Is there any way to change my carrier's name to anything i want? it is very long and i don't like it because it makes the notification space too small and i can't see the call duration during the call. (cytamobile-vodafone cytavoda)

So Handcent allows you to change the vibrate notification pattern for SMS.
Is there any way to change it for incoming calls? I find the current pattern bad, as it is one small 'blip' followed by a fairly long pause before it vibrates again. I'd want it to start big to get attention faster.
Is there any application out there that allows this to be changed?
+1 on this one too...I think short multiple vibrate is effective for calls too
Missed Call allows for this.

Just installed it, and it only seems to allow it for after the call has been missed?
When going to the phone dialler, you can tap out the name of a person but it does not give you the option to call any of the associated numbers. Seems to only come up with one number (probably the first in the list).
This was coming up wrong for a few people I call a lot so I set their default number. I now don't know how to deselect the default number (so there is no default). I want to do this because when I add a short cut to a person on the desktop, it will give a drop down list of numbers to call if there is no default but dials the default number automatically if it does have a default number.
Seems really bizarre. I would have expected:
Being able to call any number when entering a name from the dialler (with the default number first if it has been set).
Being able to call any number from a person short cut regardless whether a default number is set or not.
Being able to remove a default number from a contact.
Any help or workarounds will be greatly appreciated.
TIA
I am on JM2 and I don't have this problem. Whenever I start typing the name of a contact, it appears, I press on it and all the number are there to choose...
That's promising. Are you able to confirm if there is a way to remove the default number selection from a contact once it has been set? Thanks.
Hi,
Is it possible to add a profile image to the Android voicemail contact that appears in the phone call history when you touch a voicemail entry in the notification pull down?
I've spent quite a bit of time collecting images for all my contacts and, though I know it isn't a bug in Android, it bother me to see the blank voicemail profile image among the phone call history items. Touching those history items does pull up a contact entry for voicemail but there doesn't seem to be a way to edit it. Is there something that I'm overlooking or is it just not possible yet to do so?
I have the same Problem.
I want to put in an Image which contains all the tone dail numbers of my Voicemail.
It's so disgusting to wait for the woman's voice who says "for ... press 1, for ... press 2" etc.
I'll hope there will be a possibility
I want to know if it is possible to force a ongoing call/dialer app to be on top for the duration of the call. The reason for this is because on my carrier, MTN in South Africa, has a really neat deal. When making calls I get a certain percentage discount from call charges. It depends on how far I'm calling, whether it's to the same network etc. This information is shown as soon as the call connects. I've attached a screenshot of this message.
This message minimises the dialer and goes to homescreen, then when I want to end the call, I have to pull down the notification bar, select the ongoing call entry to get back to the call, then dismiss it. It's really quite annoying, so my question, is there a way to block this little message? An Xposed module maybe..? I don't know much about this kind of hacking but if someone who knows how could help me I'd be very grateful. If you need the phone.apk I'll provide that also.
This question is not specific to the Nexus 6P, but that is the phone I carry.
I add 2 or 3 phone numbers (telemarketers) to my blocked call list every week. When a telemarketer calls, I (1) hang up, (2) go to the call log, (3) tap the call record to expand it, (4) tap "call details", then (5) select "block number." That's all very simple.
The issue is that now that I have dozens or hundreds of blocked numbers , when I miss a call, there's no easy way to see if the missed call was from a number on my blocked list. A missed call from a blocked number looks the same as a missed call from an un-blocked number (unless they're in my contact list).
I can scroll through (but not search or sort) my blocked call list by (1) opening phone app, (2) tapping "Settings" in the primary menu, then (3) tapping "Call Blocking." This presents a list of all of the numbers that I've ever blocked, but I can't search it and I can't sort it.
In a perfect world, the Call Log would somehow show a flag for missed calls from blocked numbers so that I don't have to search the list to see if the number is blocked. In an even more perfect world, a tap on that number would take me to a detail page showing all the times that number has called and been blocked. Finally, the blocked number list would be both searchable and sortable.
I think that most/all of this could be accomplished by a 3d party app - for which I'd gladly pay five bucks. There are lots of call blocking apps on the market, but they all appear to operate separately from the Android native call blocking function.
Q. - Any suggestions on how to make this better?
if you miss a call using stock dialer.app call blocking, and the number is on the block list, there is no record of it in your call log.
The whole point of blocking the call is so there is no trace of it.
>>> The whole point of blocking the call is so there is no trace of it.
I disagree. The whole point of blocking is not to be interrupted by a call from an unwanted caller. The point of a log is to make a record of incoming and outgoing call - and attempted call - activity.
then in that case you should use do not disturb.
call blocking is just that, blocking a call.
Agreed. Don't ring the phone, but I would like to see a log of the blocked calls, so I can tell how persistent a spammer is.
