smart dialing - Touch 3G General

Hi!
I just got my jade....and I love it...but on my hermes WM had the option smart dialing. It was searching in the first AND the last name when I was dialing. Somebody recogniced this?
thanks a lot in advance,
Stefan

For me it is working. When typing someones name in the phone pad, contacts with matching first and last names are highlighted....

really
if have a "Juck Norris" in your adress bock, and you press 5(JKL) + 8(TUV) +6 (MNO) + 6(MNO) it should find it.
I only can search after first OR last names...
Cheers,
Stefan

True, it will find all the matching characters in 'last name' and 'first name'. It will also find them in 'outlook contacts' as well as SIM contacts and display them both.

I don't understand this at all. I tried all was I thinking about, but no chance, that the phone is searching for last and first names at the same time....
nobody else this issuie?
Cheers,
Stefan

Writing SMS with standard mode with one hand?

Very often I have to write an SMS with one hand, but it is impossible with Qtek 2020.
I would like to find a software where you can write an SMS with the standard mode (like on normal GSM) with standard numbers 1-9 with letters on them.
I use D9 to find the contact and I think it is very usefull.
When you find a contact and you tap the SMS button near the number it should be very appriciated to have a standard GSM input letter mode (like T9) instead of default SMS client of WM.
Do someone know if a software like this exists?
Thanks for the answer,
Urosh
GO to www.yorch.net and look under "software".
I' don't find any software I described before.
Please let me know which one do you think do what I said.
Thanks,
Urosh
I apologise, I thought it was on yorches site, here is the link for you, it is a superb piece of software and it is FREE. Anybody else wants a brilliant sms program make sure you get it too.

I just found a bug in this program when running on xda2, if you push "select" button when entering phone number it gives an error, but ig you spend a little time inserting all your often used numbers you can use the drop down becuase it remebers the last 20 numbers that you have used, its worth a little time to set it up becuase it saves a lot of time in the long run.
Actually it's not working at all with my mda ii It says: message sent successfully, but later on-message not delivered Do you have any idea what I could be doing wrong? Is there a special format in which I have to put the number of receipient?
i think, only way is spb fullscreen keyboard or typeango ..
It's working fine on my XDA-II with T-Mobile ROM 1.60. The only thing is that if I am trying to send to local mobile number I have to enter the number with '+', country code etc. while I could use 'short' number with ordinary mobile phone.

Ok, that seemed to do the trick. Tnx a lot, it's working now flawlessly. But, I still have another question -how do you input "+" directly from the SMSwriter. "+" is on the same key as the "0" and whatever I do I keep getting "0". Of coarse, I could call up the keyboard but for that would again need a stlyus
Its a serious shortcoming, its a pity somebody couldnt patch on the ability to select searchwhich would bring up the contacts list, any offers from you programmers please???
unfortunately, found no way around it, I used to enter '+' with soft keyboard using a pen. The only temporary solution which comes to my mind is the list of numbers used to send SMS already (there should be some 25 numbers kept).

For me is impossible to use this software only with my fingers.
It has too small dialogue boxes (to find the contact).
For me the best solution would be to have a D9 program that integrates a SMS client which has the same keypad which is at the start of the program (with big buttons) to write to message (when the contact has just been selected).

SmartDialing search by FirstName/LastName

When i try to call somebody through SmartDialing it searches by LastName/FirstName is there a way or some registry hack where i can do it by FirstName/LastName......
isn't anybody facing any problem in this regard???
are u serious????
nobody is experiencing it????
is it only me???
.... is there a solution yet???
same problem
I have the same problem.
In Portugal, we call people by first name/last name.
Anybody knows how to fix it?
Regards
Marcus
I don't know what smart dialing you ppl are talking about but on my exec if i seach by name in contacts it gives both results - by first as well as last name.
If I use the keypad to key numbers in the dial mode then it searchs by number, firstname and lastname. So whats the issue about? Also the list of people is displayed wherein the matches for the firstname are displayed first and then the lastname. Yes the names are displayed in lastname-firstname format but that doesn't really make a difference does it? (the names are highlighted to the last character keyed in)
The only way to change the order from Last, First to First Last is via desktop Outlook. Go into Tools > Options > Contact Options and change the "Default Full Name order" and "Default File As order" options to what you wish.
However, the only way to change the existing contacts is to go into each within desktop Outlook and change the File As option.
Cheers
Ant
but isn't there a way or a registry hack to change the display to FirstName/LastName in smart dialing?

Search by phone number (not by name) in contacts

Hi
I tried to search in magician forum about this, but it seems not find any similar to this
Have you ever have a feeling to find name by phone number? as for instance I got miss call from 123 111 number but does not show any name in my missed call list
so I open up contacts, but unfortunately, it only allows me to search by name not by phone number...
any idea how to do this?
THanks so much

Use the "Find" from Programs, type phone number, select "Contact" and voila!
Ow... I didn't realize that this possible as last time I tried them but resulting nothing (probably the number is not exist there and I assumed this function is not working)
Sorry questioning this question as I should read my manual more
you have to put number exactly as it writen in contacts... +38039....
and name will appears
Yea, I just notice that you need to enter exact number (with / without space) otherwise will not show anything... totally a bad search function...!!!
you can use Smart Dial: push green key then, just digit 5-6 cifres of the number and the pda will search all the contacts that contains the 5-6 cifres sequence.

Try the Standard Search option and you can find the contacts by numbers. Cheers
Hm... found anomaly here:
For some reason I tried the Smart Dial skizz0 mentioned, but for some reason it does not show the contact details when I type them, but when dial them it shows correctly
Eg:
what shown in contact:
Home
(61) 3 1234-5678
so I try smart type in smart dial:
12345678
during smart dial typing, no result shown
BUT
when I dial them, after a while it shows "HOME"
Weird isn't it...
for my opinion this "hyphen" method in contact get upside and downside:
upside ==> we can read it easily
downside ==> for some reason the program confused to recognise them...

Caller name instead caller number in SMS

Hi folks,
TIM Brasil send me ans SMS with all calls I've lost. useful when I flying, at arrival I saw who call me.
The problem is the SMS contain the caller number, time and date, so I need to search at Contacts to discover the caller name.
Someone know a piece of software able to look at phone number inside of SMS and scan the Contact to match it, showing the name of the contact?
Best regards
Any ideas?
Here in Italy vodafone sends a similar SMS but sets the sender name to the one who attemped to phone you
In this way the phone shows automatically the name (if it has been stored in contacts)
To quickly discover who's the owner you can do two things:
1) if the message contains "This number +xxyyyyyy tried to call you..." press the down key (the number should be selected by a square box) click and your phone should start dialling that number (doing a lookup in contacts and showing the name)
2) you can remember the first numbers (excluding the international prefix) press "red phone", "green phone" (to quickly start the phone application) and use the hermes' smartdialer to quick find who's the owner.
Try using SPB Diary...
Make sure your numbers are in the international format.

In fact this work, but is not exactly what I want, because after a airplane trip the SMS has 3 or 4 numbers. So I need to call/abort 3 for times... It's not elegant way.
thanks.

WM developer
Hi Guys,
I'm trying again... Is there a WM developer here who could develop a little plug in to do it?
I think is not complicated, but I don't know WM development to do it.
Of course this could sold to the community.
i had once a siemens sl45 and when i had a phone number in a sms it replaced it by the name in the phonebook... i so miss that feature..... i haven't seen it on other phones since then...
I'm not alone
Finally someone understood what I'm saying.
It's very useful this feature. I'm wondering if someone could develop this.
Anybody as a volunteer?
Maybe this is what you need?

Its work - It's great
Thanks Moe,
It's exactly what I was looking for.
Thank you.

[Q] Incoming Call on WM7

Can someone clarify if WM7 will show both the full name and company for incoming calls.
I save all my contacts in outlook and use the File As to show both Person & Company i.e. John Smith(ABC Ltd).
I have over 1500 contacts for work and it's one of the features that has kept me with Windows for years.
I've tried Android and that doesn't do it. Iphone doesn't do it. Nokia doesn't do it - Not sure about Blackberry.
Also does WM7 have smart dial - I'm sure I read that it didn't, again it's a feature that's kept me with Windows, I have a shocking memory and being able to dial by first name, last name, company or telephone number is invaluble.
Cheers
Pete
For me it shows only 1st and last name + picture if available. Company info is a no go as long as you don't incorporate it in the contact name itself as I usually do.
Smartdial: No. But searching the contact list is easy. Just type 2-3 letters and you have narrowed the results enough. I'm saying this with 700+ contacts.
...I very much like to use voice dial, too. Very reliable, in fact, and fast.

Dear All,
I'm experiencing very strange issue with my WP7 HTC HD2, when receiving call form my saved contacts.
Almost all my contacts are saved in my phone with international dialing code as I'm living abroad.
When I receive call abroad, the name of my contact is displayed.
When I receive call at home the name is not displayed, only the number is displayed and I dont know who is calling while the number is saved in my phone with international dialing code.
To have the name displayed I have to save the number again without international dialing code.
I have the same issue when I dialing also.
Please help.

Apply the following registry and it will solve your problem:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Phone]
"CallIDMatch"=dword:7
