I would look into using google to arrange and save your contacts.

all my stuff is on my google account too, I have a google number and I keep it more up to date then my phone, but how would you sync it to the phone?

I figured it out, I had tried it once and was in a rush and couldn't get it to work and never tried again, but just got it to work, thanks for the info that reminded me about it

Syncing with a google would be real handy but every time I wanted to take the plunge, I thought it was a long drawn process and involved a bit of risk, so never did it.

I finally ended up having to do it in order to get my contacts on my phone when I installed Android on the Diamond. It was a bit of a pain on the WM side, I had a few issues, especially with the "Domain" field but I finally got it done. Once on the Android side it was seamless, of course.

Syncing to your google account is simple. You just set up activesync with your google information and make sure you check off contacts. Ive used it since day 1 and its always worked great. Hotmail contact syncing is a bit nicer though, because it will actually save all your fav people and put them back when you resync.

how do you disable auto rotate on this rom?

Sorry OMJ, but I had to roll back to previous ROM, with Cookie's 1.6.0. Besides losing all voice command capability, I ended up in lock screen hell with a white box that covered the bottom half of the screen, and an unlock button on the bottom that alternated with an unlock button in the top task bar. One would trigger the other and it would never truly unlock. It's a shame. I really liked having all the info visible on the lock screen with just a little slider on the bottom. Please see what you can do with 23557. I've gotta have voice command because cell phone use without a handsfree device is now illegal in Hawaii. (BTW, I got the new Jawbone Icon and it reads the calling number too me, so I can screen calls without looking!)

Once again, Ken, I certainly appreciate all your hard work. It has made my TD very pleasant to use while we all breathlessly wait for the EVO.

Hey Tom ... I've been running a 21895 rom that I cooked in Ken's kitchen, and it's flawless. I prefer to install Co0kie 1.71 via cab, rather than cook it in. You should give it a try ...

ps -- it's illegal here in California, as well.

Hi wmdunn... I love Cookie's mods, but the lockscreen that he added between 1.6 and 1.7 seems to be a problem with mine.
