Best Contacts Program?

mwfielder · #1 (**permalink**) 01-09-2009, 02:18 AM

I really like the SPB contacts portion of Mobile Shell, but I am not using it with TF3D. I don't like the OEM Contacts program--its cumbersome to me. I don't like Burt's iContacts b/c once you pull up the contact (after a bunch of scrolling) you can't tell what is the work, home, mobile, work2, etc... number easily.

Are there any programs like SPB Contacts that anyone knows of? Any others people like? (I don't use many pics, so PhotoContacts aren't really good for me)

You don't need all the photos to use a program like Photo Contacts Pro. People without photos will just have a default contact pic, and the larger buttons (photo or not) makes it easier to find a contact and dial them. The new Photo Contacts Pro works with TF3d (although I don't use TF3d so I can't really comment on how well it works).

I don't have many photo contact either and I use this Inesoft Phone 4. It is not free but it is well worth it. My favorite feature is how you can view sms messages inside your call history!

After much playing around, I kept Mobile Shell. The TP has plenty of memory to run both it and TF3D. Mobile Shell is much more functional than TF3D (at least for me), I can easily skin it anyway I want, and TF3D is still there for the eye candy if I want to show off the VGA capabilities if my TP.

My vote is for Pocket CM. It's also a threaded SMS app

I use PocketCM with Diamond VGA skin... it is great.. of course that it does crash alot on Touch Pro/Diamond... remember you get what you pay for right.

iContact Burt Edition is pretty nice.

Thanks for all the comments. I ended up installing Mobile Shell and turning off all the screen saving stuff. Kinda bloated for just the contacts, but I like it/familiar with it, I know it works, and I already own it. Trying to figure out how to map it all to where i want it. Thanks for all the input.
