hello,
i'm using ipaq 6340 i sometimes the following happens: the phone is ringing, the standard dialog appears with the caller number in it. however no name is assigned to the number so i don't know who is calling!
now i'm sure the number of the caller is the same as stored in the contacts database. also sometimes the correct contact is assigned but after some time it's not. this happens "by itself".
is anyone else experiencing the same problem?
thanks,
fuf
When i receive an incoming call, the number isnt there or either it is white which would blend in with the background. also the contact photo is blank. Does anyone have a solution to this???
I think that if you would specyfi what device you are talking about, what OS do you have and did you modify your theme, that would be helpful to diagnose the problem.
Besides, tell us what did you do BEFORE it happened. Does it happens with ALL incoming calls or just one number? Did you try to back up your contacts and re-format the device? etc... etc...

NVM it was the 28205 SYS. Thanks.
How do i change the phone number format in T-mo Sensation? right now its showing all numbers together.. like 9739730096. I want something like 973-973-0096. is that possible?
Also, when an incoming call comes from a person who is not in my contact, the phone number is tiny in the incoming call screen.. its pathetic.. is there a way to make that big?
The picture of the contact during the call is blurry.. not sure how why that happens..
bringing up..
I don't know how you would change the format of the numbers, in regards to incoming calls being too small of a size, do you have any vision issues? Numbers and text are smaller on these phones due to the higher resolution but not to to the point where the numbers of incoming calls are pathetically low (at least for me). When root is achieved, you could always change your LCD density and increase the general size of everything. Hope that helps in anyway

vision problem ? lol ! will you like a dial pad in such a small font? no, because it not easy to dial. Same thing.. when a call comes, you would like to see the callers name and number catchy and big in that big screen.. small font is uncomfortable..
i know some other dialer or root can solve this problem. I was asking if there is any option in sense or android to fix this ...

I am having the same issues. Mu numbers are not formatting as in my contacts when placing or receiving calls. it's showing plain numbers like 2232322323 instead of (223) 232 2323 even though the language is set to English US, anyone else is having this issue?
I have the same problem and am also wondering if there is a way to fix it.
there's an app out there that will fix it. someone posted it a day or two ago. sorry I don't have more info. I'll search through my browser history to see if I can find it
isn't that app called mylocale2 ? i had that installed, it did nothing.
MoreLocale 2 be the app
yes i tried morelocale 2 and chose english (US) from it, but didn't help at all.
I could've sworn I saw an app that would change your phone number formats but couldn't find it.
Randomly it happened for me after I imported my contacts after backing them up first. Annoyed me as normal UK format is 1234567890 so the - pissed me off!
FOUND IT!!!
will this work for you?

I am not sure if that program will help me. My contacts seem to be formatted correctly. I checked it on my gmail account. when ever i receive a call it also shows a plain number like 1234567890, it has to be some kind of regional settings like in old windows mobile phones, but androids i guess use locale, and i think something might be messed up with locale...
I am still trying to figure out what phone numbers are showing without US formatting on my US T-Mobile Sensation. Both incoming and outgoing phone numbers are not showing in (xxx) xxx xxxx format, but instead just showing xxxxxxxxxx format. Can anyone who uses US version of sensation confirm if your phone numbers show in (xxx)XXX XXXX format, please?
thanks

Just change locale to English(US) in phone settings.
So, I've been looking around to no avail, but I'm 100% certain this has been discussed before. When I use google voice to make outgoing calls on my android phone, regardless of rom, when I make a call to my contacts they are displayed as "unknown number", but when they make calls it shows their name and all that. Any idea why this is happening? thanks for the help.
Hey everyone anyone have an idea of what might cause this? I am with Rogers so name as well as number are sent with caller ID. On a lot of calls, my phone will ring and it will show a number like 416-123-1234 as calling with no name at all. If I don't answer, then the notification bar and call logs will show "Missed Call from ABC COMPANY". Anyone know why it doesn't always show the name when the call is actually coming in and then does later? I don't have any caller ID apps or things like that, and I even enabled google's caller ID feature but still doesn't do it. Most calls will show the name, but just a handful always do this.

Have the same issue. And I don't see the the caller picture.
For the callers that I have in my contacts as well.
I am on Rogers and can confirm the same issue. It happens sometimes, whilst other times I see the company name and picture even though it is not saved in my Contacts.
