caller name

just started using 7610, great phone. Caller ID on incoming calls only shows phone number, not name as listed and entered in contacts - am I missing something here? 😉

still having the problem. Caller ID # comes up but no name despite the fact that its in the contact list! is there some setting I haven't turned on/off?

There are no settings for such behaviour. And it works fine on my 7610. 😉

All I can think of, is that there still is a duplicate number somewhere (check also for numbers in international format vs. not; they'd be counted as the same number, I think).

when the person is calling you....does the number on display match IDENTICALLY to the number in your contacts list....i had the same problem untill i realized all incoming calls have a 1 in front of the area code.......

It should. For example, I name a contact "Kate Jackson". When she calls me ... the name is displayed as "Jackson Kate" ... flashing and vibrating ...

I think i had the same problem when i first got my fone but from what i remember i had to copy the contacts from my sim into my fone memory then it was fine.

that works.
