t9 not working
hi, i tried to use Emerald, but the T9 function is completely not working with me; does anyone else have this problem? eg if I type in 2 numbers, just those 2 numbers appear on the screen, none of the corresponding contacts. I would completely use Emerald if this was solved; it looks great and its great to have a good open source app for this. Rik
i'm not sure if i understood you correctly @Rik44444, but if you are talking about the input field this is intended:
- in the input field only the numbers you type are displayed, in case you want to call it directly (or add to the contacts)
- in the list view/section every contact AND number is displayed which matches the possible patters of numbers you typed or corresponding t9-letters.
Hello. The dialer won't work on your device if your language is not supported, but there might be other reasons for such behaviour. Please could you share information about the device(OS version, language, keyboard type)?
hi, see two pics here: in the one you can see i called someone named Eric today, in the 2nd you can see that when i type a 3 and then a 7 in the dialer, no "Eric" pops up - this is what i meant that t9 appears not to be working.
I'm on /e/, a new Android based OS, http://www.e.foundation/ . The one i am running is based on Android 7.1.2. . Phone: moto e, Condor. Language of my phone is English. Keyboard type i don't understand the relevance, there is no keyboard in the dialer, right? but i use Swiftkey

I have exactly the same problem: If I start typing on the numpad, no contacts appear above the number entry box.
Emerald Dialer Version: 1.0.7 (installed from F-Droid) Permissions granted: Contacts, Telephone
Android Version 8.1.0 Language: English (United Kingdom) Keyboard: AnySoftKeyboard (two languages installed: English, German)
Contact app Simple Contacts Version: 6.3.1
Can I help with any other information to track down this problem?
Same with v1.0.8 from f-droid on AOSP 9 English locale all permissions granted
Note that I do not have any Google apps installed, in case that is a factor
Wanted to update: just got a new phone, Unihertz Jelly 2, on regular Google Android Q: still same problem, both with Dutch and English as phone languages. Would be great if this could be solved at some point!
I just installed the latest version (1.0.10 on the same system as described in https://github.com/HenriDellal/emerald-dialer/issues/39#issuecomment-479947538). I checked T9 and it is unfortunately not working. :cry:
Can I somehow help with debugging?
First of all, you need to install adb following this instruction: https://www.xda-developers.com/install-adb-windows-macos-linux/
After adb installation, follow this instruction to get logs: https://gsantner.net/blog/2018/03/19/android-contribution-guide.html#providing-logs-to-developers-logcat
Replace com.example.app with ru.henridellal.dialer, so to e.g. check logcat output on Windows, use
adb logcat | findstr ru.henridellal.dialer
Linux/Mac:
adb logcat | grep ru.henridellal.dialer
This is a log file, where I started the app, pressed the keys 5 7 and 6 and closed the app again: ru.henridellal.dialer.log
I marked the actions in the log files.
When I started the app, a list of recent phone calls was shown at the top. As soon as I pressed any number button, this list went blank immediately, even if the number pressed was part of a phone number or T9 contact name.
If you need any more log files or anything else, please give me a shout!
Thank you very much, @sphh! Seems like the problem was related to number formatting bug, which I've fixed in 1.0.11. I'd recommend waiting for F-Droid build and test it again.
