[Q] APP Recommendation for Planning??? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey there...
Im a supervisor and every three months (no more, no less) I need to check the status of some wires on different locations, and attach a picture of it.
Do you know about an app that notifies me every 3 months wich location I need to check on next, and it would be nice that my partners can see the info as well in their phones... and attach pictures to it.
Thanks in advance

I think Google Agenda will do the job.
You just add an event every 3 month.
You have these options when creating the event:
Add location
Add guests
Add attachment
The only requirement is to have a Google account , you and your partners

First Name, Last Name in Pocket Outlook

Can anyone tell me if there is a way to default Pocket Outlook to display First Name, Last Name.
I have set all my contact on the PC to First, Last, but if I create a new contact on the XDA or I edit the name of any contact on the XDA it reverts to Last, First.
I have tried this on a Dell Axim X5 (PPC2003) and this seems to be the same.
Thanks
Matt
Yep got that same prob!! But I got around it by saving the contact to SIM then copy to phone and from there add any additional details.
Hope this helps.

If anyone has an easy answer to this one, I'd be very pleased.
I've been fighting with this one for months.

This will work but as soon as you edit any part of the name in the address book it reverts to Last, First again and you have to repeat the process again!
When you sysn to Outlook 2002/XP go to contact select the contact name you want to edit their is an option called "File as" which is drop down menu. it will display the First AND Last Name . Save AND Close repeat step for other contacts.
Hope this helps :wink:
This doesn't help when you add a new contact on the XDA, it files it LAST, FIRST, until you get a chance to sync the XDA and change it back in Outlook.

Oh boy, my favorite Pocket Outlook annoyance, one of many, since I use the GroupWise 6.5 client with IntelliSync to synchronize. What can I say: masochism, a way of life?
Anyway, I solved it by cutting the last name and appending that to the first name for all (250-300 ) my contacts. Only takes one night and is a real good practise for getting used to the touchscreen.
I have searched on a lot of forums, and only 1 tip can be read time after time: get a different PIM, even if you don't have the issue we're discussing right now.
Really, why Microsoft didn't put an option to change the View in there will probably never cease to amaze me :shock:

I understand your point but it all depends how often you sysnc your XDA and use Outlook 2000/XP as you PIM . Well it's one soultion..... :?

The best solution for me is to change all contacts to First Name only containing all full name, but as I am a lazy software engineer I wrote some software to do it. I also wrote it to change any (UK) mobile number it finds to +44 at the start so the caller ID appears when then send sms.
I don't have an ftp site so if anyone wants to e-mail me I can send them a copy - runs on the PC with Office 2000 or greater installed and you can preview what changes it will do before altering anything.
Usual disclaimer applies - Don't blame me and make a back up of your contacts in Outlook before you start.

4/29/2012 Sprint PIcture Delete

Hey there,
Had to pay my bill today online and I noticed that there was an outstanding message.
Message is :::
"Picture Mail online storage is being discontinued 4/30/12. It's important you move the pictures and videos you want to keep to your PC or to your favorite photo or social networking site before 4/30/12. Visit sprint.com/picturemail for more information." ::::
So, just incase you have any stored on there you might want to d/l them to a local source when you can. I already checked mine and lost a whole bunch bc it seems their doing it little by little. Was just giving everyone a heads up so to speak. Honestly, not really at all bothered by this as I didn't like the fact that all pictures messages were saved no matter what you ( the customer ) chose. If you ask me its a good thing. I didn't like big brother always knowing what has been received nor sent. LOL
Also, for those of you who didn't know, if you did have a picture message but made an accidental delete, you still have a chance to retrieve them now before it gets to late. ( if it was during the last 45 days or somn like that)
Anywayz, sure a lot of people received the message but just putting it out there for those that didn't. Hope it helps ...
Z ..........
Good find. I didn't realize I had a bunch of saved pictures on there. Now they're safe and sound on my phone.
Thanks!
Didn't realize that people actually used that. Don't think I even have log in credentials for it.
Where can I access this from my phone?
I had to look this up also as I have never accessed it before. I didn't have any photos on the site.
LINK
is there a way to see pics i received?
While none are saved unless you personally do it, it tracks every picture mail you ever sent or received for a few months.
I used it a lot since I flash new ROMs and sometimes forget to save the images.

just use your normal browser and if you do not have your login info, hit the " no send me password" and they will send it to you via text or email. ( not sure what you have set up for notifications) and then logon as normal. This is from what I've been told but maybe someone that needs to do this can confirm?
thanx,
Z ..........
I went on that site last year and it had pics I uploaded way back when I was using the Sanyo 8100 10 years ago...so yeah..while you're on a different OS and time where sprint uses mms..back then they didn't...so all those picture mail pics are there.

[Q] Question about an app I am looking for

Hey guys, I cannot seem to find an app I want. I am about ready to start developing it, but I really do not want to repeat work if not needed. What I am looking for is as follows. I have a list of about 15 phone numbers I have been calling every other day looking for something that is not always in stock. I would like to be able to put this list of numbers into a group name and when I click the list, for example (Nexus 7) it would pull up a list of numbers as well as when I last called them. Maybe even keeping the list in a specific order or order of the last I called. Any help you guys could provide let me know. Otherwise work will start tomorrow.
Thank you
Uno

Instagram 'Close Friends ' *Hack?*

Hi guys,
Sorry if this is in the wrong section.
Instagram trialled a "close friends" or "favourites" feature which allowed users to share posts with only particular users in their so called 'close friends list'. This trial was around the 23/06/2017.
My old Instagram account used this feature and it was great! However, it turns out they have cut the feature, unless you have already used it...
So my new account does NOT have this functionality and I would like to regain it!
Apparently the with and without the feature, the apks are identical, and it is simply a server-side switch to enable the feature and particular accounts. I was wondering if it would be possible to manually turn on the feature to spoof the server into thinking you had the feature and therefore enabling it on your account.
Please correct me if any of this information is incorrect or unfeasible.
Thanks in advance,
James
I currently have this feature and it appeared in my main account randomly, because it's a beta feature for only some IG accounts. I can't tell you if you could "force" the app to have it, but I assume it's impossible. The only way is to wait I think.

Want to install a custom dialer on Pixel 4A

Hello guys.
I have been using 4A for about 6 months now. My calling is heavy due to nature of my work. However, I am really disappointed by the dialer which 4A comes with due to following reasons-
1. No unlimited call logs which is a very big bummer. It's such a basic thing any phone maker must provide.
2. Smart search from dialer is as bad as it can be. I'm coming from a Xiaomi phone and Google should really learn a few things how to make a dialer app. The search is billion times better in the latter.
3. Lack of call recording which I can live with but is desirable.
Basically I'm asking if I can install any third party dialer (preferably MiUI) ? I'm ready to root if it's needed.
Please help me. I'm on the verge of going back to my MIUI phone as my main phone just because of this crappy dialer.
PS: I can't go custom ROM way because I don't want to lose stock camera's quality.
Thanks

Try using TruePhone ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hb.dialer.free ). I have call recording and I have never came to a situation where call log was too short - I have checked my favorite contact and I have log since I installed it.
P. S. U have root on my phone, but I am not convinced if it is needed. Try it as IMHO is the best dialer with tons on customization.

Hi,
Can you elaborate on these two?
I ask because if I click the middle "Recents" button at the bottom, the call log is very limited. But if I then click the three dot button in the top right and select "Call History", it will go back very far in time.
Also, what problems are you having with the smart search? Can you mention a couple of examples?

I did check the history and surprisingly found out today that my call records are only till 6th of April from today and then directly to Oct 2020. Don't know how is that possible, but this is what I found.
I'll explain my problem to you.
When I bought this phone, I had imported around 10k call logs records but when I used to check history of numbers I dial frequently, I came to know it's not storing unlimited history. Like the person whom I have called 20 times has only 2 entries in the log.
Until today I didn't know that history between 20 Oct 2020 to April 5, 2021 is missing. I don't have a sane explanation for this.
Regarding smart search, see following scenarios:
It doesn't search if I type keywords which are between the names. Eg name is John, if I type 646, it should show but it doesn't. It always search with first letter only, be it name or surname.
Second case.
I have a name saved called Prathmesh, my dialer always fails to show it. I dial 77284, it shows other relevant search results but not this and when I type next digit, no results at all. In the frequent updates of Google dialer phone app, after one particular update, it started searching but after next update again stopped. This is one example, I can give more.
Third case.
It doesn't search from unsaved numbers. Suppose I vaguely remember I had received a call from a number which had 5555 at last but couldn't exactly remember, there is no way I could find using Google dialer.

Thanks for app suggestion buddy.
It solved almost all of my problems.
Now I can search the way I want, can record calls, and possibly can store unlimited logs.
Thanks a ton again.

I was happy with the app but now call recording isn't working.
I have been using drupe dialer (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.drupe.app&hl=en_US&gl=US) for many years to address exactly the problems that you have mentioned. You can give it a try. But here also, the inbuilt call recorder is not working with Pixel 4a. It used to work with my older Oneplus X.
