Let's say I have contact name XYZ company. Mr. A ( phone number ), Mr. B ( phone number ) and Mr. C ( phone number ) are under XYZ company.
When I receive the phone call from XYZ company's Mr. A, caller id only display as XYZ company and phone number. Cannot see who's calling from that company. How to make the person's name appear on caller id screen ?? Is there any apps to solve this problem ??
I am now only using as adding 3 separate contact names for 3 different persons for the same company and that make my contact list huge.
I'm using exDialer and stock dialer.
Many Thanks

Any one having my problem:
My Diamond is not recongnizing phone numbers from my contact or basically the caller ID is not working for some reason. Help - this is really annoying......
Thanks in advance
I didn't receive my diamond yet but from previous experience with some phones it s a matter of recognizing the number of digits in a phone which is country dependent.... like the iphone for exemple ... i had a terrible experience with that ... I had to put for each contact two numbers , one with the country code (+212 .....) and a second without... that way he could recognize the incoming caller ID in both calls and sms....
you should try doing that and tell us if it works!!!
By default it matches on the last 8 digits of the phone number. If phone numbers are less than 8 digits in your country then it may not work properly.
You can use advanced config to edit the number of digits.
It would help to find related issues on this forum, in stead of opening new topics. Every day a full new page (or more) of new topics appear, lots of which are duplicates.

Supplying people with more information would also help to solve the problem easier. Which ROM, what exactly happens and when... etc.
Hi,
I have several contacts that have numbers containing P (the pause), mainly for dialing through voip services providing cheap international calls such as dialnow.com or nonoh.net who provide a landline number that you can call from your mobile
The problem is that the phone does not match the full number with the contact, it only matches the first part up to the P. What I mean is, I have multiple numbers starting with the same landline, then P, then their number, like so:
0123453335P078127493041# - Foo Bar
0123453335P078924134212# - Joe Doe
0123453335P...
You get the picture. What happens is that the phone always identifies any of those numbers, regardless of which I call, only as "Foo Bar" (or which ever is first in the contacts list). It's quite annoying as it gets registered as Foo Bar everywhere: e.g. in the call history, while the call is in progress etc and only the first part of the number is displayed. Another problem is that if I use this kind of contact as a favorite in the People page in TouchFLO 3D, and I try to call it straight from the People page, then only the landline number is dialed, the part with P and the rest of the number is not sent at all ...
I would like it to be able to do a full match on the number, not just the first part up to P, so that it appears correctly in the call history, during call and to be able to call such a number from the People page in TouchFLO 3D.
Any fix for this?
Cheers
bump?
anyone has any idea of what I could try at least?
would a different dialer work? anything?
so many replies ...
I have found a workaround myself ... if you replace the P with a , (comma) then you will get a full match; maybe someone else wants that behaviour.
I have the same problem but no luck with comma...
What have you done? one number with p and the other with comma? that should work but if we have more than 2 ...
By the number of answers you got... i'm sure it will be complicated to solve this one
I solved this problem by sticking a space before the p
P works for me. I use it with a prefix number for 0800 numbers so that the call is part of my free mins.
Just spotted that you use a capital P. I use a small p. Might make a difference.
Thanks everyone.. it looks like that this depends on the dialler program used.
For me that solutions were not working but then I've updated my ROM (with new dialer) and it started to work.
Thanks a lot.
as soon as the call connects the stored name number appears
not a major headache but id like to know who im speaking to b4 i answer it
anyone help on this one cheersy alll ??
If you would like to see picture comes with the contact, or big pic in the caller ID, u can use Inesoft phone (not free) , or other programs...
ideally a name would help ive got that many numbers stored i cant remember them all is there another option to inesoft??
i was kinda hoping it would be say sony ericsson based and show you both names and numbers whilst receiving a call but it does'nt
Hi,
Coming form the WM platform I got used to a program called smsdrfix. When you receive a sms message that contains a phone number of a person you have in your contacts the number is replaced with the contact name by this program. This is very useful when your carrier sends "You missed a call" messages with phone numbers in them, its a real pain in the ass to find the contact by number.
Is there any similar app for android ?
Id be glad to pay a few euro if there was....

Flashed to a couple of the ICS custom roms none of them will show the callers country code. It totally destroyed my contact caller id cause all my calls have country code infront. How do I get it to display the callers country code when they dial in?

go google play market and try install other dialer.
RocketDial & exDialer are the famous one
dialer will change incoming calls too?
mine shows numbers in a weird format
tried both the exdialer / rock dialer and go dialer. Set them to default dialer but still no country code caller ID. The GB rom from rocket / stock / checked all show country code when someone dials in.
