Hey all,
in WM6 there is (on some roms) a slim "sidebar" next to the contact list with A-Z on it.
It helps you navigate quickly. Does anyone know how to activate it? A friend of mine had it but accidentally disabled it, now we cant figure out how to enable it again.
If you do not know what i am talking about, you can see it on this picture (second row, second column):

Thanks a lot.
PS: I tried the search but its kind of hard to find if you dont know what its called.

Hi Cipi,
thanks... it works very well...
To disactivate the old "letter-bar" at the top of the screen you have to click: Menu-->Options-->unflag first option...

nice hint...works now!!!
Thanks
Thanks for the tip.
However, my Random Access bar only works 70% of the time. The rest of the time only a simple scroll bar appears.
It seems to work more often if I launch Contacts then fully exit and re-launch Contacts a second time. Wierd.
Anyone else experience this?
i installed this, but the vertical alpha list bar does not work.
i do not even see the app under program window. do i need to invoke this?
how do i make this work??
Hey,
You know when youre on the phone or the call is incoming you see a photo selected for that particular contact. Well it is kind of small ...
Any way to see a bigger portrait picture on the phone call screen?
If you get photo contacts pro then you can set them up to show in full Screen. check my signature for it.

There you go:

You can download the trial and buy it at that link!
So I thought I'd start a little thread to see what tips & tricks people are discovering about the Desire now that we are getting our hands on them
If you swipe your finger (L to R or R to L) across the middle button then you can scroll through home screens without touching the screen
If you want more options in browser including UAString (Android, Desktop, Iphone etc,) just type in url window "about:debug" (without quotes!) then press enter; it seems nothing happens but if you go into settings all new options are available
I'll be surprised if it hasn't been mentioned before, but a quick way to reboot:
Power button, vol down and press the track pad at the same time.
Download Advanced Task Killer! Applications just stay open once they are activated. I also use the Power Options widget on the main homescreen which is great for quick adjustments to brightness, WiFi and Bluetooth.
I am a new user here so I am not allowed to post outside links yet, but do a google search for "Why You Shouldn’t Be Using a Task Killer with Android" and read the Geek For Me thing about task killers.
anyone here tried to re-arrange the 7 home screens? .. i could swear i saw it in some vid, you put it in "leap" view, and then you hold on of the screens and move it around!!!! ....

If you drag the top bit it tells you your notfications! (where the battery life is).
Hey guys, quick question I'm coming from a HTC Tytn and before that a Touch HD, I used to use S2U2 to lock on the Tytn and like the iPhone style text appearing on the lock screen, can the Desire do that?

"SMS popup" gives you the iPhone like popup whenever you receive an SMS.. Works on lockscreen as well as over any program/app. Unfortunately it doesn't do emails
Alternatively you can change the whole SMS app to chomp or handcent.. Those gives you popups as well.
-e
SMS Popup does not seem to work on my device :-/ I think it might have something to do with Sense UI. Can anyone confirm they got it working on their Desire?
Yup. You can re-arrange the home screens but not by pressing in the big menue but by pressing when your actually on the screens and dragging them accross. Works a charm. Just got mine today and tried it!

Yeah - No issues with SMS Popup.
Been using it for ages now and love it.

Where on the screen(s) are you pressing to do this? The only thing I can manage to do is move individual item (widgets. shortcuts, etc) across different home screens but not the entire screen itself.
Hi everybody!
Is there an application that lets you use lg optimus dual's gestures? I refer to the possiblity to move the cursor, when you are writing, left or right simply by hitting your device on the left or the right side.
Thank you in advance and sorry my english

Bump!
This sounds pretty interesting...
Yes this is possible, actually with a little bit of porting you could use the same app. The only real problem is that the hardware (accelerometer) is different. But it shouldn't be to big of a problem. How usefull this app would be is a second issue. You are aware that it is merely a gimmick and not even very functional on the optimus right?
Hope this informed you enough. If you want someone to develop it for you, just send out a request and donate kindly
Thank you for the explanation, my real problem is how to move between text easily, i red about this possibility but it's not an useful solution... Thank you tho for helping
Btw do you know how to move practically between text?

No problem, Could you elaborate on that? I don't understand what you mean exactly. You press where you want to have the cursor on text? On website its a longpress and then you can drag (and copy search etc) Is this what you mean?
I have some problems while typing a text message, for example, my finger isn't too much precise to choose the right place;
another important problem that i have is when i'm searching on Google: if what i'm searching is longer than the bar, and I'd like to edit the last word, i can't move the cursor too right beside i should tap the "x", that deletes all...
Sorry my English i tried to explain as best as i can, i hope that it's understandable...
10q again for help

Actually I know what you mean, google thing you can solve by making a text selection and draging it to the beginning. For the text problem there isnt really a solution. I got used to it pretty fast and im accurate now. Also the gingerbread keyboard is a bit better when it comes to text selection, if your not using it yet it might be worth giving a try
you can find a flashable package of the keyboard here.
Hope this will help you!
Edit: Text selection in google mobile is indeed not possible. A solution for this could be to use classic google which has a larger text box. (I am using this since the beginning, its actually faster and less buggy, downside is that you have to zoom in and out a bit more)
I already have a gingerbread keyboard, thank you...

Ok good, best keyboard imo. OT: you still want the dual gestures? Could ask some dev's to take a look at it
no i don't think i will, it's not so important, i don't want to bother a dev for so little...
Hahaha, lonely in this thread. We could have almost handled it with pm's
Hello,
I've noticed that I cannot see the time stamps of messages. I'm curious to know if we can enable the time stamps in messages. Or slide the message to the left or right to get the time stamp as it works in iMessage...
Just give the message bubble a tap and you'll see the time stamp.

Doesn't look like anything with root. Can you try factory reset and start again?

At least for the "Korean/Japanese"...
If I'm understanding correctly, try changing the language to English -- drag down notification bar, click the cog, go to System (second option from the bottom), then Languages & Input (selection the topmost option), Language Preferences (topmost option), and move English to the top (hold down 3 lines next to it) and/or click green plus on the bottom of the list and add English (US)....
If I'm understanding correctly, you trying to work your phone when everything is in Asian lettering would make things exponentially more difficult to figure out and troubleshoot...
Good luck to ya and hope this helps...
