9300i stops displaying names in text messages

I have a 9300i phone and until two days ago it displayed the text sender's name for received messages. Now it displays the number. This is happening with all messages and they are in my address book with the correct number.
If i select a text message and press 'call sender' it then displays the number and also the name from my contacts.
I don't remember changing any settings.
Has anyone experienced this before?
Is there a setting I can check to turn on name resolution?
Thanks, Stu.

no, it was very strange i rebooted the phone twice and that didnt work.
I was typing a text message and it bombed, and when it came back up again it seems to be working properly now.
That is, i've had two texts and it shows both names correctly. I'll have to see how it goes.

How do I disable my Apple ID as my display name for text messages?

I recently purchased the Macbook Pro with retina display and now when I send text messages from my phone or computer it displays my Apple ID instead of my name to the recipient. I have tried changing the settings with iMessage on my macbook but it won't go away. How can I disable this feature?

you will need to login to

Why does the display name in older messages change if I update my address book for that E-mail address?

I have recently installed Thunderbird 24.5.0 after upgrading a WinXP machine to Win7. I have discovered a strange problem with older mail that was imported from Outlook Express 6.
The pastor of my church uses a generic E-mail address <[email protected]>. This address belongs to the position, not to an individual. We recently had a new pastor come to the church, and I updated my entry for this E-mail address to reflect the new person's name. This is fine for new mail sent since the new person arrived, but Thunderbird has also applied the new name to older mail from the previous pastor. This is very confusing, since the current pastor could not have sent mail from that address prior to her start date.
How can I get Thunderbird to stop changing the Display Name in archival messages that were sent by the previous pastor prior to September 01, 2013? I have not encountered this situation before using Netscape 4.x Mail, Outlook Express 6, and Windows Mail (Vista version).

Of course it does. It looks for a match between the sender's email address and a Contact in your address book. You've edited the Display Name for this account so it gets applied to any message with that email address if that's how your Address Book is configured.
In the Contact card for this address, you can tell it whether or not to use the "real" email address within the message, or the Display Name from your Address Book. Telling it to use the name found in the message ''might'' resolve this, but it depends on how the sender has formatted it. If he includes his name then Thunderbird should be able to resolve it, and you just add both configurations to your Address Book as two separate Contacts, rather than modifying the existing entry.
However, in this situation you're using the same email address for two distinct people, so Thunderbird may not be able to know who sent the old messages. If both have sent using "rector@stpeterscobourg.org" without any personalization then Thunderbird won't be able to differentiate between them.
I have to say that I haven't recently tried using different display names with the same email address, so I don't know for sure if TB can use the display name constructively. If there's nothing in the old messages to tell you which sender wrote them, then TB can't do anything about it.

IPhone 4 iOS 5.0.1 stops receiving calls and text messages

Hi all,
My iPhone 4 (iOS 5.0.1) suddenly stopped receiving calls and text messages. However, I'm still able to send them.
The workaround for fixing this issue is to make an hard reset to the iPhone.
This only occured with 5.0.1 version. It's very annoying because I'm not able to know if it's working or not (I can only suppose that it's not working when I'm a long period without receiving calls/messages)
Do you know how to solve this ?
Thanks in advance!

First, who really cares what you do? I certainly don't, and I doubt the vast majority of users on this forum don't either. Ridiculous statements like that just make you look stupid.
Second, this is a user to user technical support forum. I saw a lot of whine here, not a question. What is your technical support question?

Difficult to input train-stop display-name

Hi, experts,
In jdev 11.1.2.3,
When i try to input train-stop display-name in the Property inspector palette,
I do have input the name string (and leave mouse from the Display name field to ID field) and click the save button in jdev,
but infact this display name has not been saved, next time when i come back from some where to view it, it's empty.
And I have stopped the running of app, the computer is OK(not hanging), jdev can do other works. but this issue happens several time today (some time it can work), rather difficult to input display name.
(This issue also happens sometime on VO's hint field inputs).
Is that a bug of jdev? some one else has met with it? or just a mirage of me?
Thanks.

Hi, Timo and Vinay
Yes, I do have tried press enter key or leave the mouse to another field on the same pallette.
but the "Save" button didnot enabled, and i have to press the "Save all" button. and cannot be saved in fact.
This issue not always happens, but i have met many times today.
Thanks.

Have you tried phoning these muppets? Sorry but your suggestion is as obtuse as the Orange/EE website. Is there no other way? can it be done on the website? The whole package is a bag of *h*te!

Unfortunately messaging has stopped and not receiving text messages

I, am also having issues with "unfortunately messaging has stopped", AND, NOT receiving text messages. I also have 2 other Droid Ultra's on my account doing the same thing. This is totally unacceptable!!! I am not paying $600 for a piece of crap phone that does not work. I had my phone recently replaced because Verizon thought that was the problem. I can't even get the message screen to stay up long enough to type a message, if it opens at all!
Also I am getting tired of NOT receiving messages sent to me! When I do get them, the icon tells me I have a message with a number usually no more than a designation of 2 but reverts back to a 1, and, when I open the message, read it, and close out of it, if it does not close out on its own because of stopped messaging, the number on the message icon does not clear out. I have to turn off the phone and restart it to clear it. This is not acceptable and I would expect better from Verizon, not the run around!! If I had to send an urgent message and get a reply, do to the fact I am disabled, and this is my only way to communicate, that this is extremely unacceptable!!!!
I expect this to be resolved yesterday, not when you all get around to it, OR, issue me a Samsung!!! I am sure all of the others would agree!!!
I look to hear from you ASAP!!

Hello,
I am using the messaging app that was preloaded with the phone, the green face icon. I do not have an "Android Keyboard" app, but I have cleared the cache on the "Messaging" app, several times. I have also gone to the Verizon store where an associate did a soft reboot, telling me that would work. A very short time later, the error message started appearing again--so this did not work either.
The error message comes very sporadically. Sometimes several in a few minutes, other times not for hours.

My iphone has locked up displaying a received text message and also a radio station app. I can't get it to restart by pushing and holding the on/off button. Any suggestions to try?

Hold the home button and the Sleep/Wake button ignoring the slide to power off message until the phone turns off then you can repower it by pressing and holding the sleep/wake button for a few seconds until the apple logo appears.

IOS5 displaying phone number instead of name in text message screen

At the top of the text message screen, where it used to say the recipient's name, it now says their phone number. I cannot find any settings as to change this. It happens to others who have iMessage on. If they do not have an iPhone, or their iMessage is off, it still says their name.

I fixed this problem by:
1. Turn iMessage off
2. Turn iMessage on
3. Verify contact is in contact list
4. Deleting the text message series prior to the one you want to send. Say you've texed Bob Dole 1000 times, delete the entire thread. Then, hit new message, load Bob Dole from contacts, and send.
For me, this ended the above problem.

Non display of senders name on text messages

Hi
On my Nokia 1100 when I recieve a text from a contact in my address book, the phone DOES NOT display their name, only their number.
How can I set the phone so that it displays names?
Thanks!!
Richard

Is this the same with incoming / outgoing calls? If so, chances are the number's in your memory twice - possibly in the Sim memory and Phone Memory - delete one, then see if their names show up. (Make a note of it first just incase it's not and you lose it)

Tomcat web.xml "display-name" using flex.messaging.MessageBrokerServlet

       Hello,
When my web application starts with the BlazeDS servlet flex.messaging.MessageBrokerServlet defined in the web.xml we have an error because in the display-name defined at top level in web.xml we have some text containing character ':'. The error is traced to inside the function
         flex.management.BaseControl.getObjectName()
Which gets the object name, and this function calls
   BaseControl.getApplicationId()
which finally calls
ServletConfig.getServletContext().getServletContextName()
This will return or display-name from the web.xml with all it's text. This text contains among other characters the character ':'. We use this tag for the display in the Tomcat Manager to see version number and other of deployed project.
After retrieving this name it is appended in the getObjectName() function to a buffer, this StringBuffer that already contains flex.runtime. and now this name is appended (still with all that we are using for Tomcat Manager with ':' character and other). After the name, other things are appended. Our problem is that, after constructing this StringBuffer an instance of javax.management.ObjectName is created. In it's constructor it takes a String name as input. This String is parsed in base of characters ':', '*', '?', '\n' and so on, and since we have some of these characters in our display-name it all goes wrong.
   My question is, if this is a bug, a limitation or if it is documented that using flex.messaging.MessageBrokerServlet we can not use certain characters in the display-name of the web.xml?
   Greetings, Tim

I have found that this is a bug and there is an issue open at the "Adobe Bug and Issue Management System", BLZ-617. I don't know if work is in progress, but when that issue is closed the problem will be solved.

IPhone not showing contacts names in text messaging after sync AND reset

Three days ago, I bought the iPhone 4S as an updgrade from the 3GS. I also transferred my wireless service plan from AT&T to Verizon. Since doing that, very strange things are happening. For example, my contacts appeared to transfer without a problem, but whenever I attempt a call to a number that does not have a "1" stored in front of it, it tells me that I am attempting a long-distance or international call and the call won't go thru unless I place a 1 in front of the number and store it that way. Also, whenever I send text messages and someone replies, their message comes back to my phone under the phone number only and not the name that is stored in my contacts. This happens even when the contact sends a direct message to me that is not a reply. (Imagine all the "Merry Christmas" messages I received yesterday that I have no idea who they were from, except the 5 out of 300 contacts whose numbers I have memorized!!) I have gone to the Apple Store and the "Genius" there reset my phone, which temporarily fixed the problem, but now it is back. I did a soft reset, now it randomly selects which names will show up in my text message window. (For example, yesterday, the name "Jane" shows a message that says "Merry Christmas", but after the reset, only Jane's number shows up in the text screen with the same message from yesterday.)
Does anyone know what in the world is going on?? This is Very Annoying! I'm tempted to go back to AT&T, as I am being told that the iphone technology, even for 4S, is not as compatible on Verizon as it is with AT&T. Please help!

Not sure about the random contact name problem. I suspect a bad database. Use iTunes to delete and replace your contacts with a good list. If that doesn't work, do a 100% software reset and don't restore a backup, setup as a new device. Finally, if that fails go back to the apple store. The issue is not software fixable and the unit should be replaced.
The other issue with 1 dialing required... are you roaming? Disable wifi, should say Verizon 3G in the status bar.
When you are off your home area cell network, you are not dealing with Verizon directly.
Edit: your last question about using a Verizon 4S on AT&T's network. You are correct, out of the box the Verizon 4S is locked to only work on Verizon's network. The AT&T 4S and Sprint 4S have the same locks. You can purchase an unlocked iPhone directly from apple. I've also heard of people convincing Sprint customer service to unlock their phones for use out of the country,
