Help Froyo and STILL can't view addresses?

[brykins]

Have 2.2 now on my Desire (with HTC Sense if that makes any difference) and I am amazed that when I open a contact to get their postal address (to write on an envelope), I STILL can't view it. I can see the house number, street and some of the town, but can't see the postcode.

I can click it and see if in Google Maps (useful) or go Menu -> Edit and scroll and see it all, but why does it have to be this way? Does NO-ONE at Google or HTC actually USE an Android phone?

I use a Droid running 2.2 and don't experience this problem.

Isthmus - does the Droid run plain Android without the HTC stuff?

I don't have this problem on my Droid either. Can was assume that the postcode is visible when you edit the contact? Did you somehow change the font size being used?

It's a Sense bug. One can only hope the new Sense version fixes it (but I'll believe it when I see it).

 

[brykins]

Wayrad - that's what I thought, what with all the Droid users having no trouble

Have emailed HTC Customer Support but imagine the answer will be: talk to T-Mobile...that's the answer they normally give.

Mine scrolls when I highlight it. Revealing the post code.

It is MAGIC.

 

[brykins]

Ah! When it's highlighted it DOES scroll. Problem now is that the track-pad thingy on the Desire is so rubbish that it takes five minutes to actually make it highlighted ;-)

I'll be darned, it DOES scroll. Before the 2.2 update I'd gotten out of the habit of trying to use the optical joystick for anything - I guess other DInc owners must've done the same, since I've never seen this solution mentioned before. Thanks!

What a load of crap! Have they never heard of displaying addresses on more than one line???
