Sort Contacts in Pantech Hotshot

I can sort my contacts in the Backup Assistant by first or last name.  How do I sort them in the phone?  I can't find that option anywhere!

Usually you can go into the Contacts on the phone, select Menu and there would be an option to sort the contacts. I've researched this and checked the User Manual and do not see that sorting the contacts on the phone is an option available. It is set up by default to sort the contacts in alphabetical order.
I found a helpful site with the available options to manage your contacts on the Pantech Hotshot. If can also contact Pantech directly for additional assistance.
If you have any other questions or needs further assistance with your account please let me know and I will be more than happy to assist you.

  • Is there a way to truly "unlock" my Pantech Hotshot so I can answer it while driving without causing a wreck?

    Okay, maybe I'm just not understanding something, but here goes.  I recently "upgraded" from my 1990's era flip phone to something more "modern", and so far I'm thinking it's one of the biggest mistakes I've ever made.  In my ongoing quest to just be able to actually use my Pantech Hotshot, the most recent situation I'm facing is figuring out an easy way to answer the thing without have to slide up the locking bar and then press another icon.  My wife called me yesterday while I was on the way home, and in trying to fiddle with the blasted thing I missed the call and it went to voicemail.  I then pulled over into an office parking lot to call her back, lest I kill myself and someone else on the road.  Here is the closest thing I find about this issue in the user manual:
    CALL SETTINGS
    Allows you to customize the call settings of your phone. HOME KEY TO ANSWER Allows you to answer incoming calls when you press the Home key. 1. Unlock the screen, tap Settings and then tap Call Settings. 2. Tap ON or OFF next to Home Key To Answer
    In actual usage, all this seems to mean is that I can hit the Home Key to answer the phone, after I have slid up the locking bar.  What I think I'm looking for is a way to totally disable the locking bar so I can just answer phone with going through multiple gyrations while driving.  Any insights on this out there would be most appreciated.
    I do so miss my flip phone.  All I had to when receiving a call was flip it open and say hello.  And pulling up my contact list to make a call was an easy, one-handed operation.  I don't see how fiddling with a touch screen is progress, but maybe I just don't get the big picture.
    Thanks all.

  • Pantech Hotshot Alerts Not Working

    I recently started using our son's Pantech Hotshot and cannot get the alarms and calender alerts to work.  The volume is at max and there is a specific tone selected for each.  I have taken out the battery and took off the vibration for the alerts.  It still is not working.  Does anyone have any suggestions?  Thanks.

    Hello WhiteDrone,

  • Pantech Hotshot.. Issues.

    My Pantech Hotshot randomly reboots all the time. I bought it new from the store, I've had it for just over a month, never dropped it, it has no water damage. I don't understand why it's having this problem, but it shuts off then turns itself back on multiple times a day. It happens randomly, I could be in the middle of a call, or it could just be lying on the table and I happen to notice it restarting itself. It also doesn't always play my ringtone when I receive a call. I've tried multiple different tones, but it does the same thing with all of them- sometimes it'll play the ringtone when someone calls, other times it's silent and then plays the missed call tone at the appropriate time... Over all, I like the phone, but these issues are starting to get very annoying. Especially it restarting itself when I'm in the middle of a call. Anyone else having problems like this with their Hotshot?

    My version is D8992VWBC44F.236
    Thanks so much for looking into it.  As I said I REALLY like the phone when it works and don't want to turn it in for something else so hopefully you can get it resolved.
    So just to be clear my phone randomly doesn't sound the ringtone but instead it sounds the missed call chime.  But other times it does sound the ringtone like it should.  When it only does the missed call chime I then see the call and phone the person back.  It has happened with my friends and family on Verizon and those who aren't with Verizon.  Not good though if it is a Dr's office which has happened to me twice.  They are so hard to get ahold of so when you get that call you want to be able to answer it.
    The other issue which doesn't happen as much to me is that I will be using the phone on a call and then hang up and all the pics that I have saved to pic id for contact numbers are gone.  Same for pics in the pics area.  But if I take the battery out and put it back in they are there.

  • Pantech Hotshot Destroyed

    My Pantech Hotshot is destroyed.  My wife transferred her Pantech Hotshot back to her old LG phone.  Her phone works fine and no loss of data.  Me - Lost everything.  I transferred my number to my wifes Pantech Hotshot and it works - I get calls and texts but my address book cannot be transferred from Backup Assistant to my phone.  I have talked to a Verison Level 1 million tech support and they can't get Backup Assistant to recognize my phone change.  This boggles my mind.  what is Backup Assistant for then?  Does anyone have any suggests for Verison's techie's.

        Hi Tom145,  I am so sorry to hear about your device!  You certainly have a wonderful wife as she was willing to swap phones with you!  Are you getting a specific error when trying to restore the contacts?  Are your contacts still showing online on My Verizon?  Have you tried removing the Backup Assistant app from the phone and re-downloading it?  I look forward to your reply so we can get to the bottom of this!
    Thank You,

  • Sort contacts by company in the address book dialog

    Hi all,
    When I create a new email, I click "to" to select the recipient. In the dialog box, I select my own address book (not the Exchange one), but I am not able to sort contacts by company. I only have display name and email columns. Right click does
    not works.
    I red this was not possible, but it seems weird that I can sort by company in the Exchange address book and not in my own AB.
    Regards,
    Seb.

    Hi,
    I can confirm that we cannot sort contacts by company in our own Address Books. As a workaround, we may use
    Advanced Find beside the address book to find the people from a specific company.
    Although Outlook is now a quite powerful tool, it is still not perfect. Outlook considers users' feeling very important and may make the change to make itself a more powerful and easy-to-use product.

  • Sort contacts by company

    I just bough the new Iphone 4. Can you sort contacts by company rather than name?

    In iOS 4 and 5 you could do it by creating the company name first, saving it and then going back to add the first and last name. In iOS 7 it is not possible to sort by company name no matter what you do.

  • Sorting Contacts on iPhone

    Is it possible to sort contacts by "company" rather than by first or last name?

    You can't sort your contacts by anything but name directly on the phone, but a little work on the computer can give a result that might work. I create groups in my contact manager that syncs to the iPhone. I can put people from different businesses in different groups. That way I can choose a specific group to look through, rather than all the contacts. It also works to separate out family and friends, etc. But you can't create the groups on the phone, only on the computer, and then sync them to the phone.

  • N97 How to sort contacts by company name

    Is it possible to sort contacts by company name rather than first name,last name etc?

    This is a HUGE shortcoming of Nokia's contacts app, which is still the most awkward and "old style numeric keypad telephone" oriented applications in the Nokia software suite on smartphones.
    It's the only reason why I am still sometimes missing my Blackberry. There you find everything so quickly, and not only just typing in the individual's name, nor having to use that Nokia general search tool.
    But now that Nokia FINALLY introduced a year ago "finding names typing", without launching the contacts application first I still have the hope that Nokia will release one day a REALLY user friendly, fast and flexible fully integrated agenda suite...

  • Sorting Contacts on iPod by Business

    Hi, my father and I own a business and i'm giving him my iPod. He has a Windows PC and uses Outlook and likes the idea of having an all-in-one gadget for music and contacts, but we've hit a problem along the way. How do I sort the contacts by business, instead of a First/Last name basis?
    Thanks,

    I'd also like to be able to sort contacts by Business->User (like iTunes does with albums->songs).
    Address Book also needs some kind of "Business"-merging of all people inside a single business (so we don't have to repeat all information such as fax, URL, address, etc).

  • Workaround - Sort Contacts by Company

    Until Apple provides an update to allow sorting contacts by company, I found a short workaround.
    Simply create a new contact, entering ONLY the company name. Save completely out of it (tapping "Save" twice.) Go back into the contact, tap Edit, and enter any other information you would as usual.
    The contact will then forever sort by company, not by name.
    Cactus!

    Another way to do this is after syncing. Your new addresses should sync with Address Book. Just go into Address Book, edit the contact and mark the check box that says Company.
    I can't say that I do this every time I sync, but I just go down the list while I have a second or am sitting on hold waiting for somebody.

  • Ability to sort contact in palm

    I recently was upgraded to 6.2.2
    It appears the that the ability to sort contacts by first names is gone?
    Can it be recovered?
    Post relates to: Palm IIIe

    Sounds like you should organise all your folders by date order and give them a descriptive name, That way you can find things far more easily. Then you should keyword the pics so you can find within entrire library.
    here's a fictitious set of folders to demonstrate.

    2008-01-29 Gardening
    2008-01-29 Night Out

    This structure as shown above is also good in that it will survive different programmes and even different OSes. Are you going to rely on Adobe, let along LR being around in 30yrs time? One should never let a programme dictate your fundamental filing structure - iPhoto, iTunes yuck, messy.
    I also try and separate out differing shoots from each day as I'm hardly likely to want to look through gardening and night out shots together and it also speeds up individual folder rendering.
    This specific structure is designed so it will always correctly arrange by date, do this and your problem is solved as LR simply imports your folder structure.
    I've used this for a long time now and it's very robust.
    Though
    2008 - 02 - 17
    also works as does
    2008_02_17
    just be consistent with what ever suits you.
    I prefer using dashes to underscores, more readable and easier to type and I think this method
    20080117
    is stupid/useless [unless you are a computer].
    I use Bridge to import from Cards [LR sucks at importing as it doesn't copy all file types] and you can set Bridge to place images in folders by date shot automatically.

  • How can i sort contacts according to company name on my iPhone

    how can i sort contacts according to company name on my iPhone

    That is not a sorting option in the built in app. There are other apps in the App Store that can access your contact information. Perhaps there is one that will let you do that.

  • Pantech Hotshot  has horrible signal strength

    I have a Pantech hotshot and tend to have 1/2 of a bar with 3G/1X while in my home.  Other family members on our same plan have much stronger signals within the house.  We also have a verizon wireless home phone line that seems to have fine reception.  Is this inherent in the device or can I do something to improve this?  I've done #228 recently.

    The issue is verizon dumped the modern EVDO REV A network capabilities and went back in time to the EVDO rev 0 (the rev 0 had slower data speeds and less strength) My guess is that if you look at the specs on the other phones, they are EVDO rev A which im my experience had better signal quality. I had the lg versa (rev a Compatible) before my hotshot and the versa always had 3-4of 4 bars for both 3g (EVDO) and 1X whereas my hotshot gets 3 bars of 1x and if im lucky 2 bars of 3g. Verizon implemented these phones to literally be a basic phone and if you want the better signals, more advanced features and 4g capability, then they force you to the smartphone plans. NONE of the feature phones are 4g compatible and they wont be until verizon does away with 3g
