Due to law restrictions UK can´t be supported at the moment but there is UK available in the list now but only for displaying area codes of the incoming phone number. For instance, if you receive a call from 021745500, TrueCaller will display that the number belongs to someone in Bradford, United Kingdom.
Is this full or beta version

Hello,
I've installed the WM6-Rom and aktivated des passwordprotection... no I recognized, when typing the passwords there is a text "Emergency phone calls can be made"... but it works only with "911" (because the rom is US) but in Germany the emergency-call-number is "110". Does anyone know how to change 911 to 110?
perhaps it could be integrated in the "German Language Changer CAB"...

it's a registry entry if I recall rightly; you can just add the emergency number to the list, someone else probably remembers what it is, if you search for it, you'll find it.

I thought as part of the GSM spec, that the international emergency number of 112 should always be dialable and work in every country, no matter what the local number actually is.

That is true. For emergency calls, the phone doesn't even dial the number the user enters. Instead, the phone recognizes the number and initiates a special emergency call set-up procedure which is different from the normal call setup - for example, even if a GSM cell is completely in use by other calls, you can still make an emergency call, as the network will randomly terminate one of the normal calls to free a slot.
So dialling 112 should work everywhere in the world since the network never "sees" that number. If it doesn't, the phone is in violation of the GSM standard.
Btw, in Germany 112 gets you the fire brigade and ambulance. For police you have to dial 110, and that is *not* recognized as an emergency call (in the sense described above) by the phone.

Hey Guys!
I'm having some issues in contact identification in Brazil and would like to know if you share the same problems in other countries. (And, .:hopefuly:., if you have a solution for this)
In Brazil, to make long distance phone calls we have to store our contacts number in this format:
0 + Operator + Area Code + Phone Number
For short distance calls, you could use just the phone number or the "full" number with the zero, operator and area code numbers.
Considering this, I've always had my contacts full numbers stored in my phone in case that if I go to another area code, I'll still be able to call my contacts from my city and from somewhere else.
The problem is: Whenever I get a SMS / MMS, the operator send the number in the following format (with a missing operator no.) and the phone won't recognize it as being a contact number.
0 + Area Code + Phone Number
I used to have nokias phones (n95, e71), motorola's, etc. and they all were capable to identify the contacts in SMS and phonecalls. I'm probably doing something stupid with my phone here.
It may be relevant:
Phone numbers in brazil: 8 digits
Area codes: 2 digits
Operators: 2 digits
ps.: If I misused the "operator" word, you can undestand it as being like "Sprint", "Verizon", "O2" and other companies that may provide you with long distance services. Eg. I could be a sprint user and use verizon's long distance service.
What your operator?
Thx

My current phone operator is TIM - Brasil - São Paulo (11)
Every SMS I get has the phone number in this format:
0 + Area Code + Phone Number
Does android allow some sort of "default" operator for every phone call?
I'm having the same problem with my phone, I'm also a TIM subscriber.
The only (flawed) solution that I've found is to store the same number again but without the operator code.
Still hoping to find a better solution. Anyone out there can help us?!?
I use the MagiCall 2.2.4. my operator TIM.

That's exactly what I'm doing.
Couldn't find Magicall for android. Just WinMo.
My phone operator in Brazil is Vivo and I store all my phone numbers in the following format:
0 + area code + phone number
Because I ommited the operator code, Vivo assumes its default code. This way, the numbers stored in my phone are good for short and long distance calls, and the caller identification also works for SMS and MMS.
I'm not sure that applies to TIM though.
Of course what I suggested is just a workaround. This seems to be a known issue in Android:
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=1673
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=1250
http://groups.google.com/group/android-platform/browse_thread/thread/0e5286ce14aba5b2
You could vote for the issues.
TIM doesn't have a "default" operator service. That's why we have this problem.
I think Claro and VIVO does. As soon as I get out of this contract, I'll migrate to other provider.
I have the same problem here.
You guys found any solution beside switching operators?
Nope.... Right now I'm a very happy vivo user.
However, it seems that the sim card is the one responsible to automatically add an operator number. Every time I call someone without the operator I get this message indicating that the sim card has changed the mumber automatically.
I wonder if we could add an program into TIM's simcards to act like other companies do.

I installed a program called Right Number.
All my contacs are in the format: 0 + Area code + Number (01191234567)
When you make a call, the program adds the operator number of your like.
And when you receive a call, the phone will recognize the contact.
I recomend!
I have unlimited international texting package on my phone. All my contacts numbers are in international format. E.g.:
• US numbers are +1-ccc-nnn-nnnn (ccc = area code. nnn = the phone number)
• UK numbers are +44-7ccc-nnn-nnn.
• SA numbers are +27-8c-nnn-nnn.
I was using an EVO on a personal account and had no problem sending to my friends in UK, Albania, Germany, South Africa and Australia. Int'l texting worked great for a few months now. I then converted to a business account and got a Photon on a new line; switched the int'l texting package to that phone. Sprint CS verified that it is indeed active on the Photon line.
Whenever I send an int'l SMS I always get this message from sender 9230: "Message sent to invalid destination. Please check your number and try again. Msg 2127".
I phoned Sprint CS and my issue has been escalated up to Tier 3 support at the int'l dept. They have asked if I have included 011 in front of my number.
Therefore, the numbers to send the int'l SMS would be:
• UK numbers 011-44-7ccc-nnn-nnn.
• SA numbers 011-27-8c-nnn-nnn.
It seems, if I send a message to a friend in UK this way, he gets the message, but if I use international format for my numbers, I get the 9230 error message.
I really don't want to have to change 200+ contacts by adding 011 prefix to all my numbers. Having all my numbers in international format is great for when I travel. The + symbol will be the international dialing prefix depending on the country: US is 011, Europe is 00.
Seeming as the int'l messages worked fine on the EVO 4G, could it possibly be an error on the Photon's side of things in the way it is interpreting the international format prefix +?
While I wait for an answer from Sprint Int'l department, can anyone verify if this happens with them on their Photons?
Thanks
I have actually never encountered such problem. Although, the only international texts I have sent to is to Hong Kong. All my phone numbers are in +852 xxxx xxxx as it were supposed to be.
Right off my mind (Although I'd be surprised Sprint hasn't suggested this yet), you might want to check Settings -> Call Settings -> Plus Code Dialing Setting, and make sure the checkbox is set, the the dialing code is set to 011?
Thanks for the heads up, but my settings were the default:
Under the Plus Code Dialing settings:
Domestic Dialing IS checked
International Dialing & Messaging code: 011
Evo 4G LTE
I'm having this same problem with my Evo LTE. I imported all of my contacts and SMS history from my Desire, which I had used in Germany for the last 2 years.
A bunch of the numbers don't work. I tried updating a few numbers of people I SMS frequently, but it didn't solve the problem. It looks like any thread that was STARTED with an international number defaults back to that number any time I SMS in that thread, or even respond to an SMS from that contact. Even when the incoming number shows up in U.S. (xxx) xxx-xxxx format, I still get a 2127 error for replies.
Is there any way to enable this option? I've updated to the latest 12070 and although I still can't see it in the ease of use menu
Can't believe something as simple as this is missing, my N97 had it.
I believe your lumia should have it but some carriers have decided to remove the feature:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsphone/en-us/howto/wp7/basics/use-speech-on-my-phone.aspx
To turn on Speech for accessibility, tap SettingsSettings icon > Ease of access, and then turn on On iconSpeech for phone accessibility. This enables the following:
•
Talking caller ID for phone calls. When you get a call, your phone will announce the name or number of the caller.
To have your phone announce and read incoming text messages, tap Settings > Speech, and then turn on On icon Play audio confirmations. Tap Read aloud incoming text messages, and then choose when you want to hear the announcements—all the time, or only when using a Bluetooth and/or a wired headset.
3
When your phone announces an incoming text, you can say "Read it" or "Ignore." Then you can dictate and send a reply.
Notes:
Speech may not be available in your country or region.

That's from the MS Page.
So assuming that's the case, if I de-brand the phone the phone I should get the option back?
I was looking for a similar thing. My European 059J3G4 (RM-801 EU NDT EURO1) Lumia 800 doesn't have the option under settings either. And I'm pretty sure this is unbranded.
Speech options are only available in English... Put your phone in English and you should have the options.

It is in english, I've tried flashing to stock nokia firmware and now the menu option has completely dissappeared!
Is it possible to registry edit the phone to reveal the option?
I have discovered that this feature was removed in the European version of the firmware, would it be safe for me to flash a US region version to my European phone or is this risky due to hardware differences?
Does anyone have any further suggestions? Nokia are giving me the run around.
Hi,
I live in Europe, at the border between 3 countries and I visit friends quite frequently in the other 2 countries. On those occasions, I need to be able to make international calls. The rest of the time I would like to restrict outgoing international calls. More than few times, I have dialed by accident one of my contacts abroad when I am in my country. For this reason, I don't want to call back and for by carrier to block international numbers.
Is there any app that can let me restrict outgoing international calls whenever I want?
I have a rooted phone using CM10.
Cheers,
I found the perfect app for my request. I used the app called Call Blocker
