Hello
Iam try Samsung S-Voice on my Galaxy ( its not root ) and I need some help on this, when I talk any command like "call Joan" of course the svoice answer and try to call "joan" but always showme I have two contacts with that name and two phone numbers... ( its the same contact its the same number !!! ) just only one contact its with photo ( google contact ) and the other not have a picture...
I search in contact and I see a lot of options : Samsung contacts - Sim Contacts - Facebook contacts - google contacts etc etc etc...
on my contacts always do " contact to show - google contacts " because I don't care any other contacts... however I don't have any contacts of Samsung or face ... maybe I have contacts on my sim card.. but never utilized that contacts...
so, how to ONLY have the option of my google contacts on my phone? so when I use S-Voice always have just only ONE contact to show?
thanks for all
Its best to re organiz your contact s .and get rid of the duplicate names and numbers and that way when you use s voice it will pull the contact name that you want without any confusion and if you two different numbers for a specific contact it will show the two numbers but it want dail because you have two different numbers for the same contact in order for s voice to dail the number you will have to say the number and s voice will then dail the number and yes this works for google voice also

Hide the keyboard and you get all your contacts

what i mean is, the list that comes up in the "phone" menu should be the same as contact one, but its a misture of missed calles, dialed calls and facebook peeps
no, it shouldn;t be.
the call history is at the top as it is on all htc sense phones (Android and WM) so you can immediately dial your last few calls.
otherwise, you start typing the name of the person you want to dial, and up they come nice and quick.
Smart dialling like this has been in winmo since pocket pc 2002. of course they brought it across to android.
however, yes, the facebook stuff is bloody ridiculous.
Only thing that I find annoying is having 3 vesion of a phone number as it syncs Google, Facebook and Phone - surely it should merge new data and not duplicate it? I just want the data from Outlook's address book and then have them linked to Facebook if need be. It was cool that it did it automatically though
i think u can link them up manually
Hello,
I have HTC one X with the viper rom on it. I have linked my contacts to facebook and gmail accounts . After doing a sync between all of these accounts, I am facing a problem. Some of the phone contacts in which I know them ( the way I saved them on phone ) changed according to the names of facebook accounts.
For example, I have a contact named ( Ta ) which I have linked to the facebook account ( Natasha ), after doing this and after making a sync, I no longer can see the ( Ta ) person on my phonebook because now it is named Natash which is confusing.
Another example, I have a contact named ( A ) which holds the number 123456789. I also have a facebook account that has the same number on its information lets name it ( CC) .
Now, When the number 123456798 calls me , the phone says ( CC ) is calling you while I want the phone to display that ( A ) is calling you !!!
How can I solve this problem while still keep linking the accounts.
In the people app, open the contact you want to change, select Edit Contact, and select the name in the top left corner - you'll get a drop-down to choose the name you want to use for that contact.
Edit: that's for the same contact with different names on different accounts. The second example sounds like you've got two different people with the same telephone number; I'm not sure how you'd edit which one shows by default when that phone number calls you. Maybe add the country dialling code to one of the phone numbers, since I assume that will have to be different if they aren't sharing a telephone line.

first problem solved , Thanks :good:
second problem :
indeed , it is like I have two persons having the same number ( one on the phone , and one on facebook ) , the phone Automatically chooses as default to display the name on facebook.
When ever I get a text to my Google voice number (I use native Google messaging app) from someone I know, I can see their name but number has changed. Its kinda annoying because it starts a new chat thread. I end up adding that "weird" number to my contacts to make it work properly. Has anyone been able to figure this out or adding server number to contacts is the only way to make it work?
There is no way around this issue, turn off text from Google voice and just text from the voice app.
When using the standard Messaging app and not the Google Voice app, messages are sent by proxy via a "Google Voice Access Number". The GVA number is that weird number you're seeing. You can call that number to connect to your friend's number, and they will see your GV number on the caller ID. As far as I know that access number is semi-permanent... so you can add it to your address book. It may change after several months at which point the call just won't go through.
To avoid this, disable "Receive text messages on this phone" under the Google Voice settings page from your browser and use the Google Voice app.
I just use the GV SMS Integration app. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mdrtools.apps.gvintegration&hl=en
Works flawlessly. No crazy numbers or anything. I just see their names as if I wasn't using Google Voice.
Quick trick

One thing i do to avoid this problem is save the google voice port number to my contacts i usually text the google voice created number or initiate the text via google voice app to avoid this problem.... hope this helped!
Thanks for all the info guys I really appreciate it.
Hi friends,
As the question above, my F400K always take Contact info from my Sim card.
All my sim's contacts was synced to my Google account long time ago. I can realize this issue because when some one call me or text,the contact name always display with a " /M " and there was no Contact Picture - that mean the phone was taking the contact info on my Sim,not from my Google account like the other phones of mine.
I tried to copy my contact to Phone Memory..but no help . So I have to delete all of my sim contact and the /M was gone and the contact picture in call show up. I was never have to do that on the other Android Phones.
What i can find out was the F400K will take contact info follow this order : Sim => Phone Memory => Google Account. So how can we force it to use Google Account first or only, without deleting Sim Contacts ?
Thanks for reading this
Good day to all! We need your help at the forum this problem and its solution is not found, the following problem: when an incoming call is displayed on the watch only the phone number of the incoming call without a name and photo. In the contact list, contacts there with the name and photo, missed call notification is displayed with the name, number and photo of the contact. By voice command contact watch to make calls on his behalf. All contacts are stored in a Google account. What could be the problem? Perhaps there are third-party programs to accept a call, maybe they will help me. It may need a Root and change system settings. Who can tell.
PS I apologize for my English helped write the message Google translator
