hi i have a problem here

I use to save new contacts in the HD7, assuming it will update the HOTMAIL contacts database when i sync the account

but now I look that it doesnt sync the contacs to my HOTMAIL account and also it erase the contacts (from HD7) that i dont have in the HOTMAIL account

how do i can solve this?

i mean, i dont want to be updating HOTMAIL contact list one by one....

WP7 is starting tu upset me
[HD7 General] jimbonics:
Is hotmail the only email account you have it set up for? Exchange, Gmail, anything like that?

Either way, go to Setting --> Email and Accounts -->Windows Live and see what is set up to sync.
[HD7 General] el_ben2:
I have 2 hotmail accounts one for the contacts that i dont use for email

and one for the email...

but in no one update the contacts...

in the "primary" (Contacts) one... it only have the option to sync email
[HD7 General] prjkthack:
When you Edit a contact, it should give you an option to choose which account the contact you want to edit is from, provided that you have multiple contacts linked up and sync'd to multiple accounts.

If you only have 1 account that sync contacts, your phone should automatically be editing that contact on that 1 account, and it should update to the server almost immediately.

If you have no accounts that are syncing contacts (including no initial Windows Live ID tied to the phone), then your contacts will save to your device.

At least thats how it is supposed to be working.

I've never had any issues syncing to my Hotmail Contacts account. It has worked flawlessly since day 1.
[HD7 General] Audio:
I've never had a any luck syncing contacts to my hotmail account. I even lost 75% of them cos i got frustrated and decided to flash my phone regardless.

My friend uses hotmail to sync his contacts and he was saying yesterday something about him having to log on to his hotmail account on a desktop pc before his contacts would sync. I'll try and find out more about what he meant cos it didn't make much sense to me.

I use my gmail account to sync contacts now and I must admit it's been flawless. ever contact I create on my phone gets synced to my gmail account. Who'd have thought that would work better than MS's own hotmail? :rolleyes:

Hi,

I have a LG KU9500 CYON (Currently locked to SK Telecom Korea)

Would appreciate it if someone can point / help me to the following:

1) Unlock so I can it with our local Telco in the Philippines

2) Root

I already tried the following:

1) Locate is IMEI, but all are hidden, already all those *# commands I read in the forum but to no avail.

When inserting another SIM it does not prompt the message the I need an unlocking code.

It's showing this message on the screen after it finishes booting "Check the USIM card is installed. Cell phone function is limited. Outgoing calls are only.

Any help really appreciated . . . I have two of these phones from Korea.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rodolphe123:
Good morning.

I wonder whether it is an Android problem, a number format problem, a language problem (Nexus S is my first Android device ; language French) : I can't get a click-and-dial fonction in email.

I frequently used that in Windows Mobile to call directly somebody, and it was very useful. The only way I found for now is CopyNDial app, which needs to first select the number line.

Any suggestion to activate this very useful click-and-dial fonction in email (as in Calendar for example) ?

Thanks
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
i know in SGS it has that function build in

but seems like stock Android on the SNS doesn't seem to have that option

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WheelieBin:
Hey guys,

Hoping someone can help out here, although I'm guessing I will need to do this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=991072

My phone has been prompting for the last 36 hours or so to do the OTA update which I had been putting off due to wanting to retain root (done with SuperOneClick) and not having time to follow the instructions for that. I had wireless turned off last night, and this morning when I turned it back on it downloaded the update without asking, but still asked before attempting to install. It's been asking me every hour since and I've said 'Later' every time.

Anyway, I stepped away from my desk for half an hour at work this afternoon and came back to find my device boot-looping. I don't expect anyone at work would have touched it, I just don't know what led up to this behaviour. I get the Motorola animation, then the AT&T "Rethink Possible" animation, and then the screen goes blank and the LED blinks red about 120 times at about 3 times the speed of a normal notification and then it starts over again.

The only reason I'm concerned about doing the SBF flash is that this is a SIM-Unlocked device on Telstra network in Australia and I really don't want to loose wifi functionality. Other than that I'm quite comfortable doing so. The phone had only been rooted, I hadn't done the deodex ROM or any mods.

Does anyone have any suggestions? :confused:
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drock212:
Seems like if it did try to install it failed somewhere not allowing for full boot... have you tried pulling the battery also try and find out if it is running 1.5.7 also try booting in recovery and factory reseting. And also don't you only lose wifi when flashing 1.5.2? I might bw wrong about that though
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WheelieBin:
Sorry, I should have specified... yes, I have pulled battery - issue persists. I hadn't gone as far as a factory reset, but it's definitely less dramatic than a reflashing, so trying that now...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WheelieBin:
OK, factory reset seems to have done the trick - it was still on 1.2.6, I'll do the update to 1.5.7 with the v2 Root Process now and see how I go.

I'm Pretty new to android world.

Best thing i've done with my GT I9000 is root and flash a new rom from the rom kitchen, my phone is super fast and awesome. except..

On the generator page of the kitchen. Click on Update Zip, and select a new modem. Transfer that to your sd card, and install it.

Try the ZSJPG modem in the Asian section.

[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] The Gingerbread Man:
Hey guys,

Im sure many of you know about the problems which can be caused backing up apps and restoring them to different android versions (problems with force close, reboots, general instability / compatibility).

I found this great free app which makes a list of all your apps you have installed into an XML on your sd card (so it wont get wiped when flashing your phone) and will allow you to open the XML and select an app and it will take you to the market place page for your selected app to download it again.

I find the market place 'my apps' will only remember my paid apps after changing roms and this is a much more reliable way and safer way to get your apps back, plus its just easier to have all your old apps in a list ready to download and not searching for ages right?!

I flash my phone quite regularly and with this app you can be sure you get the correct version of your apps not restoring one that's not compatible and cause problems.

Here's the App Brain link http://www.appbrain.com/app/zemna-applist-backup/net.zemna.android.applistbackup. I don't expect this to changes lives buts its a helpful tool, for free!

I'm not the dev for this app and take no credit for his / hers / their work! Feel free to hit 'THANKS' if this is useful to you.

Enjoy ;-)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Z3US911:
to be honest not much usefull,but still appreciated...!!
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] The Gingerbread Man:
I found it good, each to their own opinions I guess. Just thought I'd share cos my market never shows my free apps after flashing and its just easier to use this than spend ages searching for the all again, there're just there in a list ready to download :-)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] gregbradley:
Many thanks,,

Very useful for me:)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] The Gingerbread Man:
Hit 'thanks' on the OP, glad to of helped ;-)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] gregbradley:
Already done:)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] svtfmook:
easiest way is to copy /data/app to your sd card. then copy all the apks from there to your computer and put them into flashtool's "/custom/app" folder. then after flashing your new rom, click "customize" in flash tool. bam, all your apps are installed without having to wait for downloading.

biggest downfall is losing app's saved "data". ei highscores and settings.

you can back these up by copying the program's data folder from /data/data to your sd card. the data folder for the program will look like this:

come.rovio.angrybirds (angry birds)

inside the data folder you will find different data files, some will be settings, highscores, etc. it will be different for every program. once you reinstall the app. you can copy JUST the data files to replace settings, scores, etc. don't copy the entire folder or you will get FC's.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] The Gingerbread Man:
That makes sense although iv never tried it. In theroy you could use the flashtool to put all the apps back on the phone and then with titanium back up restore data only and it not cause problems?
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] tookieboy:
why not just use titanium backup? there's a free version. it needs root, but if you're flashing roms so often, you would already have root. you can back up everything, and batch restore everything. better than clicking 1 app at a time imo
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] The Gingerbread Man:
I see where your coming from but backing up and restoring apps between different versions of android isn't really a good idea and there is different versions of apps for different android versions which is where the compatibility issues and stability problems come in.

The idea of this is it saves all your apps and you can download the right version for your particular configuration on your phone.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] svtfmook:
i hate restoring with titanium. you have to confirm each individual reinstall.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] The Gingerbread Man:
There is a batch mode you know and just leave it to do its thing automaticly. Batch restore brings everything back, I only had to confirm once at the start of the process
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] 2bullish:
I use android injector from a windows based pc, very handy
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] svtfmook:
batch mode asks me every app
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] aR_ChRiS:
thanks for recommending this app, as it is really useful

i do not recommend tb/mybackup if you are switching between android versions as some apks might not be compatible

using this you can link to the market really easy and it ensures you having apps installing in the right way =)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] XteNce:
boooo...

use Titanium Backup and be happy
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] The Gingerbread Man:
You should read the OP again, TB isn't always the best choice. Especially between different roms and versions of android.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] JayJ-1974:
I use TB and restore just the app, no data.

For games like AB there are back up apps available on the AM and I've not had any problems using this method!

Swyped from my ZDZ Froyo with Tapatalk Pro
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] XteNce:
hmm, I have never had any problems while restoring apps + data using TB on any roms ;)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] The Gingerbread Man:
Your lucky then I guess. Really the idea of this is if your changing your android version though, ie; going from 2.1- 2.2 ,2.2 - 2.3 or down grading your android version. It helped me anyway....
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] topikamew:
Hey guys, a quick question: is there a way to do an undo on nook, or any droid platform for that matter?

laptop died so using nook as replacement, currently using slideit on horizontal abc mode, and its actually not bad except finding some symbols, not as intuitive of typing as on my fascinate samsung. bought a bt keyboard, should be arriving soon.

also, what is the best browser in your opinion, and why? im personally using dolphin hd with desktop mode most of the time.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] onclebob:
i'm using opera, smoother experience :)
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] courtmagician:
For the browser, I've recently started using Firefox on my nook, and since it syncs with my desktop, I really like the experience. Especially as you add in a fee ad ons.

Not sure what you mean by "undo" but this could be apparently specific.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] djlim4:
Im using dolphin mini as I found this to be the fastest on my fascinate. Thumb keyboard is a pretty good choice
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] JLCollier2005:
what do you mean by undo? as in like unroot? if so there are ways (easiest is if you backed up your stock rom, like I did)

As for browser, I love dolphin Browser HD, works better than anything on both my nook and Droid...Opera 11 is also good, but doesn't have enough easy-to-use options for me (and Dolphin's tabs area also easier to use)
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] topikamew:
What i mean is like.. i want to be able to edit in a word doc or just typing anywhere. its just really annoying if you mistakenly delete a bunch of text never to be able to undo the deletion.

any ideas on this?

also, is swype available for NC?

Help: Cant update via Zune; Error 80072FA8

Hi I'm new here. :angel: I'm encountering the same error code, however on Zune software.

I’ve a Nokia Lumia 800 and I’m encountering these two error codes : 80072FA8 & 801811C5. Second error code only came when I tried to use a samsung data cable.

Just when the phone is connected via Zune, a dialog box appears “Can’t connect to internet through your phone. However, you can still sync items.” Then when I click on update the error code 80072FA8 comes sooner or later. I’ve tried everything that is told in KB 2484484. It seems that the problem is in proxy settings (googling told me this), but I’ve a wireless USB datacard. Proxy settings are not defined here. I don’t know what is causing this problem in checking for updates. MS has pushed 7.8 update and I wanted to check if it’s available in my region (India), if not, there is a way to force push the updates by tricking Zune, so wanted to try that. But my Zune is not even telling me that updates are available or not! :confused:

I’m going crazy as my phone is not getting flashed (bootloader problem, I think as many people told) I did everything to get it flashed through Navifirm & Nokia Care Suite, but it only gets hard reset. I sim-unlocked my Lumia 800 which was on Telus (Canada) and now using it in India.
