Hi All,
Is there any way that i can get the names and the numbers to display as i hit the keys in the dialer?[Currently only the names are shown]
The earlier Jasjam rom there was an option to have the names and numbers to show up as you type.
Many thanks for you help with this,
G
My current version: 2007-05-07 RUU_Hermes_WWE_3.30.0.9 [LVSW Edition]
normaly is should show you the neames and below one number for the contact you want... when you scroll to your contact... with left / right pad you can scroll through the numbers for that contact...
Nope, Its only showing me the names but no numbers
Is there any option that i need to change to get this working?
Sounds like you need to reinstall the HTC smart dialer. Check the wiki under the cabs section (and elsewhere). Maybe that will fix what ails you.
WM6 Dialer Names+Numbers - Settings for Black.
This one has buggged me for a while also, however it's easy to fix.
Simply use "Pimp my Black" and enable the 3G Video Dialer. Click bling, soft rest and you now have the older smart dialer which shows names and #'s. It also allows you to use the scroll wheel to quickly access history and speed-dial.
I'm also running LVSW's ROM - ever since I installed the HTC Smart dialer 2.2 on the wiki cab page I can't find the option to enable the names/numbers on the main screen at all. It's just a blank space with the numpad.

MIUI for Beginners
Source: http://en.miui.com/a-10.html
Already flashed MIUI ROM? OK, pick up your phone now, let’s start our happy journey of MIUI ROM.
The first step: selecting apps
Various apps will greatly enrich your cell phone, so firstly let’s select the apps to your taste. Use the Android Market and download what you would like. If you are using a backup app and restoring apps from a previous ROM, only restore the apps and not the data. Otherwise that will create a lot of force close issues.
Tip: How to copy files from the computer to the phone? First connect your phone to your computer via data cable, pull down the notification panel from the top of the phone, click “USB connected”, and then click "Turn on USB storage”.
After copying, do not forget to select the option of “Turn off USB storage”, otherwise "File Manager” in the phone will not be able to find the sd card, as it is being occupied by the computer.
Now I have a lot of apps, how to put them in order?
All apps successfully installed are listed on the desktop, however, they may not be in the order you want, how to put them in order?
Long press an app icon and then you may move it freely. When it is moved to the screen border, the screen will automatically switch to the next screen.
How to add a screen? Use two fingers to pinch on the desktop to enter screen thumbnail mode. Then you may add or delete screens.
How to delete an app? Long press the app icon you want to delete, drag it on top of the trash box and click OK to delete it.
The second step: let's make your phone different.
A phone without style is nothing remarkable, so let’s make your phone different!
Changing wallpaper: Click Menu button on the desktop, select “Change Wallpaper” to replace the wallpaper. In addition to the existing wallpaper in the phone, thousands of pieces of wallpaper are also available online.
Changing theme: Themes make great changes to your interface style. Click “Theme Manager” on the desktop to select the theme you like. Also, more online themes are available online.
Selecting ringtones and more: click “Settings” on the desktop to set call and notification ringtones. In “Personalization” under “Personal” tab, you may find more options.
The third step: it’s time for some advanced techniques!
Well, you are no longer a beginner now, so let’s learn some advanced techniques.
Adding widgets on the desktop: press the Menu button on the desktop, select "Edit Mode", and then click the icon on the upper right corner to access the interface of “Add Widgets”. Choose your favorite widget on the top, and then drag it to the screen below.
Using folders to manage desktop apps: in the interface of “Add Widgets”, drag [Folder] to the desktop. You may drag multiple apps into folders to classify them. After opening the folder, you may click the edit icon in the upper left corner to rename the folder.
Using toggles panel to improve efficiency: drag the notification panel down from the top, click "Toggles" to go to the toggles panel (It goes to the toggles panel in default of notice.) On the panel are listed the most commonly used toggles, you may click to quickly enable or disable a toggle. Long press on the icon will launch the settings for that icon.
Guest mode: enable the “Guest Mode” toggle in the panel, and your calls and text messages logs will be hidden, and all installed applications cannot be removed. You may have a try when you need to show your phone to guests or children.
Importing contacts or binding accounts: you may use some apps to import a batch of contacts, or bind Google account directly in "Settings"> "Personal"> "Accounts & Sync Settings" to sync contacts at any time.
How to print screens? Press "Menu" key and "Volume Down" key at the same time to print a screen. The printed image is saved in the directory of MIUI in the SD card.
How to copy files from the computer without using the data cable? In case of a Wi-Fi connection, enter “File Manager” on the desktop, select the tab of "Remote Administration" to start the service, and then you will get an address. Enter the given address on the computer, then you may copy files without using a data cable!

You should. Like I've said before, after trying many many ROM's, I've come to the conclusion that MIUI is EVERYTHING that I want in my phone and there will be no looking back to any other ROM's out there.
OMG OMG OMG official miui..... not a port....
Does the official rom still have the theme engine problem? I didnt see it in the changelog, and it was the only thing keeping me from using the miui ports.

Miui Rocks....it was the first Rom that truly set itself apart from CM roms and the like. It was my dd for a while but updates started coming out that required full rlashing, it became pointless. It seems that they are a lot more stable now....might come bqck and check them out again.
OP incredible job on the detail of your posts. One car certainly tell that you are not just theming and calling it a new tommy....cheers!

does MIUI have a good calendar/agenda app? I can't find one that beats Sense or Go Launcher EX at the moment.
Agenda Widget Plus and Pure Grid Calendar aren't as smooth or as well integrated =/
So beautiful and so tempting but it seems that it will never ever manage to utilize the functionality of the G2's Quick Keys =(

Same. Also does that when changing ringtones for notifications, though they do seem to apply anyway.

Should be fixed with today's (Friday) build.
With all due respect, what is the benefit of an 'official' MIUI ROM over any of the currently-maintained ports such as OsiMood? It does not seem like we are going to get G2-specific features like Quick Keys or Tab working.
Is the performance any better than these 'unofficial' ports?

This being official, I would assume that they are going to look at the g2 specific features a bit more?
Maybe I'm just being optimistic
Ima give the 3 roms a whirl, finally.
My phone number: Unknown
One issue I've noticed with this as well is that it can't read my phone number from the SIM card. That can cause issues with certain apps that require it (like TikL, for example).
Menu > Settings > System > About Phone > More information > Status
For me, that shows "My phone number: Unknown". And yes, I am sure my phone number is present on the SIM.
Is it possible to get into the registry and select which apps to add to Quick Actions? I would like to add OneDrive and other apps, beside the typical system functions there.
The problem is, I'm not sure where to look for this. Has anyone achieved this before?
Yes,me. Change the uri.
ms-onedrive:
Restart the phone after.
ms-settings: is the "All Settings icon, presumably?
How do I find the icon for OneDrive?
Dont know, change the uri with one of these: HKCU\Software\Classes.
I've come to notice that, per this thread, you should be able to edit your QuickTiles / QuickSettings / QuickPanel / Notification Toggles / whatever you want to call them, they have many names. with a SQlite editor by going in Settings Storage
I personally used that process about a year ago and can confirm it works just fine, but there's one small problem. in MM there's no databases in Settings Storage and I've run out of ideas on where to look for manually editing.
I've had big problems with GalaxyTools (on MM) after using the "Enable All Toggles" feature so I'm avoiding that at all costs.
the toggles I'm missing are hotspot and data. there are non-root apk's out there that can restore hotspot, data, and a couple other toggles (one at a time) but they are designed for a specific device and on the Note 4 it works but makes some others, and sometimes all toggles disappear -- which requires a nandroid to restore.
can anyone offer some insight on the new location of the toggles settings storage location?
Yeah, same problem here. I am also looking for a solution. The fixes from Lollipop no longer work. Really annoying that networks remove this important toggle.
