In 'phone settings' where you get the option of "display my number to outgoing call for: Everyone, None, and Only To Contacts."
Selecting only to "contacts" blocks your number from being shown when it should be availible. Has anyone had this issue? Ive read somewhere that the contact has to be located on the SIM card. But didn't get much detail other than that.
Can someone expand on this?
this is an annoying problem. Any solutions?
Help please
ideas anyone

Does anybody know how to keep the contact filter locked to the last used?
For instance, when I filter my contacts I select "Friends" as the category. However, when I close the phone app and return later, it swithces back to "All Contacts" filter/category.
It becomes annoying to constantly select the filter.
Can somebody help, please?
I would like an answere to this as well.
Please pardon this posting (if this is an already known issue - it's 3.00AM and I've been combing the Herald threads for known issues but didn't see this on there)...
I got a new Wing today and after placing the SIM card in it, the phone works like one would expect until you try to send a text message. That never gets sent . What's more aggravating is the behavior on incoming text messages. The keys light up when I get a new text message and the counter on the home screen adds to the number of unread messages however, when I click on the link to attempt to view the messages, the inbox is blank. 0 messages in it. I have checked all the folders to no avail. Even a hard reset on the device doesn't seem to fix the issue. Am I missing something here? If so what??
FYI I called T-Mo support and their Tier 3 guy was stumped.
Here's the wierd thing while I was going through testing to validate that this was an actual issue, I did get the "incoming text message" bubble notification and from there, I clicked on Menu (from the home page) and was able to view the text messages - so they're somewhere in my phone, just not in the inbox - anyone have any idea where I can look?
*bump*
I'm having this problem now. Ever find the fix?
Hi,
Is there a way to send an sms to all contacts?
Also how do you select multipe contacts for messaging - do you really have to do one contact at a time as I have been doing, or can you "mark" multiple contacts?
Cheers.
In the list of Recipient type the contacts following bij a semicolon.
for example:
contact1; contact2; contact3 etc
Hi, same thing here. Do you get a "check names" option in the forward message opiton box that doesn't do anything? Is there any way of adding a check box to the contacts menu? Would be nice. I've searched the whole forum and can't find any answers. Search brings up no matches either.
Thanks.
I dont know about 'all', but multiples are easy, just keep clicking the To button and selecting your contacts from the contactlist (one at a time).. A checkbox would have been neater tho.
Try google for Group SMS. It lets you list your contacts by category, and checkbox those you wish to SMS to.
I'm sure I had that one. If anyone finds it, please post a link.
I have catagories set up, why can't I just text a catagory and it messages them all..
Eaglesteve! Searched as you said and installed Groupsms. Works great.
Cheers and thank you.
Searched but didn't come across an answer for this. When I create a text message and type the persons name in the "To" field, all of the phone number options for the person have the same icon (mobile) as opposed to Mobile, Work, Fax, etc. Is this specific to my phone and is there a way to change this?
Also, is there a way to use T9 in the "To" field?
Sorry for bumping this. Just wondering if anyone else has had this problem. Been keeping an eye on the forum but haven't seen anything.
When I receive a text message from anyone, it will display in the notification bar but when i go to view it, it's telling me Unknown Address and I miss the message and who it was from. Can anyone give some insight on why that happens and how to fix it?
Thanks
