incoming call - MDA shows only number not contact name - General Topics

Hello everyone, got this problem since I had MDA II, now I have MDA Compact and the problem still remains:
SOMETIMES, when I have an incoming call, there is only number showed, even if the contact is saved in my contacts. The name appears after a few seconds sometimes, sometimes after answering the phone, but sometimes is visible only after hanging the call up in call history. It's like if MDA is too busy to find the matching name and show it :?
I have about 350 items in contacts and approx. 3 records at each item.
Does anyone has any solution?
Thanks a lot in advance.

Happened to me on the XDA2 and now on XDA2i from time to time.
I personally think the caller ID software they've licenced on the XDA is a pile of [email protected], but there you go.
Cheers

Take notes during a call in WM6 SP...

Hi guys!
I've got Windows Mobile 6 smartphone device and I'd like to explain my problem hoping you guys can give me a good solution:
I'm talking with someone and during a call I have to pin a number or a street or something else my ffriend is talking about. Well, in case of number, I just tryed to write the number during a call and I see that the number is display in the screen as all my old devices. When I terminate the call, the number I wrote is cleaned up and I have no way to get it back in order to store it in a contact or in a note.
How is it possible to take a note during a call in a simple way?

Time to bring the call divert notification back to table...

When I receive a call to a number that has been diverted to my number, it doesn’t show any indication that it’s coming to the diverted number. Nokia phones have this feature, so im thinking that the smart people here at XDA shouldn’t have any problem on getting this feature to WM6 devices?
*Bump it up*
UP! Someone please comment on the issue in hand...
Mee too looking out for this
M having the same problem. The WM device doesn't show any indication for an incoming diverted call..
Any solution yet ?

See contacts name when an SMS arrives / HTC S710 / WM6

Hi
I have a question, I have a HTC S710 running WM6. When I get an SMS
instead of showing the name of the person that sent it, it shows the
number even I have the contact stored. What I figured is that the
stored number is XXX-XXXX and the SMS comes from +506 XXXXXXX.
In other phones Ive had (Nokia, Sony Ericsson) when an SMS comes from
that number, it does associate it with the contact name.
Any ideas on how to get this done on the HTC S710?
Thanks in advance,
Dan
I don't see anything else than modify the whole phonebook and put +506 (or a needed one) at the beginning of all your numbers. Maybe all your phones were able to display correct number, but I'm afraid that WM can't do it
Nokia only compares the last 7 digits from the right.
I think it's also depends on the network you are connected to.
that's what someone told me anyway so don't take my word from it... here we don't have that problem (even if the number is sored without +972 it still show the name of the contact when SMS arrives).

Vario IV and callerID

All,
Just got my new VarioIV and callerID is not working i.e. when someone rings who is also in my phonebook their name and number is not displayed. The phone display unknown caller and the number.
If the same person sends me a text message their name is displayed. Anyone else experiencing this?
After some investigation I have discovered this phone does not like international numbers in the format of +XX
If I have a number in the format of 07125 123456 callerID with name works.
If I have a number in the format of +447125 123456 callerID does not work but when I get a text the person name is displayed.
Is this by design? My Kasier, Hermes and Blue Angel always worked with +XX numbers.
Thanks
Have a look in this thread:

Quite why the phone was released with this problem is beyond me.

I totally agree, why I need to use a 3rd party software to fix the problem is totally unacceptable. T-Mobile should address this problem, i will give their customer support a ring.
Thanks

Hello I tried using Schaps Adv Config and changed the trailing numbers to 9 and indeed callerID now works BUT this seems to break text messages i.e. when someone sends me text i get no notification on my phone. This is crazy, I have spoken with t-mob who will reset my profile but i have a feeling this is a Vario IV rom problem.
Thanks

[solved] Problem with Contacts and International Country Codes

So Ive been using my HTC Ozone (6.5 Standard, 3VO rom) for a while in israel, and the way the cellular network works is as follows:
country code is +972
the number that shows up on an incoming call is 052-555-5555.
The number that shows up on an incoming text is +972-52-555-5555.
The number that shows up on an outgoing call when dialing without the country code (aka 052-555-5555) is +972-052-555-5555.
All of these differences mean that if I have a number saved in the contact manager (in only one of the above forms), it isnt displayed 2/3rds of the time. If i send a text to ME(052-555-5555), the reply comes back from an unsaved number, in a new thread is +972-52-555-5555.
Is there a way for me to just save the base number (052-555-5555), and have the phone's contact manager realize that its the same number is the +92 equivalent? My current workround is saving all the forms of a number to a contact, but 1. its tedium to go through all my contacts and do this, and 2. you can only save so many numbers to a contact, which means im screwed if the contact has two different numbers.
I see all these fields in the "current country" setting, but I have no idea what they mean, or if that is even the solution.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
hey , i got the same problem on my Omnia 2 with windows mobile version 6.5
The local incoming call won't show the country code, and sms does the opposite way.
check through all my phone setting, can not find any related option for this.
Thanks for anyone can provide a resolution.
i just resolved my problem. hope this way can help you as well.
get a regedit software on your windows mobile phone.
go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER/ControlPanel/Phone
under it, you should able to see a key name "CallIdMatch", change the value to maybe 8 or 9, which means it will match the last 8 or 9 numbers for each incoming call or sms. (use decimal) after the changing, reboot your phone.
Wow, it worked!!
Thanks a lot man!
thanks for the tip jason_ma!
i was also wondering about it.
Anyone know how to edit CalIidMatch an an HTC hero
