When I go to sleep for the night, I'd like the texts or calls from specific contacts (family members) to 'ring' through to my Galaxy Note 2, and have the texts or calls from all other contacts not 'ring' me while I'm asleep.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have been a Blackberry user for years, and finally ditched my old berry friend, for a Galaxy Nexus. Thus far, I have had to Google how to's for everything I've wanted to customize: ie ringtones, changing default tones, even the colour of my sms window. I've been able to figure everything out, but am stuck on creating custom tones for emails from specific contacts. With my trusted berry, custom tones for email and sms were linked together for my contacts. So whether I received a txt, or an email from "John", I would hear the specific tone I'd set for him. With my Nexus, I've learned the same is not true. I can only customize contact sounds for sms (and of course, only with an App, I really like Ringo btw). Emails, not so much. They all come in under the one tone, regardless of who it was from.
View 4 Replies View RelatedMy boyfriend has two email accounts on his phone. He wants to backup his personal contacts to his personal account and his more important contacts to his other account. When he tried to do this it doubled the contacts on his phone. (Basically went from 50 contacts to 100 contacts).
Is there any possible way of doing this?
When I set my phone up it loaded every singe contact from my GMAIL contacts onto my phone. I don't necessarily want all of these clogging up my phone, but when I go to delete them from my phone they also get deleted from my contact list in GMAIL. Also the same with emails. If I delete them on my phone, they get removed from GMAIL inbox.
My old blackberry would give the an option of "delete from phone" or "delete from phone AND gmail".
I have had androids for over two years now and am getting more and more concerned every time I download an app and seeing that it wants to READ my SMS message and Contacts.
Is there a way I can disable reading of SMS messages or any one of the other permissions by specific apps, or all apps?
Are we living in a world where any "joe schmo" can upload an app the to the app store and wait for those inadvertent downloads and collect all your personal information, and that's after all the time we spend protecting our identity and personal details?
I use Twicca for Twitter, which allows for different colors for the notification LED. I used to have it set for red on my Moto Droid, but it only flashes green on my Incredible. Anyone also use Twicca know what colors I can use?

View 1 Replies View RelatedWhenever I want to send a text message to my friend Bob, i'll type "bob" in the recipients name and no phone number will come up even though he is stored in my contacts. However, whenever i want to send a text to Jill, I simply type "Jill" in the recipients box in the SMS and her phone number pops up. In order to send a text message to Bob, i have to go into Contacts-->Search-->Send text. It's more of a nuisance than anything else and was wondering if there was a remedy for it. I have tried re-programming the contacts information into the phone but the problem still exists.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI would like to be able to automatically remove spam callers from my call log and not be notified they called. I've set up a contact that goes directly to voice-mail. I'm using google voice, so I can set the contact as spam, so it will put any voice-mails in the inbox. That took care of the ringing and interuption, but I'd still like a little more opaqueness.
Is there an app that can remove a caller from the log, or at least clear the notification? I've checked out the various call blocker apps, but thus far, I haven't been able to confirm if any can clear the notification. They mainly seem to answer and hang up.
I tried to assign custom ringtones for few people. I did go to People -> click contact name that I want to change -> under Information tap, click Ringtone -> change ringtone -> After I pick custom ringtone -> Click OK button. Simple and Easy. But, when I test with another phone that I already assign ringtone, it doesn't work!
I thought that it didn't save it, but it was still pointing my custom ringtone. Well, second thought that my custom ringtone might be working, so I go to Setting -> Personalize -> change default ringtone for same MP3 file. it works! However, I couldn't make it for specific contact. Is there any thing that I did it wrong or should I turn on or off something?
I am wondering if there is a way to forward calls from certain contacts or groups to a different number? Basically I have a group of contacts that I don't want to receive calls from during the day, so I want to foward those contacts to another number where they can leave a message. I don't want my Hero to ring or be alearting me that they called or that I missed their call.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI try to query contacts in a specific group by GroupMembership. But It only works fine with system built-in group "Starred in Android".
My codes is like this:
private static String[] GRP_PROJECTION = new String[] { GroupMembership.PERSON_ID, GroupMembership.GROUP_ID };
Cursor groupCursor = context.getContentResolver(). query(GroupMembership.CONTENT_URI, GRP_PROJECTION, "group_id=" + filterGroup_id, null, null);
Log.d(TAG, "number = "+ getCount());
If filterGroup_id is system built-in group id(Starred in Android), log.d() shows the number of contacts in group. But if filterGroup_id is my self-defined group id, log.d() shows the contacts of person in my defined group is always ZERO! Even there is actually some contacts in my defined group. Is this a bug for SDK1.5 R2?
Is this possible to do? I see where I can have seperate ringtones for each contact but what about different text notification sounds for different contacts?

View 3 Replies View RelatedEvery time I send an e-mail whether on my Hero or just regular Gmail on my computer, that e-mail address gets added to my contact list.This is very frustrating as I just went through and deleted about 150 different email addresses I don't need including about 75-100 craigslist ads.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI'm using the HTC mail app (and have also tried in the Gmail app) and want to send a message to 2 people who are not in my Contacts (and don't want to add them since this is a one-off type of thing). How do I do this? I tried typing in the first address and using a comma or a semicolon as the delimiter/separator before entering the second. I get an error saying that the address is not recognized.

I have a device that since being flashed with new rom (kept original boot.img) boots up and everything is seemingly okay....... BUT.... Once the device is locked however, it stays in Negative/Inverted color mode. I was wondering if there is a way to modify a script, xml, or the UI fragments so that this won't happen any longer. The only way to return to normal colors is to reboot the device, and rebooting 12-20 times a day is too much. I will also mention, although it's on 4.1.2, there is no option for inverted display mode under Accessibility settings.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to figure out if I can use NFC tags to open specific documents. I do repair on computers, and would like to start keeping my repair notes digitally, but want a simple way to open the correct notes for a device, and am thinking NFC tags could be a great way to do it. Walk up to a device, scan the tag, and have the correct repair notes open to start editing.
I'm having trouble finding specific information on the forum or in a general internet search.
