HTC Hero :: People Application And Truncated Addresses
Dec 11, 2009
On my Hero I have synchronised people's details to the 'People' application from my desktop Outlook using both the HTC sync and Companionlink. But either way, I just seem to get a truncated version of their physical addresses under the 'Find Home' field. When I hit that, I get a map I'm not looking for, and sometimes the full address, sometimes not. I can't see any other way of accessing the full address on the Hero - what am I missing?

Does anybody else find the display of addresses in People app to be very poor. Its all displayed on one line obscuring half of the address - even going into edit mode doesn't show the address in full unless you scroll down the edit box.
I use the People app for addresses quite a bit and it frustrating. Any alternatives out there?

When viewing an individual contact in People (Contacts, Address Book equiv.) the single address field contains the street, city, state and zip. (The Google Contacts, which is the source for the 'People' is also a single field for street, city ,state, zip.) The latter part of the field (zip, state and sometimes city), does not show up without clicking on the address, loading the map (with GPS running) and then clicking on the address balloon in the map.Is there an easier way that I should be doing this to read the entire address for a contact?

you would think that google would have had an amazing gmail app on their android os. Gmail app isn't even as good as their web version! Long emails have sections truncated with... at the end and I can't see attachment pictures even after clicking show pictures

I have all of my contacts linked to their respective facebook accounts, but the pictures that show up when I go to my People never update with the facebook pictures, they have stayed the same since the day I linked the two regardless of how many times the person has changed their default picture since then. Is there any way for me to change this so the pictures in my People update with facebook? Since they are linked I assume they should be able to do this.

I have the following code through which I am able to retrieve phone numbers. Somehow, I am not able to retrieve email addresses by using android.provider.Contacts.People API.
import android.app.AlertDialog;
import android.app.ExpandableListActivity;
import android.content.ContentUris;
import android.content.Context;
import android.database.Cursor;
import android.net.Uri;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.provider.Contacts.People;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.ExpandableListAdapter;
import android.widget.SimpleCursorTreeAdapter;
import android.widget.TextView;
import android.widget.ExpandableListView.OnChildClickListener;
public class ShowContacts extends ExpandableListActivity implements OnChildClickListener { private int mGroupIdColumnIndex;
private String mPhoneNumberProjection[] = new String[] { People.Phones._ID, People.NUMBER // CHANGE HERE }; private ExpandableListAdapter mAdapter;
@Override public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
// Query for people Cursor groupCursor = managedQuery(People.CONTENT_URI,
new String[] {People._ID, People.NAME}, null, null, null);
// Cache the ID column index mGroupIdColumnIndex = groupCursor.getColumnIndexOrThrow(People._ID);
// Set up our adapter mAdapter = new MyExpandableListAdapter(groupCursor, this,
android.R.layout.simple_expandable_list_item_1,
android.R.layout.simple_expandable_list_item_1,
new String[] {People.NAME}, // Name for group layouts
new int[] {android.R.id.text1},
new String[] {People.NUMBER}, // AND CHANGE HERE
new int[] {android.R.id.text1});
setListAdapter(mAdapter); }
public class MyExpandableListAdapter extends SimpleCursorTreeAdapter {
public MyExpandableListAdapter(Cursor cursor, Context context, int groupLayout,
int childLayout, String[] groupFrom, int[] groupTo, String[] childrenFrom,
int[] childrenTo) { super(context, cursor, groupLayout, groupFrom, groupTo, childLayout, childrenFrom, childrenTo);
} @Override protected Cursor getChildrenCursor(Cursor groupCursor) {
// Given the group, we return a cursor for all the children within that group
// Return a cursor that points to this contact's phone numbers
Uri.Builder builder = People.CONTENT_URI.buildUpon();
ContentUris.appendId(builder, groupCursor.getLong(mGroupIdColumnIndex));
builder.appendEncodedPath(People.Phones.CONTENT_DIRECTORY);
Uri phoneNumbersUri = builder.build();
return managedQuery(phoneNumbersUri, mPhoneNumberProjection, null, null, null);
} } @Override public boolean onChildClick(android.widget.ExpandableListView parent,
View v, int groupPosition, int childPosition, long id) {
AlertDialog dialog = new AlertDialog.Builder(ShowContacts.this)
.setMessage(((TextView) v).getText().toString())
.setPositiveButton("OK", null).create();
dialog.show(); return true; } }

In the address book, entries that have long addresses are getting cut off. How can I see all the address without going into edit mode?

I'm having a bit of trouble figuring out what information is stored how between google and my phone, particulalry with respect to my (postal) addresses. I noticed that if I add an address to a contact it shows up fine on my phone, but not in my gmail account (even after waiting several hours and manually syncing the phone). However, if I add an address in my gmail account it shows up in both gmail and my contacts on my phone. Furthermore, when I use google maps on my phone and hit "directions" I can start entering the name of my contact and it will pop up in the list for me to choose if I had entered it via gmail or the phone. But if I instead hit the little bookmark icon next to the box for the address and hit the contacts options, it gives me a list of contacts that have addresses, but only contacts for whom those addresses had been entered on my phone.I should also note that all my contacts are stored as google contacts and not phone contacts. But it does seem as if addresses are somehow being stored as phone only when I add them via the phone, and that this is somewhat intentional since choosing contacts in google maps lists only those phone-entered contacts. Does anyone understand what's going on here?

I was wondering, has anyone figured out how you can send emails via different addresses from the gmail app? I can send from 5 different ones from gmail's web interface, but can only get the app to use the default.

I use G mail and have my 5 email accounts running through it. I can compose and email and "select" which email account to send it from within G mail. However, in Android on an HTC Magic, you cannot select which account to send "from", you can only send from the g mail account (in the g mail app). Yes, I know you can configure each one with an I MAP account, but I don't want that. I use G mail to store everything. So my question to existing HTC Hero users is: In the G mail application on a HTC Hero can you send from multiple email addresses?

This might sound strange but I want to delete the history of my email addresses on my hero, I'm selling something on craigslist and when I reply to them from my computer or whatever it shows up on my phone and I'm like who the H3ll is this??? and then it dawns on me that it's someone I emailed about the POS Pre I'm selling
If that didn't make sense, basically when I go to shoot an email on my hero, as I'm typing who I'm sending it to, it shows a list of everyone that I've emailed starting with whatever letter I'm pressing, normally and most of the time that's awesome, but sometimes, like the situation I stated above it's a big pain in the arse.

I recently wanted to get some addresses I have stored in contacts and found that they only show up as "show on map". The problem is, quite a few of my addresses are really long and you can't see the whole address under the "show on map" option, and I don't want to map it! I just want to see it so I can write it on an envelope. I guess I could map it every time I need an address, which is a waste of time, but even then, some of the addresses are in other countries and the map func. fails the address disappears before I get a chance to write down all the info. Is there a way to actually view the entire address without the map part?
On a side note, does anyone know why I can't sync birthday info for contacts from google contact's? Mine never show up, I only get Facebook birthdays.
And while I'm at it, even thought I use mybackup pro, when I have to do a hard reset, all my stored ringtones for contacts disappear and i have to program them all in again.

I am trying to get a JSON response from our server and the response string seems is always being truncated when the string length reaches to around 5525 characters.I also tried this by using HttpEntity and reading the response stream. But that also truncates the string at approximately that length. I tested the link in my browser and it does return the complete JSON. So I am sure the issue is with my code in android.

When I'm reading my Gmail with the HTC EVO and I go to "Change Labels. My label list only shows 15 or so characters. Since I have nested labels (Google IMAP enabled) that is not nearly enough and it is impossible to read the last part of my Label. Which makes it hard to assign labels. Is there any way while changing a label to see more of the label name?

I was wondering if there was a way to see who is or isn't using your application on Facebook. For example, sets say I have an application X that a user Y has just connected to. I want to find out if Y's friend Z has allowed X or not.Then, if friend Z has not allowed/used X with Facebook before.I want to invite that friend to use X.Is there any way to do this using the GraphAPI and the Facebook-android-sdk?

My People seems to be syncing with Facebook fine (their status updates show up, and it uses their FB profile photo), but when I select "View Facebook Profile", I get the following error message: "The application People (process com.android.htccontacts) has stopped unexpectedly. Force Close."

Unless I'm crazy I remember being able to create custom field labels for the phone and email info in the original people app (all contacts are Google type) on my Incredible. If I created them on my phone; they showed up in my Gmail contacts. If I created them in Gmail contacts; they showed up on phone.
Now all I see on the people app label options are the standard ones with no option to edit/create a cutom as there was before. Is this the case after 2.2? If so I'd rather have 2.1 back. I loved that feature! Anyone else see this on their DINC?

I recently flashed my Hero to have SenseHero 2.2. Before that, I had a stock Orange Hero on Android 1.5.
In my phonebook, by that I mean the People app, I used to only show my Phone contacts and hide the SIM contacts.
Since I've upgraded, the only options I have in the View option in People is Google or Phone. But my SIM contacts are also shown, and I want to hide them.

I thought this thread might be a good way for developers to see the type of apps that people want, and hopefully write them.
I would like an app that shows me on a map which cell tower my phone is using, signal strength, etc.

I have an app where I want to list all phone numbers and the associated contact name.I see that there is the Contacts.People table for the purpose of getting all phone numbers and that there is a PERSON_ID to allow me to lookup the contact in Contacts.People.Great.Now I see that all the columns I want are already joined to the Contacts.People.Phones table. But that seems lucky in this case.How could I do the equivalent of the above statement in general if the implementer of the content provider hadn't been so nice as to join for me?

I've had my HTC Hero for a couple of months and finally think I've got to grips with the majority of its features. One of the things I really liked when I originally set it up was the fact that my contacts in People would sync up with anyone it recognised as having a facebook account and therefore provided their profile picture and birthday info etc. However, a couple of weeks ago all these pictures suddenly disappeared and I've no idea why - I can still get onto facebook fine and my contacts all seem as they were except they're all pictureless and it's really starting to annoy me. Has anyone else experienced this or is there any setting I'm missing or something I've done wrong??
On a completely unrelated note (although I may well post this seperately), I've recenly downloaded Handcent SMS from the market as I'd read that this was a good alternative to the original messaging application, but I don't know how to set this as my default SMS app and to get rid of the original off my home screen.

I can't seem to figure out how, but I recently met this girl, and we've been talking on the phone in the evening, and sometimes, I'll hear her voice coming from my pocket, and I'll dig my phone out and she'd be (at 2 am mind you) on the other end laughing at my horrible singing or whatever I was doing in the car. I called her 6 times yesterday from my pocket! Phone is locled and everything, 3 days ago, it was my mother. It's always the last person that called.so I can't understand how a locked phone is calling people like this!
