Hit that dial (face)

- Hey delta,
Great work thus far!
I think the application would be great if it functioned similar to the way HTC set up their face speed dialing on previous phones. Let us bypass the BB Picture ID in our contact lists (which are always small) and let us use our own in your application for each contact. Even my biggest picture ID doesn't fill the gray box around them, it'd be cool if it was just pictures.
Here's a pic I took of my previous setup:

I'll take this request on board, *but* my UI skills are far from useful at this point so I don't know that I'd be able to fair any better in producing pictures, I haven't been able to successfully rotate images 90 degrees even, so crop and/or similar that occurs with the address book is beyond my skill set at this point in time.01-06-09 11:24 AMLike 0 -
- I was hoping to avoid duplicating features with the system address book, but to be honest it's slow, limiting and same old same old.

Why not just just start the screen off with 12 blank boxes, enabling the user to click on a blank box and select the desired contact from the contact list and attach the appropriate sized image they want. This will let us prioritize contacts much easier, it saves you time coding and IMO increases usability.
Perhaps in the 'Options' (accessible from the BB key) let us add in additional rows of contacts and have it scroll the same way you do right now.
I don't mean to critique the application in it's current form, it works great and you've done an excellent job. But I just think allowing Storm users to press a hot key and have 12 of their most frequent contacts appear in picture form is a better idea than having to worry about dealing with existing BB contact pictures and contact lists.01-06-09 12:45 PMLike 0 - Man that is a great idea!! I love it just shows the pic and you click what you want. Keep toying and I will update your app as it grows. Also u may want to create some kind of way so u can select different or multiple contacts for texting

I enter my customers name in my address book, then I could click on his or her face to schedual an appointment with him or her. I know its a little off the path of your program, just something that would be usefull for me. Dont get me wrong I am not complaining your app is awsome as is and very needed...01-06-09 02:17 PMLike 0

- Well contact "touches", not clicks could be used to select contacts, a toggle kind of thing, and then click on the last contact maybe, but this might get annoying so it might need some double touch menu item to trigger it.01-06-09 03:46 PMLike 0
- Ok....I am a little confused. Downloaded app and all I get is icons and no options. I have read "most" of this quickly so I apologize if I have missed something.
Here are some ?'s:
I saw a screen capture that showed some "non-characted" icons, like mail icon, phone icon etc. All I see is a black "people" icons from my address list, from A-Z.
I see the weighing option after I hit a contact, but if I make them weigh more, nothing happens.
Can someone help me out?01-06-09 03:58 PMLike 0 -

- hey all, just got back to crackberry after the holiday break. skimmed thru this thread and the app seems awesome.
can i get a screengrab from someone?01-06-09 08:47 PMLike 0 - The only reason for this, would if you stuck phone numbers under the fax section or something like that, there is 6 phone number sections that get imported, try refreshing the address book manually.01-06-09 08:54 PMLike 0
