Caller ID Telus p4000

Hey Guys,
I have a weird question, i have a p4000 from telus in canada and i DONT have caller ID. Telus charges a ridiculous fee for it.
However when i go the caller id screen i can see the numbers of my calls for like 1/2 a second then it goes blank. This is enough that i can get my last call anyways.
Is there any way to completely unlock this via software that anyone knows??

My Telus bill is about $180/mo. (For my HTC Titan & my wife's RAZR V3c.)
...
*sob*

i think mine is 100 or so for the p4000 and the touch.

I agree on the price gouging. I stripped everything off my P4000 plan months ago. No data, no CID, no voicemail, everything except a 20$/month calling plan. I didn't do this because I don't need the features, quite the contrary. But it's my way of protesting the horrible monopoly we're stuck with in Canada. ****em, they're not getting access to my wallet until they match Sprint's unlimited data, unlimited text and 500 minutes for 30$ a month.

Now, what do you mean by the "caller id screen"? Maybe there is way to hack it but I'm not sure what you're referring to.

I'm referring to the screen you get when you are at the phone screen and you press the button named: Call History
I couldn't find a shot of it in its default state but here is what it looks like if you have the contact photos addon:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}
Any idea's??

LG H918 V20 has no video calling available

When I got my v20 I had the option to video call. But I've noticed lately that the video call button has been grey for a while now and I don't have the option anymore. I'm on VoLTE with wifi calling enabled. I'm also rooted stock with custom TWRP recovery. Anyone know what dependencies that video calling relies on

Thank you

Just wiped to a custom ROM and still no video calling....what is going on?...

My icon on the dialer is also greyed out (rooted stock rom T-Mobile), goin into my contacts allows me to video call people. Unfortunately going into the contacts is how I've always VC friends..so Im unsure what the greyed icon actually does.
Can you verify goin to a particular contact and hitting video still works like me?

Ok now that Im playing around with mine, my daughter who is sittin right next me on a J7 is greyed on my end and my wife who is here too on a S7e is green. Here is whats puzzling...My daughter can still VC me like normal and I can accept, but I cant VC her.
Can you have a party maybe initiate a VC to you?
Extra info: a few times the greyed icon still let me call to my daughter's J7
Even more info: I can regular call my daughter and switch to a VC midcall, even tho she is greyed out.

S8 Text Messaging on At&t

Beating my brain. I have noticed when I receive a lengthy text message it does not show the entire message. It gives me the option to "view all". I have searched the forums and the phone and can't seem to find an option to show the entire text. Is this just and At&t thing or Samsung?

Just an at&t thing need to download a different sms app

I'm with Rogers and I have the same issue.
I'm going to avoid the Samsung apps...seems like the best thing from the issues I'm having...

Thank you all for the quick replies ☺

Hangouts app

But if the other person isn't using Hangouts then it still is horrible

Facebook app does it as well. Most people have it because Facebook forces it via mobile IF you want to message people..

Yaata
Textra
Pulse
Are all amazing texting apps!
Yaata is the most customizable...And my favorite - also has chat-heads, but Android O won't support chat-heads, as of now - But we still have about a year on that.
Textra is the easiest and looks GREAT, and it's been around for a long time (at least since my S3 days, probably longer). Maybe a little smoother than Yaata, but not as many options.
Pulse is new (ish), but seems to have great features.

Facebook messenger is my go to default for sms. Mostly because of the chat heads and integration with all my FB messages

If you use Google photo you can create a link to your video in Google photo then share the link on stock messaging app with a few simple key strokes . Simple for me since I don't need all the bells and whistles from other message apps, nor do I care to familiarize myself with a new message app.

MMS Not Working In Anything Except Samsung Messages

Hi,
I saw many topics about this, but still haven't been able to fix it on my phone. The only app that seems to work with MMS (sending or receiving) that I've tried is Samsung Messages. I've tried Textra and Android Messages (google), neither work. I've been on and off trying to get them to work since I got the phone in April, to no avail or luck. I can't even get the MMS to work when I disable WiFi, so I'm not sure what is going on. My carrier is Verizon. I've also tried setting the MMS mode to Legacy (from the default of System), but that didn't help.
Has anyone had any luck getting this to work? One thing I haven't tried is uninstalling Samsung Messages (or disabling it via BK Disabler) as I'd prefer to not lose all my chat history. I'm not looking for other texting apps, would like to use Google's or Textra over Samsung's.
Thanks in advance!

Check out screen shot. A couple of bucks for premium features. This is my SMS app for my S8+ and Pixel XL.

Just tried, also not working for MMS. Texting works. Not receiving or sending MMS, whether on Legacy or System for the MMS APN type.
Something is definitely blocking other apps from working.

Sorry, it's work perfect at my S8+. Don't now who to help you.

Tried resetting network settings, cleared system cache, disabling Samsung Messages (+ service worker), rebooting, still doesn't work. :/ I'm starting to think it's an issue specific to being on Verizon's network. Could it be something on their end that I need to call in about?

This leaves one more update (it launched with June 2018 patch iirc)?

I got scared when I installed the update and calls had no audio (earpiece nor speaker). A reboot fixed that issue.

Thanks for telling.
Can you tell any changes in firmware or baseband?

Yeah, same old story from them

I don't even have anymore expectations about the updates. The phone is already dead and Android One was basically a scam with no benefits over customized Android distributions.
Fortunatelly next month I will be getting a new phone.

There are network related issues with this update.
As soon as my phone switch to 4G+ (automatically) from 4G then Wi-Fi gets disconnected!! And phone won't try to connect with Wi-Fi. Then if i try to connect with saved Wi-Fi network manually, it won't connect!! If phone switch to 4G (automatically) from 4G+ then phone will connect with WiFi and internet data works as normal. I think 4G+ and WiFi dont work same time. Only one thing can work at a time. Still I'm not able to figure out this issue.
Another issue is, getting no call notification on screen. So one friend told me that he has tried to call me but I wasn't answering, and I was like I haven't received any calls as nothing in call logs too!! Upon this information, I've tried to call my number from another phone and he was right. No call notification appears on the screen, not even missed call log in Phone app. I've figured out solution to this problem tho. Disable WiFi Calling is the current solution. In Google's Phone app go into settings > calling account > select your network name and disable WiFi Calling for that network.
Before installing this update 4G+, Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi Calling everything was working smoothly. I'm afraid if they won't fix these issues then it will be a parmanent problem as not sure how many security updates left as part of Android One.
