Android :: Last And First Name Sorting In Contacts?
Jun 28, 2010I was very confused when I looked at the list of my contacts the first ftime after syncing them to the Desire. Only then I realized: this thing is sorting first names first! I find this most annoying and unusual. And worse: I found no setting, yet, that would allow me to choose the sorting.

Jun 8, 2010On the Nexus One and I guess non-SenseUI, I could change how my contacts were sorted, "last, first" or "first last". On the EVO, I can't seem to do that. But on Favorites in the 9x grid, it sorts them "first last".

Nov 19, 2010I just switched from a Nokia N95 to an HTC Desire on Android 2.1 (Froyo isn't out in the Middle East yet I guess). I'm having a lot of trouble getting my contacts on to the Desire. On setting up the phone, it has pulled my contacts from Gmail & Facebook, which I don't really need. I will not be calling or mailing most of the people on that list. There are a 1000+ contacts on those lists and I don't need all of them on my contact list. I tried to use the Nokia Ovi Suite to sync contacts, but for some reason I was not able to transfer them onto the PC. So I copied them all onto the SIM card and then put the SIM into the Desire and exported them to the phone memory.
The problem is that on copying them onto the SIM on the N95, I have multiple entries on the list. For contacts with more than 1 number under them, there are separate entries for each number, with the same name. Is there a method to group them the same way they were earlier i.e. One contact entry with a Home, Mobile, & Business number? Do let me know. It will hugely helpful. The only other way I can think of is to sit and enter all the numbers manually!
Nexus :: Exchange Contacts Sorting
Mar 19, 2010I have the At&t N1 and set it up with my Exchange server. The biggest issue I've run into is that the phone seems to ignore my File As setting for the contacts. Some of them are sorted as "first last" and others are "last, first", even though in Outlook they're all the same. I've removed the account and set it back up again with the same result. Actually, after removing the account, the contacts didn't clear either, neither did the calendar.
I got the trial version of Touchdown, which eventually cleared the phone's contact list, but I could never get it to sync its contact database with the phone's. According to their FAQ there should be an option for it, but that never shows up for me. It doesn't really matter to me if I have to use Touchdown to accomplish this or not, but if I do, then I want it to sync to my phone's database because I like the Favorites tab
Motorola Droid :: Outlook Contacts And Sorting
Nov 13, 2009After a bit of fiddling I was able to sync my Outlook email, calendar and contacts. It looks great and I'm quite pleased except for one thing. The listing of my contacts is by first name then last. Unfortunately there does not seem to be any way to have the Droid reorder the contacts list by last name first. I've spoken with other Droid owners and they have no problem with first name then last, but for me it's a real time waster having to "find" a particular individual, as for many of them I don't know their first names, just last. Is there a way that I am unaware of to sort the contacts by last name first? Our IT guy discovered a work around, but it entails going through each of my contacts and changing the way the names are displayed in the "Full Name" category. For over 200 contacts this will take some time.

Jun 26, 2010I'm looking for a detailed App for sorting and categorizing all of my contacts. I have 700 phone numbers, and am a junior in college, so needless to say, sometimes it's nice to only see female phone numbers. Also, if there is one where you could sort people by key words like soccer, school, parties, etc. Also, with the Verizon network, is there anyway to send texts to more than ten people at once? Is there anything like that out there available for my droid? Is there a way to sort/edit my contacts on my computer? I feel like it would be much easier.

Sep 27, 2010Is it possible to actually re-sort an Android SQL DB? for example, I want to resort the Bookmarks DB. I can query the data and sort it with "Browser.BookmarkColumns.TITLE + " ASC" in the query but this will only sort the list shown to the user and will not sort the DB itself. Therefore, if a user uses my app to sort the Bookmarks by Title(ASC) and then goes to the Android Browser Bookmarks - the order will remain default (other than the one selected on my app).

Android :: Android Contacts - Incorrect Localized Collation / Sorting
Nov 22, 2010this is my problem: I'm writing an alternative contacts app which is specified to work with A LOT of different languages and alphabets. When querying names in my own language, Swedish, the names using umlaut characters are sorted in an illogical manner to me, but logical to unicode i suppose:
Should be/Swedish style: A, B, C, ..., Z, Å, Ä, Ö.
Query result: A, Å, Ä, B, ..., N, O, Ö, P, ...
I assume this will be a problem in any language that deviates from the latin alphabet. All tests I've made are on the emulator. My dev group are making changes to the framework so low-level answers are welcome as well.....
General :: HTC One S - Picture Sorting In Gallery
Aug 16, 2012I'm fairly new to the Smart Phone. When I go into my picture gallery, is there a way to sort pics? By this I mean make a folder for say, car pics, another for friend pics...etc.. and put the pics into the specific folders, without having to hook it up to my computer with the USB? I find it pretty annoying that my pics are all just scattered throughout one area. I'd prefer to have them organized. Any settings or apps I can get to accomplish this.

Jul 23, 2010I am coming from the iPhone camp and got the Captivate to replace my old iPhone 3g. So i am used to, and spoiled by the mindless simplicity of using it. I have spent all most all day, every day since monday, when I got this thing trying to get it to work how I want it to work. The phone came with a HORRIBLE "user guide" that was 5 pages long and show you really only how to put the battery in, and make a simple call. The 140pg PDF one i found on line was still of little help, and samsung support is just rediculous. It seems pretty crappy to me to expect the user to have to do so much second hand research to use their product.
1. Kies is garbage, I havent been able to get it to work. When it finally did detect the phone, it said it need a new driver and it has been at "installing driver 0%" for 3 days, I tried double twist, which is really quirky, but finally got music on my phone, but had to create playlists via the phone as it ignored the ones I made in doubletwist... During the syncing, the phone would randomly connect/disconnect over and over and over, finally it went thru.. Is there any better way to get music on the phone...............

Android :: Sorting ListView ?
Apr 14, 2010I'm only starting with Android dev, and while the Milestone is a nice device Java is not my natural language and I'm struggling with both the Google docs on Android SDK, Eclipse and Java itself. Anyway...
I'm writing a microblog client for Android to go along with my Windows client (MahTweets). At the moment I've got Tweets coming and going without fail, the problem is with the UI.
The initial call will order items correctly (as in highest to lowest)

After the tweets are processed, I'm calling adapter.notifyDataSetChanged();

Is there a better way to go about sorting ListViews in Android, while still being able to use the LayoutInflater? (rowLayout = t.GetParent().GetUI(t, parent, c) expands the UI to the specific view which the microblog implementation can provide)

HTC Incredible :: HTC Music Player Sorting - Art
Aug 30, 2010The stock music player on ROM I am using (Virtuous 2.3) is, I assume, the latest out with the most recent OTA (8/26?).
I am having a beast of a time getting it to play well with the phone. I had a similar problem using Third Wave, but did not have this problem with FrankenROM.
I see ONE album art, it isn't even the first artist by track name, alphabet or anything else. I am not sure exactly how the phone decided on this particular piece of art. It is the same art for every track. My tracks are no longer broken down by artist either, like they once were. It is a huge folder called "Unknown Artist" that is literally filled with all of my tracks.
Previously, in 2.1, my songs were all sorted problem by Artist>Album>Song. Each tab worked properly as well, though I sorted by artist most times. All of my tracks are in the same folder on the internal storage (EMMC). I have never had an issue with it prior to Third Wave and now Virtuous.
I keep my music on the internal storage because I presently only have a 4gb SD card and feel that it is sufficient for what I do with the phone, especially considering that I've got 8 gigs built into the phone that I should be able to use. That is all beside the point.
I searched prior to making this post and didn't see anything else relevant to the issue that I am having. Is anyone else plagued by this or a similar issue? Is there a newer/better/different version of the HTC Music Player that might fix the issue?
I doubt this makes a difference, but I had this issue with both the Stock kernel and the Hydra kernel. I am currently on the stock kernel because I just installed a kernel patch for Virtuous 2.3.
