Hello guys!!!!
I have an HTC HERO that i bought in U.S.
My contacts are with carrier code + area code + number, so its like this: 041(carrier)11(area code)55555555(number). So i can call them when i am in roaming without adding the codes.
But, when i receive a sms from a person, it does not show the name of the person, it only shows the number of the person.(example: instead of Paul wich phone number is stored as 0411199999999 it shows 01199999999)(note that it shows 0 + area code + number)
The same way when i´m in roaming and receive a call.
How to fix that?
Other question is: I bought it from Amazon in U.S, so, my phone is U.S or Asian? When in first turned on, it showed me to select 3 languages(Singapore English, Chinese and another that i remember)
ps: I live in Brazil.
Thanks,
Sérgio Paulo

need to dial international and domestic call frequently. however, unlike handspring treo, xda did not allow to recall the phone number from contact and then manually add the prefix, e.g. 00986 + city code + number... etc. Any suggestion here?

Yes. It'll take some time, but it'll solve your problem for once and all: change all your stored numbers to international format, e.g. +49 (89) 555255 for a number in Munich, Germany. Numbers in this format will work from everywhere in the world (the '+' does the magic here), and of course also from the country or town the called party is in.
It's probably much easier to do this in Outlook, then synchronise the numbers back to your XDA.

tks for your advice. however, in hong kong, we have many IDD service providers while if using "+", it will choose the most expensive service provider which i don't want to. well... i am always travelling around between hong kong and china and i have to add both local dial prefix and IDD dial prefix for each tel number, both office, mobile and home. you know, this is really really annoying and time wasting. hope there will be some temporary solutions here including some charged software solution.
Does any one know how to remove the "+" in front of the phone number?
For some of the contacts I want to use a different dialing prefix instead of the the default "+"; but every time I synz it with Outlook the "+" is back.
Thanks
normaly +XY is the country prefix all over the world
and even if one is calling from within ones own country it should not matter
if one use the country prefix
Sorry was traveling so could not get back to you on time.
Thanks for your suggestion I am aware of the +; but in Hong Kong there are many service providers who need you to dial their code instead of the + (as pluse is default to phone service company's network). So, e.g. +91201234456 would be to dial India using my network provider (CSL or PCCW); but there are other cheaper companies i.e. 1528, so instead I need to dial 152891201234456.
But, now the problem is ever time I remove the + and put this code for some of my contact(s) on my Dopod; Outlook puts it back and worst makes it default to 852 so after a synz I landup with +852152891201234456.
how to remove + in phone number
try photo cntact pro
there is option to remove + in incoming phone call
Hi guys. I hope there is no other topic about this strange problem on a G1. I live in Romania and I have a G1 Phone unlocked from T-Mobile. Here I am on Vodafone. When someone from my Phone Book sends me messages, I see his number like +4072XXXXXXX or 04072XXXXXXX and not his name. This happens I guess after the last official update, I am not sure though. The phone has the DRC83 Build number and Firmware 1.6. Even if I send myself messages it shows only the number, of course I added my number to Contacts. Thanks
I've seen similar issues to this and I believe the reason is because 1.6 supports 10 and 11 digit numbers...example...
In the US numbers are 1-555-555-5555. Not sure how it goes in Romania but if I had a local number stored in my phone as 555-5555 before the update, I would need to change it to either 1-555-555-5555 or just 555-555-5555 for the name to show up again.
Not sure if it will help for Romania tho
Another issue could be not syncing new numbers before the update...
Ok this might be a noob question but I DID spent more then half hour looking for an asnwer before posting and could not find my answer. so here it is.
When I am roaming every time I make a call I need to type in 0+area code+operator (phone company) before I enter the number.
However I normally use the numbers that are already in my contact list, if I click on it it will dial without the additional information, because in my home city I don´t need this codes and so I didn´t inserted the phone numbers with 0+AC+Op info.
Is there a way to configure my phone to add 0+Area Code+ Operator when I am away from my home city? And also the HD2 recognize that I am in the area code of an outside city and do not dial 0+AC+Op for this specific city when I am on it?
Thank you
Felipe

Ok it seems obvious that I can just input the 0+phone company number+area code before the number and save it in the contacts, it works, what if I change my operator (phone company)? I will have to go thru every single contact and change each number with the new number?
I wonder if there is a way to manually input it when I am roaming, like in the old nokias and LG once I was roaming and I dialed a number in contact list it asked for area code and operator number.
Hello, guys!
First, I´m using Note 3 SM-N900 version.
I´m having an annoying problem with my stock messaging app.
I have my contacts with their number with area code saved (i´m in Brazil, so it would be: 0 41(operator code) 43 (area code) 9999-9999 (phone number), resulting in: 0414399999999, rather than only their number (99999999). I save the numbers like that so I can call them wherever I am inside Brazil. And it works (obviously).
The problem is: when I send any message to them (to that 0414399999999), they receive it, I receive that "message received" confirmation, everything ok!
But when they answer, the answer gets to ANOTHER topic, with a number without the operator code (04399999999).
I can answer them through this topic, no problem with that.
You would say: that´s correct, 'cause those are 2 different numbers.
So I added the second number (which, actually, is the same phone number), without operator code, to the contact, so it would recognize that it´s the same contact and put them at the same topic, but no success.
If I save the contacts without the operator code, I can´t call them. I can only call them if I save without any code (either operator or area code) or with both.
Question is: is there any way to MERGE those topics?
The image will explain better what I mean.
