IP contacts to a regular cell phone...

Anyone know of a way to transfer my IP contact list to a regular cell phone (Samsung SGH-a237)?

Once you have your contacts synced with your Mac's Address Book, you can use iSync in your applications folder to sync to your Samsung. You may need a 3rd party plug-in.

What is the process for sharing calenders and contacts via a company cell phone

Hi
how do you share Outlook calendars and contacts using a company cell phone...currently we are sharing using Outlook in the office using MS Exchange Server.
do you have any suggestions?thank you!

Don't know which phone do you use but if you configure your Exchange ActiSync Profile on your Phone there is an option for the CONTACTS. Basically Exchange account will pull the contacts from your profile.. I did test it on my iPhone 5 and works for mee

Can I Upgrade From Regular Cell Phone to Smartphone Several Months Early?

I have a Samsung Sway that I upgraded to last spring - in March. It's been a great phone, but I now have a full-time job where I need e-mail access and would like to upgrade to a Droid smartphone. Beyond that, my Sway has serious screen issues now where it frequently becomes a patchwork of lines and squiggles that I can't see anything through. I have a feeling it's dying.
I'm on a Family Plan and have been for years - my mom started the contracts 7 or 8 years ago - and I'm wondering, could I get an early upgrade to a Droid? It would require me getting a different plan for the phone since it would need data etc. versus my current 1500 minutes, unlimited texts, no data plan. Would it be possible for me to upgrade for free or for a small fee?
How do I go about upgrading even though I'm still about five or six months away from my Every Two Years upgrade? Is this even possible?

Generally, Verizon will not change your upgrade date, even if you change your plan or add high-value features like data. Verizon allows you to reverse these changes at any time, so they are not an effective bargaining chip.
You should start by calling CS and asking if you are eligible for any early upgrade promotions. These vary by region, so you may be lucky.
If there are no promotions, you could do an alternate upgrade using the eligibility from one of the other lines on your family plan. Basically, they upgrade and give the phone to you, then in March, you can upgrade and get them the phone they want.
Otherwise, you will have to purchase the phone at full-price or from a non-Verizon source.
Good luck!

New lync contacts default to cell phone for lync call button (part 2)

The problem is that when a Lync 2013 user adds a new contact, and then tries to place a call in Lync, the default option for the Lync call button to that newly added contact is that contact's cell phone (if that contact has added a cell phone number).
The default should be a Lync call, not a cell phone number.
Others (thank you very much!) have answered very similar questions here: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/lync/en-US/80fde051-1d3c-495e-aa32-63e93e5e4104/change-the-default-oneclick-audio-call-option-on-lync-clients?forum=ocsvoice
and here: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/lync/en-US/cd05243c-bbcf-46f4-9269-045d9c31867b/how-to-set-the-default-number-on-a-lync-contact-to-lync-call-instead-of-work?forum=ocsclients
So I understand one possible solution is to: Set-CsClientPolicy -Identity Global -EnableVOIPCallDefault $true
However, here's the odd issue I'm having and why I'm posting: I ran Get-CsClientPolicy across three different, independent Lync servers (all for completely different orgs/domains that are managed separately) that I have access to, and the EnableVOIPCallDefault
is set to false for all of them. However, this problem behavior is only affecting one of the orgs, the other two, when a new contact is added, the call button in the Lync client defaults to a Lync call, not a cell number.
So why, if across three independently managed Lync servers, if the EnableVOIPCallDefault is set to false, would it only be defaulting to cell phones in one? I compared the results of the three Get-CsClientPolicy, and could not find a logical pattern
in any of the settings that could explain.
The only thing that I can think of is that the org that is affected, the line uri is a 4 digit extension, not a full 10 digit phone number. In the other two orgs (including the one that I am a user in), it's a full 10 digit phone number.

EnableVOIPDefault is only the default option for the first click-to-call for a contact, once a different number is selected it becomes the default and the policy has no effect.

Is there an easy way to toggle between an Apple ID and a cell phone number in Messages?

My son has an iPod but just a regular cell phone. We communicate a lot through texts/Messages but he doesn't always have a wifi connection on his iPod so sometimes, he is only reachable through his cell phone number and other times through his Apple ID. Is there an easy way to select which channel I want to contact him through on Messages?

Hi,
On your Mac in Messages with his conversation in "focus" (the one selected) Click and hold his Name in the "to" Spot and the top right of the right hand pane where the conversation is.
This will become a Drop Down and show you the iMessages (and other accounts he might have) options.
In some cases they may not have been used before and may not have the indicator.
Example
NOTE.
Any phone number will be listed as a potential iMessages ID as well any emails.
In the above example I happen to know that both the emails are Apple IDs (What I don't know is if my wife as linked either to her iPhone Number)

Is there any way to contact verizon with a detailed cell phone technical support question?

Is there any way to contact Verizon with a detailed cell phone technical support question? I prefer e-mail so as to provide details (like I am trying to provide here). I have tried in-store personnel (no help at all) and the web chat - they just want to see me more data instead of helping me with my basic problem!
I CAN NOT GET ANYONE FROM VERIZON TO GIVE ME ANY HELP NOR CAN I FIND A WAY TO FILE A COMPLAINT. AT THIS POINT I JUST WANT TO DROP MY VERIZON ACCOUNT BUT I'M SURE THAT IT WILL COST ME A SMALL FORTUNE TO GET OUT OF IT.
Here is my issue:
Chat transcript removed as required by the Verizon Wireless Terms of Service
BELOW IS A SCREEN COPY FROM REDDIT ABOUT SOMEONE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM WITH A VERIZON CELL PHONE
So last night my RAZR MAXX HD did something totally bewildering by spontaneously downloading 2.6 GB of data over the course of ~ 3 hours. Fortunately I was able to catch this problem before it ended up being really expensive, but I still exceeded my 2 GB data plan by 600MB.
The Culprits:
Reddit News Free: 160 MB foreground / 0.96 GB background
Android OS: 0 MB foreground / 1.18 GB background
Several unnamed applications: ~ 350 MB
Screenshots:
The massive data spike
Android OS data usage
Reddit News Free data usage
Weird unnamed processes
Detailed timeline:
5:12 PM: Incident begins according to VZW data usage website (2.60410 GB used). This is around the last time that I used my phone at the laundromat before getting dinner and watching Game of Thrones.
8:04 PM: 50% of data allowance used (txt msg)
8:31 PM: 75% of data allowance used (txt msg)
8:58 PM: 90% of data allowance used (txt msg)
9:13 PM: 100% of data allowance used (txt msg)
10:05 PM: Got the text messages and immediately put the phone into airplane mode
10:30 PM: Took screenshots
10:45 PM: Enabled wifi, installed Kaspersky premium. Scan returned no threats.
11:00 PM: Left phone in airplane mode, went to sleep.
The questions:
What was the root cause of this issue? Did Reddit News freak out as a result of an esoteric bug or was my phone hacked?
If this was a simple Reddit News bug, then why was the Android OS also trying to use such a massive amount of background data?
What the hell are these unnamed numeric applications? I've inspected my process history and this is the first time they have ever attempted to use data.
I'm pretty sure that I can explain this situation to Verizon and get out of having to pay additional data usage fees, but I would like to know more about the problem before I get in touch with them.

All I can think is your phone may have background downloaded an OTA update, and you'd then be prompted with something like, "As update to your Android system has been downloaded, would you like to install it now?"
I do find it very odd that the update would be 2.6GB. As a rough base, the CyanogenMod 10.1 firmware for your device is well under 200MB, so unless Verizon has a ****-ton of bloatware in the update, or it had to attempt to download multiple times for some reason, it may be a stretch.
But doing a little homework, it looks like the Verizon Razr Maxx was updated to 4.1 in late March. Maybe they're still rolling it out in waves? Have you gotten the update yet?
Edit: Aaaand I just noticed you appear to be running an AOSP-based ROM, which totally rules out a carrier update being sent out.
Edit2: If you want to live dangerously, you could try running:
#kill -9 12289
That 12289 is the PID listed in your screenshot. But don't run that without fulling understanding the kill command.
The ps command could also be of use, but probably not.

I can confirm that the phone is currently at 4.1.2 and that I wasn't prompted for an OTA update.The fact that both the Android OS and Reddit News processes were simultaneously using an extremely large amount of data is unlikely to be a coincidence...

That is very curious that the spikes happened at the same time.I'm curious. It may have put at least some of that 2.6GB somewhere. You could use a data visualizer tool to see if you can find it, which may lead to more clues.

The largest directories are:
DCIM: Normal looking photos (90,825 KB)
Android: Primarily map cache data (64,846 KB)
If it was downloading content then it did not significantly save content to storage. It's not like I have anything particularly sensitive on the phone, but the idea that it was uploading a snapshot of my data definitely makes me uncomfortable.

Yup, Digital Camera IMages and videos.Somewhere in /sdcard/Android would be my guess as to where a mysterious file would be downloaded, but if it's only 64MB, and mostly map data, I'd safely rule it out.I'm sorry, but I'm stumped here.Edit: I should mention I don't think this is malware, because unless a malicious app gained superuser access, any data it used would show under it's own apk in the data usage list, not Android OS.

Although I'm not really up to speed with the Android platform, I come from a UNIX background so I feel comfortable running commands. How do I pull up a bash terminal? Do I need to root the phone first?
permalink
parent
[–]omgmrjmako/PA, deb/Carbon 2 points 1 year ago
There's a number of terminal emulators in the Play Store that work well. You don't need a rooted phone to get to the shell as your user, but any privileged command won't execute unless you can grant it permission from the Superuser app that is installed when you root the device. So you could probably do a ps -e, but not a kill -9.

Got it. I downloaded a terminal emulator but unfortunately those processes no longer exist.Does Android keep a generic log of system level events like /var/log/syslog?

[–]omgmrjmako/PA, deb/Carbon 2 points 1 year ago
I don't think so, and I know you'd need superuser permission to read most of the files in /var/log anyway. I'm not super familiar with how Android does its logging, but I do know that the two files of interest are the logcat and dmesg.

Want to mention here that using your settings to set your data cap (set it on your billing day), then you won't go over again.Those text messages are really unhelpful, as they send out well after the data has been used. Chances are good you hit close to the 2GB mark before you received the bulk of the messages.

That's definitely not the case here; both my PC and and Android phone are free from pirated apps.

You used the data. Verizon can not see what it was sued for. However your phone can see whats apps used the data. go to settings-data usage- there will be a place that says data usage cycle. line the dates up with your cycle. then there will be a bar graph below that extend bother white bars one all the way to the left and one all the way to the right. after those are extended below that will be a list of apps, there should be one that used over 2 gb and that will show you what app used that data in her purse

Backing up cell phone contacts

I want to use iSync to back up my cell phone contacts in a specific Address Book group.
I don't want to transmit any information from the computer to the phone. I just want to pull data from the phone to the computer.
I tried using iSync to sync my Motorola v710 with an Address Book group called "v710 contacts." When I was done, (1) no contacts appeared in the Address Book group; (2) the two people I call most frequently were somehow deleted from my phone; and (3) certain other people who I never call suddenly had a redundant listing on my phone.
Anyone know the right way to do this? Thanks.

There is no 'right' way to do what you want with iSync: it simply does not have this capability.
iSync is designed so that, within the limitations of an applied filter—such as the Address Book group identifier—both sets of data are equal or identical when the event ends. It has no provision to overwrite the contents of a Mac OS X application like the Address Book with the contents of your mobile handset.
You will simply have to look for another OS X application to transfer selected mobile handset contacts unidirectionally to a data file on your computer.

I have a Verizon LG Versa cell phone, how do I get my contact list from there to my new iphone 4?

I have a Verizon LG Versa cell phone, how do I get my contact list from there to my new iphone 4?

Matt,
   My new iPhone 4 is on the way from Verizon, and I too am moving on from the LG Versa (a poor man's iPhone) so I've researched this. I trust you have been using the backup assistant on the LG phone to backup your contacts? If so, and you investigate the app store you will see an app for doing the same task on you new iPhone. Initially it will take you LG contacts you have backed up at Verizon to their new home on the iPhone.
According to user comments there appear to be a couple of issues with the app you need to be aware of:
   1. It will not automatically backup your iPhone, you will need to initiate updates in the future on your own. and
   2. You will see in the comments, that there have been some issues with length of backup when you add lots of contact photos to your list.
   This coupled with the address book sync from your computer should make your list whole, in fact the move to the iPhone will allow me to consolidate my address book with my cell phone contacts. Then once I remove the duplicates all will be right with the world.

Again, you wasted your money. You can ignore raymond73's post, as you won't be able to turn off Find My Phone or delete the iCloud account associated with this phone, without knowing that info.
I don't know how clearer I can be.

How would i put a Australian cell phone number into my contacts such as 899-8930

How would i put a Australian cell phone number into my contacts such as 899-8930

Check the country of the contact, then use the international prefix number and iOS will sort out the display of the number.
In addition to iCloud: Change the format of addresses and phone numbers

Contact Center Express 8.5 and Cell Phone Agents

Is it possible to setup agents on Cell Phones. For example: We have two ATT company IPhones. We have agents that work offsite on the weekends. We would like to maintain queuing capablities as well as reporting if possible while having the agents use cell phones. They will not have access to a laptop or PC.
Thanks for your feedback guys!

Hi Joshua,
You can setup Call Forward for agent's phone to agent's cell phone but you won't be able to change status and it's not supported because can cause some issue but at the end is up to you.

WeBoost cell phone signal boosters could help your reception

Maybe it’s Murphy’s Law, but dropped calls usually happen at the most inopportune times. An important or engaging conversation cut short by a sudden drop in reception can be annoying—even more so if it happens with any sort of regularity. Cell phone signal boosters are designed to amplify sending and receiving those signals, and weBoost has products that cover both your car and home.

Thanks - was unsure who to contact but will do so

Poor cell phone signal

Is there a cell phone booster for an area with a poor signal. An external dish, antenna?

Thanks Lawrence. We use CommonTime mSuite to integrate our Lotus Notes with iPhone's Calendar, Contacts and email using the Exchange iPhone connector, and I am one of the administrators for mSuite. I have deleted and re-added the Exchange account on my 5s running IOS 8 multiple times, and have done the same on an iPad Gen 3 and an iPad Mini. All with the same results. (The results are that email comes down, but calendar and contacts do not, and email will reload every so often.) I've deleted the account on the mNotes server a couple of times as well, to no avail. I have an old iPhone 4 still running IOS 7.1.2, and setting the exchange account up on it, immediately everything came down successfully from Lotus Notes onto the old iPhone. This is definitely an IOS 8/CommonTime issue, and CommonTime has acknowledged that there is a problem, though they have as yet no fix. The one good thing to come of this is I now know what was killing my battery. After 7 hours of use last night (regular use on Facebook and Feedly) my battery had only gone down to 83%. Other of our 46 users who have upgraded to IOS 8 have the same problem as I.

Support Line - Call Forward All through Hunt Pilot to cell phone

I know I may be beating a dead horse, but I've found so much help in these forums that I figured I'd give it a shot.
We have a Cisco Unified Communications Manager Business Edition and we are running into a configuration issue. What we would like to do is to create an emergency support line for our IT staff. The way we would like this to function is that a caller dials a number, CM accepts the call and dials out to our IT staff's cell phone numbers in a round-robin fashion. To avoid the caller getting dumped into the IT staff's voice mail on their cells, we would like the staff member to have to dial a number to accept the call. If there is no answer, the call rolls to the next cell number. If no one is available, the caller should be directed to Unity Connection to leave a message. Unity then will send out text and email messages to the support staff.
I know that we can use Unity to perform an assisted transfer, which will require the user to press "1" to accept the call, and we are able to get Unity to send out the notifications (text and email) when a voice message is left. The issue is with Call Manager making the outbound calls to the cell phones.
What we have attempted is to setup DNs that call forward all to the users cell numbers. These DNs have been added to a Line Group, which has a Hunt Pilot attached to it. Any time this pilot is called, we get a reorder. Using the DNA, we see that "no device is associated with the DN", which is under the DN for the first users cell forward. If we add that DN as a second line to that users IP Phone (7940), then the call into the Hunt Pilot rings that line on the IP phone, not the CFA to the cell phone.
After weeks of digging around, it seems as though CFA in a Hunt is just not possible. My boss wants official word from Cisco about this, but TAC doesn't seem to want to help due to service contract issues (which blows my mind, as we have opened several cases in the past two months for configuration related issues). Our Business Edition came with Contact Center Xpress, although we do not have the resources available to install it. If CCX will carry out this task, that might be enough to push management into getting another server to support this, but without being able to play around with it, I don't know.
If anyone has any suggestions on how to make this work, I would GREATLY appreciate the help!
Thanks in advance,
-Geoff

Hi Geoff,
Always interesting isn't it :)
Call Forward settings on individual Hunt member phones are ignored when presented a call via the Hunt feature. Here is a clip;
The concept of hunting differs from that of call forwarding. Hunting allows Cisco CallManager to extend a call to one or more lists of numbers, where each such list can specify a hunting order that is chosen from a fixed set of algorithms. When a call extends to a hunt party from these lists and the party fails to answer or is busy, hunting resumes with the next hunt party. (The next hunt party varies depending on the current hunt algorithm.) Hunting thus ignores the Call Forward No Answer (CFNA) or Call Forward Busy (CFB) settings for the attempted party. This also applies to CFWD ALL settings.
From this doc;
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/sw/voicesw/ps556/products_administration_guide_chapter09186a00803edabe.html#wp107892
So, any Forwarding settings have to be done on the Hunt Pilot itself. These Destination settings (on the Hunt Pilot) need to be configured to go to the Unity Voicemail Pilot # or perhaps this is where you Forward out to the Cell #;
Hunt Forward Settings
Forward Hunt No Answer - When the call that is distributed through the hunt list is not answered in a specific time, this field specifies how to forward the call.
Destination This setting indicates the directory number to which calls are forwarded. (This can be the Directory Number of the Unity VM Pilot)
Forward Hunt Busy - When the call that is distributed through the hunt list is busy in a specific time, this field specifies how to forward the call.
Destination This setting indicates the directory number to which calls are forwarded. (This can be the Directory Number of the Unity VM Pilot)
Maximum Hunt Timer - Enter a value (in seconds) that specifies the maximum time for hunting.(Used in conjunction with Forward Hunt Busy)
Maybe you could leverage these Unity Connection configs to achieve your desired results. These will ensure that the Message is not left unattended;
Cascading Message Notification
Cascading message notification allows you to send notifications to a widening circle of recipients. Cisco Unity Connection continues to send notifications according to the devices you selected until the message has been saved or deleted by a recipient.
For example, to create a cascade of message notifications for your Technical Support department,
Chaining Message Notification
Message notification can be set to "chain" to a series of notification devices if an attempt to send notification to the first selected device fails. The definition of failure to a notification device is based on the options you select for retrying a device that is not answered or is busy.
