Is there any way to limit the Phone Button view to what's listed in People? Are there any third party apps to replace this behavior that don't require root? I have all 150 of my coworkers' contact info in Gmail but I don't need 24/7 access to their phone numbers from my phone. I've set the...

I can't remember if it's showed up before or not, but my dad's cellphone number no longer shows up in the Recent Calls list. This holds true regardless of whether I call him or he calls me. I haven't noticed any other missing Recent Calls, but his is probably the most important number to not...

Is there a way to customize the Phone button so that I can sort the contacts by a certain group order? I have a lot of people's work numbers in my Google Contacts list but I rarely call those numbers. Also, I'd really like to minimize the number of recent calls that show up at the top, since...
