Caller ID issue!

Can someone tell me how to show my contacts when receiving an incoming call without the area code?
Thanks
Chink

I'll second that query!
I have my contacts progreammed with country code ie +61 3 99999999
In-country calls come in as 03 99999999 so the contact is not displayed
Silly!
Ah - try this
Use a registry editor and go to HKCU\Control Panel\Phone\CalIidMatch value is by default 8, i.e 8 Digits. Change that to 7 and soft reset

Thanks Robinbb
But can you guide me thru step by step please. Is that a software i need to download and if so where can i get it?
Thanks
Dino

You will be prompted for your choice of 3 options:
everyone

only to contacts

Well That was fast.Thank you so much,Now while you are there,I also have found that if I receive a text from someone not in my contact list,The only way I seem to be able to add them to my contact list is to dial their number and hang up quick, and then I have the option to add it,I bet you know better

Not entirely sure of the exact details but if you open the txt message and press and hold on the number you should get an option to save that number to contacts.

Hi
Well thanks again,I am sure I did that, which is what made it start to dial, will try it next time to see if it was finger trouble my end
Tis a nice handset,I am fine with windows,just need to get to know the touch screen system better,
Many thanks for your help,seems I have a lot of reading ahead

[Q] Problem with sending SMS and SMSC setting on Froyo

Hi all,
I tried to research my problem but I can not find any help.
Here is what I found by my experiment for this weekend.
Problem: On Froyo ROMs, I can receive SMS but CAN NOT send sms. MMS and 3g Internet is working fine as well as voice call.
Question: How do I set SMSC on Froyo, or is there way to fix this?
My findings after experiments:
1. Everytime I flash, regardless the types of a Rom wheather they are modified or origianl or Froyo or Eclair I can not send sms but able to receive. All the other functions of 3G internet and mms seems to be fine after APN setting.
2. On Eclair and Froyo I have tried type *#*#4636#*#* and went to phone info section, typed the SMSC number (that is 0430004010, I'm in Australia using Three hutchison ) pressed update and refreshed but everytime if i going back to testing page, the Input section is empty -> some reason the SMSC number does not get saved. I tried put +61430004010, then it will tell me "error update" whereas the 0430004010 will not show me any message
3. On Eclair, Message -> setting -> Text Message (SMS) Setting has " Message Server" section. I typed +61430004010 and then all of the Roms able to send SMS. This was the fix for my problem on Eclair.
HOWEVER, on Froyo, some reason this section is not available. As there are only two section available "Delivery reports" and " Manage SIM card messages"
4. I have typed **5005*7672*+61430004010# on phone number pad, code rejected...
I have searched the this forum and other forums too.. No one came up with solution apart from SMSC number. But it seems to me that I can't save the number if I go testing page by typing *#*#4636#*#*. Is there other ways to do this ? or have I done something stupid and missed obvious mistake (as usual ) ???
Any thoughts or comments I would really appreciate
Cheers

I have had the same problem, I tried to put it back to default setting, it works
Or go to drakaz forum, you can find help. Good luck!

Could not send SMS on Froyo
Hi!
I have M110S, just updated to Froyo (SL28), and couldn't send sms. The sms center number is correct (checked via SKT Admin menu), and SOMETIMES I could sent from 1 to 4 messages, but no more. I suppose it's possible right after writing the SMSC number, but not every time. Does anybody have the solution?
Have a root, if needed. It was no problems with Android 2.1 before.
Thanks!
BR, Yan.

I have the same problem. I am on XWJS3. Update error and no possibility to send sms

solution from www google com/support/forum/p/Google+Mobile/thread?tid=078232a74455bbf0&hl=en
(sorry, xda don't let me to post links)
Code:
OK, I managed to fix this. I'll post the answer because this was buried deep and is a pain.
Answer is here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-926771.html
The relevant text is below. One thing I'd say is that the link is a bit vague on how to do the conversion. You need to put your SMSC number in the page, clear the rest of the info and press convert. You then need to ignore the numbers after 11.
For example, my vodafone +447785016005 goes to 0791447758100650110000910000AA00, which shortens to 079144775810065011. Go to the *#*#4636#*#* menu and put that in SMSC and hit update. Messages now send!!!. Hopefully I can save someone else the grief I've had all day...
"
to update the SMSC in android,
the number first need to be encoded
please use below url to encode the SMSC
http://www.twit88.com/home/utility/sms-pdu-encode-decode
for example, if your SMSC is number is +4531300000,
after encode, it is 0691541303000011
put this in the info page, and it will work.

Hey, so I've been having the same problem with my shinny new stock LG G2x that I recieved as an easter present. I realize that its not the same phone as in the thread, and its not rooted, but its still running 2.2.2 Android so I assumed the ideology would be the same, I'm on a foreign exchange in Italy and I've been usin TIM (smsc +393359609600) and I've been having no luck using the converted PDU or just putting in the number using the *#*#4636#*#* or the **5005*7672*[number] methods in my phone settings when I click refresh next to the smsc a PDU number comes up, 002B003300390033003300350039003600300039003600300030, in the text box, so I'm assuming my phone needs a PDU number for the smsc, but what number I still don't know and was hoping you could help.

For me, the much simpler and robust solution using AT commands worked flawlessly.
There is AT+CSCA command which does exactly this: setting SMS service number. Example usage:
Code:
AT+CSCA?
+CMS ERROR: 330
AT+CSCA="+380910440601",145
OK
AT+CSCA?
+CSCA: "+380910440601", 145
OK
This should work on virtually every device, not nesessarily Android one. You just need to connect to its console in modem mode, as usual with all AT commands.

I would like to do this, but how do you "connect to its console in modem mode"? I'm using a Galaxy Nexus.

[Q] SMS display issue

Hi everyone!
There is my issue with message display on my HTC TD2:
In message tab, displaying time for new message is too long (about 3 seconds) after turning to "as read". I often take a quick look at new SMS, so that, the messages which I have read are still display as unread. Later, if there are some new SMS coming, you have no idea exact how many of them are new SMS.
Therefore, I just want to look at the new message in 1 second, then the message should change into "as read".
Is there any way to to that? Pls help!
Thank you very much

Some basics are missed:
Wich ROM exactly you are using?

Please post your question along with the ROM information (Stock ROM & Version or Custom ROM - Name & Version etc...) so that others will know what ROM is causing the issue and can help you?
Thanks.

Hi,
I found this from Device Information, is it enough?
ROM version: 2.17.707.1 (68613) WWE
Thank you!

I would like to explain a a bit more about my issue:
This above issue is not a problem of HTC phone. I only want to turn the message to "as read" after viewing for 1 second instead of the default 3 seconds.
So is there anywhere to change the setting?
Thanks

[Q] Anyone else having issues with entering IMEI and MAC on Samsung Promo site?

Ive been trying to get my phones information entered on the Samsung trade in promo site but it keeps telling me my IMEI and/or MAC is incorrect (which I checked a million times and is correct). I was curious if anyone has been able to submit the documents online successfully.

Try to add the IMEI SV number - basically the whole number you see after dialing *#06#.

I couldn't get it to work either. I mailed the documents anyway along with a screenshot of the imei and mac address. I don't think there'll be too much of an issue.

This is a [Q] - so why was it not posted in the Q&A section? I'm not sure, but it's moved there now. Please post in the correct sections.
Thanks.

isn't better to just wait til it's officially released to submit the rebate?
