Just to address this since some people seem to be confused by this (as was I when I first started seeing this tip): You do this by hitting the little arrow in the name field.

Also, when you do this, you lose the ability to start typing the last name OR the first name for auto-search. You'll only be able to do the first name.

I don't think anyone is keeping track, but I'll vote for this as well.

This doesn't make any sense why it doesn't remember what you set the filter as. Previously I had a Cingular 2125 smartphone running WM5 for smartphones. The contacts application on it would remember the filter you set forever. I have a lot of additional contacts that I don't talk to anymore. I like the ability to have them on the phone so that if they called it would show their name, but don't want them to show up in contacts unless I take my filter off.

Sometimes I have to wonder if they do any real life testing of products like these before they release them. A team of 5 power users testing the phone from day to day over a couple weeks could find and report these issues before it went into production.

I've been emailing back and forth with Raj for the last 2 days. He is a very nice fellow. This file above will work for Outlook, he can create one for Outlook Express, but if you use Outlook Web Access, he isn't able to do it.
[General Topics] addicus:
This cab works wonderfully. Thank you very much.

Be warned all your contacts may dissappear (mine did) until you resink.

All you do is run the cab then go to program files, choose which way you want your contacts (make sure they are backed up). If your contacts disappear like mine, use activesync to restore them or put them back from where you saved them.

Peace and Love.
[General Topics] TheCritic:
I'd also really like a way for contacts to remember the filter setting!! In my case I'd set 'No Categories'. When I saw this option I was amazed how useful it was, went through and set categories on private and previous employer contacts, then was bummed when I realized it doesn't stick.
[General Topics] AsifM3100:
Hi

Downloaded the Raj plug in and reordered ny contacts list on the PC. Then synced with phone and contacts were correcly ordered. However entering a new contact on the phone saves it as lastname, firstname.

Any more ideas ?
[General Topics] vijay555:
Yes, use the cabs posted above,

which let you resort your contacts on the fly directly from the device.

A wonderful piece of work by Raj...
[General Topics] Phoney:
I solve this problem by running the Raj plugin in Outlook.

In other words --

* Create new contact on phone

* Phone orders it Last, First

* Run the Raj plugin on my PC

* Phone syncs and contacts are now all First, Last again!

It's not any trouble for me -- I don't add many contacts via my phone. I might run around with a couple of contacts out-of-order for a week, but I eventually sync and everything works.

Just stumbled upon all this while browsing around the forums, and would like to confirm this as working on Outlook 2007 as well. Brilliant add-on!!
[General Topics] :
Raj's File As Outlook plugin is GREAT. Saves a lot of time by avoiding the need to change "file as" on individual contacts, either in Outlook or on your device with the installation of .cab files (and no 3rd party clutter on your device if you don't want).

Highly recommended.
[General Topics] addicus:
This freeware program called Contact Fix will allow it to happen. Enjoy!
[General Topics] addicus:
Raj and I had a few converstations and unfortunately he doesn't use Outlook Web Access so he doesn't have a way tomake the program compatible with it.

Therefore I was forced to find the Contact Fix 1.3 program that I have posted above. It runs on the phone, has a small footprint and works.
[General Topics] addicus:
Sorry for the above post. This guy I got the program first so all praises to Soulpilot. YeeeyaH!
[General Topics] :
Does Contact Fix 1.3 change all the contacts to First Name, Last Name at once? If so, then that is a great alternative!

trying to change my contacts

hey,

i know that this has been discussed on xda numerous times. so sorry in advance!! im trying to change my contacts on my tytnii. i want my contacts to show first name first. i also have some contacts that begin with school. so when i press "s" i will go to school. i tried all the programs: fileasl, contactchanger etc. but this doesnt seem to work. can somebody help pls.

maybe i can better ask:

do these programs work on a wm6 device like tytn ii.

does the program change the names in the device or is it only for new contacts.

i also tried the converter for outlook but that also doesnt do anything. what the F@^#&*^&k am i doing wrong.

im getting really pissed now trying to convert my contact list....!!!

pls help........thanks
[General Topics] t0flus:
My application (http://www.shubaroo.com/index.php?module=contact) will loop all the existing contacts on your device. It will change all contacts to show as Firstname Middlename Lastname.

When ever you add a new contact you will have to run the application.

I've tested it on HTC TyTn II with success.
[General Topics] shapiror06:
isnt there just a simple registry edit to correst this? i could have swore I came accross it once. just edit the registry and it changes all the contact and changes the default for future contact adds. anyone know?
[General Topics] t0flus:
I found a reg entry here at XDA a long time ago too. But that did not change anything on any of my devices.....

I started on a new version of the Contact fix but I never had time to finish it. The idea was to make it run as a system service and register for notifications whenever a new contact is added or an old one is edited and change the FileAs property automatically......the service part and the notification part is more or less done... but there are a lot of issues that needs to be tested... I don't want to release an application that destroys contact lists ;)

I believe it would be wize to disable the service when ever activesync tries to syncronize against outlook or an exchange server....?

An exeptionlist would be nice... So you can display different contacts in diffrent ways...

A custom FileAs option where you can type for instance: "%f %m %l" for "Firstname Middlename Lastname" or "%l, %f %m for "Lastname, Firstmane Middlename"

And so on....

So many ideas... so little time.....I wish a day had 30 hours :)

[General Topics] crobs808:
lol, you dont have to do that...

Go to your contacts, edit one of them, and scroll down a few lines, you will see "File As"...you can file it as their regular name like "John Smith" rather than "Smith, John"

just change that "file as" line for each one.

Is there any way, to display the nickname first?

Or to display only the nickname, and the first/surname only if there isn't any nickname?

Sorry about my English!
[General Topics] player911:
Well it works for me, except after like 3 minutes they will start to revert back to Lastname, Firstname.

I don't know what changes. I ended up deleted all of my contacts, restoring a backup, and now they're fine. As soon as I swap with Google Exchange, they'll be screwed up again.

Perhaps a full registry dump before/after then do a B-Compare on the two reg files to see whats changed. It has to be some reg entry.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blackojacko:
I have searched vigorously for a similiar problem with my phone and have found nothing. Ever since the Kit Kat update select applications do not have access to my photo gallery. Applications include Adobe Photoshop and the One's own messaging app. When I choose to select a photo from my gallery it simply takes me back to the album page when a photo is selected. This continues in a loop until I get frustrated and decided the photo didn't need to be edited or sent in the first place. Twitter however has no problem uploading photos from my gallery which I find quite odd. Any help or suggestions are appreciated.

As for the root questions I want to know what I can do with my phone. I'm on a Verizon stock htc one on 4.4 with s-on and a locked bootloader. I am unsure how to proceed with my phone. When I attempt to unlock my bootloaded I am confronted with the 160 error code. Should I purchase Sonics java s off or not? I am completely lost. Again any suggestions are appreciated

Thanks for your time and understanding
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darksnoopy:
Its better not to mess with s-off and bootloader unlocking. Just backup your data and photos and make a factory reset
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blackojacko:
Factory reset would fix the photo problem?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darksnoopy:
Its a possible solution. Just remember to backup all your data before factory reset
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blackojacko:
I did a factory restore and the problem is still present
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fenstre:
I don't understand how you could get this problem without rooting, but normally this is caused by screwing up the permissions of the data in /sdcard (copying data to /sdcard when the phone is running recovery rather than Android). To test this, rename /sdcard/DCIM to /sdcard/DCIM.bak, take some new photos, and see whether applications can access them properly.

The normal way to fix this is to change the permissions with the shell, but since you aren't rooted, you may have to copy the files to your computer then copy them back. You can use "adb pull"/"adb push" or try to copy using the easier and less reliable methods.

[Ornate TrueSmart] b4d5h0t:
Hi all i have posted this in the omate forum as i believe the 2 watches to be very similar if not technically identical and was wondering how others have found the call quality of there watch. I received my iconbit callisto today and i am more than impressed with everything about it apart from the mic during calls it sounds like i am underwater when calling using the watch mic with some strange background interference noises, i can hear the caller perfectly through the strap speaker but they say my end sounds strange, calling using a bluetooth headset is clear though.

Anyone else have experienced this or know a fix? I have heared there is a patch available ensec i think its called, anyone know if the patch helps with the mic?

Im amazed with the performance of the watch its just a shame about the watch mic
[Ornate TrueSmart] Lokifish Marz:
EnSec does not fix the mic issue however it is very unwise to use your Callisto without the patch. There is also no fix for the mic issue at this time.
[Ornate TrueSmart] lirona:
I have too this problem with my watch Omate TrueSmart, I hope that it will fix.

[Ornate TrueSmart] trent999:
I wish we could figure out what is the cause of some TrueSmart watches, but not all of them, having the noisy mic issue.

If the same watch models running the same firmware are behaving differently as regards the sound quality of the mic, it seems to me that the difference must be in how they were assembled ? If so, it might be correctable.
[Ornate TrueSmart] b4d5h0t:
Thanks for the replys, i have seen your youtube tutorial Loki for rooting and applying the ensec patch and i will be having a go at that very soon, as for the watch mic i have tested it using the voice recorder and also sending voice via whatsapp and the mic works fine its only during a call it becomes slightly unclear with strange background noises yet when speaking through a bluetooth headset during a call its perfect. i am going to try it through viber and skype through wifi and 3g then again with another sim card to see if i can work out whats going on, such a small annoying problem on a great device.

I really hope it is a firmware/software issue so it can maybe be rectified but it might be just interference from the cell radio messing with the mic :(

Is this a common fault with all of these smartwatches? or only some and maybe we could find out if its effecting both the European and US versions as dont we both run on a slightly different cell radio frequency

Im in the UK using a giffgaff sim which runs on the o2 network.

Hi,

I have a 12.2" with an external Logitech bluetooth keyboard and mouse.

I was wondering if it's possbile to program a hot key (in this case the windows key) so that the Samsung "recent app" bar appears?

I know the Alt-Tab keys will allow you to switch apps but it doesn't allow to close them.

So in a perfect scenario. I would press the single windows key and the recent app function would launch across the bottom of the screen.

Hi,

Two weeks ago, I bought the Moto G. It is a great device. However I made a strange discovery.

When the brightness is high, there seem to be horizontal lines in blue and gray colors like the
