Handcent "quick action" icon - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

This icon is located to the left of the reply window in the conversations screen.
Most of the items allow you to add something to the conversation; picutres, audio, smiley, a slideshow, a video, etc.
There's one called "contact", which brings up your contacts list and lets you select one or more. What i'm unclear about is what exactly is being attached to the message? When I select a contact, and click menu, "end select", i'm return back to the message entry screen. So what does this quick action do?

Multiple Contact Lists

Is there a way to setup multiple contacts lists? I would like to have 1 list for friends and a separate list for business rather than having a single list of all of my contacts.
Thanks in advance.
Edit your contacts and give them a category. Edit them by scrolling to the bottom and press "Others" (translated from my Chinese version, so look for something similar). By default there's Personal, Work, Holiday, etc., and you can define more yourself.
Once you have contacts with categories, you can open the menu (right button) in contacts, and choose "Filter".
Thanks. That works. Is there a way to set a default filter? The filter always goes away when I leave my contacts page and return.
I have no idea about how to make the filter stick... I doubt it's recorded in the registry at all.
It might work if you keep the Contacts running... i.e. by switching tasks, or by adding it to the registry so that it is not closed when you press "X".

Can the following TF3D mods be done?

1: Turn off the animated weather on the home screen. I don't want any wallpaper
2: Rename the favorites tab to Contacts, and remove the whole favorites screen. when I go to that tab, I want to see the screen you get if you hit the "all contacts" button in the lower left corner.
3: remove the "Add push internet page" links on the internet tab
4: remove the mail preview on the mail tab. when i go to that tab, I want to see my inbox as if I clicked the inbox link in the lower left corner
5: get the tasks on the home screen
It looks like you would need to modify the tabs to make this happen, is that possible? All the searching I have done only show ways to change the pictres or colors, not to actually get at the coding that drives the functionality of the tab. Some guy coded a calendar tab for an older verison of TouchFlo but never says how he actually did it or what langauge/IDE he used, so it looks like it is possible.
Also, is there a definitive list of all the "hidden" tabs that you can turn on (like Sound Settings, CommManager, etc)

Change where a widget links to in MaxSense for TP2?

Hello, I was just wondering if there is a way to change where a widget links to in MaxSense Roms? I am using the Energy Rom with MaxSense. The sense messaging client is very glitchy, and I don't want to use it. So, is there any way to get the little text message notification widget on the home screen to open my phone's main messaging client? I believe it's that tmail.exe client.
I've attached an image with the widget I am refering to. When I click it, it opens the sense messaging tab, instead, I want it to open tmail.exe
Don't mind the glitchiness in the image, it's a screen shot I took before of how the messaging client was glitching my display, and didn't feel like taking a new screen shot.
I found the solution to this problem, I'll post it in case anyone else has this problem with the screen glitching when the sense messaging client is used in landscape.
On the main home screen (The middle of the 3 home screens, the default home screen) click the settings arrow in the bottom right corner, and select "Program Link Settings" then, scroll down to "Messaging" and when the list of programs pops up, select the program titled "Messaging" then, check the "Program Link Settings" tab again. Make sure the program link points to \Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Internet\Messaging.lnk which will make all SMS Widgets point to the default T-Mobile Rhodium messaging client, Tmail.exe

Calender add issues

I'm trying to add a calendar using a link to my SGN4, and my google account. I have managed to do this on my laptop with thunderbird and lightning, but I can't find any info on how to do this with the phone.
I've been told to:
1. Logged into the website and went to "My Stuff" and select "Subscribe to Calendar".
2. Highlighted the link it gave me and copied it (ctrl-C).
3. Went to calendar.google.com, and on the left side clicked the down arrow with the box around it to the right of "Other calendars".
4. Selected "Add by URL" and pasted the copied link into the box and clicked "Add Calendar".
5. You should see the calendar show up under "Other calendars" now. You can edit it's appearance (color, name, etc.) by clicking the down arrow to the right of the new calendar which shows up when you mouse over it.
6. With your phone, go to your Calendar app and go to "Manage calandars". For my S6, this is under "More" in the top right corner.
7. Slide the slider to "On" next to the Webhost calendar and it should show up.
When I get to step 4, my google account does not give me the option to "add calendar by url", or at least I can't see it. My link is this, well similar:
https://www.x.org/iCalendar.aspx?xxxxxxxxxxxx
I replaced my personal info with xs. but the rest is accurate.
Any help is appreciated, as this seems like a task that should take about 5min, and it's taking forever
TIA

Stock calender app that came with phone
No one can help me with this at all? My phone recently updated to 6.0.1, and I still can't add my calender, or sync all of them to the phone.

Did you try the Google Calendar app on the Play Store? That's what I use and have no problem at all.
That's the calender app I have iirc.

Can't attach to a text message

5x
7.1.1
In Android Messages, there is no way to attach a file (photo, etc). Clicking on the + sign next to the message opens up stickers, without any other attachment option. The hamburger menu doesn't have any options.
If I trigger an SMS from any photo app, Messages shows the photo correctly. I just can't add a photo from within Messages.
All permissions are set for the app.
For reference, my text box looks like this:
[+] [ Type an SMS message] [smiley] [>SMS]
Anyone else have this problem?

It is cumbersome, but here's what you do L. :
1) Tap the + button. You should now see five icons just above your navigation bar. They represent in this order, : Stickers, Camera, Recent Photos, Microphone, and Location.
2) Press the third button which looks like miniature mountains. On the left, you should now see a large square with a centered mountain logo then your recent photos.
3) Tap the large square on the left that has the mountain logo and you should now see a file browser list.

Thank you for helping out this blind old man! I completely missed the icon bar. Forest for the trees, and all.
