Is there any possibility for contacts to display with extra information like "job" or other tag? If you use redmi note 8 pro in work and you have lots of names than it is very difficult to find right person. Unfortunately I see only names and surnames
Please help me

Press dial button, go left to contacts, in contacts press that round circle with letter ,in my case the letter is A, and after that you will see edit contact, press that and you will have a lot of options like other MI phones have..

I've been using my Artemis for a week right now, and I must say I love the overall system !
One thing looks crappy to me: contacts.
I find it very difficult to dial using one hand only (expecially when driving).
I have hundreds of contacts (will be thousands in the near future)... figure it out using it from my car with no stylus looking for Doe, John:
- tap on contacts
- tap twice on "CDE" ... oh.. why is so damn small ?
- use the wheel to reach Doe, John
- press the blue button twice ... oh again ... this thing works as a joystick, and if not pressed correctly you will call your old aunt Dorothy in place of mr Doe !
So, I'm kindly asking to you WM5 gurus:
- is there an alternative way of doing all this process (keep in mind thousand contacts, so dont't tell me to use voice recognition)
or
- is there a way to make the "#ab","cde","fgh" buttons bigger ?
- disable the joystick feature and use just the wheel ?
Thanks in advance,
G.
There is the "Intellidial" on the phone pad that allows you to dial Doe with just 3 presses of the phone keys Press the green button to go into phone function. Press on 3,6,3 successively. Even before you complete this, the name would be shown on the screen. If there are more than one number stored under this name you can use the scrollball left-right to see them. After this just press the scroll ball to dial. Simple.
It would save you a lot of heartache (and less "spam"onthis site) if you would take some time to search and read this and other forums

wow ! Simpler than expected
Thanks !
HTC home "Favorite People" - names are cut to a few letters only. Any fix possible?
Does anyone know if there is a way to modify some registry or *.ini settings to display at least some more letters from a last name so the contact can be recognized?
The problem is that when you assign names from contacts list to Favorite People tabs, the font is so small and room is so little that it displays only a few first letters of a name so you can't figure out whose number is there in case you have same last name for a few persons in your contacts. Try it, and you see what I mean. Here is a screenshot from my Favorite people list. As you can see, two different contacts named "Katia Cell" and "Katia Work" are displayed only with words "Katia..." So it's impossible to figure out which contact is which.
My personal opinion is that it's needed to reduce number of people down to six (from ten) so there will be more room to display letters. Any advice appreciated. Thanks.
Hello,
If you put the two phone numbers on the same contact, there will be a small icon in the upper left corner to differentiate cell phone and land line number.
This Favorite People option is to use with the contact who has contact's picture. I am using it with picture contact and its fine. For mobile, home or work an icon appear with the picture if you have the same contact with all the different information.
I got it. Works good with a picture contact. Thanks.
I have a question, suppose if i have to search some contact name on the xperia.
Suppose contact name is Jones...
Like in normal mobiles if you press J and then O, the contacts will show all then name starting with JO,
but in xperia if i press J and then O it start showing contacts first starting with J, and then later if i press O, it shows all the contacts which have O in them.
why is that so? i just want that i should be able to search the contacts as we do normally in other mobiles?
Any suggestion.

yaa am having the same problem some one pls help
Lets wait, and see if some senior member or xda xperts come up with some solution for this basic need.
I don't understand the problem at all. When I type J and later O the contacts app shows contacts starting with JO.
Or do you mean the scrollbar? That is in any case only a scrollbar.
Maybe i am not in explaining it properly, Let me do again
Suppose i have 20 contact start with the alphabetic chracter ' A'
Ali
Ahmed
Amir
Aly
Aliza
Adnan
Appz
.
.
.
.
.
and alot more starting with 'A'
Now if i have to search for the number for "Appz", in contacts i will press "A"
and the xperia will show all the contacts starting with "A", but to reach the contact "Appz" quickly, in other symbian mobiles if i will press "Ap" it will directly take me the contact Appz.
But what happen in xperia, if i press A, it will show me all the contacts with A, later if i press P, it will start showing the contacts starting with P, so its not easy to find the particular contact, especially if you have 20,30 contacts starting with the same alphabet, and to reach the contact you are looking for is not easy task.
So i am looking for this option to reach the contact quickly. I hope this i explain in better way.
Thanks
this option is already there in xperia, in the top of the contacts page there is one text box, click there and enter the characters which you are looking for(like Ap..in your case)
I didn't meet this problem ever since I bought my X1

I also have never encountered any problem. It's easy to just slide out the keyboard or press the software keyboard button.
Still, when using the scrollbar (the line with the letters aligned to the right) it doesn't add up the letters forming a new word or name.
Is there any way to change the order of people I've added to the "Favorites" list on the "People" tab on the TP2 ... short of deleting them all and then adding them back in the reverse order of how I want them to appear on the screen?
they are in alphabetical order

Cool, so all I need to do is ask my friends to change their names based on where I want them on my speed dial list
Seriously ... so the situation is even worse than I thought it is ... are there any hacks to let me arrange them as I wish?
Hi,
Is there a way to chage the list of Contact List. I mean i have a large contact list. I add company name, job or title to my contacts. But when someone call me on the screen, it shows only name and surname by default. (Normally). But i have a lot of X Y on my list. I couldn't figure out until i answered the call. And i dont want to add company name or title to the name, surname fields.
Is there a simple way to change this like X(Name) + Y(Surname) + Z(Company) like a string concat or something.
I dont want to use 3rd party application but if you have something on your mind. Feel free to answer here.
Thanks.
