Hi All!
I have 2 contact list. First on XDA II memory, and second on my SIM card (this list i using with old phone like Simens S35).
I have a strange and BIG problem. All names of caller who make call to my phone will be not displayed. I can see only incoming call number if caller information missing on SIM card contact list. (but caller information may be include in XDA II Contact's)
Contacts information have format like +7 (921) XXXXXXX (or other +44, +49 ...)
What the problem?
How i can see caller information from my XDA II contact list at incoming call?
Any body HELP
With best regards, Maxim
P.S. Sorry for my english
most cellphones have both room for numbers on the sim card and in the phones internal mem
so if you cant solve it any other way you could always delete the content of the sim card and just use the contacts on your xda and your phone
Example:
I have record on my SIM like "Piter Mobile +7 (921) 1234567" and record in XDA II "Piter Gabriel +7 (921) 1234567"
Piter calling on my phone... I see "Piter Mobile". If i delete this record from SIM contact list, i can't see "Piter Gabriel". I see only "+79211234567".
What's problem?

Pls check numbers at SIM and at XDA carefully. Think you have different numbers at both devices.
No. Phone number from SIM and from XDA contact's is identical.
Suppose I know You use your XDA with Nokia? SIM is not inside your XDA? If so you have to receive information (address book as well!!!) from your phone via bluetuth or irda. I.e. if you dont have contacts at the SIM card your XDA will display numbers RECEIVED FROM YOUR PHONE. i THINK
No. I use at same time only ONE device
Now XDA II. SIM card into XDA
Draft! Im not crazy
I have a real problem. All standart metod to resolve already tested (may be :? )
hmm How you delete record from your SIM?
Will test on my Xda the same. Maybe smth find
To add/delete numbers to the SIM card, you can go to the SIM manager app (built in).
It will allow you to export numbers to your contact list as well. To make a number go from a contact to the SIM card, you need a third-party program. Pocket Informant (best PIM there is, IMO) can do this, don't know of any others that can off the top of my head.

Hi, I use a calling card when calling internationally. On my old Ericsson there was a section where you just input the calling card number and it prefixes it to whatever number you are calling...
Is there any dialling software for XDA out there that lets you prefix a number before dialling one from your contacts?
Thanks,
K
I am sure you used to be able to do it on the universal but now it seems I cant !!! does anyone know how !!!
I doubt you can send them, but you can enable tones in the phone control panel (I think it's there, but somewhere near there).
That just makes the phone keypad beep lyrical.

my old nokias can do it and so can my GF's samsung D500 !! a very useful option when using 3rd party dialers, I dont understand why this phone cant do it !!!
I always use this feature to send over the calling card PIN number and the destination number so even though I make an international call using phone card I do not need to puch the PIN etc manually. Just record the number into the contacts and use some delays. It works.

I know what you mean but that means I need to change all the international numbers stored in my phone, it would be easier if I could just call the number and then choose the number out of my contacts and send tones !!!
i have the same issue. i use an international caller to dial out to america and on my nokia i would just send the tones of the numbers i wanted to dial. now i have to write them down so i can punch them back into the xda. shame
Assuming I understand your problem correctly, it sounds like the problem is with your calling card provider and not your phone. The Universal, like any other phone, ought to send DTMF tones through in-band audio -- pretty standard stuff. I've tested this with my calling card provider and I'm able to put in my PIN code through DTMF without any problem.
I think that what these guys are describing is the ability, whilst on a call, to say "Send DTMF" and then choose a number from your contacts. This way, you can store your calling card number in one phonebook entry and all your other contacts as normal, then you choose the calling card to dial and then "send" the number for the other contact. However, you usually need to append a "#" with these services and the number needs the international prefix (so USA becomes "001" instead of "+1"). I generally just store two numbers against each name - one normal and one with integrated calling card.
I don't think anyone is saying that they can't manually key in the number mid-call.
That's exactly right, Melty.
atm my caller id is only working with number/names in the SIM memory..
is there anyway that i can have the contact that stored on the phone (sync outlook) to come up for caller id?
is there a software to patch this prob? o is there i setting i m missing to activate this?
My ROM is the newly updated one in end NOV (with blackberry function).
Using O2mini...
can anyone help me...? ><~~
Sorry, I have no clue on this issue, but I experienced a the similar problem, as my contacts (phone book) grows over time. As it grows, the phone took longer time to search through the phone book before could really display the caller's name. Instead only the number was displayed. Can anybody tweak around with this problem?

here how u goes
Start > Programs > Sim Manager
Wait for the Sim Manager to load all your contacts from Sim. Once done, highlight all the contacts, tap tools menu & select Save to Contacts. It should copy all the selected contact to your phone memory by now.
er.. dont think that was my question/answer..
but thanks for trying to help anyway ^^
I HAVE RESOLVED this problem now:
I think because there was no contact (ZERO) on my sim card memory, for some reason it didnt trigger this funtion.
So what i did to make it work was to make a new contact on the sim card with the number/contact that was also stored in my phone memory, and try call it, i realised it was showing the contact name that i had on the phone memory not the sim (as the number is the same but to distingush i make up differ name). Then i deleted the contact on my sim (back to ZERO) and try call again. NOW the caller ID shows up.

Use the search option in this forum or use SK tools. You can change this in the registry
Thanks For that I found the answer here

Reg change fixed it

Nothing to thank for. In fact most people are angry if they are told they should use the search function. Great u used it and found what you needed.
Have fun and enjoy!
I changed the ShowSIM (0), but when incoming call my phone show the contact from SIM.
By Phone:
NAME - two numbers (mobile and home)
BY SIM:
NAME1 - mobile
NAME2 - home
When incoming call my phone show NAME2.
WHY?
Hi there ,
When i check my contact list i have a message saying sim card unavailable at the top under search. Had the phone 2 weeks problem free and this is the only issue i have. Ps also happens on my girls x10
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
I had this but fixed it by taking the SIM out and editing advanced-special number- in my old phone and adding my number.
My phone number now shows instead of the "sim card unavailable".
Yup agree with above poster... shove it in a dumb phone, edit your number then pop it back in your smart phone and it will be able to 'see' the number
Great tip. That's been bugging me for a while. Thanks!
I have a htc touch dual will that do it ? Thanks for replies

hi
i need to save my number to a special/my own number??
or i need my to save my number and edit the name to something special??
How would you edit your number using a dumbphone?
It does work, but there should be an application to fix this , it is funny that a "smart phone" can not handle "stupid tasks"
Wanted to know how to do this also. Cheers
I used a blackberry on the service provider store to edit it and be able to use taptalk...

LOL...good one...
yes!!!
thats exactly how its done... I had the same problem , removed the sim, put it in an old SE phone, edited the number and now it shows up in my X10i...
FYI: Mobile number is never pre-stored in SIM card given by your mobile operator. The SIM card only contains IMSI (International Mobile Subscriber Identity) which is the ID of the SIM card it self. And the phone does not know what is its phone number as well. And that is why that you can actually ask the mobile operator to change your phone number, without requiring you to change SIM card.
So you need to manually write your own number with other phone.
PS: Mobile phone eavesdropping/tapping hardwares also cannot see your phone number, only IMSI as the phone send their IMSI to mobile network. So movie that shows that they can sniff and see your phone number in their hardware, its fake.
i sold all my old phones
