Phone Number Fix / App - HTC Rezound

Does anyone know of an app or a fix to remove the +1 from your contact phone numbers. I sort of remember something that fixed this with my Incredible, but my searches have found nothing.
How or why does the +1 get added and what's the fix?
thx...

dunno of an app, but you can edit your contacts from your computer. just go to gmail.com and where it says "gmail" under the google logo, click the drop down and choose contacts.

Contacts cleanup in the playstore.

Yep, I get it. But why do it manually when an awesome dev already created something for us?!

Thanks lemaj5 - I'll give it a go.

There was an app that could do that.
It wasn't in the market. It was great at fixing numbering, but I can't find it now

go to settings > call >assisted dialing > untick enable assisted dialing

lol @ segregate..
its not in the messaging app. try searching sms messaging in the android store for alternatives..
You can try using Go SMS. With the help of gesture and tabs you can switch between threaded and label views
yeah right, for your convenience here you go m8.
And here is a segregated screenie...

Well, as said above - GO SMS.

[app] Life Contacts

Yesterday i noticed a new app from SE, called Life contacts beta.
Like described on market:
life.contacts makes your communication fast, simple and pretty. The widget will show pictures of your most frequently used contacts right on your homescreen. And just tap a picture to get in touch.
The widget will learn how you communicate and select contacts based on that. This way you will always have your most relevant contacts in your widget.

Yeah I agree
Been using it on my x10 for a while
I love the look of it

It looks great using it for a while now, but the two bigger images are on low quality
They're determined by the quality of your contact image... if you've pulled down a facebook thumbnail image then it will be..
I tried login with my Facebook account but it was not able to login, I have no problem to login with my Google account.
Anyone knows why?

Did you try it with SE Home?
the idea is great but the app is evil, gives med 2x entries of every number of the contacts that appear in the life.contact widget, extremly anoying.

Don't have this all contact shows one time :S
What i noticed is that it makes the launcher slow, it lags when sliding the screens, removing the widget helps.
THe widget fills only half the screen. Wondering if its possible for it to take up the whole screen, all with my fav contacts or recently dialed etc. they should have these options.
The widget wont show images on my Xperia Arc... Any ideas what it could be?
I have synced it to facebook, but still without any luck

Just tried that, and without any luck.
Last time I used it only one of my friends had a image on there, the rest were blank...
Today I uninstalled the app and re-installed it, and now no one has a image. Can it be that my contacts have a facebook profile picture?

Gmail is not default?

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?

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.

New version of Gmail

The newest version of Gmail is supposed to have the ability to delete and archive an email right from the notification (on jelly bean). I updated and don't see this ability. I don't see how this is an option. Has anyone else experienced this? What's the deal?
Thanks

This is really bothering me. Don't know what is going on.
It only works if you receive one email at a time from my experience. For example if you have it on auto sync an a new email is received. It won't work if you manually sync and 10 emails pop up. Again this is what I'm experiencing.
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
Try doing a reverse 'pinch-to-zoom' on a message in your notification tray. It should zoom out and give you the options to archive or reply.
I see the "Archive" and "Reply" options, but where's "Delete"?
Just select the messages you want to delete and the option will show up in icon bar

From the Gmail app, go to Settings>General Settings>Swiping Conversation List>Always Delete and I think the option in your notifications will allow you to delete.

Thanks! I saw that option but for some reason thought it was only for the conversation list within the app, not the drop-down menu. Just gave it a shot and it worked!

[Q] Surrounding default phone app in AVATAR Rom

Hello there, I'm currently using [ROM][UNOFFICIAL BETA][CM10] Avatar ROM for Motorola Atrix MB860[Updated 17th Feb 13]
HTML:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2140902
and have been enjoying it. I installed GO contacts EX and Go Dialer EX but for the life of me I can't seem to figure out how to stop the Avatar Rom for using the default dialer when it sends or receives a call. I've gone through and looked at every option I can search through and there is nothing that allows me to uncheck / remove / ignore the default phone app.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Thanks for the reply. That was the first place I looked. Unfortunately I think the default dialer is hijacking Go Contacts/dialer EX. Go Contacts is set for the default already but the moment I dial out from it, the default dialer takes over on both outgoing and incoming calls. It's kind of annoying but I can simply get rid of Go Contacts and just live with the default. It will be a love/hate relationship It beats having the two programs competing all the time.

I've never tried it before, but root your device (if you haven't already), then go into system apps and delete the default dialer. this might work, but make sure you have your preferred dialer installed ahead of time. this is just an idea, idk if it works

It was a good idea but after I deleted dialer.apk (backed it up just in case), the system pasted a new dialer.apk in it's place (the original default one) once I launched exdialer lol. I have to admit, it is kind of comical how persistent that dialer.apk is Thanks again for the help. I think I'm stuck with it
