where is the period button? - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

Well i know where it is. It's in the number/signs button in the left corner. But it used to be next to space on arc. I mean it's a key you use all the time when you text. First ss is from a text message. Second ss is from the browser where the keyboard is deffrent and the period button is next to space. Theird ss is from some settings where the period is also there. And the keyboard is abit deffrent again.
So my question is. Is this the same on your devices? Or did i miss something? Can i change the look of the keyboard in mail and sms. Without downloading a completly new keyboard.

Hi,
I'm guessing you also have a Danish phone? I'm not sure as to why it isn't displaying an period, because it do so by default on my phone.
Try calling Sony's Xperia support on 70203603. If you didn't get any SmartTags, you'll also be able to get them for free here.

Is normal, can't really do anything about it...
The best way to enter a period is to either press space and select it from the autocomplete bar, or just press space twice.
Another method is to use the character pane. You can now tap, drag to a symbol and then release to enter symbols with one tap/swipe.

Yes it's a danish phone. I just called the number. And he told me the most easy way was to hit space twice after you finished a sentence. Then it make a dot and a space so your ready for the next sentence.
I told him about that i didn't got any NFC tags. So i just gave him the IMEI number and he will send me 4 tags in the mail for free.
So you deserve a Thanks

Portrait keyboard prefers "O" over "P"

Can someone else confirm this...
When using the portrait (small) keyboard when typing a text message, if I press the "P" button anywhere to the left of center (say the left 30% of the button), I get an "O" instead. It looks like the letter "O" will get pressed if you press anything from the left of the "O" button all the way to almost the middle of the "P" button. To get "P" reliably, I have to press the right half of the "P" button.
Is this by design? Is it supposed to favor "O" over "P"? Or is my tilted/rotated screen causing this?
Mike
Mine does it too, only with the O and the P.
me too..................

Some times my delete button registers as L. It happened with multiple keyboards.
Calibrating the Keyboard helps.
Yea always calibrate the keyboard It's helps. At first I was typing everything off and since It's been nearly perfect.

Perhaps the guy has big hands. But calibrating does do wonders,try it and let us know your results
I tried calibrating a half dozen times. It does help a tiny bit but not much: I still get a "preferred O". Plus: calibration only works for the stock keyboard and I prefer the Gingerbread Keyboard from the market.
Mike
Calibrating completely fixed it for me.
Yeah that fouled up Gingerbread Keyboard...meh.
LOL j/k
The Stock we have is just a refined/skinned version of it.

Everyone else has mentioned it, but I will too.
I've always calibrated the keyboard with a new phone or new ROM. The only disadvantage is when someone else uses it. My wife hates trying to type anything on it.

[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] Jelly Bean 'Complete Action Using'

Hi,
Just flashed a Jelly Bean ROM to my wife's I9000 and it seems that there is now a very annoying feature. The 'Complete Action Using' popup menu now requires an extra click to load the app you want.
Previously you had the option to select an app to perform a certain function, for example to make a call you could choose Phone, Skype or Viber etc., you also had the option to set this choice as the default so you would not get asked the question again. In this instance, my wife (and me as well) would not want to select a default action as to which app you would use to make a call as this would depend on who you were calling, network connection etc.
Now, on Jelly Bean, if you don't set a default action, you are forced to press 'Just Once' every time you want to start an app from this menu, doubling the amount of clicks than before.
Is there any workaround for this?
Thanks.
*bump*?
I'm just struggling with the same annoying semi-'feature' :/

Very annoying feature. Anyway to change it?

@.wojtek,
Have you received anything from google regarding this issue? My wife's really bending my ear about it now. Might have to go back to ICS, just because of this!!!
no, unfortunatelly not... and I think I won't at all. The only solution will be probably to star the issue on the google code and make a 'fuss' on the internet about it...
Jelly Bean Anoying defult "complete action using"
Man.. how annoying.,
could someone please make a patch. if one doesn't already exist
You can double tap the desired program and it will launch that as the once only selection. Or you can try a Rom that has restored the single tap behavior PAC has this so you only need to tap once to select the once only option.

[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.
Sent from my Nexus 7
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?

Question Where is Call Details?

I had a missed called,
Looking all over the place to find out what time I missed the call,
Impossible to find this information?
I can't believe for Google Progress means Regress
Some suggestions online send you to
Recents | Call Histrory | Long Press on the number
All I see is
- Number
- Copy Number
- Edit number before call
- Block/report spam
- Delete
What am I missing? Even if it is somewhere that I missed, the fact that I have to search the internet and then post about it just to able to get a basic information about a call says a lot about Google.
Should be in the dialer under 'Recents'.

So you don't have anywhere like this:
Yeah I see recents, then I see a list of recent calls
All it says is `Sat` for when was the call
I want to know the time.
So I long Press on the call in question and I see the screenshot above.
Do you see the time on your phone?
It seems to only show the current days time for calls. However if you click on the middle of the call you want the time for in recents you end up with this:
Then click history and you've a full list of the calls from that contact.
Thank you,
@ Google, Insanely intuitive (sarcasm)
On my Pixel 6, I can see the date/time of the call by going to Recents > Short-press the number > History. The Day and time are shown at the bottom of the screen.
