[Q] Separators in Gingerbread Dialer - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just updated my SGS to stock gingerbread.
Now I realised that my dialer will have separators (i.e. "-") added automatically to the numbers.
For example, 6123456789 will now become 612-345-6789.
How could I get ride of the separators?

Where do you see these seperators?, I've checked mine and I just have the normal unbroken string of numbers.

it is in the dialer...
which country/region do you set to? I am using English (US).

Calendar Color

Does anybody knows how to change the default color of the different calendars. These colors are used to differ the entries from different calendars such as goolge, exchage, weeknummbers.
I found that in 2.2 exchange entries are getting a color which is hardly readable (bad contrast). For 2.1 it was o.k to me.
I know that for "Cal widget" the default values can be changed but for "calendar pad pro" as well a the stadard calendar application the color can not be selected in setting.
Tank you !
would like to know how to do this as well. anybody?
In the meantime I have switched to Sense ROM where color is much better. No solution found for stock 2.2 ROM :'(

Full Unicode font?

I'm noticing that one quite prominent set of Unicode characters missing from the built in Droid Sans font is the International Phonetic Alphabet. For example look at the article:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urumqi
and look at the IPA for the English pronunciation: /uːˈruːmtʃi/
On my N1 and Milestone, the symbol between : and r is a box, and the symbol between t and i is also a box. I have a linguistics background so these symbols actually have meaning to me and I'd like to be able to read them on the go.
You'll see that there are some other symbols on that same page which appear as boxes. The same page viewed on my iPod Touch displays *all* of the Unicode characters. In particular the Arabic-derived symbols in the Uyghur language look awful on Android.
Is there anything I can do my rooted N1 to get full Unicode in IPA and all imaginable languages? Has anyone had any success with this?

Question mark character

Dear xda-community,
since I did a few things with my phone ( rooted, applied new font, lagfix ) I have a few problems with the display of text.
In some parts of the text, there are question marks in boxes.
Not like they replace real letters, but they are somehow appended to some text, for example for the menu entry of Weather and Toggle Widgets.
Any idea what this could be and how to fix it?
If you want screens or further details just tell me and i'll add it.

Edit: By switching back to the default font, I figured out that it was the custom font. It was called Comfortaa as used here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=752200
I used LauncherPro Plus with it and there were those question marks everywhere, maybe someone knows where this comes from, so I could make it work on my device.

Problem with date picker with Norwegian language

Hi,
I have noticed that the date picker does not show name of weekday or name of the month.
The date is represented like this:
7, 2010 3 18
Not very legible.
If I change to English everything is fine. Switching back to norwegian and it goes bad again.
Can anyone check if this is the same in every phone?

[Q] Adding Text to lockscreen

Hey all,
I've got this 4gs running cm7 nightlies and I'm wondering if there's an app (or another way) to add some text to my lockscreen. Thought? Thanks.
If you mean some text such as "Property of John Doe, if found call 555-555-5555" there's http://sites.google.com/site/paranoidandroidproject/
It works for me running a CM7 nightly on a 9020A, the only change I've noticed is that the lock pattern is bunched up a little, but that may be due to the multiple lines of text I put in there.
Along the same line of thought, I've added that info in my boot animation, which isn't too hard to do if you have an image editing program that has scripting capabilities.
