My HTC Hero was delivered today and I am having problems with my contact list. I have 500 plus names and numbers that have been transferred from outlook to the hero and they have come over in the same groups as in outlook but I need more than that. On my windows based palm top (that I am hoping to replace with the hero) I can search for either a persons name or the name of the company they work for.
About 400 of my contacts are work related and I might only use them once or twice a year and without being able to search for a company name I can not find them. It is further complicated because in a lot of cases a company name might have 3 or 4 different people under it. Does anyone know of a contacts app or upgrade that would give me the functionality that I am looking for?
I've had my Captivate for a few weeks now. I've noticed since day one that the search button 'hard button' on the lower right of the phone, mysteriously 'pressed itself'. The first few times I figured I pushed it on accident with my pinky or something. That Is Not The Case. I know I'm not going crazy but every once in awhile, the hard button lights will go on and the vibrate (I have vibrate set to on) will go on and the search will pop up. All on it's own. This happens at least 5 times a day. If not more. It doesn't do it on any one specific page, it does it no matter what I'm doing on my phone. Sometimes I'll literally watch it just laying in my hand when my phone is on and the search will pop up.

Since Bing is the search engine of choice on the Fascinate, what function will holding down the button serve? Will it still allow Google Voice commands? If not, I think that's a deal breaker for me.

for some reason its showing all emails including read emails, how'd i change it back to show only unread emails (across all accounts)?
what the default behaviour of the back button is, as far as the Android platform is concerned.
For example, in the Contacts Application, if I am creating a contact, I just key in a name, and the press back button, the contact is saved with only the name. Fair enough. But, I then edit this contact to include a phone number and press back button. This contact is updated which now includes the phone number. I again edit this contact. This time I remove the name, as well as the phone number and press the back button. I get a message saying, "Contact doesn't exist". In this case, it deletes the contact. :(
In the mail appllication, while composing, when I press back, it goes to the drafts folder. Thats good. But, if I just have to cancel this, and I don't want this to go to drafts folder. For this, I have to open the menu, and select "Cancel".
Got an activity that extends ListActivity. The list is backed up by a custom adapter that extends BaseAdapter. -- getListView().setFocusable(true); getListView().setChoiceMode(ListView.CHOICE_MODE_SINGLE); -- I do a simple (getSelectedItemPosition() == == ListView.INVALID_POSITION) check in onPrepareOptionsMenu() to disable the items that require an item to be selected.
Now, what I do after launching the activity (the action takes place under emulator, ver.1.1) an what it looks like: 1) Hit menu - the menu items are disabled - OK 2) Select an item with mouse wheel and hit menu - the items get enabled - OK 3) Click anywhere outside the list, repeat 2). The items don't get enabled - WTF? 4) Start from scratch, select an item hitting Del and moving mouse. The result is the same as for 3).
Why do these (3, 4) things keep happening to me?
I need to retrieve the orientation of my phone. At the moment i wrote this :
CODE:................
This code allows me to get the orientation of the phone if i leave the phone on a flat surface and i rotate it over the surface.
What i did not understand is why if i move the phone upwards the value of this.actual_orientation[0] ,which is the rotation on the zed axis as described [here][1], the value increases although there was no rotation.
Did someone know what happens?
Another strange thing..
I tried my application in the office at work and it had the strange behaviour i described before..
I tried in the same office(same situation) a compass app that i took from the market and it has the same behaviour of mine..when i moved the phone upwards the value changed consistently..
I tried in the same office(same situation) the i-phone compass and it didn't have that strange behaviour!
Then when i arrived at home i tried both, my application and the compass app of my android phone, and they worked!even if i move upwards the phone the value are stable...
I have an application with two activities, A and B. A is the root activity, which then starts B.When the stack looks like this: HOME > A > B and I select A from the launcher, I want it to resume the task without clearing the stack, so B is shown. Right now this is mostly working. However. In certain circumstances this occasionally does not work. What we see in this situation is that invoking A from the launcher will create a new instance of A and add it to our task's stack: HOME > A > B > A If we go back to home and select A again, we'll get another one: This happens if, and only if, we uninstall the application completely using the application manager, and then reinstall it, via a file browser. Installing the application with adb does not cause this problem to appear.In addition, when this problem manifests, if we then reboot the device, the problem goes away and everything starts behaving correctly! This is smelling suspiciously like a launcher bug can anyone shed light on this? This is using Eclair on real hardware (not the emulator).Update I have more information. It seems this is an Android core bug; see http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=5277 in the Android bug tracker. Apparently running an application just after it's been installed by pressing the 'Run' button will run the application in a subtly wrong way. It's also still extant on Froyo, not just Eclair. Does anyone have any suggestions as to any possible workarounds?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to override the behaviour of the ENTER key of the virtual keyboard so that:

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a FrameLayout view which contains one (MapView-like) control and some additional buttons overlaying it. (the layout xml is below).
I want to allow the user to pan/scroll the main view using not only touch but also the Trackball.
The problem is - using the trackball just switches the focus between all the controls on the layout, and I cannot seem to find a way to contain the onTrackballEvent to just the MainView. code...
I have a pretty standard iPhone app that creates a series of around 7 unique Activities initialised by Intents.
However if the app crashes on the 7th Activity, the app restarts on the users phone around the 5th activity. The problem then is the info gathered from activities 1-4 is null, meaning the app is useless and the only way to get the app working again is to either continually press back or else kill the process.
Why does this behaviour occur, and is there a way to force the app to start back at the first activity when it crashes.
I downloaded the update yesterday evening, and today I've noticed something pretty weird in my calendar. On the phone (HTC Desire) every day is stuffed full of dozens of repeating appointments, mainly birthdays. These are set to recur not just on the day they should be on, but on every day of the year. These appointments are only on the phone calendar, not on my online Google calendar. What is even more bizarre is that these repeating events come from my old Palm OS device. I don't ever remember importing them to the phone!
It makes no difference whether I use the phone's built-in calendar or Jorte (which is what I usually use). Forcing the phone and google to sync makes no difference either.
Does anyone know what's going on here? The calendar on the phone is now effectively unusable.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI would like to create a search in my app which acts like the map search in the Google Maps app. I have creates an an auto complete text view which updates dynamically based on the results of the Geocoder.GetLocationByName() Method.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWhen implementing search in my application, I'm including some search context info depending on the activity where search is invoked. In one of those, I'd like to implement type-to-search as well, but the standard method of adding search context info doesn't work in that case... the onSearchRequested() method in the activity is never called. Is there any way to include search context info in a type-to-search invocation, or am I stuck with only the Search key and menu option?

My application involves doing some calculation on the first activity and sending the information to the second activity. So while the calculation is being done , I want to show a activity / progress / busy indicator on the first activity , before going to the second one. Is there any way of doing so, or an sample code that does the same. I was also looking out for the same by calling the calculation method after a delay so that the progress bar is shown first before the calculation is done , but this has also failed.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am extending the normal android.widget.ProgressBar.This rotates it fine, however I am having alot of sizing issues. It seems as though I have to set the width and the height of the control to be the same thing or else I run into alot of clipping issues. Basically, I want to have a progress bar that, once rotated, is 50dip wide and fills the screen vertically. Can anyone think of a way to do this? Also, it doesn't seem to be actually drawing the progress properly, but I will revisit that once I get the clipping sorted out.
