is it possible that in the the contacts you can add new fields, such as Mobile phone 2, if the contact has another mobile phone, or something similar to that?
I'm waiting for that fix too!
Soooo may times I'd had to put a contact's mobile phone number in anyother free field in contacts list: BOOOORING!! :evil:
We will see; maybe with WM2005 Magneto....! :roll: :roll:
have you tried using car tel or work2 tel or home2 tel ?
yep, but I can't send a SMS from there!
Am I wrong?

Hi xda2 users, I dont seem able to find a thread on this issue. Perharps I have wrong configuration.
The problem is this. Got sms-es, but unable to view the sender in the inbox. It display the sender's full phone number instead. It is not wise if we have to guess or find in the contacts.
Since we are in XDA2, anyone using photo contacts? I remove caller_id at startup and is it why it wont work? Hehe, try for fun. Thanks.
Well, I am able to see caller name from the Contacts (not sim card) when the person call. So, I dont think this is a problem of me removing caller id at start up. Could it be that the format for the humber in contacts and sms inbox is different?
For example, my contacts number format is (016) 123-4567. Tested that it can be used to call, too lazy to change all to normal number since this is previous iPaq format. Meanwhile sms inbox no is of +0161234567.
Please advise. Thanks.
Hehe, it is solved :lol: I type wrong phone number for testing. Hehe.
Hello,
On most phone when you get an SMS with a phone number in it, you can allways underlined the number and then push CALL BUTTON and call this number
Example : hello John, call Suzan at 0123456789
and then 0123456789 will be underlined and you can call this number
Is that possible on Magician ? Anyone know a trick ?
Thanks guys
Wow! This is so old problem but so important for me. Are there any solutions now?
You can draw a line on the screen with a Gel-pen.Then write it to a paper.Then dial it!
HAHA,just joking.
Universal
I have the Qtek 9000 and it has the feature. I'm not sure if it's a WM5 thing or just a Universal thing.
It's a feature that Microsoft added only with Windows Mobile 5.
You won't get it with older versions of the Messaging app.
With my XDA and XDA2, I just used to drag over the number, Tap+Hold, and choose Copy, then Edit/Paste into the Phone app.
No other way, unfortunately.
Hi folks,
TIM Brasil send me ans SMS with all calls I've lost. useful when I flying, at arrival I saw who call me.
The problem is the SMS contain the caller number, time and date, so I need to search at Contacts to discover the caller name.
Someone know a piece of software able to look at phone number inside of SMS and scan the Contact to match it, showing the name of the contact?
Best regards
Any ideas?
Here in Italy vodafone sends a similar SMS but sets the sender name to the one who attemped to phone you
In this way the phone shows automatically the name (if it has been stored in contacts)
To quickly discover who's the owner you can do two things:
1) if the message contains "This number +xxyyyyyy tried to call you..." press the down key (the number should be selected by a square box) click and your phone should start dialling that number (doing a lookup in contacts and showing the name)
2) you can remember the first numbers (excluding the international prefix) press "red phone", "green phone" (to quickly start the phone application) and use the hermes' smartdialer to quick find who's the owner.
Try using SPB Diary...
Make sure your numbers are in the international format.

In fact this work, but is not exactly what I want, because after a airplane trip the SMS has 3 or 4 numbers. So I need to call/abort 3 for times... It's not elegant way.
thanks.

WM developer
Hi Guys,
I'm trying again... Is there a WM developer here who could develop a little plug in to do it?
I think is not complicated, but I don't know WM development to do it.
Of course this could sold to the community.
i had once a siemens sl45 and when i had a phone number in a sms it replaced it by the name in the phonebook... i so miss that feature..... i haven't seen it on other phones since then...
I'm not alone
Finally someone understood what I'm saying.
It's very useful this feature. I'm wondering if someone could develop this.
Anybody as a volunteer?
Maybe this is what you need?

Is there a way to add to add 2 mobile numbers for the same contact? I don't why, but people do have more than one mobile, and I just cannot figure out why there is only one Mobile number category in the Contacts option. If anyone knows how to do this, it would be really nice to know. Thanks in advance.

Put the other number at Car field and you will be able to call and send SMS to that number using our device.
Thanks but even after entering it in the Car field I don't get the number when I type a new SMS. (I can send the SMS selecting it manually) It just suggests the number in the Mobile field... so back to square one.
you can create a new text message click contact -> navigate to the caller -> high light the car using your dpad. click menu then click sent text message to

Inesoft Address Book 1.8 or 2.0 has that feature. Just replace one of the fields (say fax,car,etc.) to mobile and you'll have two mobile numbers for a single contact..
Hi,
at the moment if i go into a contact and check his/her details, ive noticed that i can only insert one mobile number. Is there an application where i can add more than one mobile number?
thanks
