Can't find the answer here.
I have the Android Atrix. My wife has the Atrix 2. Both have DWC version 2.1.4.
On my phone, when doing a search, when I type in text, DWC displays all contact names containing the letters I type. Just below the search bar is a "Search Anything" button that expands the search to Notes, etc.
On my wife's phone, when doing a search, when I type in text, DWC displays all contact names containing the letters I type. But she never gets the "Search Anything" button so she can search notes. One qualification - on infrequent occasions, when she type in a contact name it seems to automatically 'search anything.'
Is it possible to set up DWC to ALWAYS search anything?
How do I get the "Search Anything" button to appear on my wife's phone?

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 "Good" settings file to the "Bad" phone. See if they are then the same.

Otherwise, I would say it's a function of the different Contacts on each phone.

Regards,
A

Hello
The buttons appear only in the search results is empty.
If you need to search all the fields, you can use the Search button in the toolbox.
