I can't help but think this is a dumb question, but I've searched for the answer here as well as trawled through the phone settings without luck.
When I receive a call, the caller id offers me the name of the person calling, so long as they are inthe contacts list of course :wink:
However, received SMS messages remain unresolved and I'm given a semi-useless phone number. We all know what a pain it can be trying to fit a name to a number......
SO guys, what am I missing here ?
Thanks in advance.....

From Paragon Software there is a small patch to fix this.
Try Searching for Paragon at this forum or /and google

Hi
I have not been able to send any sms messages with my xda. I managed to receive them ok but whenever I tap on "New", the message choice doesn't come out and and I could not even compose a message. I am with vodaphone and has unlocked the phone with xda manipulator and I have checked under options that I do have the settings for sms mailbox correct.
Can anybody help please?
Thanks
Vic
Hi all,
Though nobody seemed to know the answer, I got the problem sorted out by cold booting. Somehow some important files must have been erased and now I got full functionality of the sms.
Hope this thread helped somebody.
Cheers

I couldn't reply on my xda for a while.
when the name quotes come up eg {"contact a", +4471234567890}
i had to remove all the extras to just leave the bare number.
the wonderful world of XDA random problems...
Hi Guys,
Just a quick question regarding contacts. I sync with my outlook contacts at work, when i try and send a sms i press the contacts button. The thing is, it shows me an entry for each type of number
ie
Ali 07833454543
Ali +442078763345
Ali [email protected]
so thats three entries for one person !... as you can imagin it makes the list very long.
is there anything i can do, so that it just shows one line for each person, but when you select it, it shows the other numbers?
thanks
Ali
any ideas chaps?
a no would do :roll:
Mine does the same mate - don't know how to resolve it, SMS Name doesn't fix it that's for sure, and I've loaded SER 1.2 now... I guess it's 'cos you're using multiple service types, you have to see the different addresses (POP3/SMS)
in outlook, are your contacts displayed correctly?
What would be REALLY intelligent would be some way to have a shortcuts or "speed dial" list for SMS addressing. I only send SMS to a half-dozen people out of my 225 contacts. It would have been smart to allow you to address an SMS with the speed dial contact or some other list.
Any developers want to create some software for this? Guaranteed I'll buy it.

hi
in ppc 2003 you dont have to find the contact by pressing the contacts iclon you just type there name in and it gives you options on the name also it has a character counter so you know how many you have typed. it also seems to run faster and my battery seems to last longer. i havent set the internet up yet but i will this coming week.

I have just got myself a XDA unlocked and using it on T-Mobile. My question is, when i receive call from contacts in my address book it shows who is calling, but when i receive a text message from the same person, it just shows the number and not their name. Can anyone tell me what I need to do to make it show their name because I don't understand why it isn't?
Thanks
Dr :? :?
I have sorted it myself thanks!
Hi ...
if you are happy with your current ROM you can got to www.yorch.net and search for "SMS patch" at applications section, or you can cook a new ROM that has this fix already.
Thanks for that, cheers
all sorted now

Hi guys,
Do you know any good sms spam blocking application for wm6? Could you recommend any?
Thanks,

I don't think the networks have the facility to block/reject sms's like calls, if your phone rejects or doesn't respond with the network regarding the sms the messages will keep on being sent until it is received and the phone say's it has been received. The best you could do is find a program that will automatically delete the message for you, and there are one or two out there..
Could you please provide a few names, so far i've tried SMSrules but it fails to launch on my Samsung Valencia with Remora 3.0 ROM.
here you go
the best and free!
it blocks calls,fowards or rejects calls with a reply sms
and yes it blocks sms as well
Thanks for the prompt reply but i'm afraid i cannot see any link in your previous post. Is there something I'm missing?

Hey all. Sorry if this was already been asked before but I couldn't find it anywhere. Not even on google search. It seems like no one ever tried it or something.
Well, my question is, is there a way to send and receive Gmail SMS on phone? There's no way to forward it and it doesn't show up on Gtalk either. I'm asking this because it has international SMS feature that has very low cost for other countries to reply.
Does anyone know any app that can forward this feature from Gmail chat to phone? Even tho my phone support flash and java, it . Is there a work around?
Thank you,
