Tip: You can search for users in the general search tool. Just press the search button, and start typing the name. A lot faster than browsing through the contact list.

Superdial doesn't work on 2.1 either

I'd been using the free app superdialer from the market for this same functionality. Unfortunately it isn't working with the 2.1 contacts list quite yet

t9 contact search on the dialer itself is indispensable. I don't know why this isn't part of the stock dialer.
[Nexus One General] diversificationied:
Search only pulls info from first and last name.

[Nexus One General] 513:
Better ? And in which way because I can't see it ?
[Nexus One General] bubbahump:
Try StarContact

I agree with the OP. I don't understand why Google doesn't offer T9 support on the default dialer. It is in my top 5 frustrations with Android.

That said, I've been using StarContact (in the market) since it first came out for the G1. It works on the Nexus as well. The HTC dialer is still better, and I loved it when I had the Rogers rom on my G1. Too bad that rom stopped at 1.5.

I'm getting really sick of all of the people who won't post their questions in the right forum. Also, I'm sick of people asking how to get HTC proprietary apks to work on the Nexus. If I can get a dump of a sense UI on 2.0 or later with the right screen resolution I will port it. Until then, you can't get HTC apps to work on the Nexus. So quit asking, please.
[Nexus One General] teknomanelvis:
right on, there will be some htc ports soon people, until then just relax.
[Nexus One General] karthikjr:
What he said.

Also, turn off "Web Search" and "Music" in settings for the Google Search

widget, and you'll have a very fast, handy way of getting into contacts from

the home screen. Turning off "Web Search" only turns off Web Suggestions btw.

Type in whatever you want and hit enter and it'll take you to the browser.

[Nexus One General] player911:
Well I think a ban is a bit harsh. It would take less time to just move the thread and close it vs posting a huge post... which can be equally wasteful. Being a new upcoming N1 owner and new to Android, all of this is new to me as well. I think the Development forum would be accurate IMO.

Anyway. Good thing this thread wasn't deleted because it has some useful information. My neighbor has a N1 and it was one thing that I noticed it lacked. SpellDial looks like a good fix until Google adds this functionality in the stock dialer. Also, good info on the Google Search options, I'll try that too.

[HD2 General] Robrecht:
Hi,

When I switch the phone on by pressing one of the hardware buttons, getting past the lock screen often takes ages. I can slide the lock slider to the side, but after that everything freezes and it can take up to 10 seconds for the lock screen to disappear. Sometimes it even hangs completely.

It doesn't happen every time, but often enough to be annoying.

I have a suspicion that the problem might be the Sense interface hanging or restarting. During the freeze, the start menu often works ok, and I can access other programs from there too. It's just the home screen that won't come up.

Does anyone else experience this? Any solutions??

I'm on ROM 1.48.
[HD2 General] danfard:

[HD2 General] d3l1:
I have that issue when closing some programs like opera and going back to the start-screen it freezes for a few seconds. sometimes rsshub freezes for no reason, too. i have no idea whats causing it.
[HD2 General] waynepyrah:
I get this allthe time :(

not good
[HD2 General] Robrecht:
True, shutting down Opera seems to take a lot of system resources for a couple of seconds. It was like that in the Touch Pro too. But at least here you know when it'll happen and why, so I can live with that. I just keep Opera open in the background most of the time. [I haven't used Rsshub much so I have no idea what's going on there.]

The trouble with the lock screen freeze is that it occurs when the phone has been idle for a while and shouldn't actually be doing anything. And the fact that it's completely random. Whenever you turn on your device, you have no idea if it'll be responsive or not. It's the one and only thing that annoys me about the HD2.

I'm sure the phone itself is perfectly capable of streaming it, the problem is T-mobile's website not being up-to-date enough to regocnise the HD2.

Hi!

Sorry about my English!

Is there any way, to display the nickname only of a contact, if it exist, and only display the full name, if there isn't any nickname?

For Example:

- First name: James; Last name: Kirk; Nickname: Jim -> Displayed name: Jim

- Firs name: James; Last name: Kirk -> Displayed name: James Kirk

I hope it's understandable.

I have viewed many forums on the internet, and of course here, but I found nothing usefull, at all.

If it counts: I have a Hermes, with official WM6, but I'm planning to upgrade to one of Tai's 6.5 ROM.
[General Questions and Answers] lordfreyr:
Anybody?

Outlook can write custom File As field and WM recognize it, so it can be done, but without Outlook how?

Can I manually modify it? Where does WM store the contacts? If they're not binary or something like that, they can be modified manually. Or is there any program? WM is a very old system, I can't imagine, that nobody wrote a program, to make custom File As fields, if it's possible.
[General Questions and Answers] lordfreyr:
I have found a solution!

I exported my contacts with PIM Backup, to a non binary file, extracted the .pid file, modified the .csc file, changed all the "Name"-s and the "Displayed Name"-s to the nickname, copied the .csc back to the .pid and imported it with PIM Backup back to my PDA.

Now all the File As fields contains the nickname (I think the "Displayed Name" has no function in WM, but.. I don't know, first I only changed them, but it didn't worked).

It's more complicated that I wanted, but it's working.

Can anybody write a program, that do the same thing automatically?

Is anyone else having battery life issues? Im running the latest Firestorm ROM from agent_47.

Heres how my day went today. All days are similar and I still have crap battery life every day.

Phone goes on charge when i'm at my desk. So last night would have gone on charge from about 9pm.

Phone then stayed on charge, through the night until 10.30am when I woke up.

I sent one text message and went to work.

Checked my phone at dinner at 1pm - 80% battery

Went back to work.

Went on my break at 6pm - 0% battery

Within 9 hours my phone had gone completly dead. I had not used the phone all day apart from in the morning to send a message and to check it on my dinner. The phone stayed on all day but in standby mode.

Does this sound like a problem with the phone or with the battery. Remember I haven't even used it all day, its just been on standby and it can't even make it 9 hours.

I have emails on but thats only setup to check every hour. Some days i've taken it off charge at 10am and its been dead by 3pm. Im not using any programs on it because im at work.

4) hold old is your battery? is it original?

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] igoodbyes:
test,experiments....xperience!

here's my story.

on how i learnt and increased my xperia x1's battery life about 50% or more.

firstly.

do a test okay.

make your phone's battery completely dead and then, charge it.

during the charging process.

check how much it took, to make xperia's battery 100%

official time to make xperia x1's time is 2hrs 15mins.

if your phone charged faster than the official time.

then that means, at the battery is aged or not using it's full potential.

and here's how i can prove it.

my xperia took exactly 55mins to charge from 0% to 100%.( whether it was a stock rom or a custom rom, althought there was small variation. say about 10mins at max) when i was charging it from 0% to 100%

then i went so many websites and infos from the web.

one read that, to make your battery last longer or to make it...use it's full potential. you have to put it in a freezer for a day or two or more.

(although, this might completely sound stupid or ridiculous, it actually works)

i'm sorry but i cannot remember the exact temperature or what my freezer's temperature was when i stored it, will let you know though)

then i stored it for day on every alternative of a week. which means, 4 times. that is 24hrsX4.

after that, i did a little test and againand this time, when i charged it.

it took my xperia 2 hrs to charge full unlike before. although it is as same as the official time. it still is close and better than my previous result.

then, to make another experiment.

i differentiated time line of usage.

here it is.

before

music playback via earphones - 8hrs 45mins

music playback via loudspeaker - 5hrs 30 mins

video playback via earphones - 2hrs 28mins

video playback via loudspeaker - 1hr 49mins

internet using gprs(3g mode) - 2hrs 33mins

internet turned on even on standby(3g mode) - 3hrs- 10hrs

after

music playback via earphones - 19hrs 20mins

music playback via loudspeaker - 9hrs 55mins

video playback via earphones - 5hrs 15mins

video playback via loudspeaker - 3hrs 20 mins

internet using gprs(3g mode) - 5 hrs

internet turned on even on standby(3g mode) - 15hrs-32hrs

and so, my battery lasted longer. it even lasted slightly longer when i used spike's unoff series rom. say about, 10%.

anyhow.i hope i helped you. it didn't spoil my xperia.
