Frequent calls in the phone application.

The numbers you called most often were put in this category, and you couldn't clear the list if you want. Say you have a 1-900 phone sex issue you wanted to hide from your GF or wife, you'd need to wipe your whole phone to get rid of it
Now you can just clear it - just like a web browsers history.

Oh, of course, "frequent calls" confused me a bit, I don't know why.
Awesome. My list has a bunch of obnoxious clients on it, so that'll be nice.
Does anyone know if Facebook contact integration is actually fixed? High res profile photos are a go, yes?

I am not sure if it is, but it is Facebook's responsibility to get sync working. Google provided a way for them to make it happen, but they need to make it work with their application.

Hi,
Yeah i can see the "To" but if i click it or in the box it does nothing. Surely i dont have to start to type the name in and then click it?
Thats exatually what you do
select the box and start type the name of your contact
What else would you do ?

Every phone ive ever had including the galaxy s2 when you clicked in the to box it would bring uo your contact list letting you choose the contact.
Matt
You can also go to the contact list and choose to text
Go to Phone Icon > People tab, then click on the left box where their photo is.
Then on the right side of the phone number is an icon i can't describe, but that lets you text.
yeah many phones do that
But i would always search in the list anyway so for me this is a step less

[Q] Hiding Texts and Contacts?

Hi there,
This is a bit of a random question but is there a way to hide a certain person from appearing in your contacts and their text messages from showing? I don't want to delete them or their texts, just to hide them?
Thanks

I don't know about contacts but the Sense roms I used would allow you to move single texts or entire conversations to the secure box, hiding them until you enter your password. The aokp rom I use now has no such option.

As the previous person said. Theres an app in the play store called secret box and miui has it as a built in function. Havent played with the miui one too much. Not sure if it hides it or blocks it.
I hope my gf doesn't read this
Edit: the app hides the contacts, pics, calls, messeges. But play around with it cause I think it will still show at the moment it comes in. You don't need any surprises. Oh, and I'm talking about sms messages.

More to say have I. My drinking buddy rom is vu (i know its old but works n is sexy) which is sense. If that's you this works. Never seen the app.
Put the contact you ent to hide on you sin. Open people, click menu, click view deselect sin.
Wit that n the secure sms inbox, its hides. Will show on Sense lockscreen except weather or pics. But u may want hide some them too.
If u not sense, try app. Let us know. Some US secrets too.
If you can read this, I's been a drinkin

There is SPC (Super Private Conversation) on Market for your purpose
Great, cheers for that guys!
I use PSB, the cool thing about is that it has no icon under programs, you go to your dialer type 1234 and hit dial and it opens up.

Select all please.

Yeah I kinda like to see that in the gmail app. Just saying.
I love the 90s. Good times.
Whhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaattttttttt......
Are you talking about?

In the gmail app, you can only select items individually. There is no select all. So if you have fifteen emails in your inbox and want to delete them all, you need to select each one individually then you can mass delete them.
Doesn't bother me as I rarely have a whole bunch at once to delete. But it would save time.
you cant select all in gmail for android

I also HATE (I know it's a strong word, but I'm goin there) the fact that I have to go to the web page to permanently delete my email!
Unless there is a way to do it from the app, and I haven't figured it out...
Your mileage may vary...

To set up notifications for new Tweets from selected accounts:
Go to the account's profile on the app.
Tap the gear icon located next to the follow button.
From the pop up menu that appears, select Turn on notifications. You can only adjust notifications for accounts that you follow.

iOS has it for sure, I use that as my text tone on iOS. On topic, try what's already been suggested about the settings in the app OP. I haven't used Android in a while, so I can't be too sure if that's the only thing you need to change.

I would search the store for an app that has the functionality you are looking for.

Automatically hide incoming SMS from certain contact?

I know Vault app use to let you hide incoming SMS from certain contacts, that is before Google Store changed its policy. It seems Vault no longer offer an older version for download. Any 3rd party apps that still let you do this? Thanks!
You can try Go SMS pro. I've used it for a couple of years now.
Textra has cool customizations for that, nice n clean

Block on stock app works great. They end up in the blocked folder without notifications.
I used to use the private folder in Go Sms Pro... But i use MOOD sms... It takes a little to set up but theres ZERO add spam and functions and looks way smoother.
Stock messaging app does this, no need for a 3rd party app. Open the message thread from the contact in question and hit the 3-dot menu, then custom notifications. You can turn off notifications completely, mute sounds, hide the content, etc. I have my kid's dad muted like this lol.

Private/hidden messages are very much different from blocking. The goal isnt to mute notifications. Its to seperate your main txt threads from your private txt threads. Stock doesn't allow this, not even when using Samsung's own secure folder app. So a 3rd party Apps like go sms... Mood... Textra... Etc are still needed for this level of functionality.
Ive always used Handcent Messaging. Has a private messaging feature that keeps certain contacts out of your main messaging window.
This thread just made my day... "Tryna" get back to work now...? BTW, Textra is a great app but doesn't support private folders, not that I've been able to find anyway...
I have used gosms and it was pretty nice. Dont know if thats still available but it a search.
I need help as after update ui 2.0 i am unable to turn off banner notifications
