wrong phone number

hi people,
recently I ve figure it that when I send sms, the person which get my sms dont recieve my GSM phone number as a sender number, the SMS show my home number as an origin of the sms.
Also in phone settings on the top of the screen is that phone number, the number of my home and not gsm number as it should be...
Probably I ve set it somewhere and sometime and I cant recall any more, digged thru the wallaby but couldnot find it, as far as I remember long time ago somewhere I clicked that number and mark it as "my number" but cant recall anymore was that on some other phone which probably put that in SIM or that was on the wallaby somwhere...
Please help, how can I change that number, its quite stupid to have that number as a senders number when no one can reply to it coz I have no SMS on the home phone and beside that I dont live with my familiy any more...
Just tested the sim in the other phone... Looks like its in the wallaby somewhere, when I send sms from my ancient nokia 5110 everything is fine :S
In the owner data of the wallaby is phone number from the place where I work, I really dont know the origin of that old home number reported in sms messages :S
Thanks ppl and BR !

Message (SMS) was send from which Nr.?

How do I see from which number a Text Message (SMS) was send?
Here is the problem: A friend of mine wend abroad and is using a different mobile phone number. I saved the new number in the contact file under "Home2 phone". Now, if I recieve a text message I actually dont see were it came from, do I?
(Even after clicking on the Message it opens the contact but shows the mobile phone number, not the one it was send from.)
Thanks for anwser
When receiving the message, all you can see is the name of the sender.
When you click on the contact, it shows you only the mobile phone number because, theoretically you can receive sms messages only from mobile phone numbers. A stationary phone number cannot be used to send sms
Torque77: Wrong. You CAN either send and receive SMS from fixed lines in most EU countries. And Rose can handle it without any problems.
Gipo: Just hit Enter when the received message is selected. Contact card will open with proper sender's phone number highlighted. BTW in threaded messages is enough if you just simply hit "Reply" - it will be sent automatically to correct number. (In fact, every number - even different number of the same contact - creates a new thread).
EDIT: OOPS, you're right. It just shows the card without highlighting the number (having a look I saw a last call, not the message). Then only way is direct reply in the thread then. Nevertheless, it's simple and reliable.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Sorry then. Guess Moldova is waaaay behind and this chapter.
No problem... Just an reminder. Nevertheless, you can't be sure, if it is a phone able to receive it (again - some operators forwards SMS as a voice message then).
At least at the moment you already know, that Rose can send SMS on ANY phone number stored with contact - if you have somebody e.g. with more mobile phones.
Yes, if you just choose a contact in the list and select "SMS" by right-left arrows, the mobile number is used. But if you hit Enter in Addresse field in empty SMS form, select an user, Rose will show you all available phone numbers for the contact and is able to send the message at any of them.
thanks guys

Text Problem

I'm having a weird text message problem.
-Sprint CDMA
-Using Handcent
-Rooted
-Modaco Rom
This has only happened when I text my roomate, who also had a Hero.
If I text her via new text, she won't get it. If she texts me first, and I text her via a reply, or through that thread, she gets it fine. Also, during testing, I noticed I had two threads started, one for the texts I was sending and were failing, and a thread for her texts and my replies. any ideas?
anybody? anybody?
I think people may be investigating. Have you got her number with a "+" and country code infront of her number in one of the conversations?
The one with the country code or the one without may be causing the problem. Let me know which one works, if in fact that is the problem.

[Q] Caller ID

Hi all. I have problem reciving CLIP numbers from my carierr. When I recive call, numbers are presented in format 070xxxxxx, and if my number in my phonebook is writen in international format +38970xxxxxx, the phone cannot recognise the person who calling me. How to solve that ?
Thanks in advanse
Hi,
Had the same problem and the only way I found was to add the international calling prefix to every phone number in every contact entry.
Is this bug in LG software or it is Android limitation?

Very Weird problem with received SMS

Sorry if this is the wrong thread to raise this topic, but didnt know whr else I shud put this.
I bought a sprint motorola photon few days back and programmed it to my CDMA operator (Citycell - Bangladesh). Everything is working fine, got EVDO to work etc.
BUT whenever I receive an SMS from ANYONE or any number, the "0" in sender number is shown as character "D". FOR Example if i get an SMS from 01199800570, it will show I received SMS from D11998DD57D > it has nothing to do with that number being in phonebook or anything. any "0" in sender is shown as "D". as a result i cant even reply to these SMS,
FUNNY thing is, when i click on the sms to read it, the ORIGINAL number with "0"s (01199800570) is shown in the last line as [CB# 01199800570]
I have inspected the mmssms.db. I found 2 fields - ADDRESS (which contains all the phone numbers' 0 replaced by D] and CALLBACK_NUMBER [which contains the actual number]
Now I was wondering -
1. IF thr is anyway to fix it by tweaking system settings or something so that sender's number is received correctly [so that ADDRESS field would have correct numbers]
2. OR if it cant be fixed, if there is anyway to force the SMS app (Conversation.apk) to read Sender's address from CALLBACK_NUMBER field instead of ADDRESS field ...
3. OR ATLEAST can someone kind enuf to provide me with a script that would (when run) access the mmssms.db and change all the "D" in values of address column to "0" ?
This is NOT a photon 4g problem - but with most SPRINT cdma phones. The same thing happens with ANY sprint android - when programmed in different country, 0 is replaced with D in received SMS
THEN again, this is a problem in android version < ics. THE ICS phones that are programmed shows sender's number correctly
AGAIN, this is NOT a problem ONLY with my operator, I heard about similar problem in other countries too
Since ICS shows it fine, that means, thr are work arounds in gingerbread too. OR atleast if we can force the SMS apps to read sender's number from CALLBACK_NUMBER, problems are solved.
I know you guys are the best and if u look into it, it would only take a min of ur time to find a solution ... :angel:
anyone ?????
I have the same problem - using an XT800 with the chinese 2.2 rom
most of the time it works ok but it goes haywire on its own without any apparent reason! having a hard time figuring out the sender of each and every message that comes in, some help/ guidance would be very helpful
TIA
