Not sure of any native way, but you can see if a phonebook app will let you do it. There is an app called phonebook 2.0 which is kinda nice, not sure if it allows it though. This is a good idea for an app though, it could intercept calls and feed it to the incoming call screen, might delay you receiving calls, however.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] stealz0r:
still no news on this?

I'm very interested in this topic, especially because I am getting quite a few ad-calls from similar numbers.

I am surprised this is not implemented yet.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] neumannon:
I am also interested in this. I have been searching around the internet for a solution but I haven't found any solution. Anyone figure out how to add a range of phone numbers to a single contact without having to add every number manually?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] TheWarrier:
Very good idea. Someone solved it?

Is there a way of changing app defaults? Reason I ask is I include LauncherPro and change a couple of options once I start it up and it would save time having them setup already...I take it I'd have to edit the APK but don't know where to start...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] time_shock:
I've got my haptic feedback on when I press the soft capacitive buttons on my N1. I've been noticing over the past few weeks that after some period of inactivity, if i start using the phone and its soft capacitive buttons, the vibrator feels weak each time i press the soft capacitive buttons.

Then if I were to press the buttons repetitively until I feel the full vibration strength, it would remain strong on each trigger until the next period of inactivity. Is this a (mis?)feature or a defect which causes the vibrator to power off and take some time and power to turn back on to full strength?

I haven't actually tested how long a minimum period of inactivity would cause this but I'm guessing somewhere between 5 to 15 minutes.

Does anyone else experience this?

I've just put a over 500*500 cover into my i9000, but the resolution become very bad in the music player. Does anyone have this kind of problem? And how can I fix it?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] tameracingdriver:
Don't know what the solution is, but I have this problem too.

I think it is because the player is only using the thumbnail file for its cover art, hence it looks blocky. It does not seem to use the original file.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] poluks:
Yeah I have the same problem. I Tried to tag the mp3 files with another jpeg file... didn't work no matter the size of it. Indeed the thumbnail may be in cause...

Let me know if you find a solution, it's very annoying.

I'm the only one in the french forum "frandroid" to encounter this problem

THANKS
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Maverick777:
Looks like this may be a problem with how Android handles album art. I tried the stock player and bTunes. Both have the same problem.

My album art is 300x300 minimum and they look like crap on both players.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oldbonesmcgee:
Hi, I hope this hasn't been asked, I searched and had a look through a few pages manually and couldn't find anything.

I seem to have a problem sending emails from my hotmail account on the HTC Desire. I have an HD2 set up with my account and it works fine, but my friends desire set up with MY details will receive my emails but not send them. Has anyone come across this before. I've been through the settings and they match up with what is listed online.

Thanks in advance

(again hope its not already been asked)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MasDroid:
Check your account settings and apply these settings:

Outgoing:

Outgoing mail server address - smtp.live.com

Security type - TLS

Server port - 25
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oldbonesmcgee:
Hi, yeah I've checked through these and they perfectly match the settings on the phone. I've even registered myself for Gmail, set up the phone to receive the Gmail emails (which it does fine) but it will also not send from the Gmail account.

The messages disappear, they go to sent items not outbox. But just never seem to reach the destination. (tested the destination several times by sending emails from my HD2 and its working fine)

Thank you anyway though
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MasDroid:
Try changing the outgoing server port to 587 and that should work for you.

If not, are you rooted or running the stock firmware? Have you tried a hard reset to eradicate any potential software bugs?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oldbonesmcgee:
Yeah I saw someone had 587 and I tried that. I think I have found the problem (after saying I tested the destination thourghly) emails sent from the Desire are being rejected by our mailscanner. However when sent from my HD2 they arrive fine. But when I sent an email from the Desire to another hotmail account it worked. When sending to a yahoo account it arrived and then instantly disappeared again into junk. So I guess now I would ask...do you know why the emails are being put into junk when sent from the desire, but the same email from an HD2 doesn't?

Thanks
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MasDroid:
No idea mate. I thought it could be something to do with your mailscanner config on your mail server but like you say, it receives email ok when sent from your HD2 :S
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oldbonesmcgee:
Yeah definitely a weird one, I guess I'll have a tinker and see what happens, if I get a result I'll post it up incase anyone has the same problem in future.

But thanks for your help :D

[Desire General] Daelyn:
/system/etc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf

Manually ad your ad-hoc network in WiFi settings.

Turn off Wireless

Edit /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf

ap_scan=2
and
mode=1 (inside the network config in the same file)

Use PowerControl widget to turn off/on as going in to WifiSettings will mess up WPA_Supplicant.conf again.

Maybe doing a proper config in /system/etc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf via recovery mode will sort it permanently instead?

Same here for the Milestone.

Can someone give me pointers on how the patch gets applied to the wpa_supplicant? I suppose it needs to be decompiled and then recompiled but I've never done that so I'm not sure how involved it is or what tools are needed.

Just in case it's a quick job for someone in the know like you here is a link for the Milestone wpa_supplicant http://dl.dropbox.com/u/904989/wpa_supplicant ;-)

[General Questions and Answers] gaga111:
Hi,

google led me here and i saw that questions like this were answered pretty well here, so ill try my luck.

i found the htc aria on the HTC US website and i like it pretty much. its just like an HTC hd mini with android.

i doubt it will come out in europe since we have the hd mini and wildfire here.

unfortunately the aria is AT&T exclusive.

i found out that you can buy the phone at retail price in the US and unlock it.

so im wondering if it would be working here in europe (germany).

will i have the full functionality in europe?

will i get updates such as android 2.2?

will the branding of the phone restrict anything?

ps: i know the phone is pretty new but i hope there might be someone who can help :D
[General Questions and Answers] heints:
I`m also searching for new phone and fell in love with the Aria in a video review I found in youtube. So would this phone be operational in EU or will there be something similar for EU rolling out from HTC soon?

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hopoffbaby:
Hi all,

I have been browsing this forum for a while now and finally decided to register.

After getting incredibly frustrated waiting for HTC and T-mobile to get their act together and release 2.1 I followed the guides on here and rooted my G2.

I originally flashed VillainROM10.3 and then upgraded to VillainROM12. Both of which are great!

I have since been playing with the CPU speed. I see many people on here claiming CPU speeds of ~750Mhz, however the most I seem to be able to get out of my phone is ~650Mhz (I'm using OverclockWidget from the market to set the frequencies). Is this a problem anyone else has experienced? If so is it down to my phone having a duff CPU or could the problem be with the ROM or the widget I'm using. Whenever I set the phone to anything higher than 650 it either just freezes or reboots itself.

Thanks Guys (and girls?)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
It's as simple as; some phones simply can't handle higher MHz;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hopoffbaby:
So if I flash for example SuperHero which is supposed to be clocked by default at 691Mhz will my phone freeze on boot or is it smart enough to figure out its max speed.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
It will probably freeze but there are kernels the isn't overclocked that high by default;)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hopoffbaby:
So I don't mean to keep going on about it but when I flashed VR12 the description said:

...

- 19MHz to 748MHz OC kernel

...

However when I run it the default speed its using is 619? Is that normal?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Yes. Many ROMs aren't set to the highest available clock speed by default because there are phones like yours that can't handle it:D

That's the one I use, and it charges both my phone and spare battery perfectly.
[Nexus One Accessories] mikeybags:
That one gives the appearance that the microUSB plug is pretty much the only thing holding the phone up. Is this the case? Because that concerns me...that connection is already seemingly loosening up, my car charger only charges the phone when the cable is in at a certain angle now, and when a cable is in I can wiggle it back and forth quite a bit. I don't want to put any more stress on that than I have to.

Opinions?

Don't worry about the phone being held by the micro usb only, it's a trick of the eye.

The phone actually clicks into the dock and doesn't move one inch.

Excellent value for money.
[Nexus One Accessories] mikeybags:
Damn....I went ahead and bought the one I linked to above, thinking that you get what you pay for. It's on its way now...I guess I'll see if it was worth the extra money.

Also bought an extra stock battery, don't know how I feel about all of the aftermarket ones.
[Nexus One Accessories] mikeybags:
Update for those interested -- I received this dock yesterday, and it's quite nice. Very solidly built, the phone sits in it very nicely, and you can plug it in via the provided USB cable to your computer, or plug the USB cable into a provided USB/AC converter (a plug with a USB opening, basically). Since I haven't used the $20 one listed above I can't really compare, so I can't honestly say this is worth the $30 difference, but I don't foresee any problems with it, and I saw a couple of complaints in the reviews for the other one, so I'm happy.

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] XERO_Racer:

Anyhow, I cannot download from Europe 1 or 2 locales, but can from US, although when I tap on the .exe file once transferred to my device, nothing happens - anyone else experience similar?

In addition, where can I find out the version information of HTC messages so I can check my current one?

[Liquid S100 Android Development] kidoucorp:
I have warned you about warez content. You should have replied to my mp before editing your post and put your links back. Anyway, this the last warning.

If you include Titanium Backup FULL in your rom, THIS IS warez. Even if it's just a key setting or a file to change, this doesn't matter. Providing a paid apps is forbidden here (Even if you have regulary brought it, in this case you can just download it from the market, so no point to include it in your rom). This is also valid for any other paid app you would have included in your rom (I don't know others apps, so no idea).

So, I can't check right now if the version of Titanium Backup included is the FULL one, but if it's the case, this would result in an ban if it's not removed within the next day.

Thanks.

edit : oh, btw, if there is no more warez in your rom and you removed the full version of Titanium, there is no more problem, hope you understood that
