Ok so I've done two flashes today and both have come up with the same result, my caller ID shows Unknown name, Unknown number for all calls??
Here is the ICS rom I'm running now but I can't post in that forum because I'm a newb.
Has anyone else seen this yet? Or have I done something wrong? I have searched and can't find anything specific to this phone.
Also, if I go back to the original Gingerbread the numbers come up as they are supposed to.
Sorry, please ignore this... got home and tried with a different number and it's working now?

I'm actually seeing this as well - sort of. When a contact calls, it displays caller ID correctly. When someone not in my contacts calls it shows up as unknown. HOWEVER, my Any.DO app has functionality for missed calls (you can add a missed call to your task list to call later or ignore) and when that pops up I see the phone number of who called.
Weird...
when you go home, you probably connect to your home wi-fi. the app only works and does a "reverse lookup" whenever a data connection is working properly.
however, if the data of location is already stored on your contacts from previous SUCCESSFUL data reverse lookups, your phone will pull that information first if no data connection is available.
Strange... so I flashed the Alien ROM last night and all was good nunbers all worked etc. So just for kicks I've flashed back to the ATT rom and it's not working again.
all numbers just come up as Unknown (no number at all, just the word Unknown). I'm wondering if it simply takes some time for the networks to sync or something?
I'm gonna leave it on for a while and let you know what happens.

Are you using the built-in City ID app? cuz if so, it still requires a DATA connection.!! Wi-fi or Data. Without it, it will return "unknown". UNLESS it has been manually entered and/or retrieved from a previous session....
are you not understanding? I felt like I just repeated myself lol.

Thanks for that... I do have a data connection, both WIFI and 4G/LTE from my provider...It still doesn't work. I have no idea what you mean by a "City ID" app. Is there something I've missed?
I should also mention that this has NOTHING to do with my contacts. ANY call either a number I have in my contacts or a number that is not in my contacts, neither show up at all. When I get a phone call the screen goes black and I see the word UNKNOWN at the top and then the answer or hang up buttons at the bottom.
i am also facing the same issue
Found a reason behind the problem in another forum, have a look here
Its not the perfect solution but it does work and it means you have to call Rogers.

Naw that doesn't work for me, I don't have name display. It does that regardless, unless I spoof tbe caller id and then I work fine. I think rogers has a specific format that they detect for caller id and if it doesn't match then you get nothing.
I can't share how to spoof caller id because I have my VoIP company and so there certain things that I can do which otherwise isn't doable.
Basically the phone that's calling has to format the number in international calling string. +1 999 999 9999
Or the receiving phone has to change it to that since caller id works as a two step thing.

Hi,
I have been using the Xperia custom ROM for quite some time now. I am very happy with the ROM overall but I have a big issue which I had with the original Xperia port as well. I am in UK. I don't get calls from unknown numbers. If I dial from mobile it comes fine. But if I dial from any landline where the number is blocked/private ( I used my office landline ), it doesn't even appear on my Nexus. But I can hear a very small ring on the landline I am dialing from and than it disconnects. On my Nexus S I don't even see a missed call, although it says - Data traffic disabled every time. And if the screen is turned on when I am calling on Nexus S if give the following error on screen- Unfortunately, the process com.android.phone has stopped. When I click OK, it just says Data traffic is disabled .
It might be a ROM specific issue but if someone else has faced the issue and know the resolution please let me know.
Thanks

But i dont want to use and secondary apps for caller. sometimes my phone get struck with caller id app. Rightnow my phone running with kitkat. Thanks in advance
I am aware that Phone numbers get reassigned once they get disconnected or go inactive.
Is there a way/service that will tell you the history behind your phone number?
Like if its been assigned to someone else or who had it before you?
Kinda like a background check for your phone number?
Im trying to locate a lost friend and the phone number I have for him doesn't appear to be his/not working anymore.
Any help is appreciated.
Hi I'm having no luck dealing with net 10, and I'm hoping I can get some assistance from you fellas here at xda . About a week ago my phone stopped making calls, when I try to dial out it says server unavailable. I can make texts when I send them it says sending forever but the text still goes through. I can receive texts , cannot receive calls and my internet works perfect. Net 10 is thoroughly convinced that I have a defective phone and after they have provisioned it 10 times nothing has changed . They had me factory reet, then after that failed has informed me I have a faulty device. So I bought another one and what do you know see problem .
Besides the fact that these people I don't think know anything about what they are talking about I am going nuts.
Here's what I have tried and some info I think may help
I have turned off volte and enhanced calling . Nothing happens .
My phone is the tcl lx
Net 10 Verizon sim
In phone info everything is right but voice network type says unknown
I have never seen this before but in shortcut maker I had 6 separate operator plugins activities. After whiping phone 2 remain the first just crashed second pops up a box saying switching to lte for better voice quility
Thanks I can provide any info if it will help
