...Did you read my last post?

Not sure how to help you, it works flawlessly for every other person - hence the reason that there aren't 500 threads on this issue. You're the only one to my knowledge that has issues, so you must be doing something different.

Evidently you went with yet another 3rd party contact app, so I really can't help you if that's the route you're going to take.

This last time I didn't I installed Tiad08's FROYO X GINGER and went to sync with GMail my contacts, thats when they all showed up but blank, so I unclicked my account to sync my contacts and imported them through vcf and everything showed up sort of...

I can't help you with builds that aren't even available here, let alone a build which no body knows what is included.

If you want help with that build, you're going to have to look elsewhere. Sorry.

I found and fixed the problem myself... It was starring me in the face all along, blankly!!!

At the very top upper half nothing is filled in for phone numbers and what not... It's all filled out below in different fields:


I tediously went through all the contacts already in GMail "My Contacts" Group, and copied and paste all the phone number in that lightly greyed out area... Then I exported the "My Contacts" Group to a vCard (.vcf) and went into Contacts on Android then clicked menu (Windows Flag Key) then clicked Import From SD and it cured it and was a lot faster than syncing through GMail...

Ever figure out how to get Pic messaging to work on a TP2 on android and boost? Im a noob so any help would be appreciated!
Oh and i cant get my contacts to sync right either.. When i installed android and setup my gmail acct... Only the contact NAMES were sync'd no phone numbers or email addys or anything.. I've tried everything.. (install from csv file on SD card, Tried from SIM card, etc... even managed to mess something up on the winmo side, forcing a hard reset.. but still no luck.. I just found a Yahoo! droid App that is supposed to sync contacts.. so I transferred all my gmail info to my Y! acct.. We'll see if it works!

Nope I haven't bothered with messing around with the MMS Settings on the XDAndroid side of things... I've been too busy playing around with Tiad8's FROYO X GINGER and waiting until he makes a better more stable Sense X build, then I might give it a test drive.


If yahoo doesn't work ya might have to do it manually like I did. Someone over at tiad8's forums mentioned SPB Migration, by the time they mentioned it I was already finished so it was too late for me to try.

Yeah i ended up doing the copy paste thing too. Yahoo didnt work.. Still trying to figure out mms on boost on android.. but like i said, Im a total noob. so i dont wanna mess with too much! Just having a fairly stable/functional version of android on my phone is pretty sweet.. I have had winmo for around 7 yrs.. didnt think i'd like android, but other than the ads, its pretty sweet so far! (although i have a bunch of pic/vids on my sd card and the android gallery kinda sux to view them)

Try howardforums.com for the pic messaging...

[ExpletiveDeleted001]

Yeah, i've looked on there, guess im gonna have to sign up and ask the boost guru..

Yea or study the windows mobile side then go into android network settings and enter what ya see missing there, you see I already posted the MMSC Url, in the very first post in this thread...

I've also thought that maybe just cause it doesn't work on the default android mms that it doesn't mean it wouldn't or might not work in something like Handcent or Go SMS Pro.
