Hello,
I wasnt sure we can remove all the junk/non junk apps without rooting the phone and i accidently removed "top contacts" widget app from my xperia s, i dont want to flash new rom to it already. So if someone would be so kind to post apk or a backup of this application i would be grateful.
any idea?
I have some snapshots of all apk's for xperia S, but im not sure which of them provides "top contacts" (favourite/starred contacts) widget, can someone check in titanium backup how its called ?
Top contacts
apk name: com.sonyericsson.androidapp.smart
You can get it from Play Store. Search for 'Top Contacts'.

Hi guys!
I have just bought Sony Ericsson Xperia Pro. I was having HTC ChaCha before this.
So before selling my HTC, I backed up my Contacts, SMS, and Calendar using an application 'MS Backup' from Android Market (Google Play).
The Calendar entries and SMS were saved as XML file.
Now when I bought my Xperia Pro, I went to Android Market and tried to find the same application, but it was gone.
I somehow managed to restore my contacts and SMS, but I am still unable to restore my Calendar Entries which are very important for me.
Can anyone help me how to restore my calendar from that XML file?

Have you searched the web for that app you used with your htc?
I think you still can find it.
Maybe your phone isn't compatible and thats the reason why the app isn't listed.

Yes, I have searched Google Play but the application was not found. I also thought that the application is not compatible with my Xperia, hence I opened Google Play on my friend's HTC ChaCha, but the application was not found on it too.
Did you backup your Calendar entries with your google account? That would have been a better option.
you probably live outside US. download and use market enabler.
then try searching the apps you wanted
Hi there
I recently rooted my Samsung Galaxy S3 and I've flashed it with Codenamedroid.
I decided I didn't like the 'stock' agenda app so I deleted it.
I have chosen another agenda app now but it seems it doesn't sync anymore.
When I go to agenda's>agenda's to show the list is empty.
At the bottom there is a button that says agendas to sync I am directed to the accounts I added.
When I click on an account I can sync the contacts, e-mails and stuff like that but the agenda isn't in it.
I've searched for the standard Samsung calendar app (and found it), but when I try to install it it says 'app wasn't installed'.
is there another solution to this problem then reflashing the rom again (because I've synced all of my accounts, put personal preferences to apps and stuff like that).
Thanks a lot!

Instead of using a import/restore app for your contacts, you could always sync it to your google acct and it will automatically restore once you sign in during initial google setup...

I have similar problem where all my contacts have been duplicated and then there are contacts with no phone no.'s. Isnt there a way to group the accounts or delete duplications?
-Phone > contacts > visible contacts > Show all
-Export all your contacts to a .csv file. (on the sd card)
-Delete all contacts: phone, sim, Google and others (tango, Whatsapp etc.)
-Log in to your Google account and import your contacts from that csv file you created. I suggest doing this on a pc.
Now, in Google, you can manage your contacts by editing, merging or marking all and deleting duplicates (if there're any)
Your phone will automatically sync all your refined Google contacts and of course Tango, Whatsapp, Viber etc. will get that contact list and everything will be synced and perfectly set up.
Then it's up to you what contacts you want to have in the contact list and whether you only want to show "phone numbers only"
Saving contacts on phone or sim card is a bit old school
I'd like to recommend, like y2quila suggested, using Google for contacts because it's reliable and painless. It's also a great time saver, especially when changing phones or in case you lose your phone or sim card. All you have to do is logging in to your Google account and voila

If your contacts are already on Google then log in to your account and mange them by marking all and deleting duplicates. If they're not on Google I suggest doing so by exporting them to a file on sd card or pc and then importing them in Google and doing as suggested.

this's what i did
i view all contacts together and then upload them to google account then locate contacts.google.com and there i edit them so i start search in my contacts for example i seach ( @yahoo ) and delete all ( @hotmail ) and delete all etc etc then for facebook contacts i hade to chose them one by one you can see them names without numbers i also select them manualy
but after all i have a problem with whatsup messenger when installing i get error about android.acore.proccess crached and after a too many retries i get it installed and even so after installed i get every 15 sec the error message so i think ur problem is def than mine so i hope u get help
and another thing managing the contacts from contacts.google.com is easier becuase when ur done deleteing non numbers accounts select them all and from option menu click on find duplicates and then remove them or search google play store for duplicate remover
https://play.google.com/store/search?q=duplicate+contacts&c=apps
a little note about XDA fourms : this fourm is to show off don't believe there's a smart people here because this post has been here for 3 days and no one help you can find here a people smart enough to make roms and mods but in little problems like this they see the post and run away so try to help ur self like i did.
Hi guys,
many users (myself included) are very disappointed with the fact that most android tablets don't show the people/Contacts app in the app drawer.
I know its a tablet and its understandable that phone app is hidden but we still need contacts to email, facebook, etc...
In my case the app is there. I've checked /system/app and contacts along contact sync are there. I can even acess contacts if I search a contact name in a Google search box and it leads me to the contacts app.
so the big question is: how do we force the app to show in app drawer or create somekind of desktop shortcut to access it ?
best regards,
remorema
anyone?!?!?!
