Hello!
Someone knows how can i set my actual gps position to any contact?
example:
im in your house, and i want to set de adress to your contact im my phone. but does not edit the contact position and write by hand, any applications that take the current position and set as your home address.
thanks
depends on what gps software you are using
if any of your contacts has an address on the contacts list you can open it on google maps and set the navigation path but then I'm not sure exactly what you mean or want to do.
i want to know if have a software that defines my current position as the address of a contact of mine. i want to put my current position to a contact of the list. for when I need, open the contact's address in Google Maps. could understand? Thank you for your attention

I previously had a Milestone and in the calendar app there any address I entered into the location field would be clickable and offer an option to open maps or navigate to it. In the samsung app I can add a location but it is not clickable. I have seen that you can open the map from the edit screen but this seems only to let you get a single map image rather than giving full functionality. Is there a setting somewhere I am missing?
Edit: I tried installing Jorte calendar and that has clickable address links working. When viewing the same event in both only Jorte allows me to click through.
Looking into this it seems the feature is simply missing from the samsung app rather than not activated and has been since the original galaxy. Is this something that can easily be modded?
I am needing this feature as well. When I had my captivate, stock did not have this but with the cognition rom it seemed to work. I don't know how it was modded to work. However, when I updated my captivate to the 2.2 stock firmware I897UCKB1, it had this feature. Now that I have a SGS2 its very disappointing that it doesn't have this again. I use the Clickable address location in calendar every day to get to appointments. It is so frustrating to have to open the appointment, edit the appointment, copy the address from location, hit home, open maps, hit search, paste the address, and hit search again while driving. This could all be done with one click if the location was clickable. I am willing to donate $15 to anyone able to give a solution using the SGS2 stock calendar app. Thanks.

The best i could think of is to do a search of the location before hand copy then copy the link to the description part on the calender entry. Also add the location snapshot (this is just a picture as you might have aready noticed). Now when the appointment pops up, just click the link(set it up to open with maps). This way you can getting the navigation running from the appointment itself.
add another one to the list of people who really need this feature.
i have just come from a year with a htc desire and its something i really miss.
This is a silly oversight. Something that other apps on the market implement without issue. I'm disappointed!
I built an application and I put the Google Maps in it (just the view).
I want to add a pin option in order to the user will be able to set his destination.
So I need that the user put a pin,confirm and then I need to get the coordinates and put tham into variables
how can I do it?
p.s
Does anyone know how to define an area (in radius)?
Hello!
I come with an ideea.
Maybe somebody could bring some modification to Android OS.
It will be very nice if a geographical address could be linked to a navigation application like google maps, as emai:[email protected] do, or tel: do.
In email it can be something like Avenue Street, Number 23
or a GPS position "AN 234 123". I hope you will understand me.
Certainly it can be resolved from OS.
On a computer this can be done with jquery.
Now, you can find a lot of ways to share an address from google map, or a link, to an email address. How can be done reverse?
It will help a lot when you will be in your car, driving to a location and wanted very fast to have the address in google map with just a click on address link from the email you just received.
Thank you!
Anyone know how to control when syncing contact in our phone with google account? I mean can choose which data in google or in our phone is priority.
Ex: If I edit contact in both my phone and google (use computer) but only one is edited correct so how can choose which data will be replace by the other?
Add a letter to the name of an individual edit and give it a little time if you see a same name with an extra letter in your emai or on the phone then try it the other way around. (Ex. make a copy of one contact with a phone number in your email and add a number or a few letters off from the original name then wait and see what updates! Then do the same thing from your phone make a copy contact with a slightly different name and see if it is in your gmail! I don't believe you can modify WHAT gets synced persay but you can completely turn sync off until you are ready to back your items up which in turn also saves on battery life as well.
In EMUI 9, stock Calendar app added "Map" button when creating a new appointment, to find the location.
However in order to work properly you need to press that button and find the location by scrolling and moving the map to the correct place. There is no search option to search for the location you want.
In addition, if you simply type the location you want and save the appointment, the "Show on Map" button in the event opens another app (amap) which does not work in Europe, so you cannot navigate there.
Does anyone have the same issue? Any solution to this, apart from using another app?
I have tested right now:
- I can create a new task without entering the location
- if I write the place name manually, I can't open it in the map, nothing is happening after pressing the location button
- if I select the place on the map, I can open it later in Firefox and Google Maps
IMO, stock Calendar app works good.
A pain in the ass work around is manually typing address in, then when you want to view it on map, click and long hold the address and it will open Google maps and search the address.
It sucks that it won't do it by default, but the weather information on the calendar/schedule needs the location set properly to pull weather data
But the Europe address seems to work for me

Thank you very much for your reply. Indeed your suggestion works, with one small tradeoff, the address should be put in English. If I put the address in Greek (my native language) it will not work. But for sure is better than nothing. Thank you very much

Correct, this is how it works, I would prefer though to have a search option on the map, instead of selecting it. But we will have to wait for Huawei to improve stock Calendar app for it. Thank you
