When I compose a text message and start typing on the recipient, it's showing me email address etc, how can I turn that off and just show their phone numbers? Thanks.
One thing you might try. Go into your contacts app. Tap the 3 dots in the top right and at the bottom of the pop up, select "Contacts settings". The option of "Only contacts with phone numbers" should now be visible. Put a check in the box and see if this helps.

I did that but it's still showing up the other contacts when I compose a new text message.

Hi.
Does anyone know how to add or remove items in the menu which appears when you tap and hold on a persons name? I have items on there which are not used by me. And since I installed TomTom the "send text message" option has gone.

For some reason, when I select the "New" tab on the Messaging screen, it takes me to a screen where I'm asked to select text message, my email accounts, or SMS/MMS. When I select "Text message", it takes me to a listing of all my text messages, but when I select "New", it just hangs up with "Text messages" replacing the "Start" logo on the top left corner. Neither new nor "reply" to any of the messages work. I've performed multiple soft resets. Any help would be appreciated.
Hi all, these are the last tweaks that are not automated on my Tilt 2 when I flash a new ROM. Does anyone know where the setting is to change these? I have a provision XML for Gmail but I don't think those two settings can be changed through the provision file can they?
I suspect these may be buried in a data file somewhere and unaccessible, but I thought I would ask. Thanks!
1. "Attempts before giving up" -- Go into Text Messages/All Messages/Menu/MMS Options, set "attempts before giving up" to 4
2. "Send/Receive when I click send" - Setup GMail - Go to Inbox, Menu/Tools/Options/click *Gmail, Click Send/Receive Schedule, click Advanced Settings, Yes, Turn off "Send/Receive when I click send".
3. "Save attachments to storage card" - In the Gmail Inbox, go to Menu/Tools/Options, click Storage, and select to "Save attachments to storage card".
4. "Show Next Message" - In the Gmail inbox, click Message at top, click "Show Next Message", and turn off "Display Account Picker".
5. Location Service enabled - On the Settings Tab, click Location, turn on Location service.
how do you change the email notification tone??? its driving me cazy and i cant seem to figure out how or where...
Do this...
Click on the menu button while in Gmail (this is for Gmail, I don't use the included email service)
Go to Settings
If using more than one Email account select the account you want to make changes to
Scroll to the bottom of the settings list
Select "labels to notify"
Select inbox or priority inbox whichever you use (you can set up each to have different notifications)
A popup box will appear
Place a check on the email notifications if it isn't already checked
Select ringtones
Choose whatever ringtone you may want and hit ok
on the popup select ok
you have now set your gmail to whatever ringtone you may want
If you have any problems let me know.
Thank you very much that worked!

Your welcome, and I'm glad that it worked for you
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.
