I put a new contact in this evening and is showing in the wrong place in list.
The frist word if the name is "Admiral" which is being ignored.
I did a test below
When the contact is saved the name disappears and it uses the number as if there was no name

I have just purchase the above PDA (ROM:1.56.721.3 dated 29.08.07) with radio version 1.27.2.11. When I receive a local call from contact, the name of the caller does is not displayed. Only the phone number (7 digits). However, when I receive an SMS, the name of the same caller is displayed. If I remove the country code in the contact number and leave the local number only, then the name of the caller is displayed. In that case, the name is not displayed when I receive and SMS from that contact. Can you please help?
I've got the same problem. After upgrading I imported all my contacts from outlook and the phone doesn't display contact name on receiving a call.
I created a contact using the phone contacts app and that is recognised when it is called.
Something different between an imported contact and one created using WM6 contact app?
Anybody know what is going on here?

THis may be a newb question, and i had it set up somehow while running WM2003 but i cant seem to remove the brackets on the numbers that are calling me, so i have to redo about 400 contacts just so that i can get their name on screen while they are calling me
Example:
The phone now whenever someone is calling me it shows (697)6767676 and i want to make it 6976767676,
Help!
dont fret and worry about it...
it's just a display (it's hardcoded in Windows to show the first three in parenthesis) ... the real numbers dont have the any special chars aside from p w +, et. al.
Yes i know its only a display thingamajig, although whenever i get a call from someone it wont show me their name unless i have altered the actual number with so that it contains the brackets in the contact itself :S

None of my contacts have ( ) stored in their numbers, The format I used is +country_code number and every time someone calls me with or without the country code showing it displays the name that corresponds. Example: I have have a contact named Fred Murphy with the number +965 1234567 when he calls if I am in Kuwait it shows only as 123-4567 if I am overseas it shows as +965 123-4567 both times I see his name Fred Murphy on my screen. It has always been this way for me no matter which version of windows I have run. I was not aware that it worked any other way.
You have to choose your regional settings correctly and it will disappear.
settings > system > regional settings.

or
check for duplicate phone number entries...
even though you have the name in the sim and the phone, the phone cant decide which name to show, so our phone shows only the number.
Hello,
I've got Artemis with black&blue v4.0. The problem is that it it stopped showing names from contacts with call history (currently show names for about last 24hours only). Also when I'm entering into specific contact history there are no listed calls which doesn't have names with call history. (i.e. someone called me 5 times with exactly the same number and last 2 calles show names for item, and other ones doesn't.)
What could be a reson of that? And how to fix that?
Thanks.
Hello,
I have HTC one X with the viper rom on it. I have linked my contacts to facebook and gmail accounts . After doing a sync between all of these accounts, I am facing a problem. Some of the phone contacts in which I know them ( the way I saved them on phone ) changed according to the names of facebook accounts.
For example, I have a contact named ( Ta ) which I have linked to the facebook account ( Natasha ), after doing this and after making a sync, I no longer can see the ( Ta ) person on my phonebook because now it is named Natash which is confusing.
Another example, I have a contact named ( A ) which holds the number 123456789. I also have a facebook account that has the same number on its information lets name it ( CC) .
Now, When the number 123456798 calls me , the phone says ( CC ) is calling you while I want the phone to display that ( A ) is calling you !!!
How can I solve this problem while still keep linking the accounts.
In the people app, open the contact you want to change, select Edit Contact, and select the name in the top left corner - you'll get a drop-down to choose the name you want to use for that contact.
Edit: that's for the same contact with different names on different accounts. The second example sounds like you've got two different people with the same telephone number; I'm not sure how you'd edit which one shows by default when that phone number calls you. Maybe add the country dialling code to one of the phone numbers, since I assume that will have to be different if they aren't sharing a telephone line.

first problem solved , Thanks :good:
second problem :
indeed , it is like I have two persons having the same number ( one on the phone , and one on facebook ) , the phone Automatically chooses as default to display the name on facebook.
I have a problem with the watch when they call me it does not show me my full name nor does it move to the left to show it. In other words, it shows me the name and two or three letters from the surname.
