(long form) (+012) 3456789
really I don't want to change all my numbers to the long form
my old BA shows the name with the short form
plz help
and sorry for my english
Well mine works fine with short versions.
a long shot but does it make a difference if you set the default area code?
it looks like your regional settings are not correct for your needs.

Go to Contacts -> then Menu -> Options then area code. but this almost seems like a very US centric setting, again maybe due to regional settings.
So I understand your problem correctly, for a Kuwait number
+965-555-1234 you want to be able to just use 555-1234 without the country code? I don't think there are area codes in Kuwait just country codes correct.

Make sure you have CyanogenMod 4.2.3.1, by the way.
1) Unzip zip to desktop
2) Run Part 1.bat
3) When prompted to press any key, do so; the phone will reboot
4) When your phone is running again, run Part 2.bat
5) When prompted to press any key, the installation process is done.
6) Make sure GPS is enabled
7) Open Maps and press OK
8) Press Menu
9) Press Directions

===============================================
This is a continuation of a discussion that started in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=4918275
My best guess as to why navigation works in the emulator but not on the phone has to do with what kind of device the Maps application thinks it is running on.
For example, if you start maps and press menu->more->about and look at the "Platform" line, that will be different according to the device (emulator or G1 or other) that you are running on. What we need to change (I think) would be that setting.
According to this link, you can programatically get that string (I'm pretty sure they were talking about that string) through the API. Anyone more familiar with the API know where that string is stored?
Also, any other suggestions as to why it won't work on a real phone may be discussed in this thread.
What does platform say on the emulator? According to the info in that link, it should be null.

You should then just do adb pull /system C: and then bring it here. I'm sure they won't mind you trying to break their system
One thing I noticed is that it repeatedly references epc.tmobile.com as the provider. Let's hope they aren't using that and checking for verizon or this is a fool's quest.
Some interesting things to note:
The Version string of the Maps app is different in the emulator than on the phone as well.
Emulator: "3.2.0 (#3232) Web"
Phone: "3.2.0 (#3232) gmm-google"
Also, there was a blog post put up before 1.5 was released showing a way that you could spoof the ANDROID_ID on the phone by modifying a database (article here). I don't know if this is valid since at the end of the article he stated that they were supposed to fix it with 1.5.
Edit: I may have gotten ahead of myself. The ANDROID_ID string I think is not the correct one that I was looking for. That seems to be unique to the phone and not to the model, maker, whatever.

The question is, even if we knew what the droid said - how can we change our Platform string to match. It's clearly not reading off of the build.prop file (and neither is the device string in the about phone menu).
Maybe it's a database issue (the database gets initialized the first time the phone is booted to the values in the build.prop file?) that just needs to be wiped.

Well let's see... what do we know so far?
The version string shows up differently on different phones and the emulator shows up with a general one, but all have the same number. So it's probably not that, it seems to be building that from information it gathers elsewhere on the phone.
It's probably not reading which network is being used since that would block the emulator(which isn't running off the verizon network).
The only thing left I can think of immediately is the model string. That would actually make perfect sense, check against the model string to make sure that it's either the emulator or the droid. Otherwise turn off navigation. Changing that would be my first thing to aim for.

No clue, probably need someone with experience making ROMs for that info. I'm guessing it has to be in some file somewhere. Seems highly unlikely they'd have done something as crazy as building that into the hardware.
Well, I modified cyanogen's build.prop file to include the lines below:
ro.build.id=ECLAIR
ro.build.version.sdk=5
ro.build.version.release=2.0
ro.product.name=sdk
ro.product.device=generic
ro.product.manufacturer=unknown
As well as put the Maps.apk into the system/app folder in his update file. Then I resigned the file, put it on my SD card and wiped my phone. I installed the "new" rom and booted up. The maps app works exactly as it should sans navigation options. The Version string i have now is the "3.2.0 (#3232) gmm-androidd-tmobile" one but the Platform string is unchanged.
I noticed in the "About Phone" menu, the Model Number (T-Mobile G1) was unchanged but the Firmware version said "2.0" and I'm pretty sure it said "1.6" before.

You would be right, cyanogen only makes builds from soure code. And the source code for 2.0 hasn't been released yet. So, obviously we need to have a modified build.prop before we flash a rom, or it won't read it correctly
I was wrong. I had that same modified build.prop on my phone before I wiped, I just hadn't noticed that the firmware version number had changed. Perhaps I didn't modify the right valued to also get the model number to change.
I have decompiled Maps.apk using dedexer 1.7. Here is all the stuff it gave me. I used dexdump last night and it gave me something similar. Im using notepad++ to search through all the files for keywords but I cant find anything interesting. Maybe you can...

I am so sorry if this question has already been asked. But i was just wondering if we could use the markert enabler on Nexus one as well ? i have the version which i used on my Hero. would it work on a rooted nexus one as well ?

Thank you for doing this! I have a stupid question, but I have to ask it, because I don't know how MarketAccess works.
Can you (or anybody) confirm that only the market is fooled? By this, I mean, I want to be sure that neither my telco nor the telco I'm spoofing will charge me for roaming and that any data I actually download while spoofing my location will still go through my normal APNs?
Thanks for your answer.
MarketAccess emulates SIM numeric of the chosen operator. My local provider APNs continue to work fine with no extra charges when I have T-Mobile emulated.
However, it may affect other applications which also depend on the SIM numeric. For example, the APN Settings dialog will start to show the APNs valid for the emulated provider (SIM numeric = MCC+MNC in the APN settings). To be on the safe side remove the APNs for the emulated provider or change the APN server to your local one, but with the MCC/MNC of the emulated provider.
In theory it may alert such application as WaveSecure and SIM Checker. But I have WaveSecure installed and it seems to live fine with the emulated SIM numeric. One user reported that SIM Checker also works fine.
If you feel paranoid, then just disable the GPRS/EDGE/3G using APNdroid or Toggle Data and buy/download the applications via WiFi. Once downloaded, restore your original SIM numeric and enable data transfer.
Thank you for your comprehensive answer!
SIM Checker dev here. I can confirm that there are no problems with MarketAccess, since the SIM numeric value is not used to determine if the SIM card has been changed.
ok i get what it does but what special apps do you need this to get?

You need MarketAccess to buy any application from Market in the countries where paid applications are not listed in the Market. Is that the answer you were looking for?
so being in the us there is really no need for it? or are there specific apps that can only be seen using this

Developers can choose where to distribute their applications. So we can guess that there are some apps limited to certain countries. I don't know of any specific examples.

Hmm, no luck...
Galaxy Nexus OR Transformer Prime + "lay" = not found in store.
In strings (eng):
"link href" = "Address"
I think there should be an 'add' button for new plates and links (not only menu | add...).
Perhaps for "add new..." links change the order? e.g. Title | Address | Plate
I think import from bookmarks is quite important also.
Keep going...

"lay" have too much search result
and there are some images may help show how app store works.
I find when i can find the app in the wep store ,i can find the app in the app store.
just one thing wep store has a device filter "all device" or "my phone"
when choose mu phone ,it will filter some app that not match you phone..
and with right key word ,I'm sure you can find app in web store and then also in the app store

As you can see, I don't think anybody really knows exactly what you're asking about. I'm not really sure either. If you mean the name of the wireless hotspot, go to settings>Network & Internet>hotspot and tethering>set up Wi-Fi hotspot. You can change the name where it says 'network name'.

I don't have the Pixel 2 yet. Just researching for when I do. So forgive me if this info is outdated and no longer works. All my devices are still Lollipop.
Anyway, I changed the name on my devices by adding a line to the build.prop.
Code:
net.hostname=[I]devicename[/I]
Just change devicename to whatever you want. Not sure of any character limitations or restrictions. But my router always showed whatever I use. Hope that helps...and still works.

I have that setup with a proper name but as suspected that only applies to when using your phone as a mobile hotspot.

This worked perfectly for me! Thank you!
You can use the Find Device app from Google self, to change the name of your device. Is don't have the option on my phone (Nokia 6.1) because of Android One but it worked like a charm with the app.
Just download the app.
Open it and login.
Select your device if you have multiple devices
Touch the 3 dotted menu button upper right and select 'Change device name' of something like that (I'm from Belgium so I don't know exactly how it's called).
Now change the name to whatever you want, and wait a bit. If you go the play store on a desktop computer and choose an app to install, press the install button, your devices will be listed. Now the new name of your device should appear. Also, if you check your device name under settings > advanced > about phone, there is a big chance it's changed there as well.
Now you can delete the app if you want.
I know what he is asking about because I'm also searching "how do I set my hostname in pixel".
As we know, every computer / server have a hostname to connect to a network. On linux, we set hostname by editing the file `/etc/hostname`. On Windows, we do it in `settings`. hostname will be shown on router, and others in the same lan can perform `ping someone_hostname.lan`.
