Caller name does not display

I have just purchase the above PDA (ROM:1.56.721.3 dated 29.08.07) with radio version 1.27.2.11. When I receive a local call from contact, the name of the caller does is not displayed. Only the phone number (7 digits). However, when I receive an SMS, the name of the same caller is displayed. If I remove the country code in the contact number and leave the local number only, then the name of the caller is displayed. In that case, the name is not displayed when I receive and SMS from that contact. Can you please help?

found this on expansys forum : Can you test it and let us know?
I also have found the solution to my problem and it works great. Mine was not due to Contact duplicates, but rather due to a registry setting.
If duplicate contacts are not your problem, all you need to do is get a Registry editor and change the folling entry from an 8 to a 7.
Change the following registry key value to 7 -- HKEYCurrentUser\Control Panel\Phone\CalIidMatch. Restart your pda. That should fix it.
(note: in the regedit, don't click the + next to phone folder, click the the phone folder itself)
This is the link to the the forum thread I found this solution on. https://forums.microsoft.com/WindowsMobile/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=2302918&SiteID=65

Some answers, cause I'm a nice guy :
1- No, without if you have to use HardSPL hacked before.
2- Yes, go to your phone settings.
3- By pressing and holding the hang-up button.
Etc ...

Thanks again for your fast replies!
For Keylock, when i hold and press tha hangup button, it will go to silent & vibrate mode instead...

2 phone related issues

1. is there any option/tweak to have contacts saved in phone memory automatically saved in the sim card too ? so much rom flashing gave me a pain in the but after loosing several phone numbers (p.s. automatically save new number to contacts doesn't work too .. maybe cause i use the standard winmobile dialer ?)
2. does the diamond have the basic "redirect calls" option? i've looked for it in settings > phone > services but i can't find it
p.s. searched the forum but didn't find anything related

1. an alternative is a program call PPCPimbackup (free)which will back up all your contacts/sms/call logs/appoinments/tasks/. search google for it.

2. try in Call Forwarding

LED flash for new email?

I can't get the LED to flash for new email messages. The option is greyed out in the Notifications tab of Sounds & Notifications. I've also tried Flexmail, which has its own event called "Flexmail New per Message." The checkbox for flashing the LED is selectable for that event, but the LED still does not flash.
Anyone else have this problem?
Bell Mobility Touch Diamond
TouchFLO 3D disabled (using regular Today screen)
ROM version: 1.13.666.7
Radio: 1.04.02V

try the led-sound-fix.cab . after install, you'll be able to set led signal for e-mail and even unlimited time settings for led-signal for new events like new text message etc. ..

I installed the .CAB file, which did unlock the checkbox for flashing the LED for email messages. But, still no LED flash for new messages in Flexmail
Do you know what the .CAB file does? Is it a registry hack, perhaps something that I could adjust for Flexmail?

Can´t send SMS ??

Hi, I had my HTC DT2 for a week now, and in the weekend when i recived a sms and should answer the sms a box came up with "can´t send sms" Have tried switching on/off different things but can´t still send sms. I switch my sim card to a regular gsm phone and it worked perfect, so can some one help me !!

I think the problem is, that outlook saves the contacts with a + and a space between the prefix and the number.. e.g "+49 69123456". try to delete a contact and add this person again with your device and try again.

I have changed my numbers from +46707.....
to 0046707... and just 0707..... no success ! I can receive sms, but not send !!

I have not get my contacts from outlook, they where saved on my simcard and exported when i put it in my HTC TD2, and i can call the numbers, so just why sms? I have downloaded 2pch ring tones from a webpage, could there be some sort of virus ?? I have now deleted the 2 ring tones, but the issue remains.

You need a few settings in your phone to be able to send sms. I have a swedish device, and I guess yours is too? Anyway, I'm not sure what those settings are called in english, so I'll guide you in swedish too. =)
The first is the number to your "SMSC":
Settings - Phone - top thing... "service"? and then SMS
Inställningar - Telefon - Telefontjänster - Röstmeddelanden och SMS
Tele2 is my provider, so I'll have +46707990001 as my SMSC (SMS-servicecenter), check with your provider what number you should have there
Second setting is under advanced network(?)
Settings - Connections - Advanced... - SMS-service
Inställningar - (Mer) - Anslutningar - Avancerat nätverk - SMS-tjänst
I'm not sure if you need to change this, but try set it to only GSM.
Hope that'll work.

had the same problem, ensure that the mobile phone number you are try to message is saved under mobile number in the contact. If it is saved as work number or something else you will have problems sending sms's don't know why but that's how i solved my problem.
