hey fellas
just wanna make sure its not just my i9000 SGS thats doing this
connected gmail app to my gmail account and email app to my hotmail account
my question/bug is related to the email app
all emails open ok ( and this is a random thing ) when clicked on but sometimes wont load unless i change the display mode from original to positive or vice-versa
is it just me or should this be reported as a bug ?
i like the positive view and would like to just keep it that way
what do you mean by positive and original mode?
the issue I have with my Emails is they stay on my phone for 2 days, then they totally get wiped out !!
I phoned Bell tech support and they were useless, they told me to phone samsung directely, I did so and they created a ticket for my Email problem
Waiting for an answer from Samsung
Will let you what they come up with
I would like to know how to set my phone up so that I get email notifications on my home screen. I have a shortcut to my mail inbox but it dosent show if mail has been received. ( only in the top bar) on my htc desire it would show on the shortcut itself how many I had. Im running on jm5 rooted and lag fix.

you will need to install a widget for the email App you are using

If you are using Gmail, it will show you the amount of new/unread email when you put the link on the buttons bar
if you like widgets then K9 email offers the option to create widgets on the desktop home screen to show unread email counts

So in under contacts there is this history tab, it shows everything that happened with a conact, calls, sms etc.
Even if, for example, you delete ur sms from ur message app, they continue to appear there.
How can I delete them or have it so they dont appear anymore? Filters reset whenever the app is killed on task manager.
Any help eill br appreciated, thanks

I installed OCLF and LauncherPro and now my Call Log in the dialer is showing SMS messages instead of just Calls. As I get a ton of text messages, my call log is getting really long and messy.
Anyone know how I can resolve this? I clicked on Settings while in Call Log but it won't allow me to restrict it to calls only. The only options offered is:
View by:
All logs
missed calls
dialled calls
received calls
sent messages
received messages
bump..
this is real annoying as the call log becomes super long.
bump..
would really love a solution to this.May be a log cleaner that deletes all the text logs ?
You mean in Contacts History?
Press Menu, select 'View By'. Deselect 'Message' and press 'Done'.
And messages do not appear in the history.

As stated in the original post, the call log only has the options to view by one of the following selections (not multiple selections): All logs, Missed calls, Received calls, Dialed calls, Received messages, and Sent messages.
If we could simply "uncheck" the 2 message options, this thread would not exist. We can only select one selection of the above choices. Further example: selecting missed calls would leave out received calls, dialed calls, received messages, and sent messages.
We would like something that only shows missed, received, and dialed calls (no sms).
So far, only the froyo builds are this way for the vibrant ROMs (except teamwhiskey's - i've tried macnut and axura which both suffer from this problem).
Is there a fix for this yet? I can't believe Google released Froyo with this dumb problem! There is no way to exclude SMS from the call log! My call log goes on for miles!
Can one of you XDA geniuses come up with a fix for us?
Ohh I hate this too. Its so annoying.
This is driving me crazy! Does anyone know if there is a replacement Call Log app that we can install in its place?
This is very annoying and for that fact I went back to ka5, does anyone have a way to replace the dialer app? I tried replacing the phone app but it gave me issues with connecting to the network.

For those who are rooted, I have bionix v rom installed and flashed the AOSP MMS app provided by Team Whiskey and this log annoyance is gone.

I may not answer your question about changing the 'call log' settings but this is what i do.
1. Go to 'contacts'
2. 'history' tab
3. Press the menu button
4. Then go to 'view by'
From there, there is a check list where you can select what kind of logs you want to see.
Couple of more steps to see the call history, but nonetheless it gives.you what you want.

Well the History app seems to work. But it brings up another question: why in the world are there TWO different call log apps in the native dialer? The "Logs" app doesn't resolve the situation, but to access the other call log app, you have to open the dialer, click on Contacts, then the History tab.
Maybe Darky can offer a custom fix in 9.3?

Ditto! This is driving me nuts! I am rooted and ready to add or delete whatever it takes to fix this. Would somehow downgrading from 2.2 dialer to the 2.1 api work?
try go contacts from the market, it provides a dialer aswell and looks much better than stock with all stock features and only calls in the log.

I posted a workaround for this in another thread which has somehow disappeared.
There are TWO call logs in the native dialer application. The first you get by clicking on Phone/Logs. This one is useless.
The second you get by clicking Phone/Contacts/History. Then click on the Settings button and create your filters. This one has all the features you need.
Hi.
I remember there was a function to let MIUI stock SMS app find your contacts when you try to send an SMS but I can't remember how to enable it.
For example, if I have to send a message to John, I just should type "J" and the system recognizes the rest. Now I'm using Handcent SMS to do this correctly but I would like to use the MIUI app.
Can please someone remind me the steps?
I'm sure there's a solution, I've read it somewhere!!
Thanks in advance!
When I had this problem I just found that the contacts number wasn't set as their mobile number. If this is the case for you just go to that contact and edit it

Thank you both.
I tried both solutions but with no results. I'm sure there's a fix for that!
EDIT: I got it! Messaging -> Settings -> Advanced settings -> Filter numbers
I think it's the same if you pass from MMS section.
Thank you very much!
Hi,
I want to block some phone numbers (add to black list), but it doesnt work on my
Galaxy S...
I went to Call settings -> All calls->Auto reject->Enable auto reject-> Create auto reject list. Then I added some number from my contacts, but this contact was still able to call me, although I had blocked it.
Do you know why this doesnt work? Is it possible to do it this method or I have to download some extra app for call blocking?
Thank you for answers...

I did exactly the same thing - set up the auto reject numbers, saved it & guess what - 30 mins later the SMS's continued. Didn't have the slightest impact. Best way is to do it through your service provider.
