How Can I keep my call log forever?
I think the default setting I currently have is limited to 500 calls.
Thanx
well I installed an app that upload all my call log to my Google calendar in real time. its brilliant. I created a separate calendar called "my calls" and now I have a permanent complete history of all missed and received calls. its a free app call "call track" or something.
but I don't know if you can extend the built in call log length. mine seems to go back 30 days which makes my list freaking enormous.

Anybody got the apk for CallTrack? Doesn't show in Market for me...
yeah I just double checked and its called "call track", free in the market. I guess it doesn't show up in the market for you? its a great app exactly what would help you.

For some reason my sms time is a few hours off only on incoming messages. When I send a txt it shows it at the right time though. It makes reading txt convost a lot more annoying. Any ideas?

It's an Rogers issue... search the market for smstimefix. put in your offset, and all future texts will show the right time I've had this issue on 2 unlocked android phones...
Thanks I will try it. I managed to fix it just setting + 0 on the time zone and setting time manually

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.
I'm looking for a simple app on android I cant seem to find, basically, I want to start using my google voice number, so any time someone sends a sms to my phone I want to auto reply "please us this number from now on...."
But it seems like there are no apps that do just that? Or maybe I'm just missing something. Thanks all.
Wouldnt mind if it delete the original message after replying either
Try a quick search in the market for "auto sms". Hope its what ur looking for.

For the most part, that should work perfectly. I'm using the google voice number so I only have to carry my work phone. No way I can get that app to delete the text messages people send to me, basically making it just reply a message and delete the inbox?
I'd recommend Tasker. It's a paid app, but is easily worth the money. With it you could set up your phone to forward the message to your google voice number, send the response to the person, and then remove the message from your phone.
Tasker is an extremely useful app that lets you do just about anything you can think of with your phone, what i've suggested is just the very tip of the iceberg.
Whenever I get a message from someone, all I get is their number. I realized it was only happening with my facebook synced contacts. I believe its because the facebook contact number has dashes (555-555-5555) and when I receive a text, it doesn't (5555555555). Is there a quick way to fix this? Or do I have to add every number and join it to that persons contact?

Sorry that I couldn't get back until now, but I'm using go SMS. But it does it in any messaging app. I tried checking the stock SMS app, and the same thing happened.

It is due to the way the numbers are saved. You will have to link them and make sure they are set up the same way as the ones that work.
If you're using google sync too you might want to go to your contacts and edit your google contact details cuz I think the contact list uses google details over facebook ones
