Hi guys, anyone here using the standard Sony messaging app ... when you go to "add recipient" (by pressing the three dots ...) to bring up your contacts list, is there any way that I can display only phone numbers?
It is showing every single contact including email addresses and duplicate numbers all on their own separate line. This is really annoying if I want to browse my contacts list, because it is so damn long! Like 400 items to scroll through!
When i go into my contacts via the phone/calling app, it has a bunch of options to "filter" by phone numbers but does not affect how the messaging app displays the contacts.
Anyone else get this issue?

I just got my wife a mytouch slide. Is there any way to make the native facebook syncing only sync facebook people that are in her address book with their picstures and stuff. It does that but even when its not set to snyc anyone else when you go to choose a person to text or whatever it shows her whole facebook friend list of like 400 people.
So is there a way to just have it sync her contacts in her address book and not have everyone from facebook in the list when she goes to text people? cause the only option seems to delete the facebook account from the settings so it doesnt snyc at all or everyone populates it. Thanks for any help.
From the actual Contacts menu (or People menu), press Menu > View and make sure Facebook is not checked in. I have my FB Contacts set to not sync, but their FB pictures show up, and I do not see any of the FB contacts that are not on my Google contacts when I go to select a contact when typing a message...
The way this phones seems to handle its contacts list is horrible.. I have some names up to 5 times from my sim, google and fb very annoying, I just want google, like the g1 used to be

1.) Link your contacts using the "link function" located on the top right corner of each contact.
2.) When in your main contacts view, hit the menu key>view>google. Make sure that its the only one selected.

I do have it like that and that works fine for the contacts app, but when u seard for a name for lets say a new text, it will show every single one individually. Im just going to ask for a SIM thats empty and not sync my FB
The problem with linking accounts that I found...
My ex has a very slutty picture as her facebook pic. I don't want my kids or myself to see that picture when I call/text her. There is an option to choose which picture to use for a contact in the linking page, but it reverts back to the facebook picture whenever it syncs!
I talked with T-mobile and they are aware of the issue and I asked if they could bring it up with HTC. Seems stupid to have a way to choose which picture if it never stays!
Hi all,
I am running a completely stock HTC Desire and I have a really strange annoying problem.
The problem is if I add a new contact, it adds the person, as when I am on "Phone" and tap the numbers to spell their name they appear.
Also if I go into google mail and contacts, I can see the contact.
What I cant see is the contact in the "People" application.
This is really frustrating and I was wondering if anyone had any idea how I can fix this? Just to note, I am adding contacts setting them to my google group exactly the same as I have always done. Im not sure when this started to happen.
Thanks for your time.
When adding the contact via phone, are you ensuring the contact type at the top is a Google one?
When adding the contact via Gmail, are you ensuring the contact is added to teh 'My Contacts' group?
Try this...
Go into your Contacts.
Hit your Menu key and select Display Options.
Select your GMAIL account.
Make sure there are checkmarks in each of the lines, especially "All Other Contacts.
Click Done.

So just got this phone and 2 things are bugging me:
1. Messaging shows ALL my gmail contacts, even the ones I don't really add but gmail adds on it's own. How can I make it show only google PHONE contacts? I already chose the option in the contacts app to show only contacts with phone but it doesn't look like this stick in the messaging app.
2. When I hang up, I get a screen asking to add the number, call again or txt it. Can this screen be removed so it just hangs up?
1. Go to your contacts, hit Menu, go to display options. In "Select contacts to display" open Google and uncheck the groups you do not want.
On my LGOG, there are two apps, Phone and Contacts. In Contacts, I can use the Display option to expand the categories of contacts that are shown and I have set it to show the maximum number of contacts possible. However, in the Phone (i.e., Dialer) app, I am unable to pull up certain names under the Phone app's Contact tab (not to be confused with the separate Contact app). These names freely show in the Contacts app, but are missing from Phone. I cannot find any Display settings in the Phone app. The Contacts tab display in the Phone App says "Phone Numbers > Custom" at the top, but I cannot figure out how to change the "Custom" display.
Does anyone know how to change what contacts are displayed in the Phone (not Contacts) app?
Also, in the Phone app, the Favorites tab displays my contacts as large icons/tiles. Is there any way to make them show up in list view? Again, I see these settings in the Contacts app but not the Phone app. Very frustrating!
Thanks for your help.

Contact listing inconsistent in Groups
I have an HTC HD2. When using a MIUI ROM the contacts are listed pic then name on a single line, same in looking in Groups. When using Jellybean or ICS ROM the contacts are listed name then pic but in the Groups (when looking at contacts) they are listed two pics and names per line. Is there anyway to make the contacts in Groups as single line entries per name ? If not, could that be something to be worked on in future updates ?
When I swipe left on my watch I have another menu. The middle one looks like a contacts menu, but it only lists a couple random people from my Exchange contacts. What generates this list of contacts?
Make them a favorite on your phone.

You can hide exchenge contacts by Chosing what to display in Contacts app.
And favorite few contacts which you want to see in your watch.
