HTC Incredible S :: Contacts' Names Do Not Display When Calling?
Jan 31, 2012
I realise there are several similar threads about names not displaying with the incredible s, but I can't seem to find one that deals with my issue specifically.All my contacts were stored and displaying correctly, then I changed service provider.In the changeover, now NO contact names display (although all my contacts are saved).like everyone, there are some people I'd like to either ignore / defer talking to
When I receive text messages from contacts saved with names in my phonebook, the messages don't display with their names. They do appear like those messages are from new contacts which are not saved in my phonebook.How may I rectify this problem?
Check under Settings > iCloud to see if the Contacts switch is ON (green side showing). If it's already on, switch it off for 30-60 seconds, then back on again. Your contacts should start showing up shortly...
When I receive a call as all of you know , Blackberry OS tells you when was your last call from the caller . in TORCH this appear in the middle of the contact name that calling me . what to do?
With some of my contacts an incoming call with a Caller ID does not display the caller's name, although they are in my Contact List and the number is in a valid format.Same is the case for sms's from the same contact.I only have one entry of that contact in my phonebook.Any 1 facing the same issue?
My friend's display name updates by itself without her doing it and there is no change to the display name, sometimes a few times a day. is it possible that this can happen?
I have an iPhone 4 running the latest iOS. I have the contacts with their phone numbers in my Contacts database. But when I get a missed call from them, I only see the numbers and not the name of the person who called, in the missed call notification. Only when I click on the number and it starts to dial them, then their names appear.
I updated ATT software, now my BMW 7 Series only displays contacts' phone numbers (in numerical order) and not contacts' names. I've done all the trouble shooting I could conjure up (already spoke to ATT/Motorola Tech/BMW), all to no avail.
Only got this phone yesterday so am still finding my way round it, but ive figured out how to show just my phone contacts when i go into contacts. But, when i want to send a text and go to select a contact, its hwoign everything twice, the phone contact and the sim contact. Why is this and how do i get it to just show one or the other?
Ok so I just got the incredible today. My first Droid phone. I m trying to record and send video via text message. Two things here. 1st the video at 30 secs long seems to be too big to send. I have tried recording it in both formats and at the lowest settings..Any thoughts on how to make it smaller? I was able to send video up to a minute long on my Blackberry so not sure what the problem here is.
With my HTC Hero I could scroll down to an address in contacts and the text would move from right to left so I could read the post code. How do I do this with the HTC Incredible S? Only way I've found so far is to select edit then manually thumb down to see the full address.
Hi , I need to display only Sim contacts in phone contacts option rather than contacts that are saved in memory card. According to me knowledge there is a bug in these cell phone perhaps if you have any old nokia phone you may find this option.
I have very strange problem with my Blackberry phones ( Bold 9900 and Torch 9800) - when somebody is calling me , I see the number, but I cannot see the name. I am sure that I do not have duplicate contacts - two contacts and one phone number.
while texting, some of my names on contacts changed into just their numbers. they are also gone in my contact list. did a hrad reset and nothing changes.
When I upgraded my iPhone, my contact list was scrambled, some listed by first names, some my last. Seri cannot understand my accent. I want my contacts listed by first names.
I have a BB Curve 8530, and I have read a lot about this issue. Most people need to just change the "Content Protection" , however I can't even find that option in the options list. It is not in the security options either.
I recently purchased an xperia ray to which I moved my old SIM from SE K700i. The SIM had many contacts with multiple phone numbers (mobile number, house number.etc) under a single name, but when I viewed it on xperia ray , it shows duplicate names but with different numbers under the Mobile category. Is there a way to merge these names and bring all the different numbers into Mobile, House, Others etc under one name.I searched and found some answers for "Merging" but all were referring to merging different names with common phone numbers, but what I need is just the opposite. If there is already a discussion and solution to this , please give the reference.
I have an at&t Galaxy s5 and last week I updated to 4.4.4, since then I can't add emojis to any of my contacts names. Any of my old contacts who had emojis still do but I cannot edit and add more or create contacts with emojis. I'm not sure why but if there's a solution that would be great! Also, I'm using SwiftKey keyboard.
It's not displaying names of the contacts in message folder but instead is displaying ONLY numbers. This is creating difficulty for me to go back in contacts and see which person is sending SMS.
With previous Nokia phones I have been able to create names against phone numbers, necessary when I may have 6 or more phone numbers for one contact.
It seems impossible to do this with the E7-00, so I now have a list of phone numbers per contact and no way of telling the difference between each number.
The names of contacts from iphone does not appear in the recent calls, only numbers. I think the settings are different, eg, the numbers appear in the contacts: (333) 333-3333 and the recent calls appears :3333-3333.
Despite several phone calls to HTC and my network provider, they can't solve the problem with my phone.
My Wildfire was replaced last week with the Wildfire S following a series of software issues. For some reason, only some of my contacts names & facebook links are showing in my SMS inbox - I'm just getting their phone number. It's not all the contacts, but a growing number leaving me with a string of unidentified phone numbers...
I've tried completely deleting a contact and putting it back in; waiting for them to text and adding to contacts; I've triple checked the numbers... I've exported, imported... and run out of options!! All those with problems worked before on my old phone, and as I say it's not all the contacts.
My network says it's HTC, HTC says it's my phone (on contract from Network)
All my contacts disappeared, they arent in my contacts. The ones left in my favourites and in my messages only display the numbers. I have tried a lot of things and nothing has worked. This is EXTREMELY frustrating, almost at the point of ditching apple. (I have a 4s)
It is showing wrong numbers when I search for contact name in the contacts. It shows the wrong number but under the name I am searching for. 3-4 times I called wrong person because my bold showed and dialed a different number for the name I am searching for. I don't know how to solve this.When I type the name of the contact I'm looking for my Bold 9000 displays the list of contacts as usual but the phone number of the contact is wrong. I have to scroll to another name on the list then scroll back to the name I was looking for in order to get the phone to display the correct phone number. I have been using this phone for quite some time and had always worked fine. This problem began yesterday. I do not sync the phone (never have, probably never will). I have not made any changes or added any software. The only thing I have done recently is added more contacts.I have also noticed that it is slower than usual when searching for names and it takes a long time for it to recognize that I have typed more charcters in the contact name before updating the list of results.
I Recently bought a Sony Ericsson Elm and transfered all my old numbers across from my w810, however it now lists/sorts them by surname: name E.g. David Jones now appears as Jones:David/M Is there any way to change the appearance of my contacts so that it is displayed and sorted by 1st name instead of last name.
