HTC Incredible :: Editing Default Action - Favorites Widget
Apr 28, 2010
How can I rearrange favorites and edit the default action for each favorite?
When you got to People and then to Favorites and long press a contact, the only options are:
- Call Mobile
- Edit Contact
- Delete Contact
- Send contact as vCard
I don't see the "default action" inside the edit contact menu. Those were the steps providing in the ERIS forum and it seemed to work for ERIS users, however, I don't see any such option in the Incredible.

I just got the HTC EVO and I have the favorites widget. Well, it asked me to assign a default action to each person such as call, bring up contact info, or email. I accidentally assigned "email" to one of my favorites, and now whenever I press her, it wants to send her an email. How do I change what I set as her default action?

A friend of mine has the HTC Incredible and asked me, since I have the Eris and they are pretty similar, how to change the default action in Favorite people. When he set up his wife as a favorite, he accidentally chose to "send text" as the default action. He wants to change it to dial her cell number. I read the instructions for my Eris on how to do this.It tells me "To change the default communication method for a favorite contact, press and hold the contact, and then tap Change default action."When I do this, I do not get an option to change default action. Same for him.

Would appreciate some help please.The question has been asked, but as far as I can see from searches has not been answered.I have contacts in my Favorites and they appear OK in the widget.How do I assign the default action that occurs when I press the icon.eg. dial the mobile number, or home phone, when both numbers are recorded in the contact?I know that I can press and hold the people entry for options, but I am looking for a one push option.I've learned so much from this forum in the last couple of days and my phone is looking fantastic thanks to everyone's help.

I did a reset on my phone to hopefully fix the lag. I was getting after froyo came out, but now I cant find the favorites widget to put on my screen. This is a bummer if its gone because I used that a lot.

I'm working on customizing some scenes and I cannot find a widget/program/shortcut for "Favorites" - this is the widget that lets you select favorite contacts for easy access. For example, the Favorites widget appears on the 2nd screen of the "HTC" scene. I've gone through all the widgets and programs and cannot find this.

So the one and only thing that I have to complain about with this phone is the serious lag when you tap a favorite person on the contacts widget. Its like a 3 second lag everytime. Any good apps on the market that would replace this widget? I love this phone!

I have the "favorites" widget on my Inc and I upload the photos for each caller and the pic looks crappy and pixelated. Why?! I've tried different size/resolutions for the sample pics that I'm using and still the picture looks grainy.

I entered a friend into my contact list and added him to my Favorites widget. I want to remove him from my favorites widget now, but not from my contacts list. How do I do this? It keeps deleting the entire contact. I've edited the contact and removed him from Favorites group and I've gone into People, Groups, & removed the contact from Favorites but when I go to my contact list, he doesn't show up anymore. Why?! If I go to the Favorites widget and add a new favorite then the contact shows up again. But if I just open up people and scroll down-no contact showing up!

I have one of my screens the the People Widget (HTC) and I was wondering if any of you knew how to remove the default action for a person on that screen.For example, I have the favorites group linked and after I clicked on a person and texted them, the Favorites widet now links that person's icon to texting them every time. Anyone know how to make it not do this?I would prefer the option of either setting a default action or just opening the contact so I could choose to email, text, GPS etc.

Wasn't sure exactly how to ask this, but here we go So, for example, I installed "Dialer One", a dialer replacement.So whenever I hit the "Phone" button, it asks how I want to complete the action. Using Dialer One, or Phone. And it gives me the option to "Use by default for this action".So, lets say I want to use Dialer One by default, but then I change my mind. How do I set it back to the default Phone.Obviously, this question applies to more than just the phone app. After writing all that I think the simple way to ask my question is- I really just want to know how to undo the 'use by default for this action' choices I may make in the future.

I just got the phone today and I can't find it where this widget is. It looks like the People "favorites" widget, except with web sites instead of your contacts.

I'm trying to cook a rom and i want to set a style (sliding tab) as a default for lockscreen and incall lockscreen. I think i have to edit or add some line in lockscreen_style_settings.xml that is stored in CMParts.apk
esxml
Or maybe i have to edit settings.xml stored in Settings.apk
esxml?
I think I have to edit CMParts.apk, esxmllockscreen_style_settings.xml because when i my backup's datadatacom.cyanogenmod.cmpartsshared_prefs there is a file named com.cyanogenmod.cmparts_preferences.xml that contain's some line's about lockscreen.
Here is the com.cyanogenmod.cmparts_preferences.xml line's:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8' standalone='yes' ?>
<map>
<boolean name="pref_trackball_wake" value="true" />
<string name="pref_install_location">0</string>
[Code] .....
I decompiled the CMParts.apk but i dont know which line's should be edited or what to add!

I actually noticed this on V2 leak as well when I set up my favorites list, and then select that person for the first time, I'm prompted to set up a default action - that default is never saved, and I have to repeat those steps in order to dial a number - anyone have this problem? Is there a step I'm missing?

I have one GMail account synced to my EVO. When I open up 'People' all my contacts I added through GMail are there. Looks great.
However, when I go to the Favorites widget and click + to add a contact to the widget, I get a list of pretty much everyone I've ever sent an email to through my GMail account. I only want my real contacts to show up there, I don't need the dude listed there that I sold my blender to on Craigslist from 5 years ago.

Does anyone know why I am getting a green circle with a 1 in it for some of my favorites on the favorites widget? I thought maybe it meant new facebook post, but one person has had no facebook activity in over two weeks and it just started yesterday.

When I select a person from my favorites widget, many times it shows phone numbers for a different person in my favorites list. If I go back and re-select, it usually will show the correct info. But not always.

I'm talking about the default clock/weather widget that is on the home screen...
Is it possible to make it so the widget shows weather info for a user-specified location? I was able to add an additional location once inside the HTC Weather app (by scrolling down), but I have had no luck finding anywhere to change the location that appears on the actual home screen.
It wouldn't be such a problem since it does correctly display my location (New York), but it is WAY off in terms of weather. For example, the widget is showing 72 degrees when it's actually 85. That's a HUGE difference and it's bothering me a lot.
I'm assuming it is pulling weather data from somewhere in upstate NY and not from NYC (where I am)? The manual entry I added is showing correct info, but it's very annoying having incorrect data showing up on the home screen and having to click into the widget and then scroll down to get the actual info.

In my HTC Favorite Contacts widget, I can't change the default action (like: SMS, Email, or Call). I only have the option to call.
I'm know that the Euro version had the option to change your default contact method for each favorite contact...Did sprint Disable this option on their hero? Anyone else having this problem? Lemme know if you find a way around it!

I've had my Hero about a week now and one thing that I've found annoying is that when you go into the phone application the default action for the call button is to redail the last number. I have inadvertantly made several (very short) calls by accidentally brushing the call button (or double click the physical on) before I have made any selection in the list.
Is there a way to disable this feature. E.g I wish to physically select or enter a number before the "call" button will place a call.
I did find a reference on this forum to "Not Call Log" which switched away from the screen after a call. I just want something that prevents me miss dialling in the first place.

In the Dolphin Browser, I clicked on a YouTube link and a "Complete Action Using" dialog box thing popped up. It gave the option of viewing the video in a browser or in the native YouTube app. There was also a "Make this action default" checkbox at the bottom. I accidentally checked that box and chose the browser, not the YouTube app. Is there a way to revise this default action?

I'm playing with the alternative Home app that comes with the SDK.
I can set this as default for 'Home' action.
I can unset this by -->Setting->Manage Application->My Alternative Home-> "clear defaults"
Question:
How to do this "clear defaults" by code?
I've browsed the forums but cannot find an answer.

I'm using an Eris at the moment, and favorites that were populated by default shows a card and prompts me for the desired action. I realize that selecting the name below the icon allows me to choose different actions, but I have very poor accuracy in trying to tap on just the name, so for contacts that I've added that I'm forced to choose a default action, it's very difficult for me to choose an alternate action.
The instruction manual says to "press and hold" the contact to change the default action, but that selects the entire widget to move or discard.
Does anyone know how to change the default action to prompt me each time I open a specific favorite contact?
I've seen this question for the Hero too, but with no answers. Posted on the HTC forum, but that's looking rather un-promising.

I am customizing native phonebook application as a third party application which can be launched by the same intent as the native application. I have installed that application in my G1 phone. When I have clicked on Contacts icon in launcher menu it a menu pops out and asks me to select which app to lauch i.e., native contacts or my customized contact application. I have selected my application and I have also selected to use this selection as my default choice. After that system never put a pop-up and whenever I clicked on contacts it launches my customized application.
Now my problem is, I do not know how do I change this setting i.e., tell the phone to put the pop-up again so that I can select native app or my app?
Does anyone has any idea?
