Hi,
My HTC HD7 is having a bit of a problem. The caller id does not funtion properly all my contacts have the area code prefix for all the numbers. When I receive a call the caller name is not shown only the number is shown. But if I remove the area code the caller name is shown. But then all the sms (text messages) I receive shows only the Sender's number and not the name. Please let me know if there is a fix for this.
Thx
Well known problem and still without solution.
Probably we'll need someone to hack the registry and we can find the key where the caller ID match the number.
Mine also has the same problem.
same here
Mine is having the same problem... is an HTC issue... I searched everywhere and there's no solution yet available... Can't believe HTC made this error....
Hi,
Any news about fix the caller ID problem on Mango Update ?
mango 7712 still has that problem
Having updated my phone to mango 7712, I´m still having this problem. I wouldn´t say is and HTC problem but a windows Phone 7 bug. It´s hard to believe they did nothing about it.
Turn off international assist under phone settings and your problems will disappear. Once off, power cycle your phone

I have the same problem and turning off international assist won't do anything to help. I've reported this twice to HTC and once to @winphonesupport on twitter (lots of back and forth and made them understand that many people are having this problem and they said they were aware that other people are having this issue and that they will let the right people on the WP team know).. Yeah so hopefully this gets fixed with mango, but im not too optimistic about that.
Have you tried? I had that problem as it adds characters in the numbers, then it does not recognize from the list of contacts. It worked for me, all works now....

I have! i wish it did work! you're in australia which is probably why it works. An htc rep actually called me (i was really surprised) but i was running late for a dinner so i barely heard what he had to say. he was like yeah we have that problem with some countries like lebanon(mine) and iceland and htc is working on it for future phones but not this one or something like that. i was late and couldn't talk so i said ok thanks and hung up.

Dead Diamond users and non Diamond users, can you please help me.
I, and I think not only me, have the following problem:
My phone will not inform me, if I'm on the others people waiting line, example:
I'm (A) calling my friend (B) whois speaking with a (C), and I'm on the (B's) waiting line, but I have not idia about it, cause my Diamond won't inform me about it in any way, but my Nokia or Samsung (with the same operator and the same Simcard) will inform me on the display, that "Call Waiting"
Any one knows a good solution to this? Maybe "CAB" or Reestor tweak?
(I've got this very good explanation of my problem from some one else post)
In my case, when i call someone that is on a call with call waiting activated on my HTC Diamond doesn't "say" anything. On my old Nokia it "says" Waiting.
Another think i noticed is when i receive a diverted call on the old phone says "diverted call" and then put a simbol before the number. On my new phone no information about it is displayed.
Can anyone know if there is any app that can make the phone "smarter" in this case?

If any solution can be found, I'll donate with pleasure
Thanks a lot!
i think this is a problem with all Windows Mobile phones. as even my old i-Mate K-JAM (Wizard) was not able to do these things.
i agree its annoying, but i guess you learn to live without it eventually.
Yes, you right! I'll live without it, but maybe it is possible to edit something in a low level (like AT modem programming, or smothing like this, knew this stuff from iPhone at command),
Maybe some one can do this?
Thanks!
if someone ever figures this one out, i would happily pay for it.
its one of those things that always bothered me about Windows Mobile phones, and i never found a solution for.
So, If some one can do thin work, WE (now ME & pult) start donation
Help us and help the world please

any news on this ??
i'm need the info on the divert call... i have 2 # on my sim and they are redirected between them...
thanks
I agree with all of you,
"Waiting ..." and "Diverted call" are two messages I miss a lot after I moved to Windows Mobile phones ....
Time to time I'm searching for a solution, but nothing ...
I tryed to get solutions from Microsoft ... no answer.
Any news ?
HTC TouchFlo could manage it ?
Regards.
Ok guys.....I can't be the only one this has happened to. For the last week I have been getting somewhat random calls and caller id shows its my number. There are times when I happens right around a phone call but the phone has had root for 6 months...multiple roms flashed and never an issue till now. Running crc1 with cyan 4.0.4 build...themed with community hero. This is the second post about this....does someone know what's happening or how to fix it...thanks
its called someone is spoofing you with a spoof app of some sort heres a website about what its about.
basically youre being pranked
Here's the website
I appeciate the insight but I have that app and as far as I am aware you can't call a number with the same number.....it won't allow it. So I'm pretty sure that's not it.
Umm i dont think you understand completely.
Ok ....now I know its the phone ....noticed a pattern...it seems to do it right after someone calls but only rings a couple of times. And I'm not sure what it is I don't understand.

Say Dave doesn't like Jay and wants to prank call him.
He uses SpoofApp or the equivilant service to call him.
To use this service all you need to do is enter the number you would like to call and the number that you would like to show up on the recievers callerID.
Jay recieves a call from the number that Dave put in.
It could be just about any number and the only way that I know of for sure to tell who it is that's calling you is TrapCall.
Hope that clears it up.
Ya I hear you on that and I have used it......I'm not stupid. This is a phone issue. The calls are comming after a voicemail is left. What could the problem be. I'm not trying to be a jerk but the obivious solution is not allways the right one. Could someone give me an idea.
I agree with you oneyoungjay I have that app to and you can't put the number to call and the number to display at the same time. It will not allow it. I use the app pretty often.
My iPhone used to do this to me on t-mobile a few months ago, just like voicemails sticking, i solved it by leaving myself a voicemail. (and its actually a carrier issue, i believe)
try changing voicemail client to phonefusion for example. If its a carrier issue that should bypass it if not sorry...
Thanks .....ill try that a let you know if it worked.
Hi all. So I have an unlocked Tattoo which I created a goldcard and successfully flashed thanks to the excellent advice from people on this forum.
However, there is one thing that frustrates me about it. And that is the timestamp on SMS messages. There is an update for the HTC Magic which solves this problem but I have been unable to find one for the Tattoo. Does anyone have a solution to this?
Thanks!!
Whats wrong with your timestamp?

without further info, we can't confirm this issue, it could just be your software revision loaded on the device...
Whenever I get an incoming text the timestamp says it is 4 hours earlier than the time I received it. Yet my sent texts have the right timestamp, so my thread is all messed up. All my received texts are at the top and all my sent texts are at the bottom.
I am not sure what details you want but my software version is 1.67.4 on the Rogers network.
What I have been experiencing is that it seems like the incoming timestamp is set somehow by the sender's carrier. Im saying that because I usually receive texts from people on 3 different carriers and only one of them has this problem. So I do not really bother about it.

True true. I've noticed the same. It seems like a problem with the senders operator not setting the correct time.
I would like to know why everytime i recieve a Call my Data Connection broke down. With my old Androids i didn't have that Problem. :-( Is there a possibility to Mod/Hack this so you can be Online and make a Call together?
Another Request is to add some 3G Parameters in build.prop which can be found here at XDA.

I have the exact probelm. Have not found any solutions yet, since it wasn't common to O2x users.
Posted this problem in Modaco, but paul wasn't able to address the issue since he couldn't replicate the problem.
have the same problem than you both. which baseband are you running?
Presently using 1035.21_20110315
Lets hope the new baseband 1035.21_20110405 will solve the problem.
Else I am left with no choice but to send it to the LG service center
This seemed to happen with Nexus S as mentioned in the Nexus S forums. Maybe its an Android problem?
Same prob here.
Didn't have it on my HTC Desire, or SGS, so it must be something with O2x firmware. =/
Example:
When i recieve a call, i got a program who looks up the callers name and adress so i know whos calling before i answer, even if i don't have him/her in my contacts.
With O2x i get an error instead, saying that there's a network error and i don't see who it is.
Annoying =(
Tnx for the heads up on that build.prop addition.
Got my speedtest upto 5.7MBit/s ^_^
Does anyone of you have experienced a low microphone volume/quality in call conversations?
People from the other side of the phone often tell me they cannot hear me... and this is quite
annoying.
I have read something about a noise cancellation problem. Have you the same problem? Any
SW solution to it? How did you manage it?
Thank you
Yeah, I also hear that often. It started happening after the Gingerbread update. It seems HTC decreased the mic sensitivity to fix the echo problem but they probably went a bit too far.
I just got the 2.30.405.1 OTA update 30 mins ago. Let's hope they've fixed this issue and also the wifi sensitivity problem.
Is it a new gingerbread upgrade? I have not received any notification yet!

Nope, it's just a HTC bug fix update. Still waiting for the Gingerbread 2.3.4. According to first comments I've seen the wifi sensitivity problem has now been fixed!
Try the manual update check, that's what I did. If you don't see any updates yet, you'll just have to wait a bit more until HTC's delivery system reaches your region/phone serial number.
I tried the manual update, but the upgrade is still not available. No matter, I'll wait. Happy about wi-fi! Any news about the Mic sensitivity?

Not yet on my part. I've answered three calls today and there were no mic problems, but I've gotten used to the problem, so I always try to position the phone so that the mic is close to my mouth. I'll try to be less careful in the future
I'm also happy to report that the infamous Dialer process has disappeared from the battery usage list, so that problem has been fixed. Dialer was almost always number 2 right after the display on my list. Now it's completely gone!
Mmm, very strange and too bad here in Italy, or better to me, no upgrade is notified or manually reachable yet! Kind of sure anyway the microphone problem will still be present. I haven't read anything on blogs about this type of improvement by the new firmware....

Solved the firmware upgrade problem this way (thanks to HTC
customer service):
*#*#682#*#*
No big change about call quality...
At the moment I'm trying this:
after using the number *#*#4636#*#*, changed
network settings from WSCDM preferred to gsm auto prl
But I've just did this and not sure the problem is gone.
Just to let you know, the phone call is still bad.
I'm from Italy, but the phone was bought on Amazon.co.uk.
My phone model number is S710e, android 2.3.3., firmware is
2.30.405.1, radio module is 20.2808.30.085AU_3805.06.03.03_M
I have these problems for the radio module:
My voice is kind of intermittent from the other side of the phone (who listens me)
I can hear echo of my voice
The other side of the phone can hear its own echo
Sometimes connection is lost
Long time for the call to start
I have tried soft reset, updated firmware, set GSM auto (PRL) as network preference, etc.
No solution? I'm thinking of flashing ROM, radio module and whatever... but if the phone is broken, what about warranty loss?
I don't think there's much to do at the moment. Nothing seems to work. All we can do is wait for the 2.3.4 upgrade and hope that it includes also HTC's own firmware tweaks, especially for the abysmal radio module.
I believe they can further adjust the mic/noise cancellation sensitivity and hopefully solve the issue where people on the other end are constantly complaining about disappearing sound.
I'm pretty sure the radio antenna in the back cover is total crap and obviously can't be fixed with software upgrades. A revised back cover with a better antenna would be nice but I doubt it will ever happen, sigh. I'm sick and tired of having to end calls because people are complaining about intolerable echoing on their end. This can happen, if the signal level is even one bar below full.
My friend got Incredible S and he is having the same issue...
Whenever he calls me his volume is too low despite the fact my call volume is full...
He was concerned about it and today I searched for this issue on google and got directed here.
Is this software issue or hardware?
He got 2.3.3 pre installed..
I really don't know if it's a hardware or software problem.
Since I've read someone never experienced the problem,
it could be hardware.
But, many people who sent back the phone to customer
center, after hardware repair, tell to have the problem, still.
So it could be a software problem, caused by HTC SW
radio module. In this sense, it would be nice to know if
those one who had this problem and rooted their phone
to another UI (cyanogenmod, etc.), or changed
the radio module, were able to solve this problem. In this
case it would be definitely a SW problem.
Really, I don't know what to do... I cannot root my phone
because of the warranty, there is no official good SW solution
and I am not sure if the problem is SW.
Why should I stay with a broken phone, but a good smart
device? People, let's think about that.
We should complain with HTC...
Only 2 members with this issue alarms me of hardware issue... U r lucky to have warranty but my friend's mobile has none.. It would be a shock for him of out turns out hardware issue...
I tried rooting his mobile but Alpharevx didn't work for him and I was not willing, to flash european rom...
I guess I have no choice other than to root it and flash a different radio. .
Will try after a couple of weeks when he comes...
That's bad.
Waiting for news about your flashing the device.
For the moment I have to wait, so I will not send back my
phone.
I'm leaving for holidays and I need to use my device as GPS
navigator...

no news, i am facing same problems with the mic even after latest update
On another support forum (http://androidforums.com/htc-incredible-s/374601-call-problem-echo-other-end.html),
other users noticed the same problem and told me this problem is particularly frequent with Vodafone networks and specific numbers.
I experimented the problem too with Vodafone mobile operator and now I'm trying with Wind. Conversations seem to be better, but I'm still in the testing phase.
What about you? Do you have Vodafone too?
Let me know.

Hey ! that sounds much true. Infact my Friend's mobile had this Low volume Prob I mentioned previously but yesterday he called me and the sound was fine from his side. Infact he changed his network 2 weeks back. I guess it has problem with some networks...
It's a HTC thing.
All HTC phones have bad microphones, crappy speakers and use codecs from the '90s.
