You do realize that the options menu scrolls, right.. ?

Once the contacts app is opened again, the sim contacts will show again.
THis thing is driving me crazy.
That contacts to display option wont stick, at least in my rom Omega 13.1.

Lost Viber Integration
Hi! Apart from what you are asking I lately lost another way to place Viber calls, and that is through the contacts application. In the past all of my friends who have Viber would have a Viber icon in their Contacts entry, so I could dial them over Contacts directly. This icon is now gone and I cannot add the Viber account to the "Accounts and Sync" settings. I can see it when I select "Add Account" but when I select Viber the onlx thing that happens is the application starting, the account is not added. I am on Westcrips Resurrection Pro V 1.1. Any ideas how I can get that funtionality back?
Hey buddy,
the easiest way if u don't select the standard for dialing.
So when u swipe on a contact from left->right, u can choose how u wanna dial.
For example:
^Dialer
^Skype [If u have installed]
^Viper
If u don't get this possibility to choose, check the settings for standard of dialer in "settings > applications > all"
Hope this helps...

Bug phone icon with Cyano 7,2

Hi guys,
I just installed the CyanoGen Mod 7.2 stable and it's fantastic. But I noticed this morning that the phone icon is linked to contacts list and not to numeric dialing. This is a problem because sometimes I need to digit directly a phone number without passing through my personal contacts list.
Is there a fix about this problem?

Go to any tab on the phone/contacts app, hit the menu key, select preferences, go all the way down and at the second to last option is the "default tab"... select Phone and you're done

Great!! That's the way it is!!

[Q] Is it possible to change PIN lock screen appearance?

hello
i checked out widgetlocker and other lockscreen apps.
but the always juwt add another layer rather than modify the actual security screens.
i use the pin method to protect my phone.
and i do not want to first have to swipe away a screen to get to it.
but i would like to place a thing or two on the pin lock screen.
e.g. contact information in case the phone is lost or the ability to directly call someone without unlocking the phone.
(e.g. rather than just being able to call emergency numbers i would add a "call emergency contact" feature)
i was wondering if anybody could tell me which file contains the necessary pin screen layout information, i.e. which file would need to be modified to achieve this?
hope someone can help me out
or does someone know how to activate emergency contacts on the lock screen?

Well, you can put your contact under the "Owner Info", and it will show up on the PIN unlock screen (I use PIN lock myself). But as for having an actual shortcut/button to call a number, I have no idea...
already set the owner info, but that's not quite the same.
especially as it does not appear when you are charging or when the sim lock is shown.
i know that "ice_isenabled" should show the extra "group" and then show an additional button on the homescreen.
but it doesn't seem to work on my samsung.
motorola owners seem to be able to activate it...

Hmm... I do have the "ICE - Emergency Contacts" group, and I have some people in that group, but I didn't know it's supposed to enable an extra button/shortcut. I just checked, and it doesn't seem to work for me either...

Could it be something specific to a Moto custom UI (MotoBlur, or whatever it's called)?
which firmware are you using?
maybe you can see the group and add members but "ice_isenabled" isn't set yet?

[Q] Sony Xperia P notification sound not working

I tried all this. Every thing is fine. When I restart my phone it works for some time. But later after some time, it again repeats the same problem automatically.
Same happens to me. Although I don't miss the notification sound it's something bad.
how did you update/flash JB stock? I upgraded using the FlashTool with wipe data and cache
everything works well ever since I upgraded to JellyBean (European version rom), the only thing that didn't work well is the NFC (which probably is a Kernel issue) and the battery drain
its the same with me .. i just flashed the pre rooted jb hoping that the problem would not occur in this update ( yes it was in the ics as well ) but it seems that its still there .. though the 8mp camera is working .. can anyone suggest how to solve this .. freggin tired of missing all my messages
It's due to third party app that control the sound...
Like, blacklist, profile scheduler, go sms etc...
If you've, uninstall and try for some days...
You can temporarily get notifications back with wipe cache and dalvic cache from titanium or reset settings

Hey . This is because of a USSD code running in the background that causes your notifications sound to stop and it's because of the service provider ,not the phone .[In my case - vodafone]
Solution
Set default notification tone to silent.
Go to messaging settings and chose whatever ringtone you want.
For Gmail,go to label settings and change there.
Repeat the same for other apps that you need and your problem should be solved .
