Nokia Nseries :: N8 Not Showing Name Of Contact Calling
Jan 13, 2011
I have seen a strange issue with N8. At times, I have seen that when I receive a call from the person who is already added in my contact list, the phone is just displaying the number and not the name of the person. When I check the Log, it also displays the number and not the name of the person.
I have imported my contact list from my previous handset (Nokia N70) where it worked absolutely fine. It is quite inconvenient to identify the caller without the name and decide whether to accept or reject during work hours and have at times missed some important calls due to that.
New user to Nokia and E72.When my phone is ringing it shows the number calling on the display. When some from my contacts call it still only shows the number, not the name.How do you get it to show the contact name?I have browsed all the categories in the menu but haven't found a solution.
My N8 does display calling name from contacts, rather displays only the number. I have tried rebooting the phone after re-inserting SIM (multiple times), but no result. Any fix for this??This irritates in a big way, as you can't recognise as who is calling.
If I call a number where they have a menu where you have to choose from. I can't manage to get my keyboard to make a choice. Does any one know how to do this?
i am unable to make calls. When I try to make phone call it doesn't even try to make the call. I choose a name from the address book to call and nothing happens. After restaring the phone it works fine. An even more annoying problem is that when this has happened my phone doesn't receive calls either. I've heard that people have tried to call me and it has rang normally but my phone doesn't show that someone has called me. Otherwise the phone works fine so I newer know that it is in this "problem state" until I try to make a call.Software version is 025.007.240.02
I found that I can't use the numeric keypad while calling with my N8. Is it possible to show the numerica keypad as possible as other Symbian devices are?
Because of that issue, I can't listen to my voicemails because you need to send dialing signals to use your voicemail box.
I just received my N8 from repair and they changed the main chip for it with the newest software. Now it gives me black screen when calling / receiving calls. It also does this when clock has alert on.I can turn the screen on with the "unlocking slide" but this in general is extremely annoying and pointless. I was thinking to take it back to repair shop, but wanted to ask about this first here.
this time my headphones are not working when i am attending any calls ..otherwise they r fyn !!while listning to music and radio they are working fine ... but when i attend some calls they don"t work ..
Suppose, I have, under 1 name, multiple contacts (each with different Label Pic, ie, phone, telephone pic etc.). On calling or receiving calls, same Pic (ie of Mobile) is displayed against all those numbers.
I have an annoying problem with my contacts-application. Sometimes when I get a call from a saved contact, ONLY the number is displayed as if it was an unsaved number. This also happends sometimes when I call a contact from my phonebook, it only displays the number and not the name.This even happends when I call a number/contact from my "Recent calls"-list. Both outgoing and incoming calls.
I am using E71, which firmware version is 410.21.010. I have a contact which has 2 number (mobile and Telephone) and i have set mobile as default. When i make call from the contacts applicaition it is calling to mobile without showing the number list. But if i call from the homescreen by typing the name, it is showing the number list. I also created new contacts with more than a number and tried, it's not working... And when it shows the number list in the homescreen, pressing the call end button doesn't cancel showing the number list. I have to press the cancel button to cancel the list showing...
When i am receiving a call, the contact's name nor picture shows up. Their ringtone also does not play. Can anyone help me out on how to solve this problem?
When most people call my phone only their number is displayed. All numbers are saved only once. Have tried saving them to the phone and then the sim again nothing seems to work it's so frustrating
When someone calls me the call display shows their number and their "registered" name example: I have Kati McGee saved in my contacts with her number, but when she calls it is Katherin McGee and her number, never my saved name. When i get the message that i missed a call it comes from my contacts, as well as text messages.
How do I make it show what is entered in my phone book? I have tried anything I can find to try, with no luck.
My 5800 only shows the phone number, not the name of the person / business (as listed in my contacts).Shouldn't this happen automatically or is there are setting for this?
My boss Frank has an HTC One M9. We had a colleague Brian whos number was saved on Franks phone. Brian has now left the company and the phone was given to his replacement Paul.
Frank has change the contact in his phone from Brian to Paul. When Paul calls Frank it still shows as Brian. I have check on the phone and can't find any trace of Brian. We use IBM Notes for email/contact which is synced to Franks phone and there is no longer any contact in IBM Notes relating to Frank.
i have nokia 5230 and its supposed to have 128MB ram but when i installed third party apps(RAMblow and FExplorer) these applications are showing only 47.38 as Max.free memory any reason why?
i have my facebook chat integrated with my messaging, however i know people are online but it is not always saying no one is online, it says im signed in so
how to know that who is calling me this is becase everytime someone calls me from the number which is not saved in my contacts is showed as unknown number and the number cannot be viewed.
So I got a new sim card for my phone, all my contacts are still there, and if I click on "To:" in messages, I can go into contacts and select someone, but in my messages, no names show up. It's just everybody's numbers.
i downloaded the free nokia maps app and i cant use it as i used to ... last time i was able to use it was 3 months ago. i am used to using it as a GPS but since the last update i cant now .... my Nokia is N97 mini and i am verry fond of it
My problem is displaying names in Contacts. Everything is ok in History of calls, it shows the correct names also when im calling or texting, but when I go to Contacts everyone is called (bez nazwy) which means in PL (no name). It happened one day that I noticed all contacts changed to the no name ones, so I tried to format card and phone memory, restore defult settings. After it I cant install Ogi Store on my phone :/ but the error with Contacts came back. Numbers saved on SIM works properly only those on the card memory seems to have no name.
My C: memory is showing as full when I try to clear it through the phone file manager despite looking through all folders I cannot identify any large files on it and the same is the case when I try to look through my pc software.
When I hold on the C: memory and look at the memory details it shows 131mb of messages even though I have deleted all txt messages and emails, 46mb of SIS applications I can't see these in the file manager and 72mb of other files which I assume are the OS files.
I bought this phone on the 16th of feb but now mass storage is gone not showing anymore not even on PC... i did everything like installing latest software, restore, delete data and restore and hard reset but still not detecing mass storage.
