BB Bold 9700 :: Not Showing My Number In Call Screen?
Jun 4, 2010
I have just changed from an 8900 to a 9700 and I am very happy with it!One little thing I can't figure out is that when I am dialing a number it says at the top 'my number:unknown number' How do I change this to display what my number is?
Using 9700 on Vodafone UK - Software Version 5.0.0.423..This has happened a few times now. At first I thought it was just me not reading the screen properly. And it only happens now and again.
What happens is that sometimes when I get a call the screen shows the last callers details as if they were ringing again - but it is someone else.When I hang up the call or if I miss the call - the details then show the correct persons details - weird.
If I pull the battery out it all works fine then for a week or two and then starts happening again. It is not a big deal or anything - just a bit strange.
Can you someone really explain how to take off the "unknown number" when dialling anyone?Its NOT the "show my number" on the calls menu , it appears when you are making a call.Please help.
I have another question. How do you block your number when you make a call? I live in Toronto and when I type in *67 before the number it doesn't seem to go through. Is there another way that I don't know of?
For some odd reason missed calls are not showing on my call log.And for reference I have done the following:
- Checked and searched forums / the web
- Did a battery pull
- Checked application memory, standing strong at 85 MB
- Memory card has 1.8GB As well
- Cleared browser history and other memory 'stuff' just for the sake of it
The problem is old Missed calls are showing, but the new ones aren't. I haven't got the slightest clue why really, and I'm hoping someone here can help me out.
I am using a Bold 9700 on AT&T and when someone calls me with a blocked number, "uknown caller" does not show up on my call log. It wont show that I received that call and won't give me a call history. Any help would be appreciated.
I have a 9700 with the tmobile network, and sometimes even though i have full 3g coverage my phone, will tell me that my call failed..I will dial a number then experiance a long silence period and then i message will come up on my phone with "call failed". I am running the .442 operating system on my phone. any tricks or tips on how to solve this?
How come when I have placed a call and then I need to punch in additional numbers those additional numbers do not show up on my call screen. Example let's say I am calling my doctors office. Their recorded message will say" press 1 for refill press 2 for nurse press 3 to schedule an appointment. When I press the "1" THAT number does not show up on my phone screen. It sure would be nice to see what numbers you are dialing in. What am I doing wrong?
I don't know if I'm the only person getting this problem but sometimes while making or receiving a call and the phone press against your face it sometimes dial back the same number on the screen.
How can i delete the no number entry in my call log. Tried to delete it bt showing invalid selection. Have tried all the ways, restore factory, delete log list, software update but the problem presists.
This is my first bb and I love it to bits...I have noticed that today whenever i receive a call I have the same caller id showing as the first person that rang me after I switched my phone on this morning...and that was my wife...so I have been answering "hi gorgeous" to everyone all day!
My contacts are saved both on my sim card and on the phone itself. However, recently, whenever any of my contacts phone, all i get coming up is a number and not their name.
I just changed from a bb pearl to a bb storm 9530. I got an unlocked phone and put my sim card in. I cannot get it to come up with my phone number. when i go to the call screen it comes up as 00000000000 and whn i check my sim card info on the phone it says my phone number but I cannot get the right number to come up on the call screen, and can't make or recieve calls.
so i received an sms from a friend who i dont have saved in my contact list.is there a way to save the number straight from the sms into my contact list without having to copy it first and going into Contacts and saving it there
Where can I see the OS version number for my BB Bold 9700 (installed approximately April 2011)?I had AccuWeather installed which for no reason stopped working. I deleted it with the intention to reinstall, yet when I get to the AppStore web, it says my OS is not supported.
I have recently got a Nokia 6301 and put all my contact is. However when someone rings me neither their name or number comes up on the screen - just "call". What I have I done wrong? I have put the contact name in and phone number under "general".
I have only one cell number that will show up in my text messaging with just the number not the name. I have deleted it and reentered it. It has a + in front of the number.
Basically none of my contacts are showing up on my contact list, they seemed to have all been deleted! Also I am not using any filters. As well as this, all my text messages have no contact names assigned to them, just their number. However in my call log, my contacts names come up... And when I click on view contact through the call log, the contact's details all come up!!! For example, one of my contacts, John, is saved on my call log and when I click on view contact through the call log, his address and number comes up, so it is saved. However when he calls, his name doesnt come up...So I'm assuming my contacts are saved on my phone somewhere, but they dont seem to come up on my contact list or text messages!! I recently added my gmail account to my Blackberry.
On my bold 9790 OS 7.1.0 pack 2039, It appears that "unknown caller" are not logged on the regular call history., I find it annoying....This is true for missed and taken calls.
I am using a Bold 9700 on AT&T and when someone calls me with a blocked number, "uknown caller" does not show up on my call log. It wont show that I received that call and won't give me a call history.
I have a Bold 9930, and this morning i needed the "Call forwarding function"....but according to the manual in the Option menu...Surprise no call forwarding option and also no call waiting.I have search in all my phone but they simply aren't present....Since i had some problems in the morning when the phone was fully discharged i put my sim card in another phone and used the call forwarding option....but when i returned to my blackberry...well the surprise described earlier....After some research over the internet i have found and use the code ##21# for deactivate the call forwarding
All other users in the company are not experiencing this issue, only on bold 9700's. Phone is synced with exchange address book. Inbound caller id is showing numbers only, and no names.I miss the callers "name" being able to show (display) during inbound calls.Has anyone else experienced this issue?
When setting a password, for the "Number of Password Attempts" (set to 10), can somebody absolutely confirm if it is 10 consecutive logins, or if it 10 total?
I'm assuming once you login correctly once that the number if incorrect attempts resets to 0, but I've seen statements in various articles that state or at least hint otherwise.
I've had my bb bold 9700 for about a wk now & I can't help but to get irritated at the number of times a day it reboots itself. I will say tho, that I'm mainly noticing the problem when I'm using a app such as Pandora. BUT sometimes in the middle of a text or something it'll just reboot WTH is that all about? Any solutions besides taking the phone back? Ps: I'm new to the blackberry world so plz forgive my ignorance if this is something common with all blackberries or if its something I'm doing wrong
