Hey guys.
I'm on nocturnal something or other running ics and sense 3.6. Everything works well except that my contact pictures don't show up on my contacts widget (i use golauncher) or on handcent.
I have my contacts synced with Facebook. In the contacts app the pictures show. On the contacts widget they don't. Same thing with messaging, in the stock messaging app the pictures show but not in Handcent.
Any ideas why? Thanks.

what is the best dialer with big numbers,is there a dialer like the nexus s dailer?
I use dialer one. It is free from the market. It has smart dialing- like the HTC dialer. Doesn't look like Nexus dialer though.
Thanks a lot I like it.

My favorite one is atakephone. What I like is that I can the skin on it also you can schedule a call right from the contact or call log to call the person back later. It also shows up on your calender in gmail. Hope that helps.
another good one is "go contacts" (it includes the dialer)...i really like it, and it is themed like miui
its free and the info can be found here

Get Photo Unlocker from the Market. I've got FB pics in my Dialer One.

Thanks alot photo unlocker does not work with the stock cm7 dialer. I noticed it only seemed to unlock 1 photo does dialer one use more battery than the standard one
I've never had any issues with Dialer One, and I've used it since my Hero.

This should work using the stock dialer in cm7 if you've installed the facebook app and set it to sync contacts. However, I think you have to set each contact manually. Find the contact, long press until the menu comes up and select edit (choose the contacts app if it gives you any options). You should then see the various merged contacts (eg. Google contacts and Facebook). Scroll down to the facebook section and tap on the facebook profile pic. A menu should come up with one option, "use this picture" (or something to that effect). Tap on it and save your changes. Voila...
For some reason I still can't see my facebook contacts with the stock dialer or dialer one when I used photo unlocker it unlocked about 3 contacts. Before I downloaded cm7 I had all my contacts linked with my facebook so now when I go into a contacts under notes it says <htc><facebook>id and a lot of numbers. When I go to edit contact it does not give me an option to link it facebook at all.
I really like AContact...
But make sure you go with the little green dude with glasses. There's another one that isn't by "movesti" that is not great.
just want to say thanks for this post.... I hate the stock CM dailer.
+1 for TouchPal dialer.
i like having my contacts pictures added from facebook, so i selected the option of syncing only contacts already in my phonebook, but when i use the dialer it shows all of my facebook contacts. is anyone else experiencing this?
Yes

Hey,
The stock messaging app sucks on this, why does it show messages so wierdly? Like all my messages are at the bottom while all the recieved message are at the top?
It should be one after the other, as in CM7 messaging app that I used on my previous phone.
Someone know how to fix this? or get better messaging app like the cm7?
Check the timestamp of the messages! It might be possible that the app thinks that the messages you've been sent are from the past due to a mis-matching time zone/time setting!
I use go sms pro.
Free from market.

Go to time and date settings untick automatic update then choose your timezone ie: +8 or -4. That will fix your problem.

I also switched from the stock sms application and moved to PANSI SMS... even i replaced the front icon as well. Though i didn't uninstall the stock sms app but i disable all the notifications thats relate with that....
look for the sgs2 4g thread in the themes and apps section. there you'll find a little different mms.apk, flashable via cwm. hope it helps

I've tried it with Chomp SMS, yahoo mail, k9 mail, Handcent SMS, the default cm7 SMS app and the stock email app.
Supposedly it doesnt work with the latest Gmail, but it is in fact it only things its ever worked with. Odd huh?
Can anyone give me a hand?
Many thanks!

I used to use these for ADW andGO launcher, but it's another service/process that runs all the time so I normally don't use. They show notification icons over dialer/SMS when used with the correct launcher
This ISN'T my Transformer Prime
So I have gone through go SMS. Handcent. chomp. The original messaging app. I like messanger 7. But I couldn't figure out how to send pics. I know u can get a theme to make go SMS pro look like it but. It's not as good. Is there something I could look at that could help me out? Thanks

The apps you listed are pretty much the most known and most used SMS apps. You might just be stuck with those. You can try an app called Pansi SMS. It's supposed to be very fast and light. But unfortunately that's about it in terms of SMS.
I tried most of the SMS apps available and settled on GO SMS. It has a ton tweaks and settings you can play with to make it your liking.
i see...................
,,,,,,,,,,,,,, go sms or iphone styled sms or messenger app sms or xms pro use one of these ................... if u r not comfortable with it try differnt launcher like 360 or adw they have in built sms app or exlauncher /go launcher

I gave Pansi a try and it was pretty lightweight and fast, but I remember switching back to stock for some reason. I think I had MMS problems with it before or something, can't really remember. But I hope it works good for you.
