Im having an issue deleting contacts from my phone. When i click on there profile it does not give me an edit button to delete. Do i have to delete them from gmail and fb also? I unlinked them from fb and deleted from google contacts and its still thete and not giving me an option to delete.
While viewing the contact, hit the menu soft key. It will bring up a few options, delete being one of them.

That's odd. I know I'm on a different device, but through my roms it's always been there.
Sorry I couldn't help, try the rom thread.

How do I stop this from happening. Every time I reply from my gmail app who ever I reply to automatically gets saved as a contact.
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
Google does it. They have always done this with g mail. And your phone syncs contacts with google. I wish I knew how to make it stop. I'll dig.
Edit: dug. At google.com go to gmail and sign in. press cog next to your name and scroll down to "create contacts for auto-complete" and select I'll add contacts myself and scroll to bottom and save changes.
Thanks that worked.

I recently reflashed CM7 and I remember being able to long press the back button to force close an app. I can't find this in settings, could someone tell me where it is. Also, I now have a clear button on the bottom of my notifications. How would I remove this

Menu -> Settings -> Applications -> Development and check Stop App Via Long-Press.

Ummm, the "Clear" button? As in translucent? I didn't know the X2 had a clear button.
I have power, volume up and down, menu, home, back, and search.

Seems like a silly place to bury that setting. Thanks for the tip, though.
There is a button that says clear in the pull down status bar when there are notifications

Ah! Got it! Yes, that is to clear all temporary notifications. Like email and text message notifications (there are many, many more that flash a notification to the status bar).
Ciao!
Yes, but it's annoying. How would you go about removing it.
One other question. The 3g tethering in CM7, is that through the carrier. Will Verizon change me for using this, our do I need to use a separate app to get around fees.
Sent from my MB870 using xda premium
No, it's not through Verizon. If it were, it would take you to there sign up page when you use it. I doesn't. Will they catch you if you use it? Who knows. I don't imagine you'll draw any more attention if you use it than you would with any other tether app. My guess is, if you don't go crazy with it you'll be just fine. Could be wrong though. Personally, I don't worry about it. But then, I only use it when it's absolutely necessary.

How could we go about removing the clear button? One way is to open your notifications...ie: text, email, etc... The other way to remove it completely would be to disconnect from mobile data/wifi/internet... An easier way could be to smash your phone, but I don't suggest that...lol
What is annoying, the notifications or the buttons???

Brand new phone, maybe I made a mistake on setup but doubt it. Why is gmail not my default email upon clicking 'email dev' in the play store, instead it goes to my yahoo pop accounts?
Thanks.

Open your regular mail app(NOT the gmail app, but make sure you are on your gmail account obviously), then click on the "menu" button, then click "settings", then click "general settings", and then you'll see a check box that says "make default account"
No luck. Clearing defaults button appeared to initially work until I tested it, no prompt for action, went straight to yahoo. Second option didn't work either, general settings for mail shows a greyed out checkmark for default app and does not allow me to uncheck it, no option for default in gmail.

Mine is set to "compose mail" under app associations. I dont use the gmail app so I didnt check the compose gmail option. The way I suggested earlier should have worked for you. Thats really weird. Did you do the same steps I listed for your other email accounts to make sure that one of them wasnt checked off as the default account?
Either way, as long as your problem is resolved its all good. Im just curious as to why the other way wouldnt work.

you dont need to delete anything install app and then change phone and contact shortcuts icons in your home screen by the ones of the app
howver you can use system contacts if you want and after install the app if you go to a contact and press to make a call it will ask you wich dialer you want to use by definition you mark the box and choose app dialer and thats it...
i try it, before post sorry for my english but dont delete those apps from system the solution is right there.
just press thanks if i help you
Hi...
I am currently using Neko95 GingerSnap, and, since i tried MIUI, i loved the UI, i use ExDialer.
When i missed a call, the notification only disappear (automatic) if i open the stock app.
I Linked exdialer to ex partition of sd, rebooted and converted to sys app (Link2SD).
You still have the stock apps, but they are small...
The next thing that i will try, after consult the community if it works, is to, before flash, exchange the stock apps for the ones that i will use... (if someone that reads this can tell, please...)
With best regards, Shaib Lftg
Are you talking about extracting the rom than replace the phone and contacts apk with the dialer and contacts you plan on using ie...rocket dial and renaming it to phone.apk and vice versa

ok i have done a TON of research but have yet to get the issue resolved. as we all know it has been well documented that the dna has issues with getting mms to work with an att sim card. hoiwever, i did speak with att and they said that my sim card COULD be the issue. something about it being a 3g card and the stream of #'s is not compatible?
think thats possible?
anyone else have any luck with changing the sim card out?
ill go out on a limb and ask if anyone has the correct apn or mms settings. i can get internet but the dreaded mms is a no go. i did manage to get ONE mms to come thrrough on my phone but i have a feeling it was a fluke. also that was multiple days and tries ago.
id hate to part with such an awesome device but i do need mms...
any help would be awesome!
Have you tried another texting app? Go sms seemed to send and recieve mms for me.

i did download the gosms app. however, i couldnt find where to put the mms settings in. is there a how to for that? im willing to give it another go.
Here is how you get to the mms settings in go sms. Just get to the menu in the app and follow the pictures I have attached. Then fill in the correct apn settings and make sure they save and it should work. (I don't know the apn settings for AT&T but I'm sure if you Google it or search xda you can find it) I would reboot after you change them and then test it and see if it works. Hopefully it does.
Good luck
If I have helped you please press the thanks button.

Look for an onscreen menu button or if you have your soft keys set up to bring up a menu use that but there should be some settings or on screen menu somewhere.

Well that's up to you. I would just flashed viper dna since the recent apps button also acts like a menu for short press and then acts as a recent apps button when you long press it. But that's up to you. Let me know if you get it to work.
