As I have too many records with same name in my phonebook, I had to classify my records according to organization names.
I am not able to see the organization name on calling screen, that is why I tried to use some 3rd party apk (drupe, smart notify etc.), but I am dissatisfied.
Is there any way to edit the orginial contact apk (or to replace another apk) in order to see the organization name on incoming call.
Thank you for your help in advance.

Hi,
I have all my Google contacts logically split into groups ie work, friends, family etc.
What I'd like to do is be able to leave the phone on after work and be able to divert all work calls to voice mail for example.
Is there a way to do this on the phone natively ?
TIA,
Arfer
Not possible to send to voicemail at selected times natively.
Think I've not been clear enough.Want I'm after is to be able to have groups go to voicemail while other groups work normally ie the phone rings
Cheers,
Arfer
The best anyone has suggested to me is this:
Mr. Number
https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...i5ibG9ja2VyIl0.
This doesn't do what I want as it means making whitelists / globally all contacts as filters.
it's along the right lines but is no longer being developed and not for use Gingerbread onwards.
Can't believe this most obvious and helpful of functions is not available or that people aren't hollering out for it.
Everyone of my friends I've asked about this all once I've explained it are amazed it's not available.
Why have groups within Google contacts unless they provide useful functionality ?
i would like to mod the mms.apk to not only include the name of the contact but also the type of number it is.
i.e. you can define multiple numbers to each contact and add additional information such as "home", "work", "mobile" etc and i would like to display that information next to thw contact's name.
does anybody know what that information is called, i.e. what string to use to display that information?
whatsapp does it as wellm when you start a new conversation it shows you notnonly the contacrs name but also which number you are going to start a conversation with.
hope someone can help me out
Hello there,
Does anyone know if there is an Xposed module that can add a person's company name (from the address book) on the incoming call screen?
Alternatively, would anyone be interested in making one?
Thank you!
They can take the name from the Google account. Thant's my opinion.
Hi, it is nice to have the caller name instead of just the phone number. But this requires to have the caller name inside your Android contact list.
Is there a way (app or hack) to have the caller name without having to add it in your Android contact list?
Use case: I am an employee inside a 120 employee company and I would like to get the name of the caller for each employee, but I do not want to have them into my Android contact list, as I only work with some of them and have also friend&family so I do not want my address book to become unreadable because of these 120 employee contacts.
Regards, Chris
Actually, my wife just experienced this. She contacted the Disney help desk and got her business taken care of. After that a friend asked us for the number. She went to find it in recent calls and passed by it because their number was listed as "Dumbo the Flying Elephant"
I can't tell you how they did it, but it's certainly possible.
I think your experience with Disney is due to a public caller name. I don't want a public caller name, I just would like a secondary contact address book only used for phone caller naming.
Honestly after about 5 minutes I hated this phone and now 3 months later i'm considering giving up completely as I find it horrendous to use.
I have changed my default Dialler as the standard is horrid yet every incoming call still doesn't use the app I have chosen.
My issue is, if I have a contact saved as ABC LTD, then multiple custom numbers under the contact as Bob Mobile, Matt Mobile, Service etc.. when incoming calls come in it just shows ABC LTD then 'United Kingdom'... I don't care that its United Kingdom I want to know if its Bob Mobile, Matt Mobile etc! I have to take a guess at remembering the last three digits of the mobile or landline number to try and ID who it is.
Do find this such a simple feature yet so annoying it doesn't appear.
If i was to then go into the app I have downloaded for Dialling, then it can show me it was Bob etc... but NEVER on incoming.
If I remember well, my ex Samsung S8+ did the same when multiple numbers are stored into the same contact, only the phone number was displayed, no accessory information or notes about the calling number.
But in my case I'm using the internal phone contact list, not Google's.
I think what you are describing is stock Android behavior and not something specific to Huawei--if you have multiple numbers saved under a single contact the dialer will only display the contact name.
What phone did you previously use that showed the specific caller ID rather than the saved contact? Or were you relying on a third party dialer to perform that function for you?
And if it's so vital that the identity of each number shows up separately why do you have them all saved as a single contact in the first place?
