When viewing email messages (gmail, yahoo, exchange), the message is "zoomed in" so I have to scroll left and right just to view the message. Is there a setting I didn't adjust or something? I want the email message to default to the width of my screen (in portrait orientation), so I don't have to scroll left/right just to read the message. This only happens with HTML messages, so I am guessing that there is a setting that I need to adjust. Guidance/assistance is appreciated!

Hi - I have the same question re scrolling (in gmail) as raised below... I too think that there's probably a setting that I need to adjust in order to avoid having to scroll from left to right? Again, any insight / guidance would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hi,
I can't find a way to add notification to calendar event I created with Google Calendar webapp.
I've used Google Calendar long before I git my Hero, so I've got here couple of calendars (personal, work, school, etc.) already. Hero imported them, no problem so far. But now, the wtf starts: if I try to edit existing event, there is no notification selection. I can edit name, place, time of event, but not notification time. But if I create the event on Hero, and not using the webapp, I can set notification.
So, how to set notifications of existing events?
when i click my webcalender a dialog pops up to generate a new entry. when i click the link "edit event details" the attached screen comes up, with the possibility to add a pop up reminder.
also check on the top right corner of your web calendar "sync", then "sync with android", there is an explanation of reminders.

Oh, so "pop-up notifications" does the trick. Thank you!
Hey everyone,
OK so you know if you use the "Buddies Now" widget, or click someone's picture in the contacts list? It displays that little quick toolbar to call, text, email, facebook etc.
If I click a contact on the "Buddies Now" widget, it displays their Facebook status, but if I click them in contact's list, it does not. I'm pretty sure it used to, but I can't figure out why it would have changed. All my contacts are correctly linked.
Can anybody confirm this behaviour? It would take only seconds of your time, thanks.

I have a "view profile" button at the bottom of the contact, but only because I added Facebook as an account to my dialer/contacts app.
Quickly do me a favour - find a contact that you have that "View profile" link with. Now click their picture at the top left. Does it show their status in the little pop-up menu?
not sure if this helps or not, but some contacts in my phone book if I click on the picture it gives me options such as text call email etc and some come up with a facebook icon which takes me direct to their page.
I dont see status updates and if I am honest I think I may have mine set up wrong somehow as well as some of my fb contacts have no pics at all and others have old pictures so it aint like up to date. Goodness knows why not like! :-(
Ref the buddies thing, sorry I dont have that app.

No. It gives me the popup menu to call/email/msg etc., and that has a facebook link on it as well.
I have two email accounts that I receive push notifications for (hotmail, gmail).
When I open my email shortcut that I placed on my home screen, it defaults to the gmail account. Is there any way to make a shortcut that goes directly to the combined view (to show mail from both accounts in the same view)? I find it slightly annoying to have to switch back and forth to view my unread emails.
BTW: I'm running Xtreme's Senseless ICS ROM
Thanks
FIXED - Combined inbox view

It shouldn't be that hard to figure out but it is. Why is there no clear cut way to show the combined inbox? Luckily another thread explained it...You have to create a widget and the widget can be selected to show the combined view, this will give you consistent combined view when you click on it. I just upgraded to CyanogenMod 4.2.2 Jellybean and it has the same deficiency. You'd think that there would be an option somewhere. Find a Google developer to fix this please.
Clicking in a contact will show the contact complete profile. There´s a way to set to call the default number?
hold your finger on the number u want to be default and a menu will appear with "set as default" on it.
I already done that. My favorites haven default numbers set. In list view mode I can directly call then, but this didnt work in grid view mode.
My question is regarding the option to enable this click-and-call feature on grid view mode. Today when I click in the contact photo I´m redirected to contact page.
I was wondering about this also, my last phone did it by default and its driving me crazy that it doesn't. Any help is greatly appreciated.
I hate that every notification except email has the same sound. How can I change so that text messages have their own notification? Right now text messages and all other random notifications share the same ringtone so I never know if I got a text message or something else.

It doesn't work. If you change it, it changes it for all notifications. Not just texts.
I just figured it out.

I had been looking for this setting for days now and I just stumbled upon it. When you are editing a contact go to the bottom of the contacts information and hit the "ADD ANOTHER FIELD" button. There you will see the ability to add the "Message Tone" field as well as specify a "Vibration Pattern" if wanted. Not sure why they didn't put the Message Tone option on the contact by default.

Mind blow.
Dude, just set any ringtone for notifications via phone settings - it'l be your sms ringtone AND for any other applications having opportunity to create notifications you should open those applications, go their settings and find there option notifications and change notifications sound directly for that application. Logic!
Binrob, I get what you are after because I did a google search for the very same thing. No one here seems to get it.
What happens is all these other apps utilize the same NOTIFICATION sound as your text messages (like Facebook, or playing back-and-forth board games). Binrob and the rest of us want our TEXT messages TO BE DIFFERENT sounding than all the others. I don't want to look at my phone every time i get a notification, but i do want to look at my phone every time someone texts me. There doesn't seem to be a way to customize SMS/TEXT to its own notification sound. Android needs to fix this.
You've answered everyone's question! This should show up #1 on Google search!

Has there been updates since to change to separate notification for all contacts?
I get this issue and NEED them to fix as well! I don't want fb messenger and text messaging and any other notification to have the same sound. I want to know what app the notification is for WITHOUT unlocking and looking at my phone. Also, on my s5 I was able to change my led color for specific apps. If it blinking red I knew it was a text. Blinking green fb message. Blinking blue fb notification. Etc! Please add those back!
You CAN set the sound for messages, go to settings, notifications, advanced ......... choose messages, more settings (at the bottom of the screen), and the next screen is where you change the sound that is made. Not exactly user friendly though!
I think the answer is as simple.as: go to your message app, top right hit: more, Then go to settings and set whatever ringtone you want to have under notifications. I guess this should be what you are looking for.

notificaton tone in message+
The comment that you can set message tones In contacts is correct except that apps like message+ , at least on the Galaxy , ignore that and use their own tones
I just found it....
open messages on the right top corner click there and pick customize ando under tones and there u can pick whatever ringtone for only SMS....
FOR SAMSUNG S9/S9+. To have a specific sound for you messages, go to messaging app/setting/notifications/general notications must be off/emergency alerts must be off. Go to new messages and choose your preferred sounds.
