[Q] request: app that shows provider for every number at contacts?- Solved! - Android Apps and Games

Hi there,
I hope I didn't miss an identical request somewhere here...
The most people with contracts have free sms and minutes within there own telephone provider net/ telephone network.. I don't know if thats the right translation- in germany for example e-plus, vodafone, telekom, o2...
But unfortunately you don't always know who of your friends belong to which net- or you always forget it after asking them like me...
Would it be possible to make an app which shows at contacts to which provider a cell phone number belongs?
Or is there even an app like this on the market?
It just would be great to know which calls would be free and which one not...
thanks,
ronnbon

[Q]WM6.1 - Only one mobile phone number allowed in contacts?

Hello, everyone! I'm new to this great site, and would like to say thank you for so many inspiring posts.
I encountered a big problem --- perhaps it's been discussed before, but I cannot find the answer after trying to search the forum.
I've been a Symbian UIQ users for years. Just 3 weeks ago I purchased my first WM phone HTC Max4G.
For an elderly newby like me, I must confess that using WinMo 6.1 is a frustrating experience. I have lots of questions, but please allow me to bring up the biggest one:
I realized that in one contact only ONE mobile phone number is allowed....?! It's hard to believe! Many people have several mobile numbers (dont' you?) In UIQ you can add as many numbers as you want, and for all types of numbers.
Would you please tell me how to solve this problem?
Or, is there any program to replace the WM6.1 contacts?
(In UIQ3 there's a fantastic useful program called DreamConnect; worth every penny)
...I bought this new phone only for sake of the cool big 3.8" display. Now I feel desperate.
p.s. English is my 4th foreign language. Please don't mind my grammar.

first of all luck you ... A htc max4g ... i'm sitting drooling here.
as far as your problem goes i believe the reason for that is because you are saving contact to sim and when a contact is saved to sim card only one number is allowed. Now if you created the contact on device memory you will be able to have mutliple numbers, picture, email address, actual address, etc etc. of that one contact under a contact
Hope this helps out.
It just works a bit differnt in WM.
Just like in Outlook itself, you can add a HOME PHONE#, a BUSINESS PHONE#, a MOBILE PHONE#. This has to do with synchronization.
If you need more than 1 MOBILE PHONE#, simply add the contacts main mobile number under MOBILE and all others under OTHER NUMBER's - you still can pick them when writing SMS or when calling, they are just not labeled MOBILE ... that's it.
I hope that helps?
BTW:
If you have 'lots of questions' and you can't find the answers, please combine as many questions as possible in 1 single post - that helps keeping the forum clean and reduces the amount of threads.

This isn't all completely true.....
If i were to enter a number into work i couldn't choose to send a text message to it from the "contacts" page.
Thank you, thesire, junner & joel,
Indeed I save all my contacts on device memory, not on SIM card.
Yes, after synchronization from my UIQ3 phone to Outlook, all the HOME MOBILE numbers are lost... (cry). I have around 1800 contacts and I don't know what to do now.
Yes, these days I try to manually move some numbers from SE P1i to HTC Max. It is soooooo inconvenient not able to distinguish HOME MOBILE# from OFFICE MOBILE#. (scream)
I have to move some mobile# to other cells as you mentioned, but quantity of those cells is also limited, isn't it?
Some of my contacts have more than 10 mobile# since I include numbers of his, his wife, his driver and his secretaries altogether, for whom I don't want to create separate contacts. Symbian has no problem with this at all. Symbian also allows me to add comment after the telephone numbers.
WHY is Outlook & WinMo so idiotic???
I will post other questions later within this thread, in order to keep this forum clean. Thanks for any help!

You should ask Microsoft . For me the system is good enough, but maybe you are searching for an alternative to Outlook. There are several applications doing just this, maybe you will find a better one. I think the term for such applications is "PIM".

So you're saying you don't have problems with single mobile number?

Yes, I guess that is what I need. Would you please give more clues about the PIM? I googled "PIM Windows Mobile 6", and got many... too many results. Please enlighten me on this. Thanks
you can use bluetooth to send contacts directly from p1i to max i believe, that would be better and faster solution

Thank you. I tried this... it doesn't help.
For example, I have one contact who has about ten numbers, among them 4 mobile phone #. After beaming to Max, only one mobile phone# remians. Obvious the idiotic WinMo contacts program decides that it doesn't need the other 3 mobile#.
D--n!!
Has anyone used Inesoft phone program?? Can it solve these problems?

[Q] Calling info screen Android (company name, adres)

Hello Friends,
I have recently installed new Android 4.1 on my HTC Desire Z and wished that simple issue had been finally added to the software. But I was wrong...
Maybe any of you know how to customize Calling In (and maybe Call out) screen to see other contact info if exist like. Company name, address, work title etc.
Most of us does not have only Name and Phone Number in Contacts. I have more that 2000 contacts and many of them are same name like John from Company A and John from Company B. Unfortunately when they are calling I see only Name and Phone number (and picture where normally I do not have )
Please if there is any customization possibility to see more contact info when calling please help to solve it.
I had similar requirement.
I zeroed on DW Contacts Pro. Has what you require and much more.
Its available on play store just search.

[Q] Banner ads capturing mobile number

Hello all,
Just wondering if anyone can help with a question and hope this is in right forum.
Does anyone know how these banner ads get your phone number?
I have had three explanations:
The banner ad and an email from the company say that they contact my service provider and the SP supply the number.
My service provider tell me they absolutely do not give customers numbers to third parties.
Via a phone call to the company they said it requires the user to enter their phone number and click submit. (I know for sure this didn't happen.)
Don't know which to believe now!
Would appreciate anyone who knows more about this if they could let me know.
Thanks
Rob

[Completed] "19" added before dialed numbers

I own LG G3 Verizon, and I live in Yemen. The dialing country code of Yemen is +967.
And I usually save numbers of contacts with the country code so that I can find them in "whatsapp".
The problem is that every time I call one of the contacts, I get a dialed number like this ( 19967XXXXXXXXX) where X are the phone numbers.
And the carrier doesn't understand the number.
How do I change my G3 settings so that it won't add a prefix.
I searched other threads and were told to change cust. And some posts said that I should change a line in build.prop. But in both posts, those solutions do not exist.
I even changed the reference country in my phone settings to Yemen but that didn't work, it shows that my current country is "wallis and futuna (france) "
How can I solve that?
