Add +8 before the phone number anytime I call back someone
I have a Pearl 9100 and I have the following pb:
- let's say somebody calls me with the following number 123 456 7891
- I hit the green button once and 123 456 7891 appears on my screen (so far so good)
- then, when I hit the green button a second time, the call is placed and on my screen I can see the number +8 123 456 7891 and basically it never works !
Has anyone already encountered this type of pb?
thanks for any advice you could give me
Hey Berkejulien,
Welcome to the BlackBerry® Support Community Forums.
The +8 is the country code that is set in phone options , In the Phone application click Menu, Options, Smart Dialling, you can change this to the correct country code here.
Thanks.

Verizon's caller ID delivery system occasionally inserts a 1 before the phone number of the incoming call. The caller ID feature appears to be poorly planned and executed by Verizon. The caller ID feature should display more numerals so the call can be returned. Can the iPhone 6 and all other phone-types on Verizon be configured to omit the 1? This looks like it could be issued as firmware update.
Update - I called the number I was given for "ordering", and got the same phone tree I had the first time I called the number on Verizon's web site. At no point was there an option of "ordering". So I navigated back to FIOS tech support. The guy there said he called "ordering" and confirmed that the right name was in the Verizon directory. I asked him to push the directory entry, and he said he did that. I haven't had a chance to call people and see what shows up on their Caller ID.
I told the support person about the bill collectors calling for {edited for privacy}. He was full of nonsense. He said maybe {edited for privacy}gave out the wrong number. I pointed out it would be pretty hard for {edited for privacy} to put their name in Verizon's Caller ID directory, and maybe {edited for privacy} had my phone number before me. He looked that up and confirmed that my number previously belonged to {edited for privacy}.
I asked the support person if they provide their Caller ID directory to bill collectors, and if I was getting these calls because they have been selling a database that says {edited for privacy} still has my number, which has been my number for nearly two years. The customer support representative WOULD NOT ANSWER THIS QUESTION. All he would say was there is no way for Verizon to control who calls my number. That's not what I asked him.
I am very unhappy with Verizon, and I suspect until I called yesterday, they had my number associated with {edited for privacy} and they have been providing this erroneous information to bill collectors. I understand that each phone provider maintains their own Caller ID database, but I don't think it is credible that some other phone company's caller ID database would be two years out of date without some screw up by Verizon.
No Kudos. I see Google Voice in my future. -

Add country code to phone number automatically
Does iCloud Contacts have the ability to add the country code automatically in front of phone numbers:
e.g. if a phone number is stored as (212)555-3270; does iCloud have a batch update option where it can convert the number to +1(212)555-3270; The user may allow this automatically OR ask to be prompted.Is there a way for me to automatically add the country
code before the phone number for all the contacts
that do not have it?
First, you must have stored somewhere what country each phone number is for. Without this, no automatic method will work.
The obvious place is in the "country" field of each Address Book entry, but keep in mind that you can have multiple addresses & multiple phone numbers for each contact, & it is possible one contact could have addresses and/or phone numbers in more than one country. This makes the problem much more difficult, particularly if there are different labels for different ones of each. (IOW, you could have an "office," a "direct," a "mobile," & a "home" phone, & a "work," a "home" & maybe even a "cabin" or "2nd home" address, not necessarily all in the same country or with an obvious address/phone relationship.)
You also would need to test each phone number to make sure it did not already have a country code entered (to avoid double codes), & some way to mark or otherwise handle entries without a country entry in any address field, with uncertain address/phone relationships, etc.
It is possible to do all this with Applescript, but frankly, even if you already knew a fair amount about scripting, it would probably take you longer to write, debug, & verify the results of applying the script than it would to go through 300 entries by hand, particularly if you use the search box or smart groups to go through the contacts one country at a time.
However, no matter what you try, you can guard against data loss by backing up the Address Book before you start (File -> Backup Address Book) & restoring from the backup if something goes wrong. -
I have an I phone 4s and I have many contacts in my phone. However, when my phone rings or I receive a message. The phone does not show the name of the caller. It only shows the phone number that is calling. I am sure this is a setting problem, but I have checked every setting I can think of. Any suggestions??
If you are a Verizon user try this:
Open the phone and dial *228. This is a Verizon over-the-air programming number.
When the system answer press 1 for "Program or activate your phone"
Wait for the call to disconnect. You should get a prompt stating "Settings updated."
Double tap the Home button to bring up the recently used apps list at the bottom. Locate the Phone, Message, and Contacts apps, swiping if necessary, and press and hold until they jiggle then press the red minus sign to stop them.
Wait a 3-5 minutes.
Try your phone again and see if it's fixed. -
E72 - How to format the phone number on contact
I can't figure out a easy for formatting my contact number to be like (xxx) xxx-xxxx or xxx-xxx-xxxx on e72 instead going to outlook make the changes and re-sync again. I find xxxxxxxxxx hard to read. I thought I found out how to add hypen "ctrl+(" but that basically long dash rather than short dash which you get an error if you try to send message with the phone number having the long dash. It is fine when you call. It is smart enough to strip out non-numerical value. But it is sms is not smart enough to remove it.

The sad thing is that there is an international standard for phone numbers (+xxx) xxx-xxxx which everyone ought to recognise and use. It allows localisation and shortened dialling, but Nokia just want a number string. It's just lazy on thepart of the programmers; since it's a standard, they should have developed the program code once and just inserted it into every phone they produce, and that's not hard.
A poor reflection on Nokia, I'm sad to say.
AFAIK the international standard for telephone numbers (E.164) does not say anything about using spaces, dashes, or brackets in a telephone number.
This may of course make it more "human readable", but claiming that what you want is a standard doesn't make it a standard, and I don't think Nokia (or any other phone manufacturer) should/could implement every single user-specific wish... -
I am unable to locate where to change the phone number that is associated with my itunes account. I have a new number and the old number is no longer accessible by me. I've logged into my iTunes acct and it seems I can only change my appleID itself, my billing address info, and password and things like that. I cannot find where to remove a number and add a new one. I've gone to my mobile devices (iphone, ipad) as well as my mac and I'm getting a bit frustrated with it. I'm sure there's a simple solution and I'm just missing it. Going to settings>messages>send&receive....there is the old number and no option to make a correction. I've unchecked it but why can't I add the new number? On my iphone the ONLY option that shows up is my current number but when I set up my new ipad I have the issue described here. I want this number completely removed from my account there has to be a way to get it out of the system.
Also when going to settings>facetime>you can be reached at: shows email addresses as well as the OLD phone number with no option to make the correction, remove the incorrect number, or add a new number. I figured this was tied in to my appleID since thats when it showed up (right when I signed in on my ipad). So I went to itunes on my mac and went to my account and there I find AppleID Summary, itunes in the cloud, purchase history, and settings. I've gone through each of those and am still unable to figure out where to change it. Somebody PLEASE tell me where to find this data so I can change it. I've seen multiple inquiries about this all over the internet but everyone's solution is to do exactly what I've already done. No resolution to the real issue.Apple will have it, but if there is ever a question/problem, the store that you made the exchange at will have it on record.
But if you're worried about it call 800-APL-CARE and see if they have it. -
My husband and I have iphones that use the ame apple ID, but different numbers and email addresses, how do we change the phone number that is associated with his ipod to his phone number?
Use his ID for Settings>Messages>Send And Recieve and for Settings>FaceTime.
If he does not have an ID then
Create a NEW account using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.

How do I change my phone number on my Apple ID account? Not the number for billing. I got a new Ipod touch and when I was setting it up my emails where correct but the phone number was wrong. The gentlemen at the Apple Store told me just to go on my account on my computer and change it but i cant find where. Only part i know how to change is the billing number. Thanks.
If you can remember them their current answers you can login here and change them : https://appleid.apple.com , click on 'Manage your Apple ID' and then 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of your account's page
If you can't remember their answers and you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then you can try going to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you might see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then see if the instructions on this user tip helps you get them reset : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551 -

How to prevent users from entering '+' or '0' in front of country code in the phone number field?
Requirement:
How can I prevent guest users from entering '+' sign or '0' in front of country-code in the visitor phone number field during self registration?
Few SMS service providers are not looking for '+' sign or '0' or '00' in front of the international phone numbers to trigger the sms. Providing these values in front of country code during self-registration may fail to deliver the sms to recipient.
Solution:
Using a simple regular expression, you can validate the entered phone number during the guest registration.
The below regular expression will help you to validate the phone number and allows to register only when the phone number is not staring with '+' or '0'.
^[1-9][0-9](\d{7}|\d{8}|\d{9}|\d{10}|\d{11}|\d{12})$
It also performs the below validations.
only numbers are allowed.
first digit of the entered phone number should be 1 to 9, so '+' or '0' is not allowed.
numbers from 0 to 9 are allowed from the second digit.
also validates phone number length, the length of the phone number should be 9 to 14.
Configuration:
To add the above regex in the visitor_phone number filed, please navigate to ClearPass Guest >> Configuration >> (Pages)Guest Self-Registration >> select the self-registration page and go to Edit >> Register Page >> Form >> select the filed visitor_phone and set the Validator to " ISRegexMatch" and enter the above regex in the Validator Argument filed as shown below.
Note: Edit the Validation Error as per your requirement.
Verification
Adding the given regex will validate the phone number and prevent the guest user from registering the phone number starts with '+' or '0'.
Please find below the sample outputs for your reference.
Result when phone number starts with '+' or '0'.
Successful registration.Is this a Mac Preview issue?

I've been receiving text messages on my phone, but for some reason the phone number is not showing up on my bill under the message log. Does anyone know why?
donnagman,
Thanks for the details. All numbers should show up in the message history log, unless you are communicating via iMessage. When texting the numbers that are missing in the message log are you using your normal messaging app on the device or a downloaded app? Have the numbers that are missing been shown in your message log before?

My messages won't say the contact name only shows the phone number, how do you change this when the contact is in my phone under that number already?
I thought that at first, but I have text this person before and had received responses in a timely manner. Its just weird that it all of a sudden removed their name.
Would this affect the delivery of the text message? -
I just can't type plus when typing the phone number. Does anyone has this kind of a problem?
I just can't type plus when typing the phone number. 0 appears before the plus and it cannot be deleted.
I know few people who faced this situation.
Strange bug! How could it be unnoticed?Hey Apple QA guys come on, fix that terribly annoying bug, please!
Env:
IOS 7+ (including freshiest 7.1 beta 3), all devices.
How to reproduce:
Open dialer app
Press and long hold "0" button
Expected:
On the finger down "0" digit appears in phone number line, after the long hold "0" dissapears and "+" appears in place.
Actual:
After the long hold "0" does not dissapears and "+" is added below. It makes international number dialing unavailable.
Workaround:
Quickly press backspace after the finger down to delete "0" before plus appears. -
