HTC ROM Contact Details Missing-Please help

i just installed Dutty'x WM6.1 WWE on my Tilt. works GREAT, and VERY user friendly! only have a couple of issues, the main one being that i have my contacts list and everyone is there, but when i click on a single contact to view the details, i see a blank page with only "New" and "Menu" on the screen over the soft keys. and when i am sending a text message and type a contact name into the recipient field, it should bring up a drop down list of the contacts who match the name, but it's like the font is in white. they are there, because i can select from them, and if i keep typing, the box gets smaller as the matching contacts are narrowed down. but i can't read the selections. like i said, it's as if the font is set to white. can anyone help me with these issues? i would greatly appreciate it. post a reply or send me an email to [email protected].
Thank you,
Chris

can you show us a screenshot of this?

trying to figure out how to upload image.

Hopefully this will work. i just uploaded them to my Facebook.
This is my contacts list:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And this is after i click on a contact to view their individual details:

i dont think that worked.

maybe this will work
this is my contacts list, which looks just fine:
http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=30597483&id=1028245282
but when i click on any particular contact to view their details, i just get this basically blank screen:
http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=30597494&id=1028245282

also, another thing i noticed last night is that my QuickGPS isn't working now. it says it cannot be opened. cert isn't signed...or one or more cmponents missing. i've heard this is a common problem with QuickGPS on HTC ROMs.

can't access the screenshots you sent...you should know that you can upload pictures and screenshots right here with in your posts on xda...
anyway, just clarify one thing...does the "white font" problem happen ONLY in landscape mode? landscape mode is usually enabled when you have the hardware keyboard slide out...
if the answer to the above question is YES, then just disable "cleartype in landscape" using "kaisertweak" or "advanced config".

yeah i saw the screenshots, and its not a white font bug you have, because both of yor soft buttons also disappeares... i'm reposting your images from FB here:
contacts in the list(1st pic) , pressed one contact (2nd pic)
do you have ANY application that customizes contacts in any way?

[q] incoming call facebook pictures

I'm using the stock facebook app. Is there a way to have the synchronized facebook pictures show when that person is calling you? Right now it only show their names. Only contacts where i manually added a picture show up when that person calls.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App

Click on your contacts and choose a contact. Hit the menu key at the bottom and select 'Mark as default'. At the top should be 'Caller ID', and the facebook picture for that contact you synced. hit the radio button next to the picture and save.
Voila!
Hope that helps.

Thanks! Wish it did that automatically though, instead of me setting defaults for each contact by hand.
By any chance is there a way for the Incoming Call Picture to be bigger? For some reason it shows up quite a bit smaller than it actually is.

Not that I'm aware of. That is probably done to ensure proper resolution of the photograph.

using the STOCK fb Go to accounts and settings> Facebook> Sync contacts.
Sometimes there are 2 entries here because of facebook app. stock is better for contact syncing.
In phone Contacts press
Menu> Get Friends> Facebook> Choose all the freinds you want to sync with phone.
In phone contacts make sure first and last name are the same and they should sync. (most did for me).
For the ones that dont, long press a contact and select "Join Contact" and select from list you chose earlier, or some suggestions, or if you forgot some click get freinds.
A contact can be joined with upto 4 syncing profiles, 1 of which will always be phone, some of my contacts are joined to "phone, google, Windows Live, and Facebook"
other setting to play with:
Menu> More> Display >
only contacts with phones
scroll down to Facebook and CHECK contacts

Am I the only one whos stock Facebook app's sync experiences frequent problems and "will be back shortly"?

Is there a way for the incoming/ outgoing call pictures to displayed bigger? I tried the full screen caller id app but it stretches the already small facebook synced pictures. Also the built in facebook sync(for the full screen app) is still broken.

i had that issue the other day.
note: i have the facebook app TOO but dont sync contacts with it.
i use the default sns syncing because it has the little "F" logo.
anyways i fixed the problem with the default syncing by removing the "Facebook APP" settings from "Accounts and Sync". even though they were NOT set ON. and the other started working again. Re-started facebook app, re-log in, no syncing... ok DONE. worked for me at least

There's also SyncMyPix.

Does anyone know of a way to have a bigger and more high quality image to be used for the caller id? Currently the "full screen caller id" app can't sync with facebook properly, you would have to do each contact manually.
Would be an awesome feature in a ROM, lol

Bug in Facebook app

When I receive an email from Facebook (for any notification such as Birthday reminds, Login alerts, etc.) on my phone (whether to Gmail, Yahoo, or Outlook), and open Facebook via any link provided in the email, I am shown the option of whether to "Open with" using "Facebook", "Chrome", or "Internet" (because I have never set a default). If I choose Facebook, it opens a Facebook app, but it is slightly different than if I open the Facebook app directly from App drawer. For example, there is no option to "Post to someone's timeline" in the version opened from the Email link.
In the following images, you can see for yourself that there is a difference between Email Link Facebook (left side) and Native Facebook (right side).
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Notice that they are clearly different. The Email Link Facebook doesn't even have a "Write Post" option.
Is this because it is sometimes launching the un-updated Facebook app that came preloaded on my phone? Can other Galaxy S6 users confirm this experience? How can I stop this from happening?

Try clearing data from the app and signing in again

I had already tried that. It didn't work. I can't uninstall completely, because FB came preloaded. But after removing updates and clearing all data, my phone requested to download FB after clicking on the FB icon in my app drawer. I allowed it. The outcome was the same as I've described above. I then downloaded the latest updates from the Play Store. The outcome was again the same as I described above.
Serio22, are you saying this does not occur on your Samsung Galaxy S6?

It looks the same as when I open it from the app drawer, don't use it much though, but links never open for me

What are you comparing opening FB from the app drawer to? I'm comparing opening it from a link.

Where did S Planner go?

I really liked being able to write directly onto my calendar, but what happened to it?

right next to S Health. loll
I like it because it changes with my theme. using Google Calendar is just as easy to use as S Planner is though. it's too bad there isn't a widget for it though. I still always end up using Jorte as usual.

I agree. Also Snote and splanner are not the same unfortunately as you were trying to reference

AT&T in the U.S. renamed it Calendar but it's still S Planner. If it's completely missing it might be a regional thing. Use an app like Shortcut Maker and see if you can find it in your phone's apps and activities. It may be there but hidden and you can use a shortcut to you make to launch it.

I see calendar and it's fine, just your typical Google cal. I've searched all my apps (I am on Verizon by the way) and there is no s planner. There is no button at the top or anywhere for screen write. I'd imagine I could get the .apk from an at&t device, no?

If you're talking about being able to add hand written comments on week view that's gone. A casualty of Samsung's de-bloating efforts. You can still ink but it's not as broad as it used to be. For example, if you press a date on the calendar with the S Pen this pop-up appears. You can handwrite your meeting in to it but it auto-coverts to text.

About the LED Icon Editor app for the LED case

Hello. I just got a Note 8 with the Samsung LED case. So far, I'm loving both and the case looks so beautiful. However, the icon creating app, 'LED Icon Editor', is not very good. It's quite difficult to draw the icons if you're not very good at drawing (I suck).
Here's the interface:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Has anybody find any app or online guide that can be useful to design different icons. For instance, I use WhatsApp a lot, and so far, every attempt to draw the WhatsApp icon has been a total failure so I'm just using a W, which also was not very easy to draw. So I used something like this as a guide but it won't work for icons just letters and common symbols
The guide I've been using:
Another issue I have is that if I reset or flash my phone, I will lose all my custom icons. Is there any way to backup the data for this app without root? (I'm thinking maybe backing up a particular folder).
Thanks.

I would also like to see what others have done. I have created a few custom icons for simple things like email and twitter. I tried doing one for snapchat and it never turned out good so I just gave up.

mub51 send me a couple of icons

These are the ones I have created.

I started to play with this, but it seems you can only set it for certain contacts. Is there another place you can set it per app? For example, 1 for any texts, 1 for emails, etc.

Yes this is possible. You can choose contacts , next to that you can choose apps. Look at my uploads and click on the word next to 'personen'

Apparently you can't set it to the text app though? I see multiple apps listed, but no texts apps are in that list. Same with the Phone app.

That is correct. However you could try selecting contacts. I do not now if this will work.
For messaging, you could try to download a third party messaging app and give permission to the app to receive all messages, then you could select that app and give it a different led icon.
This is all in theory I did not check it for you.
Let me know if it works

I tried selecting all the contacts, but it only lets you select up to 100 contacts per icon.
The 3rd party messaging apps do not show on the list either.
Alas, it seems that this may not be a possibility.
