Finger Flick Contact Manager (PCM.17)... *UPDATE 12/29*

[BustedNuts1]

When I use the google maps application to find a business, it allows you to store the contact to your phone. However, it does not show up in the finger flick contact manager. I know that it does store it because when I add a speed dial through my today screen (the Kaiser one), it is listed in the ppc 6800's contacts, but it is not listed in the Finger Flick. Is there a way to change this or update the Contact Manager?

If I reinstall the finger flick, the new contact shows up.

ContactsManager won't pick up updates made outside itself once started. I believe the author is aware.

Reseting your phone (i.e. /w the stylus reset switch) will close it down and let it be updated. Alternately you can run it in non-fullscreen mode and use the X button to close it down and restart it.

On the updated cab it won't let you pull up if you open it with menu & select contacts, gives you not signed with trusted cert.... error. Can it be fixed/updated like the cab??

it should not be doing that... double check that registry edit and make sure it has quotations around it...

HKLM\software\microsoft\shell\rai\mscontacts\1


it does NOT do this on my phone i have no problems...

I reinstalled it & it works now. but i did notice that the contacts now list last name then first name. I thought on the last version it read first name then last name. am i wrong or did that change & is there a way to make it list first name then last name??

ya notice how much faster it loads that was the reason he did this... you can change it back by editting the lines to looks like this in the settings.ini

contact_sort_expression=%firstname %lastname
# font used for first line in contact list
contact_font_header=12,bold
contact_header_formatting= %title %firstname %lastname
# font used for second line in conatct list
contact_font_secondline=10

you just have to remove the # sign

Is anyone else having trouble assiging favorites? Everytime I try to make someone a favorite I receive an error and COntactManager has to quit.

When I restart CM tough, that person was saved as a favorite...

The only bad thing is you have to soft reset for the contacts to be polled from your Outlook if you ad new ones. As you can imagin, now I'm adding everyones pic!
