My N1 runs on CM 5.0.6 rom. Here is what happening. If I dial phone number not from my contact list and later decide to add to contacts; the contact will be listed in the call log tab (instead of the phone number there will be an assigned name), however the same contact will not be found under the contacts tab.
How to add this to the contacts?

I had this problem ages ago with my c500 and fixed it but cannot fix it with my diamond.
When a person calls - their name (and pic) appears as the person calling. Yet for 1 number only (it happens to be my gf) it comes up as the number only - and once the call is over it says 'number is not in contacts - would you like to add it'
I thought the fix would be to have both style of numbers (with +44 and without) in the various contact fields but to no joy.
It's annoying in the fact that it works for every other contact just not her! (maybe it's a sign!)
Any clues?
Long shot
Try this.. (assuming that you sync your phone with outlook)
Delete the contact from the diamond.
Edit the contact in Outlook with the contact numbers and assign a pic in Outlook itself.
Sync
See if this works.
I've tried it - still no joy. I've checked to see if any other number exists in the phone/outlook that is too similar but I can't see one. I'd read somewhere that it uses the first 7 digits for caller id - and that number is relatively unique.
hmmm
While we are trying stuff out
Delete the contact from the diamond, anyway. In the call list / history.. you should have the a received call from your gf's number.
Save it from there. Then assign a pic.
Let's see if that works.
Hi
I'm trying to add a mail address from a received mail to an "old" contact; when I tap on the address i can choose between "Send email" or "Save in contacts", but the save options let me just save it as a NEW contact.
Same thing happens when I try to add a number from an SMS to an old contact...
Is this a bug? Is there a fix?
Thanks!!!!
Does it work if you turn off TF3D?
Hi!
Annoys me as well, I guess that this is one of the great features that the designers over at HTC came up with.
Actually you can do it for SMSs from "unknown" numbers, by tapping the SMS (from a unsigned number) in the TouchFlo SMS tab you will get a contact page for that phone number. If you then slide the tab selector left to the contact card icon, you can hit save at the right soft button. Then the contacts list will open and you can choose an existing contact to add the number to, and even choose what kind of number this is (work, office, private, etc)
The problem is that if you hit an email from the TouchFlo email tab the regular winmo messages application is launched instead of the TouchFlo messages application used for SMS.
The ideal situation would be that emails where handled in the same way as SMSs

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
paalkr, you are right, in this way you can save sms number to existing contact... Thanks, it's a good workaround!
I hope someone will find a "fix" for email addressess, too....
so i delete #'s i no longer need out of my phonebook but when i go thru my phonebook from handcent or messanger - the phone # still shows up. Is there some sort of secondary book the program is looking in when you want to send an SMS/MMS?
If they are on your friends list on facebook and they have their number posted it will do this. Otherwise I'm not sure why it would.
no - my fB isnt set to sync nor are the numbers im talking about even on my Fb friends list...
its numbers i've once added, then i went thru and deleted old #'s i dont call so theyre not longer in my phonebook but when i go to text message someone, it shows up in my "text phonebook"
this is very interesting. perhaps its related to the "wrong recipient" thread over in the general forum. its gotta be a bug no matter what, right?
this happened to me a while back when I tried to delete my ex.
what worked for me was when I logged into my google account (i logged into voice)
and clicked contacts, and deleted her from there. that worked for me, but idk.
Try to check whether you have included the respective folder/label of contacts in your contact list. Perhaps the messaging app searches through all contacts regardless of label.
Contact list will only show those contacts that have the labels you have chosen. Perhaps the deleted contacts got moved to a [Trash] label?
if I want to send a SMS there is a comma before the phone number and so it's not possible to send the SMS
It looks like this ,+49174...
If I get a SMS from such a person there is also a comma before.
this is only at some contacts.
The other contacts look like this Max Mustermann <+49174...>
I sync my contacts with the google account,
I also tried to delete the contact and add a new contact with new Name but the same number. The problem stays the same.
I'm running CM 7.0.3.
It seams nobody has this Problem
At 1 of 5 clicks at the SMS symbol the name is shown like this "Last Name, First Name" <+49174....>. Normally it should look like this First Name Last Name <+49174...>.
Can anybody help me. This is driving me crazy.
isch
[EDIT]I've deleted the mmssms.db because there was a lot of deleted sms in the database with wrong numbers[/EDIT]
i have the same problem all of a sudden. any resolutions found?
In my contacts list, I can see just the names.
Until now, I couldn`t find any option to show phone numbers under contact names in the contacts list.
But! Yesterday I updated phone software to v10c from v10b. After I updated, I openend contacts list and
saw phone numbers under contact names in the list. But when I opened contacts again numbers was disseapeared. I don`t think it was a dream
I am sure I saw it. Can someone tell me what is going on with my phone? Is there anyway to show phone numbers under contact names in the contact list? Thanks.
Update: I can see the phone numbers under names when I open contacts from sms messaging. But when I open contacts from Home, I can`t see the phone numbers under names on the list! Weird!
