How to save email attachments using stock email app? - T-Mobile HTC One (M7)

Ive got the stock email app for my main email account (outlook.com). For the life of me I dont see an option to save an attachment. Theres no option in the menu when email is open, and opening the attachment then pressing (short or long) only gives the option of "details".
hepl!

I never use the Email app, but if you scroll all the way down to the bottom of the message, below any possible in-line attachments, do you see the file at the bottom?

Its actually at the top, and the only option is to click it...which opens it. Long pressing does not bring up a menu.

Well, I kind of found a workaround. Using Astro file mgr, I found the attachemnts in the download folder. I moved them to the gallery folder so they show up in gallery. Kind of a PITA.

Direct Dial???

On my Captivate I had the ability to add a Direct Dial icon to my screen, allowing me to call someone with one press of a button. I was using Launcher Pro, and am not sure if it was that launcher of the Samsun firmware that gave me the ability to add that shortcut.
However, on the Atrix, also running launcher pro, I don't see an option anywhere to add direct dial, as in its missing from the list of things to add.
I can add a contact to the page, but then there's a second step needed to actually dial the number.
Any thoughts on how I can get around it?
Nobody? Am I the only one who ever used the direct dial function?
I did it too, cant find it on atrix either
Had the same problem, here's what you can do:
Get the [free] app "Folder Organizer lite" from the market...Then go to the create a shortcut menu, and select Folder Organizer item - pick Direct Call / Direct Text etc. from the next menu and you're good to go. Works great! There is built-in functionality with Blur but I find it to be very flaky / hard to setup.
This worked! Thank you very much. Now I'm 100% happy with the phone!

how did you get this to work? after i make the contact in the app, I keep getting the error message that "shortcuts were only available in the paid version" whenever i click on the new contact .
Animated widget is pretty cool too. I can direct dial or text any contact in my book from a single widget. The other app that worked well was anycut.

You don't make the contact in the app. You just add a shorcut like you would any other on your homescreen (so press and hold and select shortcut), in the shortcuts menu there is an option for folder organizer items, select that and then select direct dial from the list.

I don't know what is an issue here but I'm running LauncherPro as well and on my Atrix speed dial works just fine. Simple press dialer and old any button except 1 which is voicemail.

home page mail client

You know how when you press the home page web app it redirects you to whatever browser you selected as default? Can that happen for the home page mail client? I want to press the home page mail client and be redirected to the stock gmail client?
Does anyone know if this can happen?
Just replace the icon with the Gmail icon. Right? (I don't have a Note yet.)
The home row can't be adjusted like other phones. Thanks though.

^^^ ??? Sure it can. You go to applications, hit edit, go to customizable view if necessary, and then drag and drop as needed. Then you can switch back to alphabetical view if you want and the changes to the dock icons will stick.
OMG I had no idea! Thanks!

[Q] contact icon is missing

I dont know what happen. I woke up one morning and the contact icon on the bottom of the home screen is gone. I usualy have four icons there. Phone contact messaging and application. But now i only have three. I still could see contact icon inside application. how do i fix it?
Open application drawer, menu, edit, long press the relevant icon and put it back? Or similar, I forget the exact order of things in TW.
how do i do that? im running on stock ics. I didnt root
I just told you? What's unclear and why are you going on about root?
In the 'Phone contact messaging and application', click on the application icon.
press the 'menu/options' button - this is the left of the 3 buttons at the bottom of the phone. this will pop-up a menu. Select 'Edit' from this menu.
You can now move all the icons about. You can move icons from page to page and also from the page to the 'Phone contact messaging and application'.
Once you have changed it to the way you want it, select the 'menu/options' button and select Save.
This has been already answered, but I thought I would make it a bit clearer. There is no requirement to root the phone for this as it is a standard feature of Android.

Simple way to share a picture?

Okay, this may be a dumb question, but it's been bugging me for a while:
Say I download a picture in the browser and want to text it to somebody. What I would like to do is swipe down the notification bar, tap the download to view the picture, then send to messages or whatever from there. But Sense doesn't give you the share option. The only thing you can do is "view details."
Even in Reddit News, an app with this kind of built-in -- you can download a pic, then you get a nice preview in the notification pull down, but when you hit "share," it just takes you to the dumb viewer screen that allows nothing but "view details."
Is there a way, or an app, that can replace this default image viewer with something useful?

when you have the gallery open up and it's showing you the picture. click the middle of the screen. this will bring up the menus. the button on the bottom left is share, where you have about 5 options of how to share depending on bluetooth, nfc, and social apps/cloud services installed.
No, I know how to share from the gallery, my point was wanting to share from the notification area without having to open another app to do so.
Ever look at a picture from a file browser? You just get the picture, no options to do anything with it.
Anyways, I installed QuickPic and it manages to do what I was looking for just fine!

Question How to use the ZF9

I just got the ZF9, that is my first Zenfone, so I am a bit puzzled about how to make it work for me, so my hope is that some oldtimers would be able to direct me to be happy about the phone!
I have been searching for help but found nothing.
My questions:
1. how do I get a blank front page ?
2. how do I create app folders on front page?
3. how do I fasten apps at the front?
4. how do I get rid of google on the first page?

1. You can't create a new blank page but you can drag widget or app to the new blank page at the far right.
2. Hold empty space on front page and you will see a checkmark on each app. Select the app you want to group then create folder.
3. You can lock home screen in the preferences -> home screen.
4. Hold empty space on front page, at the far left you can toggle on or off the google now page
