@Dexter: I answered your request. Google folders are handled as "Group":

Zitat:

A filter-option by groups is basicly not a bad idea. But i have already a contact-account filter implemented and now a second split into groups ? Sounds complicated, even for the GUI. I'll wait a littlebit to see if there comes more requests in this topic

@xistense: I'll take a look at this

@multicalguy: 1b) For filetransfer its technically not possible (MPE uses old ANSI APIs for fileaccess on PC), for "Control phone" its also technically not possible but it should work in the Textinput-Feature

2b) Works already, just use Drag&Drop

3) sorry, i don't think this is needed. MyPhoneExplorer shows all data of the phone as fresh as possible, also in other parts

@JohnD: If i do not misunderstood you then you should find a checkbox called "Never ask" on the bottom of this warning

@EricE: Many thanks for your donation. But i'm afraid a realtimesync will be not possible. I tried this already earlier

@clawnet: Sortoptions for tasks will come

@sunnyape: How many characters you would need for your notes ?

@zentech: Categories for notes and tasks are planned but i don't know if it will come already in the next version

@cazelles: Which preview window ?

@bbstrikesagain: Moving data from one account to another: Yes, maybe a good feature. The appslist can be exported already into excel (Extras-Current list...)

@nick: This is already possible if you did install the Outlook-Addin of MPE

You say if you add the Outlook Addin you can dial the number directly. However all I can do with the addin is initiate the Syncs. Have I missed a part of the functionality?

Rightclick a Outlook-Contact and select "Call" or "Write message" in the contextmenu

Would be nice for telephone numbers to handle alpha characters. I have Outlook phone numbers with extensions entered as (248) 123-4567 x8910 - these still cause MPE to put a + in front & treat the number as a country code (Seychelles!).

If the Tasks or Notes are very long on the source computer, the one synced to the phone is shortened.

My Outlook Tasks sometimes have more than 7000 characters.
Well, it's the Task Description field that have 7000 characters.
The Task title is usually less than 40 character.
(I use Tasks as ToDo lists, as most people do).

To be able to reverse the order of tasks in the phone window - most recent ones on top.

Do you mean the current behaviour is to display on top the task that will be important in 4 months, and you need to go over all tasks to find the task that happens today ?
There is probably an option somewhere to fix this.

I guess for the most people the order is right. It's just that I keep some old, uncompleted tasks merely for reference, and they always are on the top of the list, so J have to scroll down to look for the current ones.

On my phone, Tasks are in white letters on a black background. Can this be reversed?

I am using SE Xperia Arc.

Before I had updated to Android 2.3.4, I found that I was able to use Phone Keypad function with mouse and keyboard inputs from my PC. And I found it so useful! After the update, all the inputs do not work anymore, only the display works.

Is there any easy fix for this??

I do like to have that convenience back as I do a deskbound job.

Thank you so much in advance.

I noticed small bug (or maybe unimplemented feature) when receiving SMS if you have "ICE numbers" in your address book.

ICE numbers is a way for paramedics, police men etc to quickly get in touch with your relatives if they for instance find you unconscious and needs to get in touch with your friends/family.

Typically you have your wife "Jane Doe" with phone number 12345678 saved in your address book. Its difficult for a paramedic to guess who your wife is in your phone book if you have 150 contacts saved.

The convention here is to save an extra entry in your phone book named "ICE1 - Wife", "ICE2 - daughter", "ICE3-Boss" etc, but with the same number as the person to call.

A problem here is obviously if you receive a call or an SMS. How should the phone know whether to show "Jane Doe" or "ICE1-Wife" in the messaging application? (Both those entries have the same number) The trick is to add an asterisk '*' at the end of each ICE number. So in my case:

Jane Doe: 12345678
ICE1-Wife: 12345678*

The phone then ignores numbers ending with an asterisk when doing name lookup.

But for MyPhoneExplorer, all SMS from my wife are displayed with "ICE1-Wife" instead of "Jane Doe".

My suggestion is that you ignore names ending with asterisk ('*') when you do name lookup for numbers in SMS, call history etc.

I hope you think this is a nice feature and would like to add it yo the great product MyPhoneExplorer.

ICE number is well known by rescue workers in several countries in Europe, see ICE number: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_case_of_emergency

Thanks in advance! Smile

MPE sync two of the three addresses (home and bussines), what about the third one (other)? It's supported by both Outlook and Android.

How about an option to only sync contacts with phone numbers? It gets really messy as I use my email and more contacts get saved :/

Hello !

1 : On MPE Tasks, it would be awesome to have a fast scroll slider on the right side (see the red arrow on the picture below).

2 : When I'm on MPE Tasks, I edit a Task, then I click on "Ok" or on "Cancel", the list view is automatically reset to the first Task (not the Task I was editing).
I would prefer to be sent back where I came from (to avoid scrolling among dozens of tasks).

3 : On MPE Tasks, when we click on a date (to change it) would it be possible to display the day (monday, tuesday, etc...) while choosing the date ? (scrolling from numbers 20 to 28 doesn't indicate if it's a monday or a sunday, so I need a real calendar each time I enter an appointment)

4 : If I uninstall MPE on the phone, then install a new version, do you think my Notes and Tasks will still be there on the phone ?

Thanks a lot for your work !

I haven't found a bugtracker or a forum post/category for bugs, so I hope it's fine posting it here.

When using with an Android phone and using multiple sources for contacts (like Phone/Google/WhatsApp) on 1.8.2 you can select a source independently or select 'All'.

If you filter (using upper right box) something, this works for all selected contact sources.

However, if you are switching between the contact sources it works only for the specific contact source (i.e. Phone or WhatsApp). If you reselect 'All' then the previous screen remains shown.
