XDA IIs phone number display

Just wondering if anyone knows how to fix this:- I have the phone numbers input in my contact list in this way - 8765 4321. Whenever I make a call, either directly from the contact list, or by inputting the phone number using the phone keys, the phone number display automatically changes to (876) 54-321. When I have incoming calls, caller ID also shows (876) 54-321. I know it does the job (of making phone calls) but it's a bit annoying to have the numbers displayed like that. Thanks

try going to regional settings, then choose your country, or any other country except usa... Hope this helps!

My voicemail Number

My Voicemail number is wrong...I am using Ooks awesome 3Volution 6.5 ROM, but I can't seem to locate the setting. Any guesses as to where this is found?

There's always the option of calling your service provider for it and then save it in your phone.

Thanks
Thanks Gmaniac. I know my voicemail number...I just can't find where this setting is on the setting or on the rom or in the phone book, etc.

Isn't that on your sim card stored...what carrier do you have?. In my country bruv...that # comes prestored in your sim card...

I dont know where it is stored, but to change it do the following:
1) Go TO settings
2) Go TO Phone
3) Go TO Call Forwarding
For each category there, click it and tell it what you want it to do, and put in the number...that should do it

Than\ks but...
More specifically here's my problem... when I flip to voicemail on the home screen it dials a number that I can't seem to delete. I have edited all the settings \under settings->phone->etc, but I can't seem to find the setting for this number. Any ideas?

one m8 tmobile on other country

HI all
im having a problem on my m8 tmobile.
i got it in the US and im using it in another country - all works good except one thing.
lets say i have a contact saved in my address book as DAVE and his phone number is 12345678
when Dave calls me i see his name on the screen - all ok
when dave sends me an SMS the sms app doesnt recognize him as one of my contacts and the only thing i see is the country code and then 12345678.
i tried to add the country code to the contact and the SMS worked fine but when i get a call from him now its not recognized there and all i see on the screen is the country code and his phone number 12345678.
bottom line - its not just dave , its for 100% of my contacts.
please please help

I'D guess it's set to expect a ten digit US phone number. I think that is a property set in the build.prop. what country or locale do you want it to default to? I'm not sure I can help but I'll try...

Stock Dialler questions

Hi,
I have a couple of questions about the stock dialler on OP3 running 3.5.4 CB.
1. When using 2 SIMs, Can we select the default SIM for a out going call for contacts at one go ?
Currently when I select the number for a call, a pop up (Call with ) shows up with option to select one of the two SIMs and a check box to "Always use this for calls" lets me do that. I would like to know if this can be done somewhere else, say at the contact detail level? how would i change the option once set using the current method?
2. In the Dialler, what does All calling accounts setting do? clicking on it shows a blank screen. Is it related to SIP accounts?
Dialler -> Settings -> Call settings ->All calling accounts.
Cheers.

That is for all outgoing calls. I am looking at setting default SIM1 for some contacts and SIM2 for others.

You need an app to do that.
I use "Dual SIM Selector" and it works pretty well.

Emergency cell broadcasts

How do you disable them on this phone? I can't seem to find the menu.

open up settings, go to applications, click on messaging then go to "emergency alert settings"
set it how you want it.
