Hi, I dont know if it's me but When I want to call someone with google now it just search what I said on the web it doesnt recognize what I want Exemple: When I say Call Daniel .......... it just show call daniel on google search and Show me link on google. But my friend it is caling when he say this. I'm on stock JB AT&T not rooted sim unlock . In Canada .
Can you help me?
Not sure if you figured this out yet, but open Google Now and select the three-dot menu from the lower right corner. Go to Settings then Phone Search. In there Make sure you have allowed GN to access your phone contacts. If that box is already checked and you still have no luck I'm afraid you may be SOL. Good luck, friend!

Hi from mexico, sorry for my english, the cuestion is
Somebody know how erase the register of calls under the favorites in the dialer? some like the logassist pro, please some helpme, some save my relasionship =P
This is such an annoying and useless feature.
The "frequently called" cant be erased manually. Not sure if theres any apps but very interested if there are. I absolutely hate how that page is filled with nonsense when it clearly says "favorites" yet decides on its own to add more than the ones I dub as favorites.
They're stored under application > manage applications > contact storage > clear data. Make sure you make a backup of all your contacts on Gmail as a precaution.
Thanks for the tip..but it still does not prevent this list form re-accumulating.
Id prefer a much more permanent solution.
Thnks
Thnks for the answer, but in mexico the 3g is very expensive, for the backup of my contacs ineed a wifi conection and no many places here have this conection, the problem here is erease just some frequent calls not alls, some body have a ansewr for this cuestion???
There is an app to save numbers to your sim. You could save the number to sim and delete from contacts, then refresh from sim, and bang, now you are sneaky again.
You should save your relationship by not calling people you shouldnt. Or lock your phone.

hah, yes. Prediction: It will end badly even if you manage to delete those numbers.
Yep, I ad this problem as well. I had numbers of certain people as my fav that I didnt want my gf to see. Nothing bad, just you know how women get.
Anyways the app I used is called "LogAssistPro "
It would allow you to choose and pick or all contacts to keep from showing up in the favorties.
Or you could use a 3rd party dialer app that doesnt use the fav tab? I now use SuperDial now so when you press my call button it brings that app and its easier to keep the history cleaner.

Kudos my friend. Log Assist Pro works like a charm.
For the goody two shoes who think this is all about hiding bad behavior....my G1 is a new number the previous owner must have signed up for EVERY service and owes money to every one so I get 4-5 calls a day from marketers and collectors. Grouping them all up under a
"teledouches" contact , directly to VM , and now Log assist has tremendously lessened my aggravation with that.
Gotta love Android.
Im having problems with Google Talk on my phone.
Normally, if u start a chat. and the other person is talking back, u should see the txt under your own txt. But i only see it as a balloon in my top-tray of the phone and do not see the txt written by the other person in the chat overview.
Anyone knows how to solve this?

My gf and I also have Galaxy S phones. Her device is running on I9000XXJFB firmware, mine is on I9000XWJM2. Shes having kinda like the same problem with GTalk: the screen is splitted to 2 sides (top&bottom), instead of how mine works (the good old conversation-look, when A-B-A-B persons messages follow each other).
Maybe its firmware-dependent? I did not find any option to change the layout in the settings menu.
Firmware is probably a good bet. If you want to hold off, have you tested to see what happens if you turn the setting balloon top-tray setting off? Would you see nothing at all? Or would it populate the message how it should.
You probably want the best of both worlds, it's worth a quick test if you have any reason to delay upgrading firmware.
disabling the notification button in the toptray would be a bummer anyway because then i wouldnt be notified if somebody is messaging me.
i downloaded a beta version of Hi GTalk from the market. which is working as it should work so i guess my problem isnt solved with Talk it self, but with installing an alternative app.
i think you'd still receive the sound notification. As long as you are going an alternative app route, i'd. consider uninstalling and reinstalling GTalk, it might just be corrupted.
good point. i will uninstall it and reinstall.
[edit] hehe i cant uninstall it. its "in the factoryrom" so i see. i dont see it at the installed programs list..?
gtalk still problem
Hi, I have the same problem with gtalk, also after upgrade to Froyo any ideas ?
solution
Solution:
Change time zone to the right location unbelievable, but it works !!! layout is dependent on internal time zone.
Good luck
I use pattern to unlock my Galaxy S, but my son played with my phone and accidentally input too many patterns and make my phone only can be unlocked by signing into google account.
I typed my correct gmail user name and password, but still can't sign in and unlock the phone. I am also using APN ON/OFF application, and the APN status is OFF. I am thinking maybe it makes my phone unable to connect to the Internet and sign in to gmail.
Is there anyone know how to solve this problem without resetting the phone into factory default? And if I need to factory reset my phone, how can I do it because the 3 button combination is not working with my Galaxy S?
I'll be grateful if there is someone who can help
Many people have had this issue to some extend, most of them simply reflash the phone since that fixes it.
I remember someone wrote that you somehow could bypass it, sadly cant seem to locate the post anymore.

found it.

Try to put your gmail login info from all different gmail account you have.
Also try this. Take out battery>wait for 3 hours > but the battery back > press power button for 20 seconds (This method was listed by one guy on other forum).
One guy also mentioned this method.
AGAIN ITS the lamest thing you could ever think of, anyway heres how it goes,
1) Log in to your google account on your pc, the same account you registered for your phone
2) After logging in look at the top right corner of your inbox/email page, it would say your google username. Like say if you name is John, and you have a google id thats registered to your galaxy s as ,[email protected] Now this google id on the top right corner of the page would be displayed [email protected]
3) Type in the google id, thats visible on the right hand top corner of your page ([email protected]) into your galaxy s handset locked page, and type in the password.
TADA AND YOUR ON TO THE NEW SCREEN TELLING YOU TO PUT IN ANOTHER PATTERN.
Thanks

If you cant login by computer then go here

this solution is with thanks to another person on another site...
You need a WiFi connection available for this to work!
1) Call your phone from a different phone.
2) Answer the call. While still connected...
3) Hit the BACK button on the phone (the arrow softkey)
4)This takes you to the home screen (it might take a few attempts, it depends on your timing. It took me 4 attempts)
5)Drag down your notifications bar and turn the WiFi on if it isn't already.
6)Close the notifications bar then hit the MENU softkey, select Settings then "Accounts and sync".
7)Click "Add Account" and select Google.
8)Sign up for a new google account as normal.
9)When the signup process is complete (and it must successfully create an account) you can hang up the call. (Do not sync the accounts)
10)Now when the phone asks you to unlock it using google credentials, use the ones from the account you just created. It will now ask you for a new security pattern, then for the same pattern again to verify.
11)Once you are back into the phone, turn off this "feature" until Google release a fix for the bug.
12)You can now delete the "false" google account which you just created from the phone. You should log into google and delete it from there too really.
13)Now reboot your phone. When the phone starts up and it still says "Phone Locked" don't panic!, Just drag the screen out of the way to unlock the phone, just like you did before you activated the pattern security.

No problem I´m glad it worked, now I can write it down for myself incase I run into this issue myself haha
Ok, this worked for my on both my MyTouch 4G and My T-mobile Samsung Galaxy tablet. First off go to http://www.amazon.com/mobile-apps/b?ie=UTF8&node=2350149011 with is the site where you download the app from. Click on your name and go to your account settings. Somewhere on there will have a list of devices that you've used to sign into that app store with. Even if it's the same device, it comes up again or if you change roms it comes up as something else, there is an option below each one to deactivate it. When you click deactivate device, it will disappear within about 15 seconds. Do so with each one. I had about 20. I deleted every single one of them. Then I sent the email to my phone and tablet to download the amazon app store again and I installed it on both devices, and they both work fine now. I know these directions were kinda vague, it's because when I went back to look where it was that you see all of your devices and I've already deleted it. So look around in account settings and on the page where you enter a phone number or E-Mail, it sends the link too download it. It worked great for me, If someone else can do this and explain it better than me, feel free, any other questions, I'll try and help the best I can, [email protected] .
So basically go to that site on the link that I provided at the beginning of the post. Find where all your devices are stored, it's on the right side, click the button that says deactivate device below it, and it about 15 seconds it will disappear. Now delete EVERY one of them. All of them. Then put in your phone number or Gmail address then re-download the app-store then you should be able to sign in fine, let me know how it works and if someone can explain this better than me please do,
again I hope this helps, It should work on all devices,
Knotrkr
I hope that helps you guys out,
Patrick.
This worked for me, and I just went into application settings, did a force stop, clear cache, and wipe data. Then re-started amazon app store, signed back in, and it is working fine again.
just open all your lines and it will work..

I can't thank you enough, I have been going out of my mind the past few days wondering what to do to sign into my amazon account
thanks again!
Thank You Patrick!!!!
OMG! This has been driving my crazy! I even sent an email to amazon- they couldn't help. A simple general google search brought up your thread Patrick and it was a great fix My work around was just reinstalling the old data from titanium backup. But on my new galaxy nexus I didn't have any backups for it. Your fix Worked like a charm! I am a happy camper thanks to you Patrick. :victory:
Did I say thank you???
Ok NB here---- I know its some threads out here that might help, but its not on this particular phone; which is a Samsung galaxy s6edge. I just want to know how to stop the prefix +1 to stop so I can make calls. Its some of my contacts not all. I cant even check my VM without it adding the prefix to it... The problem occurs only with outgoing calls. Im on the metro pcs network using a Verizon cell. I've been seeing the same complaint online, and other forums, and yet, I cant seem to find a resolution for this issue.. :crying::crying: I thought It had something to do with waze considering it seems to add extra links to my contacts without permission but I deleted the account and turned off the syncing, but its still happening. I also went into my google contacts and call myself going in manually and reentering the numbers but to know avail
Now this is insane considering I cant ck my vm without doing it lvisually (app). What a bummer...
I don't know about the tecky words so please be simple with the answer, please thanks ahead :victory:
I solved it YEAH YEAH!!!!
WELL WELL nb HERE: I found out how to solved the issue for the prefix +1, after looking at the phone I noticed at the top of the page, it said assisted call. Now I got to thinking I don't need help in assisting my calls so I went into settings scrolled down to subtitle (Device). Clicked on the Orange button that said Applications. Scrolled to the subtitle (application settings) clicked on the (green) sign that said Phone scrolled to subtitle (other call settings) then I tapped assisted dialing:good: an at the top of the screen it states off or on in the right corner make sure that is pushed left for it to be Off so if you have to dial internationally you can manually put the number in. >Problem solved<. That is if its for the Samsung s6edge---which seem to be the phone I ever had a problem with about this issue. Hope this helps Thanks:laugh:
