Is it just me or it is much harder and confusing to manage contacts with current phonebook 4.0 android? The Infinite view looks kinda boring and im having problem getting my contact's status update to show up in it. Does anyone have the same problem/ opinion and idea to solve this??
I just bought a new Xperia X10i the other day because my old nokia crashed and died. I've never had an android phone or iPhone before so I'm having trouble figuring things out. I couldn't export all my contacts onto my sim card from my old phone because it died, so I've been trying to add them manually. My phonebook is filled with all my contacts from facebook, yet I can't see a way to edit those contacts to add a phone number.
I've only had my phone a few days and I'm trying to get everything formatted but I cannot seem to get pictures on all my contacts.In timescape and my phonebook there are only half a dozen pictures (facebook profile pictures) to my entries and plenty of people in my phonebook who have FB accounts. I've even been through and used their full names to try and help connecting the two.I don't want to add all my friends from FB to my phonebook, just include the pictures of the ones already there. There doesn't seem to be a pattern of the ones that are showing and all the others that aren't.
is it possible with some sort of addon or setting to only show my sim contacts in my phonebook, the timescape stuff and all is fine, i just dont want a bunch of peoples emails that i have written once. It is starting to annoy me a bit, so 1. is there a setting i can find on my phone to do it, 2. is there some kind of program/addon to do it or 3. is it possible for you guys to make a softwareupdate so to add the option only to show simcard contacts?
Phonebook every contact has a colour picture next to it completely random with no order whatsoever that I can tell, what is the organisation behind it as it bugs me that its so all over the place
If I have two phone numbers against one contact name. How do I set primary phone number among the two options? I have the latest official SE firmware for x8 in my phone
After update my Xperia x10 to 2.3.3 the phone book is empty, but when i test to send, appaer all contacts tree o four times, any know whats is the problem?.
I instaleted the Backuo & restore utility and the problem d'ont solved
Got an X10, I just noticed that my phone number doesn't show in my Phone book anymore. I didn't have this problem when my phone was new. But ever-since I delayed my payment on my postpaid plan and my outgoing calls/sms got blocked by my provider my phone number wouldn't show up anymore. Now that I've paid up and have outgoing service again it's still not showing on my phone book.
Why my Phonebook shows other person information (name, picture, email, etc) as myself? When I tried to remove/edit, it says that "Timescape Plug-in Manager contact information is not editable for this device".
How can I remove that person details so that my contact details including name, picture (sync with facebook), contact number will be appear again?
I have had a problem for last couple of weeks - When I got the phone (around 2mths ago), I created all my main contacts, added their names, numbers and email addresses. So, at least a month goes by, but then one or two contacts start losing their phone numbers (the name and email address remains). I have tried everything from simply entering and saving the number again via the phonebook and even adding the number from text messages sent by the person in question - each time I have ensured that I have clicked 'done' and/or the save symbol. I exit the phonebook, but if I check back later it's been lost again.
This seems to happen with only one or two particular contacts - I am not sure what is unique about them.
I have read the manual re: phonebook, so I am following all of the steps so I am not sure whether or not the phone has a fault.
Can't see the online contacts in the social phonebook (facebook contacts)!! When I click the online contacts filter in the left hand top corner it shows me no contacts!
Having enterred in to the third week of my life with an x10 (Android 2.1) the frustration level is still high, and one thing that is really annoying is the way you pick up a number to dial from your phonebook. When I open up the default Phonebook on the x10 and selct a contact, Mr AAAAA, I am presented with 7 fields with mr AAAAA's numbers: his Home, Work, Mobile, Home Fax, Work Fax, Pager and Main. I do only have one telphone number of mr AAAAA and that is his mobile number that is correctly stored in that field; that means that the other six numberfields are empty. So far, so god.
Since all 7 fields are listed as a selectable option each item in the list become quite thin, approximately 0.5 cm high, and since most grownups on this planet has fingers that are wider than 0.5 cm it requires some precsion to select the right field. This is my problem, when I try to select Mr AAAA's mobile number, the x10 often selects the number besides (below or above) although that field is empty! The x10 then tries to set up a call to a blank number and obviously the call fails (and I am back to the initial screen again).Surely this must be a bug, why is an empty field selectable at all? One can even wonder why it is at all presented in the list of numbers since it is empty; I could understand if the field is selectable if I had pressed the "edit" key but that is not the case. The correct way would be to present all 7 filed although only the fileds contain a number should be selectable and the other dimmed, this standard hotlink concept. I consider this as a bug and wonder if I am the only one with this problem and if someone has found a solution to this problem. More important, is this a bug recognized by Sone Ericsson and is there a solution in the pipeline?
How can I have my x10 mini pro display my contacts' chosen picture (as saved in the phonebook) and not the contact's picture from facebook? I don't necessarily want to separate the contact from their facebook profile.
After I updated to 2.1 i cant see the phonebook any longer in my car (BMW 1 serie with IDRIVE and bluetooth). With 1.6 I could chose a contact and then dial directly, or import the phone number (however it was not as great as the old symbian OS where you even could navigate directly to a contact). Is it someone that has any idea of a good app or something that makes this possible (maybe a Symbian simulator. I have also realized that the connection (dB) has decreased with the new OS. I even loos connection on the E4, with this phone (Xperia X10 mini Pro).
When updating the software, do not send anything that destroy the users personal settings. And do not come with any BS that the programming system requires it. Now I will not accept any updates that require a lot of extra job from me to make safety copies and restore my personal info. No more.
I used to have the contact pictures in my phonebook as the pictures that my friends use as their facebook profile picture. This is not now happening and I can't re-set it. I did remove my facebook account briefly from my phone, as I'm experiencing trouble using fb on my phone.
I'm sure there must be a simple way of putting the contact pictures back, but I've tried everything I can think of and nothing seems to work
I've got an X10 - White one.. And I just noticed that my phone number doesn't show in my Phonebook anymore. I didn't have this problem when my phone was new. But eversince I delayed my payment on my postpaid plan and my outgoing calls/sms got blocked by my provider my phone number wouldn't show up anymore. Now that I've paid up and have outgoing service again it's still not showing on my phonebook.So I put in my other simcard which was fully active and it still didn't show my number. Put in a prepaid simcard.. Still the same.. Put in another... Still the same.. Already repaired my phone via SEUS hoping it could fix the problem but it's still there.

Yesterday I upgraded the software on my phone to the latest and after I did that all the applications/settings/themes were vanished and the phonebook is empty too.Is there any way to restore at least the phonebook entries?
I have a bold 9700, software version=6.0 Bundle 2921.I recently downloaded the latest OS update (6 I'm assuming) the day it was released. I went to add a new contact to my phone book yesterday for the first time after I downloaded the update and it does nothing when I click it. I've tried right clicking and adding a new contact, just clicking on the new contact in the phone book. And nothing, if I click it enough it freezes my phone, and when I restart it throws me an exception about the phone book.I've taken out my battery/sim card and still doesn't work. Has to be a bug in the code since its throwing an exception.
I recently tried to edit one of my phonebook contacts and the phone wouldn't let me do it. Every time I went to "edit" nothing would happen. Not the biggest problem ever, however, now my phone won't let me add new contacts. When I go to "add to contacts" nothing happens, and occasionally my phone will freeze and I have to turn it off. I have tried taking the battery out and letting the phone reboot but still nothing.
I don't have more than (probably 100) entries in my BB phonebook. When I try to add a number from a received call to the book, the phone freezes and needs to be rebooted. When I try to add a number manually it freezes and needs a reboot.
