If your watch show only caller number and contact name as "unknown contact", try to set phone language to english.
I set phone language to english (from slovak language) and watch show caller ID correctly.
After set phone language back to slovak, watch show again "unknown contact".
I sent in-app feedback, hope they fix it in some future update.
(Sorry my english)
Hello. Language was already in English on my phone and could not get the contact name on the watch when I was receiving calls. I tried several language changes as you proposed and got back to English, but still no "contact name" displayed.
I finally solved the problem by disconnecting the bluetooth and pairing again the watch with BT. The moment the pairing is required on the phone, there is a small box to tick just below asking if you allow the contact details to be transfered with the BT connection. I checked the box and now I'm having contact name displayed on my GTR2 when phone rings
I have the same issue with GTS 2 on my Iphone, specifically Whatsapp calls can't identify a caller, while the name shows after the call is done in Notifications. Anyone knows how to solve this issue plssss?

OK, I receive an SMS, it shows me the time received (I know this already as it makes a noise - I recorded a wav file of my Nokia 6310 going beep-beep,,,beep-beep), but when was the SMS sent? I select details on the message and in the Sent: field it shows me - the time received!!
This is either a bug or I am psychic and turn my phone on every time my girlfriend SMS's me. Am I the next Uri Geller or is there a fix?
This is no use!!
Suggestions, ladies and gentlemen?
(....and I STILL can't get PhonExt to play the right ring tones for callers, its ALWAYS the default ring!!!!!)
Hello,
I'm facing the following problem: My Android based (Gingerbread) smartphone has a number of contacts with several phone numbers (home, work, mobile etc.) for each. When I call a contact the call goes through the mobile operator and I'm charged for the call by him.
I also have an an Asterisk-based PBX with a FCT (Fixed Cellular Terminal, or GSM Dialer or Fixed Wireless Terminal) connected to a VOIP provider that charges much less. If I prefix a phone number in Contacts with a fixed string (containing the mobile number to the SIM card in the FCT, plus some pause, plus the password to access the PBX's dial tone plus a bit more of pause) it works fine.
What I'm looking for is a way to have this standard prefix string stored somewhere and it be automatically padded at the beginning of each number dialed. Ideally, when dialing a contact I would be asked if I wanted to call with or without the standard prefix.
Is that doable?
All help is very much appreciated.

After further searching I've come across an app found on Android Market called Prefixer, by 253below.com. It does everything I want and much more. Maybe this info will help some one else looking for this.
Hello
I need a little help please...
i have configured the follow rule für incoming calls:
When numbers matches:
\+49535111222.*
remove characters:
\+49535111
Add number to call log:
prefixer number
other preferences are default.
i will like to see the 222 at a incoming call on the calling sreen, but i dont see it.
In the call log is the correct number 222, but dont on the calling sreen, there is only the android calling number with all caracters

Hi Tobi,
I'm afraid I can't help with your problem as I've only used Prefixer for padding a prefix to outgoing calls, according to filters. However, they have a forum running at the developer's site (253below.com) and you should be able to have your questions replied there.
Finally after 30 min trials with this method I got the Tango udate on my HTC Mozart.
On the Phone:
1. Wi-Fi switch off
2. Cellular / Data connection switch off
3. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5NgK0eM7X3s&feature=player_embedded
After 50 times trying I got version 7.10.8112.7
Now repeat step 3.
...and after 3 times trying I got the version 7.10.8773.98
But without many features:
- no Slovenian keyboard
- no Slovenian display language
- no SMS/Atach Item / VOICE NOT
- no Export contacts to SIM
- no Network Call settings for Call forwarding
(forward all calls,when i don´t answer,when i am busy....)
- no Network SMS settings for Character set
- no GPS Location alert icon
......
So just adding more pictures in messaging...?
I don´t understand this upadate or Tango. Frustrated.
:crying:
Do you have a better explanation of what's in the video? very hard to see what is happening there, is it turning data off on PC connection?
head to this article to get easy steps
how to force zune player for tango update
In the video, you see how to disconnect the Ethernet Network Adapter after you pressed the Update.
I restored my HTC Mozart back to the version of Mango and then using the same method back to Tango 7.10.8773.98
Again, same song.
During the installation has been written you get this feature Export contacts to SIM.
But again I did not get It and some others....well.
Is this the fault of our region or forced update...
I don´t know.
Microsoft will have to explain.
(OK, all languages for keyboard and display are not yet available in Tango)

Updated my russian Mozart with the same method.
I have full Russian support
-SMS attach is present, but voice note is missing.
-Export contacts to SIM is missing
-"Network" tab in Settings menu (like in this video) is missing too (so does enhanced call forwarding / character set)
-GPS icon is missing too
Maybe you don't have Slovenian support because of Microsoft doesn't have Slovenian language package yet.
It seems to me that this is not only an independent problem
Even in Germany they have some problems with Nokia to
-export contacts to SIM and
-GPS Location alert icon
http://answers.microsoft.com/de-de/...bb?msgId=43842048-d080-462f-b75c-bd4f69ed6f51
And on the website of Windows Phone "Help and how-to / Browsing + maps"
for GPS Location alert icon says "This icon might not appear on all phones and depends on your phone manufacturer."

The microphone icon is greyed out on my gear s keyboard and I can't use voice to text which was a great feature on my gear 2 for sending quick texts. Does anyone know how to fix this?
I'm sure it isn't this but. ... If you're disconnected from the phone you'll need mobile data enabled on the G S
Also look in the keyboard settings in the gear s settings/language menu.

I'm connected to my phone 99% of the time with Bluetooth and have my mobile data set to auto. Went through keyboard settings on gear s and didn't find anything
And you've already opened and set up S-Voice on the connected phone?
Yes, I use s voice frequently on my phone
In the watch settings for Keyboards and Input do you have the Samsung keyboard selected?
Yes and the microphone is greyed out on all 3 of the Samsung keyboards on the device
(Fix) microphone greyed out
I had this same issue... Samsung was no help. The problem is that the default language on the Gear S doesnt match your default language on your phone.
On the watch... you can't manually change the default language under settings-language and input. On your phone... go to settings-language and input. Check the very top bar. That language needs to be set to United States or another language that s-voice recognizes. In my case, the watch was stuck on (Canada) but my Note 3 didn't have a "Canada" option.
Assuming that you are using a Samsung phone...download Language Enabler from the Play Store...load English United States and set as your default. The watch will automatically change and everything will work. Hope that helps.
That app needs root unfortunately but I do see that the language on the gear s is English Canada and in the s voice app on the phone it is English us
Any other ideas?

I'm having the same issue as you. Wish there was an answer to this.
Me 2, still haven't figured it out
OK, here is the solution.
When I was having the same issue, my phone language was set to English (Australia), S Voice on my phone was set to English (US), language on my watch was set to English (Australia) and S Voice on my watch was set to English (AU). I changed them all to English (US) as there is no English (AU) for S Voice, and the mic works.

I have changed everything to English us but on the watch it won't let me change the language, it says English Canada but you can't select it to change it.
I think there are 2 different gear s models, the sm-r750w which is for Canada and the sm-r750 for the US which might explain why I can't change the language on the watch, even tried a factory reset with no luck.

Thanks, this solved it for me, except I used English UK for all settings and now works fine. this was driving me mad and wishing I had an Android Wear based watch. Still S Voice has a bit to go to be as good as Google Now/Voice.
I am new here but have switched all electronics to Samsung and good so far although I am having the same problem. I tried to switch the language to english UK except on s voice on gear s as it does not show up as a language option. I tried to go to gear app on my note 4 and download the uk option and it does not show up in the Samsung app? Is there a way to find it or is there another language that will support the mic option?
Thanks!
Amazfit Pace on standard ROM. When people call, only the number shows, not the name. This seems to be because the app doesn't pick up the contact name if the number has been stored with the international dialling code, which all of mine have. For example, if I store my home number as 020 12345678 it works and shows home when I can, if I store it as +44 20 12345678 then it doesn't show the name, just the number.
Is there any way to address this without removing the country code from all contacts?
No.
The app shows the name to the number that your provider sends to you, exactly that number.
Damn that's annoying, this is pretty much a showstopper for me - one of the main features I like about smartwatches is the ability to screen calls from it, and if possible drop them directly from the phone.
I found a solution to this problem with Amazfit support. If any one else will have the same problem, this was solution for me:
- Go to phone settings, apps and choose Amazfit, then go to Permissions and disable everything, then enable everything.
- Restart phone and watch.
- Caller ID then started to work.
Thanks, but it didn't work. Numbers that match exactly are ok, but if the number is stored with a country code and the person calls from the same company, it doesn't.
