This is something that used to be in Windows Mobile 2003, but was removed around WM5. Categories, filters, etc. seem to be there, but they don't work for much, if anything. I have yet to find a way to edit categories, make new ones, or assign them to contacts on the phone under WM6.1.

A few posts were made in other forums on here about pocketPC apps that do the job. I don't know of one for a smartphone. It's all a jumble in my memory, but one of those apps that lets you assign different ringtones to individual contacts and groups of contacts has the feature for SMS as well, I think. Try a search and see what happens.
[HTC Excalibur] outerdepth:
I have searched far and wide as well

what Mikey says is pretty much gospel. So far, there is no other way to do this other than create a HUGE contact with all of the numbers you want added to it. Then, you just sms that contact you created. No other ways are possible, YET. Mikey RULES!
[HTC Excalibur] beartard:
Yes, Mikey has a decent kludge to get around WM's limitations. The weird question is why the limitation was added in WM5? For all the plusses, it sucks that a phone of this calibre can't do something a $15 Nokia can.
[HTC Excalibur] hawee:
i tried making a contact with "number; number" format and it didn't work. I get this error

Cannot send to e-mail recipients from the Text Message account.

any ideas how this can be possible?
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:
are you placing email address' or phone numbers in the "SMS contacts?
[HTC Excalibur] hawee:
phone numbers
[HTC Excalibur] hawee:
all im doing is making a new contact

and in the phone number field just typying in phone numbers ie. 1234567899; 1234567899; 1234567899

when i select it to send a message to it shows NameofContact<12345667899; 1234567899; 1234567899>

then i get an error when i try to send
[HTC Excalibur] Mikey:

[Xiaomi Mi 9 SE Questions & Answers] PurPLe SKy:
Ever since I bought the phone I had this issue which has not been solved with recent rom updates nor application updates. Basically while playing a voice message, either in WhatsApp or Telegram, the screen goes black (without putting the phone close to the head) and the audio switch from the speaker to the ear capsule. Even more, when this happens, the screen is stuck and I can't turn it on neither by double tapping the screen or pressing the power button. The only way to turn it back on is to put the phone "parallel to the ground", I know it's strange but that is. Other times, when this happens the audio is also distorted.

Are you experiencing the same problem?

Cheers.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 SE Questions & Answers] caesium2:
Just checked. No problems. Do you have anything that covers the distance sensor?
[Xiaomi Mi 9 SE Questions & Answers] PurPLe SKy:
Nothing installed on the phone (tempered glass etc.) it happens with just the MI cover installed. Also, it happens when I have the phone in my hand, if it's flat on a surface there's no problem.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 SE Questions & Answers] PurPLe SKy:
Just made a research on the official forum and I found out that a lot of other users are experiencing this issue.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 SE Questions & Answers] -Luigi.:
I'm facing the problem with distorted audio when recording whatsapp messages. But happens only sometimes, don't know how to reproduce. Proximity sensor bugs also sometimes... in my case the screen doesn't goes black, which leads to accidental touches..
[Xiaomi Mi 9 SE Questions & Answers] Tgcastro:
The same thing happened with me.

Any solution?
[Xiaomi Mi 9 SE Questions & Answers] maikel2201:
I think this happens only when i get a message... i guess the sound notification from the incoming message disturb the ongoing voice WhatsApp message
[Xiaomi Mi 9 SE Questions & Answers] PurPLe SKy:
None. This problem is quite common even on other Xiaomi devices (MI 9, Redmi Note 7 etc.) but not everyone is complaining about it.
[Xiaomi Mi 9 SE Questions & Answers] the_mindflayer:
I have the same problem -and always had- on a Xiaomi Mi MIX 2 running LineageOS, so I guess it depends on the firmware.

Hey guys,

just noticed that my screen is damaged. Bought the device the 23th May. Can someone relate to?

They say they can't replace the device because I'm contacting after the replacmente period.

Well, I just noticed because I was replacing screen protector. Bullsh*
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] B3311:
Unfortunate, but if you didn't notice it for 4 weeks I can't see there's a lot you can do.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] refedit:
Now I will send it for repair
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] derausgewanderte:
looks like to me this is not the screen maybe but the a thin polymer bezel that holds the screen in the frame?

cheers
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] kingbasescu:
If you didn't notice something like that in 4 weeks then it must've not been there when the phone came so it's probably your fault. They tend to want to replace the screen in cases like this and ask for a ton of $$$, so imo you should keep it like that if they say that.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] insomnia77:
That doesn't look like the screen in the picture. It looks like the housing that is chipped. If I'm seeing it correctly that would be hard for you to do yourself. It should be covered under warranty in my opinion.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] refedit:
Yes you're right. I didn't explain myself correctly. I already chatted with them and explained. Monday or Tuesday they'll pick up the phone.

From now on, I'll check carefully every smartphone.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] Bradl79:
Buy the screen protection plan and then get it replaced or go through squaretrade, in the US OnePlus screen replacement is like 165.00, but for a little chip I don't think it's worth it.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] refedit:
I bought the screen protection plan. But as insomnia77 said and I agree, it's not the screen that's damaged. It's the housing. Must be production problem.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] djsubterrain:
Not trying to be funny buy you DID remove the original screen protector that's pre-applied? Only asking cos that looks like bubbles under a protector?

Never mind, just noticed the chip. That's bad, did you give it a healthy drop?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] refedit:
Lol. No I didn't drop the phone once so far.

And yes, I was applying a new screen protector, after using tempered glass but didn't like it because of the bad accuracy of FP. Luckely I replaced the screen protector so I could notice the damage.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] insomnia77:
Oh that's good. Hopefully they replace it promptly. Keep us in the loop.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] refedit:
UPDATE

So that's what I got as answer from Oneplus:

"Thank you for contacting OnePlus Customer Support.

We apologies any inconvenience caused due to this. We understand your concern regarding the delay in repair for your device and this is the far opposite of what we want our customers to experience. Please note that we can do replacements only if the device is within 15 days return/replacement period and damages upon arrival has to be reported within 72 hours. Upon checking with your repair request we have found that it is pending for the spare parts to be arrived. Once the service center has received the spare parts then the device will be repaired and released as soon as possible.

Thank you for your understanding!

Please let us know if you have any other concerns.

Thanks & Best Regards,

James Wilson

OnePlus Customer Support"

I think this is a "cheap" after sales service.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] insomnia77:
If it takes too long ask for help on the official OnePlus forums. I've seen them escalate cases. If they don't have the part I would insist on a new replacement.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers] refedit:
Thank you. Will follow your advice! :highfive:

Once unlocked its permanent. Back up phone and do hard reset. Use the key combo not the option from Setting menu. If that doesn't solve it then use Emergency software repair ( Samsung Switch) on PC .
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Proxolin:
i already tried a hard reset, did not solve the problem.

i will try smart switch and let you know
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Proxolin:
ok i tried to use samsung switch, first of all the tab "Device Initialization" is missing in the latest version of this software, i tried to use an older version, here the tab Device Initialization still was here but when i type in my Model Number and SrNumber it Says:

"SM-G973F" does not support Initializing. Please contact a Service Centre

do i have to use ODIN now??

i guess i just will wait until a new update will come out and try to update with Smart Switch
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Rexton270:
You can reflash the fw with Odin. Flash the version you had before the "unlock ". I think they are messing with some version of firmware...
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] AHE_XDA:
Very close.

Bare with me as it's been a moment since I've worked with these tools:

Most 'instant' unlocks, done via USB over TCP/IP, tend to alter one of the device's primary certificates to allow for an 'instant unlock'.

If, and when, one of these certificates is replaced, it alters the chain of trust required by the device.

So when the device goes looking for an update, the update server acknowledges the request but sends back a query. In this query, and depending on the model, the update server looking for several variables and these must ALL match. Seeing as one of the primary certificates has changed, the result expected by the server isn't matched and, as such, it doesn't allow for an update.

[MENTION=501829]Rexton270[/MENTION] is correct in that you should replace the firmware with the same (and failing that, a newer version if possible). AFTER you flashed the new update, follow these steps:

https://www.verizonwireless.com/support/knowledge-base-222931/

(I know you don't have a Verizon device but the steps are the same)

Please keep us posted.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Proxolin:
thank you for that explanation.

i will first try to update the phone with smart switch as soon as there is a newer version for my phone, atm it says im up to date (i hope that is true) maybe it solves itself when i start an update with smart switch, if not i will follow your steps

thank you very much.
[Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers] Proxolin:
because there was still no update in samsung smart switch i flashed it with odin.

problem solved.

thank you.

for other users: if you want to unlock your phone, use the samsung database instead of the cheaper version.....

First of all, if you didn't build the rom yourself, it shouldn't be posted in the development section.

Second, you link sources for 4.4 kernel, and yet on your screenshot, it says 3.14Alchemy. So, the linked kernel is not the one used in the rom.

Kernel is Alchemy by Dmitrii Kudas.

I don't see any of them being mentioned in the contribution

Also the kernel source link is wrong. It is DD3BOHs kernel link

Members..please read rule 12 regarding sharing:

12. Sharing

XDA-Developers is based on the principle of sharing to transmit knowledge. This is the cornerstone of our site. Our members and developers freely share their experience, knowledge, and finished works with the rest of the community to promote growth within the developer community, and to encourage those still learning to become better. There are those, however, who take advantage of this model and try to make personal gains from the hard work of others.

In order to preserve the delicate balance between sharing for the good of the community and blatant self-promotion, regular members and developers alike must understand (and agree) to the following:

12.1. Give credits where due - Credits and acknowledgements for using and releasing work which is based on someone else's work are an absolute must. Works reported to have no credits will be taken down until proper acknowledgements are added by the member in question;

12.2. Courtesy - While most of the work released on our site falls under the umbrella of open source, that is not the only license model being used by developers on xda-developers. In order to prevent problems, we ask that if you decide to base your work on someone else's that you check the license model being used (as it might not be as permissive as one may think);

12.3. Re-releasing other's works as your own is forbidden. The code that you release into the wild must have something beyond minor aesthetic changes that makes it better than the last. As this can be subjective, kang reports will be reviewed on a case by case basis. If you feel that your code has been kanged, please contact the Dev Relations team (listed below) if you cannot solve the issue amicably via PM. Please understand that you will be asked to provide evidence to substantiate your claim;

12.4. Developers can issue take down requests (by contacting the Dev Relations team) under the following circumstances:

- in-process builds start showing up on forums when the developer is not yet ready to release the work;

- cases in which another developer is too aggressively soliciting donations or misrepresenting the work (kanging);

- unofficial builds where an official build is already available;

In summary, we want people to have access to work and knowledge alike. Sharing is good and courtesy and ethics go a long way.

Developers with questions, comments, complaints, or concerns about our rules (or anything!) should send a PM to our Dev Relations team (efrant or to a Moderator. We are here to help!

If a member claims your work as his/her own as a copy/paste with no changes then as per rule 12 report it to the Developers Relation Team for investigation. You will be asked to provide all the proof and the licenses used will be analyzed.

[General Questions and Answers] ThisIsClms:
Hello,

I hope I am right here - I could not post in the dev forum because I am not long enough a member here.

Please forgive me this potential noob question, I know how these questions suck for advanced forum members but I simply don't find another way to solve my problem. I googled like crazy and tried to understand the material I found - without success.

I am new to coding and decided to code a simple app which displays a website, just for myself.

Because WebView does not support all the JavaScript Functions the websites needs, I decided to go with GeckoView - which worked fine.

I was really happy to get the app running, even though it's super basic :p

The website loading inside GeckoView now needs permission to access the microphone of my device.

So I added to AndroidManifest.xml the following line:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO" />

... still did not work.

When I open the website in question in regular Firefox, the browser asks me to grant permission.

So I guess I need to give GeckoView itself permissions to access the mic.

I looked into the documentation but could not understand anything (I wanted to include the like to the doc here, but because I am new, I can't link to external pages. If you google "Interface GeckoSession.PermissionDelegate" you will find the documentation I am talking about). I did some try and error experiments but it was not working. It was more or less wild guesses because I even could not find any example code/projects using these permissions so I could try to understand it better.

I am simply stuck. I read everything regarding these permissions but have a hard time understanding most of it.

That's why I came here. I would highly appreciate your help so I can finish this seemingly easy task.

Thanks a lot!

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Guides, News, & Discussion] ander11rso:
Hello there,

this is my first thread so maybe I can make some mistakes.

I tried to install Lineage in my Mi A1, with their wiki guide. Then the device bootlooped, I tried with a lot of guides, tutorials, I used Cosmic Dan's TWRP for formating partitions, installed vendor images...

But the phone was ****ed up... I tried to install a fastboot ROM but the phone didnt have signal, or it was stucked in the SIM password...

If someone is facing some similar problem, I would like to help you. Like I said before, I tried with a lot of methods, a lot of different recoveries, I tried https://xdaforums.com/mi-a1/development/twrp-stock-8-1-0-t3856328 this one too, all tipes of fastboot or TWRP stock ROMs... but no clue of how solving it.

So THIS is the only way(for me at least) for solving it. It is in Indian, but you can follow his steps if you flashed any ROM before, is quite easy.

1. - You need your phone to be unlocked, if you dont have it, just use the command "fastboot oem unlock" while you are in fastboot mode. There are plenty of guides for this.

2- You have to run MiFlash. If you dont have it HERE you have the version that I used.

3. Download and extract THIS Rom. Then copy the link to MiFlash like he does in the video, or browse for the folder.

4. Plug your phone in Fastboot mode, and click reflresh, till you see a device in the MiFlash tool. Check that you have the "clean all" option in the bottom of the app. DONT CHOOSE THE LOCK ONE.

After this your phone still wont work, dont worry, just press Vol Down+Power again till' the phone enters fastboot again.

5. Download TWRP and boot the phone with the recovery using the command "bootloader boot twrp-3.2.3-1-tissot.img.html" in the adb folder(same steps that the other TWRP versions with temporal boot)

6. Download this Backup and copy the folder inside the 7z to the device(not to the sd) and replace the TWRP folder.

7. Use the restore option in TWRP for restoring the backup, and the go to Reboot -> Bootloader and you will be in Fastbood mode again.

8. REPEAT the "4" step, but THIS TIME use the FLASH ALL AND LOCK option.

I hope it works!

Ps. Im from Spain, so it could be some grammatical mistakes xd
