[Q] how to question regarding an icon - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My friend has Galaxy S and due to an error she erased some of her icons from the Home screen. While most of them could be restored, I cannot find any way to restore the "compose message" (or was it "write message") which used to go directly to send an SMS. I'm not looking to add some specific contact, just the shortcut to send sms.

Well I'm not sure about this because I myself cannot find what you're looking for. However, why not use the text app shortcut?

Options are gone in contact icon dock.

Hi.
I hope you'll the problem I see in my phone. When you look at your contacts and click on the contacts name, this dock appereas and option you to send sms , email, call, skype call and so on.
If you install another email app and different sms app, it should show them as optional as well. I don't get that in my phone anymore. Please help me fix it.

[Q] MIUI can't find my contacts to send SMS - I can't remember how to do :\

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!

[Q] Can I display text messages on home/lock screen

Hello,
I have the ATT Galaxy Note and use it as my pager via text messaging. I would like to have text messages, with phone numbers, appear and stay on the lock/home screen when they come in until I look at them or reply to them. Is this possible to do with the Note? I don't want to have to unlock the phone and drill down into the apps every time I get a text to be able to respond to it. I was able to do this with my iPhone.
Thank you.
On my non-password lock screen I get a missed call & new SMS notice circle. holding and dragging that opens the relevant app. I cannot recall if I get this when I have a password set. I use Llama to set / unset the password depending on location so I don't need to unlock while at home or at work.
I also use SMS Pro from the Go Launcher Pro suite (although I do not use the launcher). It pops up a window with my latest SMS and lets me answer, delete, open or just close it.
I use the stock widget showing me emails. I cannot set that to unread ones only, and the colour difference of unread emails is not enough, but it's kind of OK.
That gives me all I need.
This forum is for the international galaxy note not the i717.

apps like handcent sms, pansi sms (not a bad app, was testing it today) or go sms allows you to achieve what you wish to do.
if you're talking about the full monty, including emails, etc, you could try Executive Assistant. This has more powerful features including lock screen information. be warned however if you use a passcode lock this will not work

[Q] Share Contact by SMS on ICS

Hi all,
When you go to share a contact card via the contacts app or by clicking attach in the SMS app. It appears ICS is missing this function.
I have seen a couple of posts on this but none mention a native solution.
So my question is: Is there a native way to add SMS to the stock ICS 'share list' for sending contacts, or is this something to do with either contacts or SMS not exposing their 'intent' correctly?
Thanks in advance.

Tap and hold on the number, it will give you the option to copy it ;-)
Thanks NoXiScz,
I'm aware of how Copy and Paste works in ICS
I'm looking for a native solution.
I have found an app that puts sharing by SMS into the contacts, but it doesn't seem to work the same way as the native did on Gingerbread.
Logicalstep
On ICS I used a phone dealer who have this function, for example rocket phone dealer.

On gb we had the option and now ics lacks it? What kind of evolution is this???

You may want to check your stock messaging app as any messages you sent or received from GoSMS, should also show up there.
