Hi guys, I have just flashed MIUI and I love it, my favourite rom so far. I just noticed though that in contacts the number (i'm in Australia) is shown as XXX-XXX-XXXX. Is there any way to remove those dashes or change them to XXXX-XXX-XXX? It's just what i'm use to here down under, its in no way a deal breaker if it can't be done though. Thanks

I would try fixing permissions from ROM manager.
Unfortunately that didn't help :"(

Ok well in that case I would try wiping cache and data from whatsapp then if that doesn't work try uninstalling/reinstalling it.
Already done it .. no luck
Is it just me or every body have the same thing !

Not everybody but yes it is a very common issue. Now sorry but I guess there is nothing to do unless you want to maybe try a clean install but I'm not even sure that is going to fix it.
i have the same problem with MIUI on Milestone. I found the only way to solve for my device is to add international code before normal phone numbers for the contacts. It sucks!!! Finally revert to stock rom!!
have the exact same problem . please someone comeup with fixing the bug. i want to use the miui rom and whatsapp.
I fixed it by tagging all the contacts to "my contacts " label .. and it worked
Sent from my Nexus One using Tapatalk
That actually did the trick. Thanx!
I had my contacts sorted in groups as well; deleting it all from the common my contacts-folder. A logical decision because this way there wouldn't be duplicates in my Gmail Contacts.
U know... I googled this but no solutions to be found. Of course I had to check with XDA first. Maybe Google should scan XDA a lot more often, 'cause solutions are always here

Yes you will lose root if you take the OTA. The biggest change that was made between 2.12.405.7 and 2.30.405.1 is that they have fixed all of the temp root exploits. So not only will you lose root, but you will not be able to re-root until a new root exploit is found.
Thank you for quick response.
OMG! It is good I haven't updated!
Looks good to me. Picasa albums add in working. Screen text a better size. Don't know what full list of changes is?

It's already been done. If you're looking for a ROM in future, the Android Development section of the forum is your friend.

Scrub that, Picasa add in stops working. As useless as it ever was.
Pretty fed up with HTC, they are nowhere near the Company they used to be. Flaky software, useless support, the farce of HTCSENSE.
Horrible.
After reading a few threads about this update, all I ever see is people querying and *****ing about losing their S-OFF. Is there an actual change list available so I see what exactly has been done?

I haven't seen anything. Have you checked the HTC Support site? That is where such information would originate from if it is available.
Surely you cant update if your S-OFF anyway...atleast I cant!
text prediction(suggestion) in portrait mode not working
Hi guys, I have successfully updated to this version.
However the most frustrated thing is when I am typing text in portrait mode, no matter what app (web browser, calendar, message, map, or 3rd party app, etc) I am typing in, the word prediction (suggestion) does not work anymore (or it does, but I could not see all the possible suggestions as I used to if I misspell something, then it just automatically picked one suggestion to replace my word)!! Only when I change to landscape mode they start to appear.
This never happened before this update, and also, before, when I typed on the text box, the keyboard would appear as well as the cursor positioning where my text will display. So I could still see part of the original screen of the app. But now, the text box basically expands a lot so I could not see anything else on my screen apart from the white, ugly, big text box which takes more than half of my screen and the keyboard, nothing else!!
I am wondering if anyone else who updated to this version has the same issue. This is bad, bad, and bad!!
Cheers!!

Ok, I just rebooted the phone twice and everything goes back to normal. I am sure I had rebooted the phone more than once before, but they did not work until just 5 mins ago...

Since the the X8 and the X10 are not very far off I thought I would try but none of that worked, does anyone have a clue of how to display MY image/avatar in messages, I did all the steps that I could from that post and nothing.
INFO: X8 Froyobread v0.23b - with UI CyanogenMod CM7 v 2.2.1
thanks in advance for the help.
FYI. It's not really important i just like to see a good image through my sms conversations.
Just save your own number to your contacts then add a picture to it then your picture will show up in conversions

No buddy I did that just like that post said to and no good.
So I've added my own number to the contacts.
I checked other options and still nowhere to be found.
what else can possible be a solution? any other thoughts, anyone?
EDIT: Nevermind people thanks for the help, didn't realize that a lot of changes can be done after you restart your phone. got my image in the avatar working great. just having my own number in the contacts helped.
Try go sms pro sir. It is much better than stock sms. I even remove the stock from my phone.

Not a bad point, how can I remove the stock I already have Handcent on mine and its way cooler with lots of mods, but it keeps interfering with my stock when i receive i have to be checking on both to remove notifications.
I would also like to remove, MAPS, Market, Gmail (Things that I can't use since I'm outside of the US and no internet connection unless WI-FI)
hey guys,
testing the chinese xt883 stock rom these days.
apart from extensive battery drain i have one big problem:
all my contacts (which are about 500) are displayed in contacts view but when someone calls me the phone won't show the assiocated contact name to the number but only the caller id itself!?
when i go to call list and add the same number again to the contact the next time the person calls me the contact name is correctly associated and displayed.
same problem in text messaging also, but not with every contact?!
you see i don't want to manually edit all my contacts to make the phone know which number belongs to which contact ...
anyone know how to fix this?
any help would be greatly appreciated!

Is this the xt883 ROM on an xt862 for gsm functionality? If so, any reason in particular you chose this ROM? Do you know about flashing the xt883 radio.img to get gsm on the xt862? It works great and doesn't force me to use the Chinese ROM lol.
sure i know about flashing the radio.img only but i also want the other benefits of the xt883, like call firewall, call record, bluetooth transfer, hardware decoding and so on.
what's included in the radio.img? is the cell standby issue fixed when flashing the radio.img only?
thanks!
Sent from my XT883 using XDA App
Do you mean the battery life due to having the cell radio on standby? I've only used the phone on T-Mobile so I don't really have a comparison for that. I've noticed wifi reception is a little weak, so I'm wondering if that has to do with the radio.img. I read that the xt883 is only rated for 802.11 b/g, so that would explain it.
I mainly use stock xt862 ROM because I tried the xt883 ROM and didn't like having to do the work around for Gapps and all the Chinese bloatware included. I didn't know about any exclusive benefits, but I don't think I'd need them now that you mention them.
I really just wanted gsm functionality and the stock ROM with the radio tweak works just fine for that.

Also, if you're interested in seeing what it includes, you can look in the dev section where the thread is and just download the zip to look at the files.

yeah i did that now, thanks man!
well, since no one seems to have a solution for my contact problem i think im gonna get back to stock and see how its gonna go with that.

I've got the same problem.
To solve it I've added the country code to all the contacts.
That worked for me 100%

i also got the same problem , i had restored all contacts and sms via app.
i imported the contacts to sdcard, then via file manager opened the vcf file manually and my contacts were updated again.
then all contacts displayed correctly when calls came or anything.
Hi. My wife is a new HTC One owner....and is having a hard time.
She wants to use the native email app...as its good with using more then one gmail account...but it wont scale down to fit the screen. Is driving her batty. Is there a setting she is missing. I know the gmail app does that perfectly but isnt good with more then one account (or is it with the new update????)
Please someone....help
CSW
This frustrates me as well. While it does auto scale text emails it doesn't work on images. I've done quite a bit of searching and found no solutions for the stock mail app. And no, there are presently no settings you're missing. However the solution is coming; 4.2.2 has an option for this which will hopefully translate to sense 5
Best you can do for now is switch to a different app or rotate the phone.

My solution so far is a mixed bag.
Ive tried just putting my three gmail accounts in gmail and forgetting the native mail client. It solved the scale problem perfectly....but it doesnt have an All inbox..and switching from one e-mail to another was a pain in the ars.
I then went to aqua mail.....and so far thats the one im using.
Can you please (please) tell me more about how the e-mail will change in 4.2.2? That sounds interesting....have you heard when its coming (to the states and at&t)?
Thanks

Hmm good to know, thanks, maybe I'll try that client!
Here's some who find 4.2.2 has helped them with this issue:
http://forums.androidcentral.com/htc-one-x/178937-converted-ios-frustrated-email.html
Now that I think more about this it could be that 4.2 specifically improves this for Gmail, while the manufacturer apps may not (like HTCs)... But I still maintain hope that the added option in 4.2 will translate into the other one too. But to answer your question specifically the change is just a toggle switch.
It seems kind of stupid that this is even an issue considering how basic it is...All because android doesn't seem to play nice with HTML in email apparently

Edit: oh and about when we get the OTA, soon... ish... Hopefully... a lot of Europe got it last week so others shouldn't be terribly far behind. Keep an eye on the HTC One mega thread here on XDA, it'll likely show up in there first when it hits other regions.
