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?

+(country code) (number) does not work with Softbank in Japan

Hi all,
I am sure I am not the first one with this problem, but I could not find any posts via the search.
I recently moved to Japan, and of course took my european Touch Pro (GSM/UMTS).
My company provided me a Softbank USIM card (with a low end standard phone which is good for nothing other than making calls).
Of course I put the USIM into my TP, as I can sync my business contacts to it using active sync (which is obvuiously not possible with the low end phone with came with the USIm card).
Now I am facing the problem, that Softbank in Japan seems not to support "+" infront of country code, so if I dial a number sync with international format (e.g. +49 511 7788855), I end up getting some announcement from Softbank, that my call could not be progressed.
After playing around, I found out I need to dial 010 49 511 7788855 to get through.
Of course I have no interest in manually changing all my synced contacts to this format, especially as it will not work as soon as I leave Japan for a business trip.
The next problem is, that for dialing local Japanese numbers (contry code +81), not even the 010 prefix does the trick. In case of local numbers I really have to dial without any country code like:
080 3456789 works
010 81 80 3456789 does not work
+81 80 3456789 does not work
As you can imagine, this situation is everything else but satisfying.
No wI am looking for any kind of propper solution (which does not include entering three different formats of phone numbers for each of my contacts).
I hoped the would be a small program that can automatically replace "+" by "010" and "+81" by "0".
If I rember correctly, I had a similar option in one of my previous HTC phones, but can not rember, which software was offering it, and can not find any similar option in my current TP ROM.
Anyone has an idea how to solve this?
Thanks and regards,

Check under Start > Settings > Phone > Services and see if you have a Plus Code Dialing option. If so, you should be able to choose Get Settings and change the code accordingly.
010 is only for international dialing, so local numbers should be stored as local numbers without "+".

Thanks, but in settings -> phone -> services I only have:
call barring
caller id
call forwarding
call waiting
voice mail and text messages
Regarding local phone numbers:
The problem is, that I sync my phone with our company exchange address book. The phone number format is stadard with +country code local number, I can not change that.
I mean, in Europe it is no problem to dial a number with the country code of the country you are currently in. The call will still get through.
I can not understand why Japan (or at least Softbank) does not support the same.

SoftBank (or other japanese mobile companies) simply DO NOT support this, for the reasons only they know. Its too bad, i am also from europe, and that + dialing is really benri thing. wherever you go, you dail your contacts exactly the same way, but not in japan.
Its plain STUPID if you ask me.

of course it is stupid, but I doubt the japanese mobile phone provider will change it when I complain to them.
It should be easier to find a work around.
As I said, there was an option or software in one of my previous HTC devices, where I could choose to replace + by 00.
That makes me think the + could also be replaced by 010, no?

The solution is called MagiCall.
Works perfectly.

[Q] HTC WP7 Caller ID doesnt work, country code issue

I have a big problem with my newly bought HTC Trophy. The caller ID does not seem to work correctly. All my contacts have the country code prefix for all the numbers (+47 or 0047 here in Norway). When I receive a call the caller name is not shown, only the number. But if I remove the country code, the caller name is shown. But then all the text messages I receive, shows only the senders number and not the name. How do i fix this?? This is a big problem for me.
I've tried switching the Internation assist on, no good. Please help

I was going to say post in Microsoft answers but i see you already have lol

Hehe Yes I have, and apparently there's a lot of issues with this from other countries as well. This is such a fundamental thing to be working so I'm suprised Microsoft doesnt have an offical saying in this..
For now, I cannot use my phone, I REALLY have to be able to know who's calling before I decide if I gonna answer or not..
Stupid MS, apart from this I'm actually very happy with the my first WP7 device.

use the callerid fix
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Phone]
"CallIDMatch"=dword:7
where the dword is the number of digits in your phone number, less the country code
eg, singapore uses 8 digits, +6512345678, so it's
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Phone]
"CallIDMatch"=dword:8

Same HTC 7 Mozart user here in Malaysia, doesn't have the called ID issue...
The count should be like this:
+60
123456789
so, 9 should work for you, remember to restart your phone after the reg applied.

[Q] Cannot read USSD messages

hello,
1st, sorry to bother with a new thread (as per the video)
2nd, i have just got an Acer neotouch S200, i like it, but i have two problems so far. (i live in Cairo, Egypt, and this phone uses the Etisalat network)
1) i cant read the service messages that are sent from my service provider (it sends me cost details of calls, remaining balance..etc), and it is currently displayed as a USSD type with the same notification every time " USSD Transmission Ended ".
i found a USSD type changer in the settings, but it has only 4 versions, none of them worked, i tried
is there a way to read these messages normally?
2) is there a way to switch last name/first name in the phone book? because it displays last name 1st, and we do not use that system here in Egypt.
the system currently used is EN-AR 1.003d
the CPU is a QUALCOMM, type QSD8250
thank you in advance for your time, hopefully i`ll get an answer..

Question Got a call from "None" today, weird happenings

I cant find where to post this, this website changed so much, but it was on my new s22 ultra so....
I got a call from "NONE" the 'number' beneath it was "NN".
No voice on the other side, and I attempted to called back. Then my phone popped up a little message near the bottom of the screen... "USSD Code Running."
It kinda freaked me out. What does that mean?

Do a Google search on "USSD Code Running". A lot of info comes up.

oh my...
Which code was it?

I've seen this kind of behavior when I've had the phone in my front pocket, and I happened to be sweating. The sweat carried the electrical signals in my skin through the pocket liner (I'm no scientist, just my running theory) to the screen and thus, randomly unleashing all sorts of weird mayhem and shenanigans.
It's either that or gremlins.........

Happened again, check the recording

Probably just a harmless rootkit...
For whatever reason it's probably just the way that phone responds to some unknown numbers with no caller ID. I block unknown numbers, try that.

Freaky.
Can you block the call?
I don't call back unknown numbers.
Off topic -
Noticed that Samsung added a feature in Samsung Messaging that allows users to block e-mail messages.

its an Aliens

It is mostly likely a SPAM caller. There are automatic dialing apps that can either spoof a number, or completely hide the number, which makes it difficult to block.
I'm have Verizon and it has a Call Filter app. Check with your provider if it has a call filter app. You can also find third party call filtering apps.
Unfortunately, dealing with SPAM and scam calls is a game of Wack-a-mole.

It just dialed NN corresponding to 66 which triggered a USSD code.

Yeah...don't call those kinds of numbers back. If something like that comes up, or you get a blocked number. Let it go to voicemail. If they leave a voicemail, fine. If not, don't call it back.
It is possible someone was trying to run a Smishing scam on you. With the aim to hijack your SIM and take over your phone service account. Depending on your carrier, the USSD code could trigger your device to do something you don't want it to do.

I do it short and quick :
The mobile Phone number of your simcard
Has now call forwarding active to the Hackers Server (ussd MUST bei activated by the victim/target. Hacker need the victim to call a 10 Digits number that will Route to His Server)
Its a curently Well known Hack ... (Thus Person was smart enough to hide His 10 Digits number ... Well played good trap)
What the attacker wants... example :
Get into all your Accounts that are secured with YOUR PHONE NUMBER
...WhatsApp Google ... An E-Mail Account ? Etc etc
So...
I dont believe IT was random Attack.
Someone who know how or someone who ordered this
Knows you ... And need to dive into your privates
(thats childplay Hacking from YouTube nothing unknown or hard to do)
Good News : Sometimes ...someone Else is "the target" .... So the attacker needs informations Out of your device and apps....to get information about the Others real Targets Phone number ... in that Case your device/Accounts need to be Hacked or hooked or jacked ....
If your simcard is older than 5-8 years ...Hmmm
Maybe the simcard still use [email protected] browser. (A Browser placed inside your simcard)
Get rid of such a simcard too. Better Sirius lee
Change ur simcard Phone number for ur savety.
But
do it by EVEN changing the mobile Network Provider. (Best in Case If u have an old jackable simcard)
Sad fact : If the Hacker has enough informations from your simcard u need to Change the Provider. Because ... Your Provider maybe gives u a Brand new simcard ... With a new number that u ordered (the Service to Change Phone number to a new one) ... But ... The new number ist the only Thing what Changed all other leaked informations will stay the same as an act of keeping your customer number in the customer Care systems.
U need new customer number or Change the Provider + new number
My Tip: Use a Landphone number as a WhatsApp number ^^ need to recieve calls to activate the new WhatsApp Account so No Premium SMS Hack possible.... its More save
And ... U can start new the new start is : never leak ur simcards original mobile Phone number. Not in those days. Use the original simcard Phone number to Order pizza or a taxi. Give IT to No one and u dont need to Clean everything... Like u need to do NOW

Jupp thats so obvious ... The trap was better than call the target and please the Person to dial the number that activates the call forwarding Code that waits on a Server
Sim jacking needs the [email protected] Browser in the simcard. Needs to be an old one. Network Provider dont sell new regular simcards with the [email protected]
And dave wouldnt know that an invisible SMS with Codes reached his SMS Inbox :/
No need to call him in that case ... Just send the right prepared SMS and Game over
