I have been looking at Androids call log content provider and have managed to pull the data from it and display it in my own app. However I want to be able to write to the call log, is there anyway of doing this?

I am sick and tired of deleting duplicate entries in contacts and calendar. There is no rhyme or reason. I get some contacts duplicated numerous times. I get duplicate appointments and my new ones refuse to link to the PC. I have tried everthing that two weeks of constant googling can come up with. I am sooooooo GD sorry that I purchased this POS phone and from my point of view the Android system is also a POS.
Next time I am going to finally bite the bullet and get an iPhone.
If anyone has something new please let me know what to do. I have deleted ALL contacts in Google. I have deleted ALL duplicate contacts at least a dozen times. The stupid system still adds, at random, duplicate contacts and tasks. The stupid phone has even linked contacts with no reason or input from me. The calendar has put holidays in numerous dates. Columbus day was in the calendar seven times when I did the last cleanup (I have done 3 seperate cleanups today alone). Independence day was put on both July 4th and 5th. When I deleted it from the 5th it disappeared altogether. I thought my old Palm Treo was bad.
We all know that we cannot delete individual words in the dictionary ... however I found in thread in Android Applications that may be somewhat useful. I am posting it here becuase I dont know how many people check the other sections of the site.Here are a couple of the posts from that thread to explain.

How do you selectly delete numbers in your call log? All I can find is delete all. You would think someone would look at how a BB works and understand you don't always want to delete all your calls.
Is there a way to delete some of your call log and not all of it?

View 7 Replies View RelatedI want to add a contact just to my phone and not to my gmail account.Whenever I start to add a contact (phone, 208544.menu, +contact, create new contact,) the next thing it forces me to do is to choose an account to create the new contact under and it lists my 3 gmail accounts.I have no option to just put it on the phone.Any ideas here?We do the same thing on the Incredible but it gives us the gmail account and the phone to choose from but not on the Motorola.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI would like to create a table to store device settings. The table has three rows: id, parameter_name and parameter_value. The table was created by executing the following query statement: DATABASE_CREATE = "create table DATABASE_TABLE (KEY_ID INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT, KEY_NAME INTEGER not null, VALUE TEXT not null); and then the rows are stored by executing the following method:
private long insertRow(int rowParameter, String rowValue, SQLiteDatabase db){
long res = -1;
ContentValues settingsParameterValues = new ContentValues();
settingsParameterValues.put(KEY_NAME, rowParameter);
settingsParameterValues.put(VALUE, rowValue);...................
The problem with method insertRow() however is that it can't prevent duplicating the entries. Does anyone know how to prevent duplicate entries in this case?

View 3 Replies View RelatedThere are occasions where I create a new entry in my calendar on the phone and I end up with 2 entries for the same date and time. This is something I cannot seem to replicate intentionally. How can I set the refresh interval for syncing my phone with Google online?

I have double and triple contacts in my phone now. I've knocked out Google altogether as I never used it before my Droid (HTC Eris). I sync with my personal laptop and it is running Outlook. I also setup an exchange point for my work info and I get all of the *SAME* contacts with that. Is there anyway to delete the contacts off the phone without losing them in my exchange connection? Also, when I add a contact via the phone, I cannot figure out how to get it to sync into exchange.The current sync map I want to move to is:Exchange (work) --> Plaxo.com
Outlook (personal machine) --> Plaxo.com
Eris Droid --> Exchange only That is, if I can figure out how to sync manual entries on my phone to exchange!

View 3 Replies View RelatedThe calendar widget is frustrating me. I enter details about an upcoming meeting, hit save and the event appears. About 20 seconds later it disappears without me doing anything. I figured I would try to delete the app and reinstall it but when I go to settings/app/manage app and try to delete it, the "delete" function is grayed out. Any suggestions?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI think I've seen somewhere that it's still not possible to read Google Calendar entries? I tried to search the forum, but didn't find any relevant threads. They mostly contain questions on java.util.Calendar.
Can I read entries? I understand that it might be fragile if it still isn't in the public API, but I don't mind updating my code when the API becomes public. (I don't need to modify or create new entries).
I use Google Voice (love it) primarily because of it's visual voicemail on my Droid. I do have a Google Voice number, and I'm trying to decide whether to set the Droid app to "make calls using Google Voice" or not.
I have no problem with giving out a different number, and my placed calls seeing the GV number in caller ID.
My question is, does this affect how the call is actually connected, from a quality standpoint? I tired a call both ways, and the sound quality seemed a little bit different. But then, I am an obsessive compulsive weirdo.
Is there any difference in call quality or routing between making a native Verizon call and a Google Voice call on Droid? (Like, does Google voice actual use 3G to connect to Google server over the internetz, then place the phone call?)
