Hi,
Maybe i'm missing something. How do I disable the caller ID from saying the callers name (simply not loud enough), and just set it to the ringer tone I orginally had? I ran a search and came up with 1000 hits :roll:. I know there is a simple solution but maybe i'm just blind.
Update: I don't know what is going on now. I managed to get the ringtones to work, but the call ID girls talks at the same time.
What do you mean by that ?
Do you mean to PhotoContacts that can choose ringtone per contacts?
or MS voicecommand ?
MS voice command has nothing to do with it. I mean when a caller calls me, the default ringtone (set to oldring.wma) and the girl's voice telling me who the caller is and where, come on at the same time. I want to disable the girl's vioce altogether leaving me with only the default ringtone.
What I find mysterious is that I have two versions of Caller ID's in the /Windows directory, IA-P_Contacts.exe version 1.17 (build 16895) and PhotoContacts.exe Caller ID version 1.20 (build 17975). When I customize the setting on either version and a person calls me, I can see both custom animated images pop up. As well as the girl's vioce and the ringtone I assigned to a caller.
As of now, I don't know how to turn off the girl's vioce and I have no idea why two custom animated images are showing in the pop up when a caller calls.
I think both IA_contacts and Photocontacts are thesame program but in different version.
If you want to disable one ,you can do it by delete it from \Windows\Startup.
Firstly ,this is an easy way to stop this problem.
In my suggestion, IA_contacts is older version and it cannot assign ringtone per contacts. If you need to use only default ringtone ,you should pick its.
But in Photocontacts which is newer version ,You can assign ringtone per contacts.
Secondly, in your Ext Rom, It may have Two version of CallerID.
To eliminate this problem, You need to edit your Ext ROM and remove one of this.

Thanks for the tips tumtum. This is what I entually ended up doing. More or less per your instructions.
* In Call ID Options (old version), I disabled/ unticked all the available boxes.
* Disabled/ Removed IA_Caller_ID.lnk from the /startup folder
-- reset --
Results: pop up with no images, caller ID girls still there, default ringtone is audable.
This is what I wanted, but is there a way to remove the Caller ID voice girl? The reason why I want to do this is that it the voice and the ringtone cancels each other out in most cases.
PS. It seams that when you go into the Caller ID options, without changing anything, the pop up doesn't want to show anymore and the ringtone isn't audable anymore as well. But the Caller ID girl is still there. It takes a reset to get the functions back.
Man do I want to break up with her. The sooner, the better. :x

Could you capture your screen that you have problm ?
Because I can't undrestand what you mean "caller ID girls".
Perhaps I can help you.

I can do something better. I recorded it with my Sony Ericsson T610. The trick was to convert the amr file to mp3 format because I don't know whether or not you have a player that plays amr files.
When you play it, you will notice a girl telling you who is calling, according to your phone book, and at what number. I want to remove the girl talking.

That's sound like "Microsoft Voice Command".
Because I had used it before.
I'm pretty sure that's MS voice command.
To nomadman
I need you to check something
At Start > Setting > Personal, Do you have voicecammand icon?
If yes ,you can set it by clicking it.
And set option at Phone to Disable speaking the name of Contacts who calling.

OMG! You are so right tumtum 8) . I just didn't realize it was a simple solution. It has been a while since I registered and installed my copy of MSVC and I didn't bother to check the command settings.Man, I sure appreciate your feedbacks on this. You have made a freind for life.
Now, to get back my old setting again. Glad I made a Sprite backup everytime I installed a cab file :lol:. If there is any way I can be of service, hollar at me.
Best regards..
Glad to hear that.
I can do as best as I can do. Because We are friends.

Below is a pic of my screen, after I receive a voicemail. Notice, that where every other thing in the panel shows a number value next to it, the voicemail, when one has been received, shows an asterisk.
All my other txt, email, etc. have a number,1,2,3, etc. Why does my voicemail show an asterisk.
OrganicM, do you know why? If so, is there a way I can change the reg or write a script that will fix this, to where it shows a number.
By the way, I wanted to add that it shows 1 asterisks for 2 voicemails or 3 or 4. I searched this forum, but have had no luck. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I'm using Kavana's 080408 ROM and it does the same thing. I haven't really paid much attention to it though.
Yeah, but it seems like it should be such an easy fix, and there is really no reason that I can see for this to happen in the first place.
There is an asterisk because the network doesn't tell your phone how many voicemails there are, just that there are or aren't any. Asterisk means "some".
Some voicemail systems don't have this weakness, but most do.
Oh so this can not be fixed or can it be fixed?
Thanks to this forum, my HD is almost perfectly customized with the current tools. Now I am going to experiment with the new radio 1.12.
However one thing is still bugging the hell out of me. Everytime I get a call of an unknown caller, I get the default avatar picture (grey and boring). I know that you can change this with some programs, like Photo Contacts Pro. But I don't want to install this, because I like the standard call pickup screen with the slider.
Is it possible to change the pictures for incoming unknown and private callers without installing another program?
Hey guys.
I have an E250K note II phone (purchased from Korea). I had all sorts of problems with it
- korean apps that i couldnt remove (even after rooting)
- voicemail option (number 1 button), does not work
- OLLEH logo on bootup
- when i get a call, and reject it, it hangs up on the caller, not forward to the VM (my mobile provided reset my account 5 times, no help)
all sort of things
now i installed the Milan 3.0 ROM, and it was magic, EVERYTHING got fixed, with the exception of, receiving a call, and rejecting it
I think it is a feature in the ROM that i cannot find out a solution for
I think the Milan ROM is a chinese one, but it is way better than the stock korean one
So now, what i am looking for, is if someone calls me and i cant pickup, and i swipe the reject button, i want the caller to be able to go to voicemail, instead of hanging up on them
when i even look at the call log, it shows, "cancelled" as the call status
I am not looking for google voicemail or something like that..
i just want the basic functionality of the phone to work i guess.
so i am pretty sure there is something, a hack, or something that would allow the forward calls when busy to VM
when not available or unreachable, it takes the caller normally to VM, it is the call forward when busy is what i am having trouble with
Any help with that, i would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks
wow 86 views.. and no one knows....
I seriously need help from anyone please.
Thanks
I'm interested in this too. I wasn't aware that rejected calls didn't go to voice mail until recently and that's not what I wanted to happen.
Edit:
Hmm. Maybe this depends on where the call originates from. I just tried calling my phone from Skype and call reject sent it to voicemail, but when I get a forwarded call from work it just hangs up.
Can anyone else confirm?

anyone cares to chime in and tells us something on how to fix this?
is this caused by ROM maybe?
I tried a US rom made for the 7105 models, (i didnt install the modem), and the voicemail option VANISHED, got back to the original rom i had, VM is back, but back to square one, which is hanging up on rejected calls, normal calls that is.
My caller ID is not working for any calls not on my contact list. This was not the case on the Pixel 3XL I came from. I have added a secondary caller ID app called Hiya which shows me there IS caller information coming across, but the Google dialer is only showing a phone number.
Anyone else with this? Is it normal on OP? Is there a fix?

I have not experienced this issue. In the Google dialer app you can turn this feature on if I recall correctly.

You can.
Guess I should have mentioned I have the settings turned on.
I've reset connections, reset network settings, even wiped the phone a few times installing with zero backups. Hasn't changed anything.
While I'm moderately happy with the phone, this is still an issue.
Anyone have suggestions?
You need to call Verizon and tell them your issue.. they need to fix it on their end
I have a pretty hard time believing this is on the Verizon end when different apps will get the information.
The caller information is making it TO the phone, as evident in different apps, but the Google dialer is not broadcasting the info.
After spending countless hours with Verizon just to get this phone working on their network, I probably shouldn't doubt you. It's just a rabbit hole I don't think I can go down...trying to get to a customer support reps who actually knows how to fix things and not read candid answers off a checklist in front of them is pretty rough.

I had to do the same thing with Verizon first I couldn't receive messages and I had to get them to make the phone cdma-less on their end .. then after I got the messages to work my caller id didn't work ...I was lucky and got someone who actually knew what they were talking about and the caller id issue was fixed after the call

Thanks for the clarification...pretty much the same steps I've gone through minus the last.
Guess I'll sucker up and try to call them.

Definitely an issue on VZW side. I've seen reports about this around. I'm on T-Mobile, so it's pretty much enabled by default across all the phones my family has... Including an iPhone.
