I'm not sure i'm in the right place for this quesiton or not but anyway here goes, i currently have an Evo that i use FB on quite often, once i get into a friends profile is there any place where i can send him/her a private message? I can do this off my pc but i dont see it anywhere as an option on my phone?
thanks
I don't use facebook, but have you tried pushing menu and seeing if it brings up additional options?

I don't think so. Only way i know of is clicking messages in the main menu.
Yes, click messages, not friends to send a message. Or use touch.facebook.com in the browser.

I have my phone getting email pushed to it from Exchange, but the notification that pops up when one arrives gives me the option to dismiss or view the email. Is there any way I can get the option to delete or view instead? When spam arrives, I dont want to view it before deleting it, and neither do I want to go into my messages to find the email and delete it if theres the possibility of deleting it straight away from the notification. Any ideas anyone?
Thanks.

Not that I'm aware of. (and I've looked...)
Agree with the Doc, I've never seen anything to do it.
Thats a shame - delete would be far more useful than dismiss for me, but thanks for looking anyway people, much appreciated!
sorry mate, never seen it before!
try Spb Diary
on live or hotmail from there phone
I haven't been able to get it to work on Gmail either... it will open up the attachment, for example, but I can't figure out how to download it, despite the fact that I have the PIE Attachment Download cab installed...
I know that when I get emails, attachments are not downloaded immediately, in order to save space. You might need to view the message, click on the view attachment link at the bottom of the message, then reconnect in order to send/receive data. This is the way it works on pie, but I am not sure about Live, since I don't use it. It is worth a look-sy, though.

im using.rickywatts vanilla rom, live.com, i sed to be able t do this like a months ago, dont know what happened. i even went back to 6.0 and kavanna, still nothing
Something to check into but you can also, go into your email account on your phone, click on Menu--tools--options--account settings--download size settings--(Then make adjustments) Be sure download attachments is selected and message limit is at whatever setting you choose.
Post what occurs or what worked.

I don't seem to have that option
Doesn't seem to be an option to save SMS and E-Mails. Unless I'm over looking something. I disabled TF3D and just use the original WM interface so you think that's why? When I go to menu no option to save. I thought about making a new folder to move it to, but I can't do that either.
Anyone know?
BTW - I tried to search for this but nothing came up about how to save sms and emails.
Try http://myphone.microsoft.com
you can back up your contact and SMS messages

Oh yeah I forgot I had that. But with a HTC running Windows!!! Don't you think this type of thing should be built in? The easiest and simple things that we need are always missing.
try PIM Backup, works good even for email
Aren't they just in the sent items? Or do you want to back 'm up to your PC automatically?

I want to be able to save a certain emails to my phone when I need to and use it later if I needed to. I'm so use to doing this when I had my BB. I don't want to save my entire email list. Just certain ones that are important that I would need at a later time while I delete the rest.
I don't need to save too many text. But if I do, I just send it to my "Drafts" folder. I don't like how I can't save a MMS pic either. I have to email it to myself in order to save it. Unless somebody knows another method.
It may not be much help, but I can confirm that Flexmail allows you to 'save as' your messages. The WinMo PIM apps are the bare basic essentials. If you want anything fancier, you need to consider third-party software.
Hi all, loving my new Desire!
So, I've sync'd Facebook, Gmail and Flickr with my phone. I thought this was fantastic that it links people in my contacts with their facebook accounts!
BUT, it's made my contacts list stupidly big by adding in every person I've got on facebook, as well as every contact I have on my Gmail account! How do I turn this off? Finding a contact is stupidly hard now.
If I click on People, it only shows the phone contacts I've added, but if I open up a new sms and select to open up my contacts, it shows every name under the sun!
Thanks!
When viewing the complete list of contacts, press the menu button. Then press view, and you can turn on/off the contacts you want to see in your list
Regards
DF
Great the "People" app but doesn't affect "Messages" ...
Yeah, the view thing only affects the People app but your FB contacts will still be searchable via Phone/Messages etc
I just had an idea of a possible workaround by adding all your phone contacts into a group.. then just going into this group when sending a text, etc. but it'll only let you send the text to everyone in the group!
This has to be the most annoying thing about the phone so far. Well, this and the utterly rubbish optical trackball.

why is the trackball rubish?
btw, is it not possible to manually one by one attach phone contacts to fb contacts ?

Errrm, I'm not sure to be honest. The way it works is if it's 100% sure a contact you have is a person on your facebook, it'll make the link between the two. If it's not 100% sure, it'll suggest the link to you and you have to manually agree to link them.
The trackball is just so innacurate. If for example I need to delete an extra letter in a word and using my finger on the screen gets me close, but not exactly where I want I have to use the trackball.. Which sometimes scrolls along too far or not enough.
Plus if you want to actually use it to do anything, you have to go mad with your thumb!

it just needs some getting used to i guess, ... some people complained about the trackball of the N1 at first, but then they got used to it.
regarding your issue, .. why dont you save your important numbers in the SIM, and then clear all the phone numbers in the phone, and then copy from SIM again
I think if I did this, the next time it sync'd it'd add them all back again!
I could give it a try though

choose not to sync again, .. there is an option for that right, .. the facebook/gmail syncing is not a must
In Gmail - how can I choose several emails in one go, to either delete them all or mark them all as read? Its bit frustrating to go throught the mails one by one... Any one knows how to do it?
You press on the tick on the left hand side of the message.
You press the MENU button while in GMail, and you get the option to delete a bunch in one go. I had this problem when I first used the Desire lol.
ok...
Thanks works great when I need to delete!
I still need to do it for those I want to 'mark as read'... there is no tick on the left!
Thanks

Either you are missing the obvious or you have some sort of messed up version of Gmail there's always been a tick on the left to select Emails, right from Android 1.0

I was using a different widget that has all mails alwaus open on the scene. Switched it now to the other u referred to.. works ok. Thanks
Slightly off topic, but related to this one.
Does anyone know how to multiple select email that has sync'd from Exchange? The standard mail app doesn't seem to offer this, or I'm going blind
Thanks
Dae
I actually decided to go back to the HTC mail widget as it gives notification for incoming Google mail... but its bit irritating as you cant choose several emails as in the above mentioned GMAIL app. Hope someone could figure it out!!
This is similar I use at moment:

Im newbie... explains everything.

There's no setup for it because it's push... probably much better for the battery than checking every x amount of minutes. You just get an email pushed to the phone when you get a new one.
That sounds cool... but how can I disable that for night time? When I got the phone there was a setup somewhere (lost it now!) where you can choose peak and non peak time updates - wonder if that can be used for Gmail?
Thanks
just turn the internet off at night time.
add the widget to the home screen and switch it to off when you go to bed.
from the home screen, menu>add to home>widget>settings>mobile data
So there's no way to select multiple/all emails for delete/'mark as read' using the HTC mail app?
I'd like to know this aswell, I havnt found a way either

no, i don't think the HTC Mail application does not give you an option to select many emails at once.
its silly really lol specially in the morning when I have around 12 rubbish emails from overnight

You can select multiple emails for deletion in the exchange mail app. Just select menu>delete and you then get selection boxes next to all your messages
