave it on their default photo if you have one.assigned.

you can only do this in a sense rom. with cm6 and facebook you can only choose to sync all fb contacts or sync only existing contacts
Thanks man. That worked like a charm!
Does anyone know of a better contacts manager? Hopefully one that can show google groups. I would really like the ability to link my Facebook friends with my contacts, sort of like the way the HTC Sense and Moto Blur does it.
I don't know if there's one that does what you want, but there is "Contacts GroupU" that works with Groups, and "Star Contacts" that is more of a stock replacement. I use both.
I may not fully understand your question but you can add your facebook contacts through the contacts settings. I did it on accident and my contacts were flooded with everyone in my facebook friends. If that is what you are looking for, you do it through contacts}settings}display options.
If this isn't what you are, good luck.

The stock contacts can be linked with facebook and twitter, just sign in to the apps and there are options to sync your contacts. If they do not automatically sync you can manually link the contacts, contacts > edit contact > menu > join.
I do think sense did a better job of automatically matching contacts than the stock contacts app on Froyo, I had to manually link more contacts on the G2 than on the Mytouch Slide.
The default contacts does it.. But there is a app in the market "phonebook 2.0" you should check it out

hahahaha best joke ever
Contacts+
Contacts+ is fairly good contact manager.

I like that everything is synced up to gmail. But I dislike the lack of options as far as how to organize the contacts.
I basically have 3 groups of contacts: Friends/family, business and food.
By default when i open the list of contacts, i'd just like the friends/family group to be displayed. I'm kind of surprised that i can just swipe left or right to switch between groups. Failing that, can i just set one group as the default group to display? I've poked around in the settings and so far haven't found anything like that.
Htc sense does that by default and very good too. Create a group for the contact groups such as all contacts. In the contact edit page page specify the group for that contact such as "all contacts". In the sense people widget select the contact group you want displayed in that widget and all contacts belonging to that group will only be displayed. Enjoy.
Is there any way to do that when i go into the main contacts app itself? i.e. when i click on the 'people' button. Can i have that screen default to a certain group?

Not when you click on the people app but definitely when using the people widget.
ok. Guess i'll just stick two widgets on a screen then for the two groups i use the most.
thanks

Hi,
I have installed me another calendar app (aCalendar). When i get notifications in the topbar my phone uses the build in calendar. How can i avoid this and use aCalender?
Thanks
Ateshga
You mean you're getting both default calendar and aCalendar notifications at the same time?
Go into the default Calendar app and select the account it's synced too and uncheck the sync box. Then it'll stop notifying you because it won't be synced to new events.
You need to clear defaults for the gmail app. then you can select which app to do the action you want next time you click it.

Doesnt work here.
Is my calender app perhaps the problem? It uses the build in calendar so it might not handle the notifications...
Am i correct? Dont i have to use another app? Which one do you use?
Thanks in advance
@martonikaj no i just get the googlecalendar notification. Sorry overread your question in first place...
Bye
Hi
It doesnt work till today. I tried several calendars now (jorte, quick and lately business calendar) The problem remains The Same: when i pull down Thema notification bar where The event notification pops up and select the event The phone jumps in the Google calendar.
Is this an ICS problem?
What am i doing wrong?
Please help.
Thx
Ateshga
Whichever app is providing the notification will open when you click. You need to set up notification with your desired app and disable notification in the unwanted app - of course, having said that, I'm not sure those options are available, so it may just be easier to freeze the undesired app instead...
Hi i now found my failure: i got what i paid for. Free apps mostly dont support notifications.
I now bought an app (business calendar) and all is fine now.
Seems i have to learn a bit more about the android world.
Thx for the help i got ...
A.
I started using Business Calendar. I removed notifications for the default calendar, but I forgot to remove sync. The notification bar would never clear, now I think I know why. Thanks martonikaj.
I'm running 4.1.2. When you you create your account on the GN, you can select which feaures you want to sync (i.e. email, calendar, contacts, etc). Is there a way to change the synce times? Or does any know to change the synce timing? Or mabe there's an app for that?
Thanks in advance.
Acct sync question...

i use widget and toggles and i sync- all i want- when i want: pushing widget or toggles in sysbar.
or you can use many app like AutomateIt Pro or macro app wich can do tasks when something preordered happen (i.e. daytime, wifi etc.)
i you mean this.
