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.
hi, i've searched and i couldn't find a good answer to just these two questions:
1. what's the best profile changer and if possible when silent it will send a sms automatically?
2. is there an app that can say the caller's name?
i found phone suite and i want to know if there's another app or better for the profile changer.
thanks.

thanks, jarob. any takers for the 2nd question?
MS Voice Command will announce callers name if the number is in your contacts or say the number if it isn't.
Hello, im using the Mytouch in Argentina.. and i Had all of my contacts exported from an old iphone.. i always store my numbers like this
+54 (country code) 11 (city Code) 3333-3333 (local number)
so something like this +54-11-3333-3333 , the problem is that MOVISTAR argentina sends caller id differently for voice calls and for SMS.. that same number would appear like this
If its a voice call then it is 11-333-3333
BUT if that same number is sending you an SMS then the ID would be 011-333-3333 so no matter how i store the number.. since i guess that android reads the numbers from left to right.. i either have it right for phone calls or for sms.. but never for both.. any fix to this?
thank you for all the work you guys put in this
no luck on this?? its driving me crazy !!
Hi. After installing the latest firmware and root my caller id isnt working properly.
Before the update. When i got a call it only shown the caller number i.e.: 85360000 (brazil pattern). Now it shows area code! This is bad because caller id doesnt recognise the number unless i edit all of my 400 contacts.
The problem is even worst on sms because it is adding up not only the area code but the country code. Something like +551183003200
Thats really annoying.
Does anyone know a fix or software that can make the caller id translate only the 8 last numbers for cross_matching with my contacts?
Thanks in advance

Is there a way to make the caller id/sms id recognize only the last 10 digits or something like that??
Hi my Nokia BH-902 just arrived and it uses caller id to show on a display, but the Galaxy Tab doesnt push the id only the number.
Any chance to get the caller id?
