I have already manually discovered that, but it's not what I need for the first request I have re-quoted...

That is what I was looking for! :)

Personally I prefer to have a single edit page that all these multiple actions separated for each fields. For me it's confusing...

Actually it will be great to have a manual/help file so to not have to discover the functionality by trial and error!

Great job developer !!!!
[Android Apps and Games] _jis_:
I am sorry for bumping.

Why are these categories missing?

And not only those but even more categories are missing in comparison with stock app :(
[Android Apps and Games] dvhttn:
They are present in mine (though I never use Google Voice). I sync my phone contacts with Outlook on my PC and it will sync every type of contact phone number that Outlook has except for 'Home2' (which Android does not have so cannot be sync'd). Outlook does not have a'Google Voice' option so can't test that ...
[Android Apps and Games] _jis_:
There is no problem with syncing any categories (ok except Home2 for example as you point it out), but with creating them within this app. I am sorry that I wasn't clear in my question.
[Android Apps and Games] exisapps:
We thought these categories obsolete and useless, aren't they? Do you really have fax or pager? I agree about google voice indeed.
[Android Apps and Games] _jis_:
Many of my corporate/business contacts still have fax and I am using pager field myself, not for real pager, but for sending remote control codes over GSM, hence paging is close. Google or Microsoft doesn't see them as obsolete ;)
[Android Apps and Games] exisapps:
Well, I will consider adding these types :)
[Android Apps and Games] dvhttn:
My view is that to appeal to the widest audience you need to accommodate existing contact managers and their categories. Just because you, personally, don't see or use faxes, pagers etc, doesn't mean that others in the world don't. So being able to sync and label correctly all the Outlook categories is a good step. Many people I know use Outlook at home and obviously a lot of businesses do.

Just MHO ..... :good:
[Android Apps and Games] exisapps:
Agree.
[Android Apps and Games] Gerxp:
I found a bug:

I have 2 accounts, both has groups contacts.

When I want to add an ungrouped contact to a group, then I only see the groups from 1 contact.

Hopefully this can be fixed soon.
[Android Apps and Games] exisapps:
Its not a bug. Groups belong to accounts, you cannot add contact on one account into groups on another.
[Android Apps and Games] Gerxp:
I have a request/suggestion.

When I do Contact to display and hide a group from display. Then the contacts from that group wont showup in Contact list. Thats good.

But when I then browse groups, the group is also hidden in the group list.

Wouldnt it be better/ more handy if that is separated from each other? So that the group is still visible in grouplist? Because I only did Hide from contactlist right?
[Android Apps and Games] nothingman1976:
Hi,

I use a dual sim phone and it would be usefull to have an option to assign all the contacts of a group to a specific sim. I know I can assign contacts to sim but doing this for each contact it's tedious. Much better select a group and assign all contacts to a sim with just one click.

Regards
[Android Apps and Games] dvhttn:
Would it be possible to add a feature to the address details within a contact? At the moment when you touch the address you get a maps app pop up. Fine if that's what you want but usually I just want to verify the address (get the post code correct etc) so I can write it out on a letter (someone's birthday card for example). I find that the address format within a contact is a little on the small side (text size wise) for someone of my 'reduced eyesight (i.e. I need reading glasses!). I was thinking that the map could still pop up if you touched the google maps icon on the left but if you touched the address itself then an address card could appear, much marger, with the address formatted correctly as well.

Rather than, as now, "8, Main Road, Small Village Name, Town,

County, post code, Country" - in small text, we would get:

8, Main Road,

Small Village Name,

Town,

County,

post code,

Country.

... in larger text. (And obviously the address format is different per country, that's correct for me in the UK).

What do you think? The important bit from the above is the 'needing reading glasses' bit ...... :)

Thanks

Have you tried using your phone stock dialer again as default dialer to exclude any True Phone issue?
[Android Apps and Games] GCalzo:
I would give this a chance! Me too, sometimes, I have to force BT connection with my car on my phone.

For a quick test just delete the BT join with the smartwatch...

[Android Apps and Games] Garfield1970:
Hi again :)

Reporting back after some testing .....

1) Doesn't matter if I use stock dialer or True Phone , behaviour is the same , so I guess it's not a True Phone problem :)

Here's the outcome ->

If only the Car is connected

- works as expected , Audio is routed to Car Radio as default when placing or answering a call

If only the Watch is connected

- works as expected , Audio is routed to Car Radio as default when placing or answering a call

- Audio is kept on phone when I place or answer a Call from the phone

When both the Car and the Watch are connected

- Audio is routed to Watch when I place or answer a Call from the watch

- Audio is kept on phone when I place or answer a Call from the car radio

- Audio is kept on phone when I place or answer a Call from the phone

- Long Press on Bluetooth button in True Phone allows me to switch Audio to car

I'm currently playing around with Automate to disconnected ( at least partially ) the watch when the car connects , but no luck until now

Anyone got a suggestion for me ?

Cheers and have a nice weekend ,

Claude

That behavior is not correct, and actually doesn't occur in my case:

- Xiaomi MI 11 Ultra

- Huawei Talkband B6

- Volvo Sensus Navigation

But actually the Talkband B6 is a smart headset and it's operative only when the earpiece is extracted from the frame, so this could matter.

Which is your car radio?

I have the same issue with True Phone call recording. The voice of the other person is really low while mine is fine. You say that it's fine with root but how can I trigger True Phone to ask me for root access? It never did.

Long time ago I've done some testing using Bluetooth Auto Connect v4.6.5 by UniqTec

Unfortunately this app is no more on the store and seems to be stolen by someone else... On APKmirror is available and in the description there is still references to UniqTec.

There are more recent version but not from this guy (I know and trust him for Task&Note) and honestly I will not suggest you to try the most recent version!! v4.7.0 is from UniqTec but is "pro", starting with v5.0 is from someone else!

On my Motorola Moto G5 plus I wasn't able to solve the problem definitely, but you may want to give v4.6.5 a try!

Does truephone actually handle voicemail, or not? I've been trying to figure it out for ages...
[Android Apps and Games] larryk:
You continue to use your existing voicemail, truephone is a dialer/contacts app. If you don't have visual voicemail, you can long press #1 in the dialer to access you voicemail.
[Android Apps and Games] christiebunny:
no voicemail notifications, though?
[Android Apps and Games] larryk:
The notification would come through your voicemail app, nothing really to do with truephone...

[Android Apps and Games] LuvToHateTech:
I know the Dev has not logged in sense Apr 3, 2021, but i'm annoyed that there is no way to See/edit "Phonetic" name fields like in the Google/AOSP Contacts APP. even though Contacts are sorted by "Phonetic" name fields having priority over First name.

This is silly & confusing, i expect an APP i have to go download to at least have stock functionality for such a simply thing.

[Android Apps and Games] tiho5:
There is a very nice option in true phone: it's called "Announce caller name on incoming calls using bluetooth or wired headsets".

This option used to work for me and it was quite convenient. Then recently it suddenly stopped working. I know I haven't updated anything.

If anybody has an idea what maybe by causing the problem, please share.
[Android Apps and Games] baszu:
A good alternative phone app. After a few weeks try this true phone, I decided to pay for ad-free.
[Android Apps and Games] andrabr:
This is an excellent dialer - hands down the best feature set among the many I looked at (I am very picky).

Two feature suggestions:

1. In single-handed use by the short-fingered folks (like my Mom) Favorites are a bit hard to reach. This could be solved by an option to have an inverse layout of that particular screen: favorites at the bottom, frequently contacted above them (more are revealed by swiping down).

2. Add an (optional) dialpad to the Favorites screen. Many years ago I had a dialer like that and the combination was incredibly convenient. If this is implemented, the "Phone" tab should be renamed to "History".

If #1 is implemented, I'll be paying for two copies ( a happy Mom is worth it :-)

Hi

I have bought this app. Its great but i have probblem with call recording. I recorded one call and another calls are silent. I transfered other app (acr) from my old phone maybe this two apps are interfering eah other. Acr was downloaded from Huawei app galery and now I cant unistall this app on my new Phone. I must make factory reset and i dont want to pai twice.
[Android Apps and Games] themissionimpossible:
You could install the Huawei App Gallery and probably manage ACR from there.
[Android Apps and Games] vponomarev:
This is a great app and I've been using it for several years now. Trying to set it up on a new phone and I noticed that it replaces the incoming screen with its own. It would be fine, except that the default one shows Caller Id even phone numbers not in my address book.

I haven't yet found a way to disable TP's incoming screen. Resetting default phone app to original is not an option because TP really want to be a default one.

Any suggestions?

EDIT: Found it!

Settings -> Incoming/Ongoing calls -> True Phone call screens -> Turned off

I really wish there was an option "Outgoing calls only" though.

Hi, first of all a great thanks to the developer for developing such a wonderful app like this. This app does what it says, tried and tired installing so many apps, finally found this one. It works great, though call recording is having problem with the recording, other than that an wonderful app...kudos to the developer, keep up the good work.

Just a small doubt, is this app completely free, it is showing ad supported but I haven't see any ads??!!!

And what is the difference between exceptional, great and good in the purchase options!!???
[Android Apps and Games] singh54:
Only for Unrooted samsung phone users, which supports call recording feature

Thos who are using samsung phones try the following steps which would help to record the calls.

1. First switch on the auto call record feature from call settings-->auto record calls.

2. Then go to settings in Truephone app, then go to ongoing call screen options, use/place the record button in the call screen. Also in Truephone call recording option, choose recording option as "system app".

That's it if you are on a call using this truephone app and if u press the record button automatically phone will switch over to the native call interface and call recording would be done flawlessely.

[Android Apps and Games] 99peter:
Another problem when you press a number, it searches the contact list for the letters that match this number, e.g. at 3 he is looking for d,e,f, but since this phone changes first names with last names, it would be very good if the search could be made by first name

Hi, is the best dialer the last 4 years. Only one question. I have redmi k20 and not working announce caller name. Can i do something?
[Android Apps and Games] themissionimpossible:
If you absolutely need this feature you might use the default Google dialer for incoming calls.

Set the Google dialer to announce incoming callers.

Go to True Phone settings and open Incoming/In progress callings menu section.

Disable the option for using the True Phone calling screen.

This way you'll get also the Google spam call warning.:)
[Android Apps and Games] sotsp:
Thanks for your answer. The problem begin after upgrade my phone from 12.1 to 12.5 miui version. The google dialer never install in my phone. Always used mi dialer and true phone and the announce caller name working perfect till upgrade to 12.5 miui.
[Android Apps and Games] themissionimpossible:
Anyway, the same settings above should work with every default dialer (this way the default dialer will be used for incoming calls).

Hi,

I have a flip case for the Samsung Galaxy S20 FE. With the integrated call application, the caller's name is displayed on the flip case and the call can be answered. I need to open the case when using True Phone. The caller's name is not displayed, not can a call through the case be answered. There is a way to display the caller's name on the flip case with the True Phone application and to be able to answer the call. Thank you

EDIT:

Alternatively, can I set the application to read the caller's name?
[Android Apps and Games] themissionimpossible:
Set True Phone to disable its own call screen during incoming call (settings/incoming calls).

Then the default dialer will be used, included all its available functionalities.
[Android Apps and Games] kevin.kvik:
Thank you
[Android Apps and Games] TBacker:
I've been using this dialer for quite some time and love it. It strikes the best balance of functionality and simplicity.

One question I have - is there any way you can integrate AOSP OMTP visual voicemail capability directly into this app? I can enable it on the AOSP dialer, but then I'd have to open that dialer and go to the voicemail tab to check the list of VM's.

Thought I'd ask. I know Google doesn't make things easy for developers sometimes.

flashed the 'true phone stub' through magisk, rebooted,

installed the nightly build 2.0.16 (115) of 10th March 2021

and configured it for call recording, then updated to the current release 2.0.17 (117). all fine as of now.
[Android Apps and Games] jed84:
Considering this app is no longer supported and that the new Google policy targeting call recording is coming, it's best to assume that we might need to find a better app alternative soon.

Do you use magisk module for truephone? Please read first message in this thread.
[Android Apps and Games] :
I have two phones, one with android 10 and second with 12.

In both sync of contacts with google account is turned off.

Problem is in both phones regularly (about once per month) all contacts are wiped out and I have to restore them from backup.

There is no visible cause of this state.

What I noticed True Phone seems to delete all main groups because normally I have:

1) Phone, Local, unsynced

2) Google, some_name@gmail.com

and under Phone, Local, unysnced there are those groups created by me

After deletion I see just empty:

1) Phone, some_mail@gmail.com

with some default groups and recently I noticed there some contacts that were unsynced under default Unsynced group.

I use True Phone very long time and I definitelly inherit group layout from earlier versions.

Is it possible current version delete existing structure and recreate it somehow to actual expected?

This is especially annoying because True Phone doesn't support export/import groups made by user.

And this is the second question: is it possible to export own groups?

And third question is: is this app still developed?
[Android Apps and Games] themissionimpossible:
Any contact app that is able to manage the local contact database on the smartphone can be used to manage and save/export local contacts and groups.

There could be only one local contact database on the phone, and if TruePhone is configured to use the local contact database, it too uses it, IMO there isn't a TruePhone own contact database.
[Android Apps and Games] deserted:
I noticed that uninstalling the Telegram FOSS app deletes contacts. But I'm not entirely sure.

Perhaps you have deleted some messenger app?
[Android Apps and Games] :
Do I understand you correctly: do you suggest other app can wipe out contact DB and TruePhone is just a "victim"? How can I check such things in Android? Is it even possible?

Can you point to me some valuable app dedicated just to manage contacts?

Thing is I have no such apps. Only communicator I have is Discord. On the second phone there is no Discord at all and rather simple set of apps. I looked earlier an app that are on both phones and may have an access to contacts - I have no idea which one may do this.

In the list of apps that had access to contacts in previous 24 hours I see:

Evie, Gmail, Google, Contacts (system), Pickup The Phone, True Phone, Messages (system), YAATA.

To be honest most suspicious is Evie.

Is there any diagnostic app I can try to use to figure out what apps are doing with DB?
[Android Apps and Games] themissionimpossible:
Google Contacts let you choose if you want to use/manage local or account contacts.

Personally I've never lost my local database contacts, anyway there are lots of apps that backups/restore the contacts (like Super Backup & Restore), possibly with a scheduled backup task.
