Hello, I'm looking for a way to display in the contact view the "main" (hauptnummer) phone number of a contact.
In Androïd, such a qualifier can be set on a phone number for a contact that has more than one nr.
Therefore, this number will not show in any of the columns of the contact view (mainly, the "mobile" column).
Would it be possible to add more choice in the contextual menu of the header ?

I also miss very much the "main" (hauptnummer) in the contact view. Often I get a number. Then I type it in the search box. MyPhoneExplorer cannot find or display this number though it is in my contacts but it is a main number (Hauptnummer).

Better management of daylight saving time in the call log
===
I've noticed that right after the DST turns to summer time, call log entries are duplicated with a one hour difference.
For instance, I'm in France and during part of the year (roughly, end of March to end of October), we are on UTC+1 while the rest of the year, we are on winter time, i.e. UTC+2.

What I notice is that the same phone call, whether outgoing or incoming, whether missed or not, has two entries in the call log, one with UTC+1 and one with UTC+2: same caller/number, same type (incoming/outgoing/missed), and same duration, but only the times of the two calls are one hour apart. And this happens only for the calls in the winter time.

Could we have a "remove duplicates" that handles that situation, just like we have in the Messages archive? Come to think of it, I believe I posted a similar request when I made a trip to Africa two years ago and times of some call log entries went crazy.

Thank you.

I have been using MPE for some years now, and still it is great.

But now Microsoft seems to be moving away from Notes in Outlook to One Note. Microsoft have a track record of first hiding and then dropping functions.

Will you be allowing Syncing with One Note at some stage?

Thanks again for an excellent product FJ

Suggestion: Make SMS messages read on phone

When the phone is connected to the PC through USB and an SMS text message comes in and is displayed on the screen, MPE should make it read on the phone.

Currently, it's not, and the message pops up on the PC every time MPE is run to sync, forcing the user to 1) open the phone, 2) open the SMS application, and 3) open the message.

Thank you.

Suggestion: When creating new item in Tasks on phone, automatically put focus on Task field so Android opens the keyboard layout, ready to start typing:

That might be a bug on yours. Once you've "read" the message on MPE, it should be marked as read (both on the phone and on MPE).

By "read", I mean "opened the message", or "scrolled down to the message in the messages list". With the second, the message should automatically show as read after a second or two. One bug in this method is...if the unread message is the TOP message in the list, highlighting it doesn't automatically mark it as read, scroll down one, then back up to the top message & it works (weird bug).

You can also right-click in the Messages window & go down to "Mark all as read".

I wouldn't want it to change to "read" after showing in a pop-up, as there's no telling if I actually SAW the pop-up...I'd rather keep it as a function of a deliberate action taken by me in MPE.

It took me some time to realise that the Sync button at the top left of the screen only syncs the type of data that is currently displayed.

Could there be added a Multisync button too please?
Or a page that provides multi-sync?

I cannot write a post on this software without expressing my amazement that this one program provides all the features that Samsung Kies has so far completely failed to provide, and not only that, this one program allows communication with the phone with every possible modality - totally incredible! Thank you.

under "Settings", "Advanced 1", you can set a "Hotkey for Multi-Sync" - I have set it to Ctrl+S - that will start a Mult-Sync - very convenient

I really love this program. It does almost everything, there is only ONE simple thing that is missing and that is the possibility to backup both SMS AND MMS! Today you can only backup SMS. But I would really like to be able to also backup MMS.

Best regards from a very grateful user =)

When I sync SMS messages, I always/often get the message below:

Some messages are already in the archive. Copy identical messages to the archive?

I don't really see the point of this question. If you answer yes, you'll get duplicates in the archive. If you answer no, well, you won't lose anything.

Can we get an option in the settings window that lets us configure this behavior and set a default answer? Thanks.

Suggestion for the MPE Taks application in Android: When Searching, wait until the user has hit Go before actually searching.

Currently, the application starts searching while the user is still typing, which makes it stop halfway through because the CPU isn't fast enough to perform both tasks.

Hi FJ,

is there any chance to get in touch with Business Calendar guys in order to have a common and syncable task APP?

Hello,
I'm Vietnamese, and i just use your soft for an hour. I really like your soft, specially is USB cable connection.
However, i realize that, I can import my contacts with Vietnamese, but can't edit it. There's an error when I typing Vietnamese... All of character of Vietnamse (such as á, à, ấ, ở, ử, ộ,...) is auto convert to "?" symbols. You can see it in the following image!
Can you fix it in the next updates?
Thanks for reading!

Hi all!
In MyPhoneExplorer for Android there are two very useful and convenient widget - Notes and Tasks.
It would be good to add the same widget for desktop windows 7, with background synchronization over MyPhoneExplorer or even Google Drive.

Excuse me for my English. I will duplicate my post in Russian and English.

Привет всем!
В MyPhoneExplorer для Андроида есть два очень полезных и удобных виджета - Заметки и Задания.
Было бы хорошо добавить такие же виджеты для рабочего стола Виндовс 7, с фоновой синхронизацией через MyPhoneExplorer или даже Google Drive.

Извините меня за мой английский. Я продублирую мой пост на русском и английском.

This is my number one functionality wish list item:

My whole family shares a contacts set and a calendar, but getting some family members to sync their devices is a problem. My kids don't have access to my computer account and my wife isn't very computer savvy and just won't ever log on and sync her phone. It would be easier to get them to have up to date calendars if the MPE app on the phone had a button for initiate multi-sync and then dialogs for managing conflicts similar to the PC. It would also be good to have some permissions per device built in so that I could restrict some mobile users to read-only syncing (i.e. overwrite device entry or skip that item for conflicts).

I know this is probably a big item in terms of development, but I think would really take this utility to another level. I know why MPE is great, but it's sometimes difficult to get others on-board.

I'll second this one. An "initiate sync" button within the App on the phone would be quite useful.

So...with all the troubles popping up thanks to the 4.4.2 update, I'll add a request.

We need a bare-bones SMS reader in the on-phone app so the phone will stop bugging us with that "do you want to switch default reader" message over & over again.

[janjan]

here is my wish:

i use calendar very often and i would be happy if it will be possible to edit the appointment duration presets. in "new appointment" window there is column "duration" and i can select "2 hours, 4 hours, 8 hours etc". and i would like to quickly select for example 5 hours (because my appointments are periodically 5 hours), not edit the "other end time" because of it. so in settings of my phone explorer there could be section to edit these presets.

(sorry for my english it is not my native language)

(and thank you for myphoneexplorer, its one of the best software i use and first "free" software which i sent donation to)
