Thread: Contacts postal address won't display properly.

I've had my Desire for a couple of months now and I'm fairly pleased with it.

A small item I'd like to see changed is the way that the HTC People app displays the details of contacts. When a contact name is clicked on it brings up their details and unfortunately the way it displays the postal address just doesn't work. In a single line it displays a preview of their address and when clicked on only offers the option of viewing in google maps (not the actual address text). It is possible to view the entire postal address if editing - not a smart move and could lead to accidental deletion. Maybe there is another way of viewing postal addresses but I certainly can't figure it out.

It would be great if the full postal address was displayed in the contact details without having to edit or open google maps.

Thanks

Sadly I have the same issue with my Desire S - so no improvement. I was used to using my iPhone as an address book and quickly copying someone address onto an envelope. My Desire only shows the first line of the address; though if I click EDIT as suggested here then I can see the whole thing; including the postal code.

I think the address book should show the entire postal address; not just take you to a map of it. Feels like missing functionality. Spends too much time linking contacts and not enough time letting you use them.

Is this a HTC issue or an Android one? I have so little android experience!

I want my address book back!

did this ever get fixed or is their a way of displaying a contacts full address details in the contact list without editing it?
