Hi Guys,
I got a new G4 yesterday, one thing I'm struggling with is hiding my caller ID.
I tried one solution for moto g3 (giffgaff forum - can't post links on a new account) but there is no "calls" icon under Settings... or anything similar...
I also can't find "additional settings" or "caller ID" on my new phone.
Anyone knows how to do it?
open up the dialer to the call log, click the 3 dots on top, settings, call settings, additional settings, caller id, hide number
If anyone has a dual sim G4, in addition to the response by Rempala: after 'settings' you need to select 'calling accounts' then choose the sim for which you wish to make a change, then 'additional settings'. At least, that's what worked for me. But thanks to Rempala - without your guidance, I would have been totally lost.

Hello, thanks to Rempala and ax201, now i know about it too , but some operators do not allow you to change that configuration, "use default operator settings" is usually to show ID.

I have the same problem.

Anybody knows how to fix it?

I don't know what smart dialing you ppl are talking about but on my exec if i seach by name in contacts it gives both results - by first as well as last name.
If I use the keypad to key numbers in the dial mode then it searchs by number, firstname and lastname. So whats the issue about? Also the list of people is displayed wherein the matches for the firstname are displayed first and then the lastname. Yes the names are displayed in lastname-firstname format but that doesn't really make a difference does it? (the names are highlighted to the last character keyed in)
The only way to change the order from Last, First to First Last is via desktop Outlook. Go into Tools > Options > Contact Options and change the "Default Full Name order" and "Default File As order" options to what you wish.
However, the only way to change the existing contacts is to go into each within desktop Outlook and change the File As option.

but isn't there a way or a registry hack to change the display to FirstName/LastName in smart dialing?

In contacts, press the contacts and it appears a new item in Menu in order to make first name, last name
In my old Hermes (Cingular 8525), there is an option in the Phone Settings to hide my caller ID, so that when I call someone they will not see my number on their phone.
However, with my Mogul, I don't see that option. Does anyone know how can I do this?
I miss this feature on the mogul too. But you can type *67 and the number for example the number is 18001234567 type *6718001234567
P.S. if you find a patch to do this from a menu I would love to hear about it.
Thanks for the info. But that means I can't use my "Phonebook" to dial, as I have to manually enter *67 and then the number.
Maybe some of our resident hacker can figure it out?
Do you just want to permanently hide your number from everyone you call? If so, you should be able to ask your carrier to add a "No Caller Id" code to your account...
you could edit the phonebook entry or make an aditional one that is blocked and call it their "other" number or fax or something
Hi all,
Thanks for the suggestions. I don't want to permanently block my caller ID, only for select number. I prefer to be able to change the caller ID feature on the fly without editing the phonebook, but I guess I'll have to do so until Sprint implement this feature.
Hi
I'm with Bell Canada and we have a option on their web to block caller ID. I selected this option and in my contacts I added *83 to the number I want to unblock my ID. So if I dial a new number I know that my block caller ID is on.
Hello,
I was on windows mobile, and I used a basic function which can hide my callerID to all numbers out of my contact list, very usefull to show me to all my contacts and not my customers.
I searched on the phone such an option but nothing, so I don't worry I go to the Market thinking a very simple function must exist there, but nothing...
I open my computer search about it and see a message that someone try this but can't find function in the SDK for the caller ID ?
Is there a way to do it (even if i have to do the app but I don't want to lose many hours to understand android coding if it's simply impossible !)
Thanks a lot if you have an idea on the question.
Hi!
On gsm networks you can add #31# at the beginning of the phone number to hide caller ID. In US use *67 (untested).

I`m looking for the same thing. One simple application that can hide my ID by pressing one button.
I`ve looked everywhere.Googled,searched Market and nothing. All apps are for US users. Prefix #31# or 141 doesnt work in UK. At least in O2 UK. Dont know about others.
So PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE anyone who know anything about Android apps to make something that might help. I`m tired of going to settings and hiding my ID everytime i want to speak with my customers
I am using cm7 and in the call settings there is a setting for caller id. You can have it be private public or network determined.
I do agree that it would be a great app to have your id hidden to people outside of your address book. I think it would have to be an alternative dialer though
From something awesome
Hi!
I'm extremely happy upgrading from Windows Mobile to Android! But when I go into the settings, it can't find "My phone number" and it can't be set, either. Googling indicates it could be set in an older phone, but I've tried that without success.
Googling also says a lot about the mobile operator "pushing" this info to the SIM card. But my operators support didn't understand neither the problem nor any solution. They just claim everything is OK on their side...
Thanks for any hints!
Best regards,
Knut
settings - call settings - scroll way down to 'additional settings' - my phone number.
At least thats where it is on cm7 roms.
If you also add yourself as a contact using that same number, with a contact pic, it will use that contact pick for you in txt message threads once the 'my phone number' is set.
I get my axon today,i really love this phone but i cant find the option to allow send my number.im showed private number for the called phone.pls help somebody!
It's usualy a network setting. In my country I can override my network setting by prefixing the number with *31#
Not sure its the same everywhere.
If it does help (and you can't change the network setting itself) you couls try prefixer from te app store to automaticaly prefix every number you dial.
Hopes this helps.

I try this and a little window says showing call number enabled but its still doesnt show my number,i have a chinese a2017.i read somewhere this function is not supported on axon 7 and axon mini too.
update the opposite of *#31# code which disable number display is working for the axon to show caller id! Code is #31#
