[Q] Get rid of persons cb# in TXTs - HTC Rezound

I am trying to figure out how to get rid of the persons callback number in text messages(after the name, its displays (M ##########): before the msg)...
Strangely, I've noticed for some people it shows just their name without the cb# in each response(the way I want it!) though for others it shows the call back number in each txt they send....any idears?

This is what I want every txt identity to look like...for some reason this person is the only one that doesn't display the cb#
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

I think this setting is on their end.

I thought it displayed the number when you had multiple contact numbers/options for the person. Can you confirm or disprove this on your phone?

This appears to be correct. I don't have email addys for most of my contacts and one that I did showed her number. I added an email addy to one that did not show number and now it does show her number. Also showing my bro's number and I have two numbers for him but no email addy.

I believe you are correct. At least that's the way it is for me as well.

Seems like thats it! Ones with no cb# doesnt have emails nor linked to facebook...
However, when I tried deleting the ones with emails/cb#'s, it wont let me...and they are the ones linked to facebook. I tried deleting them manually though wouldnt let me...hmphh might hafta do without fb links.

Started using Handcent for that very reason.

[Q] Unknown empty SMS messages

I use Go SMS on CM 7.0.3 ROM. I frequently (2-3 times a day) get a weird text alert as you can see below.
{
"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"
}
As you can see, it says 7pm (and always does regardless of actual time), has no sender, has no content, and does not show up when I actually launch either Go SMS or the regular messages app. It is like a ghost alert with no real message attached. Has anyone else experienced this? What causes it? How do I stop it?
Yes I do.
Yes I do also get this. I have a DroidX with gingerbread. I get it probably more than 3 times a day. I only get it with an actual text message. i have not been able to figure out what is causing it. Please figure out!!!
+ 1, would be great if someone could figure this out, quite annoying
It usually happens when you get a picture message.

I get it everytime i get a normal text.
Anyone figure this out? I just switched from Handcent to Go SMS a few days ago and am now getting these "ghost" messages.
My *guess* is that this may be caused by a combination of Go SMS and some other app. I've recently reset my phone and removed a lot of apps and widgets (like Fancy Widgets and Beautiful Widgets) and haven't had the problem since. Makes me think it may be a widget update of weather or something that is causing this.

I agreed - something to do with MMS notifications and multiple notifications accumulating.
Ive been having it for a little while now, maybe the last month and a bit.

[Q] Social Hub Email Problem

Hello,
I`m new, so be gentle. I have a little problem with my SGS2 Social Hub Email. It works just fine with the "push email"/premium thing, but i cannot acces my email folders like "Sent"/"Work". For example, i click on the "inbox" tab and go to "Sent" folder. On the bottom of the screen i get "Refreshing" message and after few seconds it dissapears leaveing a black screen (no messages). I have a Google and a Yahoo account. This thing happens with both.
So what is the problem?! Help!
Well if you haven't sent any message/email it would remain blank, I mean it won't get synchronized with server, I am having the same issue, don't know if this is normal or not.
Regards.
I don`t think it`s normal. If so, then what`s the point showing the folders, but not the emails. Let`s say I send a message from my computer and later I wish to resend it, this time from my phone. Where am I suppose to find the message ?!
Surprinzingly, after trying and trying, one of the folders got synced. Do not know how, do not know why it`s the only one that synced. It`s not like it has something different than the other folders.
There must be something we`re missing...
Well I found it, its not there in Sent folder but in Gmail/Sent folder, thats because I am using Gmail, you could have different with other email client. Now one thing I noticed, the above is applicable when you select Non Premium/POP/IMAP account, but if you select it then there will be three things missing,
1- No Sent folder. I mean the above.
2- No option of 'Load more messages'. Thats damn boring, how to get rid of that?
3- There is No Outgoing server settings.
But the good point is the Sent Emails will be shown in default Sent folder.
But as there are more negatives than positives, I am good with Standard mode rather than Premium.

[Q] Google Contacts Relationship Field?

Could someone answer this as I'm a little confused. Below is a screenshot of my Dad's details - blurred out of course
Anyway, at the bottom you see a "Add relationship" field. If you click Add relationship, you are presented with a list of relationships. In here I selected Father. There is then an input box next to it.
What are you supposed to put in there? I've already told Google this contact is my Father, even if I put his real name in as the contact details, it still gives me that option.
At first I thought perhaps it was for Google Now. For instance, my girlfriend is down as her full name, so when I say "Call my Girlfriend" it would call her. However it seems like that isn't the case.
Can anyone explain this one to me. It doesn't seem to make any sense or have any use.

You can add information about the relationship in this field. I agree that you don't need it for father, but what about brother? You could add older or younger. Or, what about assistant? You could have a number of them, so you can specify what they assist with.

Still, seems a bit pointless.
It's funny as I also asked the same question on Google+ and was told that this field w to add relationships for that person. So the contacts father, mother, brother etc
I think it has more implementation coming in the future. In your case, using your dad as the example, you would choose the "Child" relationship and type your name in the text field.
The idea is that once you have populated the fields, your contacts will be linked by relationship and you will have quick access to everyone "related" to a particular contact.
Here is a post explaining how it was intended to be used: http://www.quora.com/How-do-you-use-the-relationship-field-in-google-contacts
Hopefully that helps, but who knows when it will actually be fully functional...
I personally really like this feature. My parents are both on Facebook and I need to keep their name correct on their contact card for proper syncing. However for some reason, one relationship is incorrect. Brother. Is anybody figured out how to make a correction?

[Q] Contact picture problem

Hi!
I'm using CM11 on my LG G2 and I have some problem with contact pictures. I've synced my phone contacts with my facebook contacts through Sync.me app and it did its job quite good, when i go to the people app and open the favorites tab all the pics are hq and looks really good. When I tap on persons pic and go to their profile it also looks good. But when I'm in list view almost every picture looks terrible, it's unsharp and kinda pixelated, the same goes with sms app.
Is there a way to fix it?
Anyone?

Thanks but I don't think it's sync.me app fault cause the same happens when I set contact picture from my phone storage.
This is what I mean
This is screenshot from stock contact app, the same is happening with sms app. Contact pic looks really bad and some of the pics are cut.

but at the same time in the favorite contacts tab in yahoo aviate the pic looks good
The reason I suggested that app is because I had found another forum thread with your same issue and that was the solution. Do with that information as you will.

Thanks for help, but it didn't work I't kinda annoying.
I think it might be apps fault (stock contacts and sms), cause in textra sms all the pics looks good.
I still couldn't fix this, can anyone help with this?
It's annoying, does anyone have the same problem? I tried different programs to sync contacts I even uploaded them manually and still nothing. Is it how it is on CM11 or there's something wrong with my phone?

Call Blockers

What are you all using for Call Blocker?
I was using RCB (Root Call Blocker) but found out that was locking up and causing the random reboots. I would be trying to text and RCB would pop up needing root access again and again and then reboot the phone.
Also after it would have an update it would turn off the cell service until you went through the setup process all again.
Got tired of that

Mr. Number has been working excellent for me! It alerts me if the number comes from a number that has been marked as spam, and you can mark numbers as spam.
I can, with one click, block a number.
Its excellent!

That sounds good. Can you block a whole area code or like the area code and then first three of a number with strings?
Example... 999* or 999-456*
UPDATE.
I just installed Mr. Number and it looks like you can block just area codes and such just use the block number that starts with.
Thanks for the share...
