Is there any way of having more than one mobile number for each of your contacts? I bluetoothed all my contacts to my XDA2 from my P800, but on ones with 2 or more mobiles it only sent one of the numbers (in most cases, the wrong one).
Also how can I set a default number for each contact? It seems that home is the default if a contact has both home and mobile numbers
You just have to be flexble on the "title" you can put any of the hp no into any of the "home tel" or "office tel" and as the change the default goto ur contact list on ur extreme right there is a indication of either a mobile no "M" or a house no. "H" just tap on the letter to change the default look
Aha, you're a star
Many thanks
Hi folks,
I've just upgraded my Hermes (Vodafone 1605 - UK) with the latest Vodafone ROM. All is well except I seem to have lost a dialling extension that I had in the previous ROM.
Let me try and explain what I mean....
On the previous ROM whilst on the phone dialler screen, when I hit a number with an alphanumeric character associated with it - for example '2' has 'abc' associated with it - I used to be presented with a list of names from my contact list in the top left corner of the phone screen that I could then scroll down and select to dial.
The new ROM doesn't have this (or at least I can't seem to find a way of turning it on).
Any ideas on how I might add this functionality back?
Regards,
Kev
Good morning.
Could I please get some advice about settings or versions of smartdialing.
I am lucky enough to have a Diamond and an X1.
Smartdialing on both decives brings up the desired contact, the differences I have noticed is that on the Diamond when you tap the contact it immediately rings the last number dialed for that contact, be it home, work, mobile etc.
On the X1 tapping the contact opens the contact details allowing selection of what function to carry out. ie. the normal WM screen, call home, work, send text etc. which I prefer.
Is there anyway to change the settings to get the Diamond to react in the same way as the X1?
Many thanks in advance for any assistance.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
YES that is also what I need, I used a Wizard and Tytn II and both did the same but not with the Diamond and I what that back!!
Is there someone who knows a solution for this??
Sorry but I searched and cannot find answers-
A few questions:
I have tmobile in the usa (oregon) with a black sony x1i
1) Issue- I am coming from a Sam BJ2- I use exch server for email, contacts, etc. When I set up my X1 with my exchange info- everything worked nicely-
But some of my contacts that are smsing me do not show their contact name only the #. I think it might be cause some have the 1 (XXX) and some dont have the 1. How can I fix this as I have 600 contacts?? Please help
I noticed that the phone wont dial a # without the 1 in front of it-
2) on my BJ2 - when I wanted to call, email or text someone- I would start typing their name and I would choose from the list as I am typing. I cant do that with the xperia- typing doesnt do anything- How do people quickly search for a contact???
3) Is there a seperate box that shows on the home screen when SMS's come in as opposed to 1 message box with a red #? I would like to see if its an email or sms.
Thx in advance
In regards to 1, have you tried selecting "United States" in the regional settings?
Yes I set it to USA english-
Also where is the battery indicator on the home screen??
Thx
1) thats a calling ID setting... there is nothing you can do about it except you go change the contact number and add or remove the 1 before the area code... the phone is just trying to match whatever the caller ID is to your contact list... if it is not the same it wont display it.... I have had that problem on my BJ2 too and I had to change all those contacts as well
2) I can do so by sliding out the keyboard and start typing the name and call... not sure if you are doing the samething or you are trying to get the soft keyboard out to type...
3) I have a sms or email notification showing up on the bottom of the screen whenever I receive them.... otherwise the sonyericsson panel have a option to display them I think
Guys,
I've posted this before but nobody has helped me yet.
Basically put I have a couple of contacts for which I have more than one contact number (home, Mobile etc..)
Anyway, when i receive a call from one of these contacts, the name is not resolved, the picture is not shown and the custom ringtone I have chosen (all by vanilla stock rom means) does not ring!!
I have seen this happen with "Exact" matches to contacts in my Contacts list and also if I have entered the number as "+447760....." instead of using the default "07760...." prefix for UK mobile numbers (as I'm abroad a lot so need to use that to dial them) it also refuses to recognise that they are in fact the same number - something my Artemis did without an issue.
Please help me resolve this - it's ruining my HD experience!
Thanks
21 views and no replies - come on guys please - going on a trip tomorrow and I need this to be sorted if poss - doing my head in!!
I had exactly the same problem on my X1, which I have now sold so I could get a HD. I was on o2 uk using itje's 5.061 rom. What network are you on and which rom and what software have you installed? maybe something we both installed is causing the problem
Right, I'm on a stock rom on an unbranded Touch HHD on the Vodafone network. Programs I've installed are as follows:
Changscreen,
HDTweak
Advanced Config
S K Tools
Battlog
Fingerkeyboard
Resco file Explorer
Very strange - it might have happened since I restored a backup but I doubt it.
Try reducing Phone>Call ID match number in Advanced Config.
I have similar problem... Just installed dutty 3.0X and when i sinchronized all my contacts become duplicated, so i deleted manual only the first ones. And now when someone from the contacts is ringing i dont get picture or his name and I am sure that i have the same number in the contact list. Odd
Anyone have any other ideas about this? Still causing me some considerable pain - I seem to recall it started after I started to reconcile the outlook contacts with my PC - this may have caused a different contact ID (or something?)
same problem and no solutoin... :-(
i managed to fix this by reassigning the phone numbers to the contacts page. It seems to occur when you use 3rd party contact management apps before you have assigned numbers.
Works fine now
mslookout inserts spaces into phone number, and prolly phone cannot recognise incoming number having spaces in phonebook?
I also cant fix it by changing CallIDMatch in the registry. It's bizarre as I have 2 contacts in my favourites: both are now set to No's starting with '0' yet when one texts me, their name shows and when the other does, their number shows. hard and soft resets have also failed to resolve this, HTC helpdesk no use at all, also logged with Windows helpdesk in case it is a microsoft, not htc, problem.
Am keen for other things to try, open to suggestions....
Am disappinted and amazed that what is otherwise a great phone, can't do what cheap cr*ppy phones, can , ie show the name of the person calling or texting.
Have you tried using Advanced Config and increasing Call ID match to 9 or 10?
No caller name when receiving Incoming Call
This may be an old thread, but sometimes the newer ROMs also have the same problem.
This happened to me after updating my from from WM 6.1 to WEH 6.5.3. So, I am updating this thread on how I resolved my problem.
Step 1. Edit the Registry and change the CallIDMatch value to 7 (the original value was 10).
Code:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Phone]
"CallIDMatch"=dword:00000007
Step 2. Soft Reset (power off and restart)
Before I did this, I needed to copy my contacts from SIM to the Outlook Contacts list, so in my Contacts list, I have "double view" of both lists on the same screen - frustrating.
After this change of the Registry key value, I erased all my contacts from the Outlook Contacts list (use the Hide Sim Contacts function) because I prefer to have my default contacts to be from the SIM card instead of the Outlook Contacts. This way, I can be assured that all newer contacts will be stored on the SIM card and I do not have to worry about losing contacts if I change phones.
