Incoming and outgoing calls are shown as "Unkown" (Custom ROM and living abroad)
I recently installed the Exodus Rom on my Sprint Samsung Galaxy S5 and then moved to Mongolia.
Now, all of my incoming and outgoing calls are listed as "Unknown"
I believe I fixed this in the past with another phone and it was very simple, but I just can't remember how I did it. Any advice?
PS I really enjoy the Exodus Rom
I read that fixing permissions may help..... but couldn't that also mess up my phone?
Anyone? I know this is a common problem, but I can't seem to find an answer anywhere.
Seems to be a service provider problem. Either you are not being sent the caller id, or your phone is unable to read the send id.
Had a similar problem when i moved to Germany from India and calling up the service provider solved the problem..they activated the "show caller id" which was not activated due to some reason.
Call the service provider and tell them your problem...it most likely will be solved. Let me know if it does

Actually, If I don't use a CM based mod it works fine... It is only on CM based mods. I went to a service provider store and they punched in a code... but it didn't fix it. They were confused and told me I should have my phone fixed.

Hello everyone,
I have a Telus Branded TP2. Got it SIM UNLOCKED and everything working smoothly. Except, the ID Caller does not work. How can I fix that?
When someone calls me, only number shows, No NAME.
I have that feature on FIDO. They told me I should download a software.
Any help?

That it how it is supposed to work.
If you want the name to show up, the contact has to be in your phone book.

nope, this is not how FIDO Id Caller works.
You pay an extra 7$ and you get the entire Fido Data base. Every Fido/Rogers caller will show on my incoming call(should).
The Fido Customer service told me that since it is Telus CDMA branded, the Fido Service will not work on it.
He told me to go on the GSM forum and download an ID caller that will enable the service to work.
Every incoming call SHOULD show Name And Number (even if I dont have it in my phone book).
Anyone can help me out?
The only issues I can see with Caller ID on the ICS builds is calls from Telus Mobility. All other call displays seem to work just fine.
Calls from Telus work fine on my phone. Then again with Superlite 5.0, I'm not having any caller ID issue.
Calls from telus landlines show up on my phone. Calls from Telus cell phones appear as unknown. I'm running Team Perfection ICS but I thought I read somewhere that it is a quirk with ICS, and the way that Rogers sends out its caller id packets. Don't quote me on that but that I believe is causing the issues.

EDIT: So I just found this
ROGERS Caller ID doesnt work
Call Rogers, ask to disable "Name Display" on your account.

Have any of you guys that are having issues tried this?
EDIT 2: Actually just called Rogers to do this, but if I do go ahead with disabling Name Display, I will also have to change my plan. So its a no go.
Sorry for bumping this but, I just had a chance to test out a couple of different carriers and services.
Telus landlines = proper display of info.
Telus cell = unknown caller
Rogers cell = proper name and number.
Can anyone else maybe also confirm that it might just be telus numbers that we're having issues with. I don't know what can be done exactly but narrowing down the problem should help.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using XDA
i can confirm. Anyone, on any carrier, not just telus, landline or cellphone, who has chosen to have a blank or "unknown" in the name field but still have their number shown, will shown up assuming u have their contact info. Anyone who has a name, say (john doe), and its displayed when they call normally, on say a landline, will show up as unknown

I had the same issue but was able to get the Name Display disabled to get the caller ID working! I had a value pack and they disable the specific feature from that pack
Hi, a friend gave me an old LG P500 phone to play around with. It had a stock ROM on it.
I put my SIM in, phone showed I have service but when I try to make calls it won't let me. It just disconnects in less than a second.
So I flashed a custom rom (GSNAP 1.5) to check if that might fix the issue. It didn't, exact same issue.
Phone shows it's connected to my service provider, DATA actually works but can't make outgoing calls.
Any speculations or help?
Thanks!
can you receive calls? if no then probably hardware issue.
Its network issue.. your phone is okay!!
Call network customer care!!
Well I didn't check if I can receive calls...
I don't really care that much as to call my customer service to get it to work. I have a working phone.
This is a friend's phone and he wanted me to get it working.
I guess I'll let him try it with his SIM card. Maybe his will work.
By the way, could it be that the phone might be network locked but it just doesn't say that for some reason?
Tried a different SIM card, didn't solve the issue. Same problem.
I'm not sure it's a service provider issue.
may try flashing the official rom using kdz . might be some issue with the libraries.
I flashed the official V20c with KDZ... Still a similar problem but now it shows a message when trying to make an outgoing call: "Divert Activated"
