DWP

Hi DWP, Hi AlCan Thank you. You are most welcome. I am using Google Translate to communicate with you. Ahh, didn't realise that! Please forgive me this might bring trouble. Yes, sometimes Google translate to Chinese is not very good. But usually, I can understand you. Anyway, as in previous post, I ...

You are so way, way far off, and that you are stuck in terminology. ;-) I'm sorry, but I can only Laugh! If you check this thread, you'll see that it was me who first pointed out to you that if you have Linked profiles (using the Android V2.2.2 terminology, just so it's clear and everyone can under...

It seemed that you missed it. DWP has confirmed that it as a bug. Nope! Didn't miss it at all. Actually, DWP only said: it looks DWC has a bug. That's only "looks [like]" - which isn't confirmation in my book. He may investigate the code and find it's not a bug. Chances are, your "lo...

Hi aladdin, When I look at the stock (default) Google Nexus app, it shows 246 Contacts in Christmas 0, just like in my Google email account. Whereas in the DWP it shows 245 Contacts in Christmas 0. Therefore, there is a bug in DWP app. Ok, I see you have your own very strong view about this. You see...

Thank you dwp and AlCan to both of you, trying to help sort my problem out. You're welcome. Glad it's (almost) sorted. I guess you still have a pair of joined contacts hiding in your Christmas 0 group. But as I say, I don't know of an easy way to find them. In fact, when I first encountered Android...

Hi aladdin, Do you have any currently linked (or joined) contacts? If so, the reported number of contacts will be less. As far as I know, DWP doesn't link contacts by itself. You have to link them yourself, and it's an Android function, not a DWP one. In other words, you can also link contacts using...

Hi ralvy, Do you mean it doesn't add to your Calendar? I thought it didn't work either, but I think there is another step you need to take. Can you add a Birthday to a Contact okay? Does it then show in the DWP Contact Viewer, when you swipe sideways (Left) to the (Right hand) end, or pick the "...

Hi Dwp, On that same question... On my phone provider's network, sending Contact Data using attached vCards is extremely slow. Sometimes it takes hours for messages to arrive. Obviously, they get very low priority. Would it also be possible to provide an option to send the (selected) Contact Data by...

Hi Dwp, I have noticed that using the browser on my phone, sometimes Google Search results have a "Phone Call" button displayed for some companies. This is sometimes a very useful feature. If I press this Call button, I get an option box "Complete action using", and can choose &q...

Hi dwp, Is the Dialling confirmation pop-up part of DWP? If it is, can I request some changes, please? Could rearrange the content? I don't use Contact photos, so can you provide a setting to turn off the image icon (and then use the extra space to make the popup more readable)? Actually, it might b...

Hi DWP, I am trying to better organise my contacts. Using the Stock Android contact system, it is possible to Hide Groups of contacts. DWP obeys this protocol very nicely as far as Contacts are concerned. It doesn't list or find the hidden Contacts in the normal Contacts list. [But if I Search for t...

P.S. Yes, a new View Contact sub-screen has been added to DWP. You may be seeing this instead of what you are used to. I don't know your phone or how it used to work, but to Edit a contact, Long Tap on it. But if you have set the Default Contact Viewer to the DWP one, you will always get that now, u...

Hi jazzylm, I'm just a fellow user of DWP, not an expert on every feature, but I'll help where I can. Yes, there is an option to set a different ring for every member in a Group - though I don't know about a VIP option. Devin / DWP will be able to answer that. I'm also not sure how to make it ring a...

Hi Dwp, Which Android app would you recommend for doing screenshots? Rgds, A P.S. No, from my understanding, when the Search Results first appear, the top half of the screen on his phone shows the Second (bottom) half of his Call History list. The rest of his screen is normal. So, at the start, it i...

Hi Dwp, Today my employers advised me that they have changed my mobile calling plan. On the plus side (I think many people would agree), I now have 1.5GB of Mobile Data per month! (Up from 50 MB...) On the challenging side, I am now restricted to 400 "minutes" of outgoing calls per month. ...

Hi dwp, I think what he means is that on his phone, when he does a Search (not sure where from), the Results List is positioned about half a screen higher than it should be. That means that the first few results on the list (maybe four or so) can't be seen, until he scrolls his list back down. Sound...

P.S. I noticed something else about the bug, above. When there is no Search data entered, it just displays the whole Contact list, but the middle (second) line of each Contact is always blank. Then, as I type in search terms, the found (search result) data gets displayed in the second line, with the...

Hi Dwp, Looking at the description in http://forum.dw-p.net/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=2618 , I found a different bug in my Search Tab. When I search using the Search Tab, the results are displayed incorrectly on my phone. I get the Contact name on the first line as normal. On the second line, in Bold ...

Hi kirizan, I'm a DWP user. I had the same problem, but much worse! My contacts looked like this: \Fred\\Flintstone and other weird combinations. You couldn't sort them or do anything very useful. But I don't think DWP will be able to fix these problems. They are too specific to your situation. Howe...

P.S> Donns, Sorry, didn't answer your first question properly. Yes: Green arrow (Up to Right) means Outgoing - from your phone UP to cell tower? Blue arrow (Down to Left) means Incoming (answered) - from Cell tower DOWN to your Phone? Bent Red arrow (Down to Left then Bounced back Up) means Incoming...

Hi Donns, I have a question for you about your Red Circle with a line through it. Did this just appear without you setting up any call filtering at all (that you know of?) The same thing happened to me when I first installed the new version with that feature. I don't know why. It happened to one Con...

Hi, Not sure what DWP means by brush again, but, even if it's a last resort, you should be able to Restore your phone back to "Like New" by doing a Factory Reset. That will reload all the standard app's and delete all the installed apps and all your contacts, etc. SD card and SIM data shou...

Hi Dwp, Thanks for your reply. I looked at the other post, but it's not quite clear. Anyway, I figured it out, so here is a bit more explanation for DWP Lovers. Before you install DWC / DWP (or any other replacement Contact Manager / Phone Dialler), your phone will use the Stock Dialler and Contacts...

Here's the list: 1. Add desktop widgets - display contacts in the contact group 2. Move "Incoming call view settings" to "Detailed view settings", "Display when dialing" options at the same time add exhaled 3. "Contact details" view supports theme settings 4. ...

Hello All, V2.2.3 is out. It adds compatibility with Android 4.1.1. Version 2.2.2 is also released. I'm not sure whether 2. and .3 came together or separately. V2.2.2 adds many (7) new features. If I get time, I'll list them here. Includes various unlisted bug fixes. DWP is just continuing to get be...

Hello AI About Contact Name: Perhaps you are editing a merged contact. Yes, spot on. Thanks. No idea how it got duplicated, but that is what was happening. Many thanks. Viewer for Contact: This is because you are now the DWC contact Viewer set as the default. You can in the Application Manager, cle...

Hi DWP, Seems another cache update problem has appeared since (or with) V2.2.0. Now, when I edit a misspelled Contact (Family) Name, the name doesn't update in the Contacts tab, or in the Contact detail view. It's correct in the Edit Contact view, but not in the Contact detail view. Stranger still, ...

Hi again All, Not sure exactly what happened but seems there were issues with V2.2.0 and Galaxy Nexus, and V2.2.1 came out immediately after. Apart from those fixes, V2.2.1 includes one new feature: 1. Added the ability to set (adjust) the minimum list line height - see Settings | Theme settings | M...

Hi dwp,

V2.2.0 - the Organisation list fixed line height is great.

Thanks!

Al

Hi palaran,

You can still get to Settings via the Android Menu button. (In the Contacts tab, it's under (+) More...)

In other Tabs, it's usually on the first pop-up menu.

Cheers,
A

Hi Guys, In case you haven't updated yet, V2.2.0 is available. It adds: 1. A new Contact Detail Viewer page - which is an excellent addition, as it continues whatever theme (colours, font sizes etc) you have set in DWP, rather than switching back to the stock Android theme, when you look up a contac...

Hi dwp! I was to add a contact to the viewer. Sorry, I'm not sure where you mean... sorry. I would like to avoid long press the menu is too long. Yes, it is a bit long, especially as there are already two pages! But, as it is an option that probably won't get that much use, could it go at the bottom...

Hi dwp, I would like this you can enter in the edit contacts. I'm not sure I understand what you mean, sorry. Are you saying you like my request, or that you'd like me to do this using Edit contacts, or Both? Yes, I know it can be done manually, but then, you need to be sure you get the Organisation...

Hi dwp, Under the Organization tab, long tap on an Organization brings up a menu which includes: "Add contacts to organization" but there is no "Add Organization to Contact" option in the Contacts list, long tap menu. Is it possible to add this, please? Also, under my settings, I...

I'd like to be able to edit all contact information on my cellphone. May not be possible - sorry, not easily possible. It there is no way to tell google to synt multiple organisations right, i only need once the possibillity to search for all those contacts having more than one company and delete t...

Hi dwp, Not sure yet. Just installed latest release 2.1.5, don't really want to go back to the Test version. The problem only happened when making Outgoing calls. When I ended the call, the body of the screen stayed black. I couldn't get it to go back to normal. No icons visible, etc. Just the statu...

Hi dwp, Please forgive my bad English. No problem! Your English is a million times better than my Chinese. Do you mean it needs to be improved? No. It's okay as it is. It's just a matter of personal taste or preference. If you really want to change the icon, you might like to try adding a third &quo...

Hi poseidon, Do you want to do this search on a frequent basis? If you only need to do it occasionally, as you already have your contacts on Google, try exporting them to .CSV, then open the file with Excel and find them that way. I think Google puts multiple Organisations in one cell, so you may ne...

Hi dwp, Yes, that's very much like what I mean. The back outline could possibly be a little higher, but it doesn't need to be. Still in black and white though, like the existing icons? Don't you think that looks much simpler and easier to see? Bearing in mind that many of us (me included) still have...

P.S. I notice the new Tab icons - but I have to say, I don't like the new Groups icon. It breaks the tradition of simple, easy to see icons. It's too complex, too hard to make out. To me, it looks more like a badly made hamburger than a Groups symbol. I much prefer the existing icon. If I was to sug...

Hi dwp, Tried it, thanks. Yes, the two bugs are fixed, though I couldn't set the different Tab views to get rid of the contact icons. Not sure if I missed the setting. But my Saved settings still worked so things looked almost correct, except that a lot of the contact details colours were wrong. Any...

Hi, AlCan Many thanks for your Demo, through which I reproduce the failure.I think I have fixed this bug. Great! Are you willing to help me test? Sure! Please send me the link. Also, you could try loading my Settings file, http://forum.dw-p.net/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=2524#p4006 and see if it's oka...

Hi Camel, sorry, but - if i should find the issue ... pff is not easy to find ... Don't worry, I found it for you. I'm sorry, but please can you setup your wanted changes in settings, and then look if it works. Done. The faults reappear. because some users had this in past, that there are any strang...

Hi there, How about this? On the "Good" phone, in DWC Settings | Backup & Restore, Backup all your settings. Then copy the "Good" Backup file to the "Bad" phone (you may want to make a backup of that one first - name it something decisive). Anyway, then Restore the ...

Hi, You can start with the Dialler up, by setting "Tab settings | Default tab" to Phone, and "Phone settings | Start dialer without dialer pad" set Off. Not sure if you can make it default to the keyboard tho. However, I use DWC ALL THE TIME. I use it mostly in the car, in a phon...

Hi Camel, OK. HERE IT IS - HOW TO REPLICATE "Prompt before Exit" and "No Android Menu button function" BUGS: This may also demonstrate that "Restore default settings" does not actually work properly. It seems to be the case on my phone. I suggest you start with all Defa...

Hi Camel, Ok. I did as you asked. I Reset my DWC to Default settings. I did a preliminary new setup - I didn't go through and change everything, just many of my most important settings. Then I tested the two bugs. BOTH bugs are back already. The symptoms are exactly as before. (I also still get the ...

Hi Camel,

Too bad. That's a bit of work. I have changed a lot of settings...

Do you have a list of all the Settings that you could send me, please? Then I can just fill in the data, rather than have to write up the whole list.

Or maybe I'll take a look at the XML file.

Rgds,
A

Further thought: Maybe it's time the whole PHONE Tab was reworked? I mean, if you are viewing the Calls History lists and filtering them according to predefined buttons, why do you need the dialler visible at all? I don't know about others, but if I'm reviewing my calls list and I find the contact, ...

Hi Camel, i think, it will be good enough, if we put it into the menu this mean, in tab "phone" or "history" -> press "menu key" -> there can be "history filter" -> then show the items: "missed calls/incomming calls/ outgoing calls / blocked calls" a...
