Contacts/postal address fields - Xiaomi Mi Max 2 Questions & Answers

My new Xiaomi Max 2 has two deficiencies.
One is that the App are in a random order: this is solved by using a launcher (extraordinary that sorting Apps is not apparently part of Miui).
The second is more strange; there are no fields within the postal address. I have found no way to get these fields - standard in all Android phones I have owned up to my current Sony - to appear:
Street
PO Box
Neighbourhood
City
State
Postcode
Country
Can anyone can provide a way to get these fields to appear in the Contents App in Mi Max 2? Without them I will consign my Mi Max 2 to oblivion!
Thank you.

Your habit is one of the deficiencies. Is it really so hard/lazy in address field to write simply
(John Johnson)
3, Deficiencies Street
(no PO BOX)
(What is Neighborhood? Moon?)
Las Vegas, Texas
(State: cold)
1122334455
Lazyland
So, consign your laziness to oblivion.

U CAN Animate Large weather radars and Sat's

Everyone At XDA has given me so much I feel like I need to Give a little back.
I learned this when I had my treo 650, If you hate the tiny radars and satelite pictures you get on your phone, or don't want to load the whole weather page from your local news site, here is my fix for that.
1) on your computer find the local radar or Satelite that you want on your phone. (if you want animated view, animate 1st.)
2)Move cursor over map and right click mouse. Select properties.
3)High lite the Address (URL) right click mouse copy and paste in an E-mail and send it to your phone.
4) once on your phone you can open the e-mail and just select the URL address and your browser will load it. Save it to favorite's and you got it.
You only have to do this one time is seems that updates and changes are automaticaly saved to the same URL address.
5)the following web sites I know work where I am. P=Pic/A=Animate
Wungerground.com (P&A)
Accuweather.com (P&A)
bigblue marble.com (P&A)
Intellicast.com (P)
(intellicast and big blue marble sat's photos are huge(date size) but pretty and detailed)
Noaa Radars USA (Use Standard Version link below NOAA Emblem) (P&A)
National Hurricane Center Sat's (P)only
Localwireless.com USA (P&A)
I used them during the 2005 hurricane season and was well informed
Try your locals and nationals good luck' Jami J
Java loads and Flash will not work on my phones (TREO 650) Or (TILT)
dose anyone know how to make them work?
Nice tip, thanks. I check Weather Underground every day on my PC but hadn't thought to try it yet on my Tilt.

Is your password in TOP 10?

I stumbled upon some information on which passwords people tend to use the most:
From the phished MySpace account logins:

12 - iloveyou
12 - password
11 - abc123
11 - ****you
11 - miss4you
9 - password19

7 - gospel
7 - terrete

From the PC Magazine:

It seems that even in passwords there are fashion trends after all
This statistics is only for US users - non-english speaking people have slight advantage of having more or less obscure languages and passwords.
And what about you - do you go for passwords that are easy to remeber or safe ones?
Nope, mine is random numbers and letters + capital letters No one will figure mine out
No, Mine must be a lot harder than that as I ALWAYS forget it !!!
Thanks for the tip, I will try one in the future.
I use Keepass (and Keepass for PPC) to store my passwoords. It can also generate new ones (safe passwords). Problem is that a Master password is still something you have to remeber yourself
mine isn't there either. GBA games ftw! (woops)
Windows, Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail, etc all accept passwords up to 256 characters. My passwords are all sentences with punctuation. Easy to remember, "I love Pam Andersons huge knockers!" plus it is fun to type.
or
"I love tinky winky"

Crazy haha
For really obscure pass-phrases, try something you remember from childhood. As an example, I can remember one time when my mum packed me and my sister off into a room with the windows open whilst she called the gas board.
After what seamed like several hours of boredom but was likely much less 'cos the gas board take that kind of thing fairly seriously, a porty chap came round and took a sniff.
"That's not gas darlin', somfins gawn an died under your floor"
I'll never forget it, but I've told the story enough that I'll never use it except as an example. The point is, spell it like you remember it being said to add that extra twist. Try using foreign words spelt phonetically, miss-quote movies, anything that no-one could reasonably guess.
Interesting...
I can't speak any foreign language, expect a little spanish, but I can say that my password is def. not in English
'boobies' is right up there!! Go hooters!
My passwords always look something like...
srgoi#%)ecrfomerg#463'08fg3;G%V#GM)IQETI
Not joking.
My password on many places is a phone number of an advertisment I saw on the TV back in 1997 + some letters....
apparently I saw that ad so many times that I will never forget that number

CommMgrPro. Looking for GSM-GPS mappers

HI.
CommMgrPro is and one year old Hermes project. CommMgrPro is:
1) Automatic profile tool based on Location (GSM cell) and schedules.
2) Battery and Current draw monitory tool.
3) Communication manager.
4) -> It allow to upload cell changes to the server and if you have GPS It can take the coordenates so you can track your movements on the server using Google Maps. Apart of this we are creating automatically a big database matching CELL - OPERATOR - GPS coords.
So.....We are giving for free licenses to people interested on the project and interested on increasing the database. Simply install the program, use it to upload cells and if you ve uploaded cells you will get a free license. More info in www.commmgrpro.com
Thanks
It is interesting. However, I am concern about the privacy. Does the program upload ANYTHING else other than the Cells information?
How do you protect the information which user sends to your server? Can we delete the data completely off from your server?
EDIT:
I just checked your website and seems you allow user to login and check the cell info. However, the login and registration pages are not using SSL.
yes, thats truth.
User can choose which fields to be uploaded to the server (8 possible fields). But you can change the URL to test by yourself the data. At least users should upload Location (Cell/Lac), Phone operator, GPS coords and (owner_name and/or Device ID to identify the user who uploaded the data. Well, you can disable owner name and Device ID (imei) but we wont know who is upload that data). There are two main tables.
1) Cell-operator-gps. Thats the interesting table for CMP. No user data.
2) Location changes. Interesting for user to track movements on google maps. Data's rows are deleted each 72 hours but can be removed more frequently if users wants.
NO Https. Yes, we thought data was critial but We will put an special HTTPS port...

very interesting application Daniel!!
btw i have a question for you: is it possible to upload before a list of cells with also other informations included (like address, owner, power, or other) to display on screen once the bts is locked?
thanks
ciao
fausto
Well, currently It lets you upload 8 fields but I can more info if needed. This project is alive and I post new releases every two or three weeks.....

licenses
Are licenses still be given out for free? I already have a paid licence for bandswitch.
How does this compete with Navizon?
competition
Here's the differences. navizon uses a trial period program that supposedly gives you cash back for usage but the kicker is when the trial expires. CommMgrPro usage gets you a free license to the program itself since the database needs to be updated which is similar to navizon. What you're getting out of it is the difference.

Excel function

Alright...so i have a question
i know it says that i am "breaking the rules" by asking a question here...but it's not an excel mobile question...it's a question about an actual microsoft windows/office question
and since this is the only off-topic non-mobile forum i can find...this is the only place where i see it fits...if i'm wrong, feel free to move the forum
anywho!
i decided to ask here since xda members are relatively well-equipped to answer tech questions and i really don't feel/like the thought of registering at an excel help forum just for one question..so here goes!
I have two worksheets in an excel file
they both contain the same type of data
they're athletes (hockey players) with all their stats...organized in columns
both sheets have
NAME GP Goals Assists Points
one sheet is this past year...another sheet is the year before that
what i'd liek to do is link the rows that have the same player name
so that I can see Player A's points from last year compared to the year before that and see his progress
is this possible and can anyone help?
how's that for completely off topic
hehe
thanks!
Take year before last worksheet and sort it by name. Save workbook.
On last year's sheet, in the column where you want prior year's points to show up use the function VLOOKUP and refer it to the other sheet data range. Copy the formula down your column for the other players.
Read a little bit on it.
Some tips on VLOOKUP....
1. If you are going to pull several pieces of data from another table use appropriate absolute value for your Lookup_Value. If pulling data fields across and you want to copy the formula down to pull back several players, only make sure the column address is absolute. The row address should not be absolute. F4 toggles the available absolute addresses when in the Lookup_value field. Or just type in $ before what you want absolute.
2. For Range_lookup use False. It will force an exact match to the player's name as opposed to the closest name.
thanks! exactly what i was looking for...

The IP address 218.213.248.155 is assigned to HK Net in Hong Kong. They may assign it to any customer or the number you are seeing may be spoofed to make you think it is HK Net or one of their customers.
The Port number is not an officially assigned one. Here is a listing, taken from the file /etc/services, used by the TCP/IP network protocol. It lists the port numbers and protocols that run on them. These are the ones that are near that number. There are many others.:
name port/network packet type [#]name of protocol
"sd 9876/tcp #Session Director
sd 9876/udp #Session Director
amanda 10080/tcp #Dump server control
amanda 10080/udp #Dump server control
amandaidx 10082/tcp #Amanda indexing
amidxtape 10083/tcp #Amanda tape indexing
isode-dua 17007/tcp

It is saying that the block of addresses that starts at 218.213.0.0 and runs for the next 255.255 addresses is assigned to HK Net. These are 8-bit addresses, 255 being the largest value each value between a pair of '.'s can be. This represents 255x255 possible addresses although in practice a zero represents a network rather than an address and 253-4-5 are assigned to routers, etc.
If you are worried about it you could send an e-mail to [email protected] and tell them you are concerned.
