E71 - Contacts detail on call or sms arrival

Hi, some of the contacts on my phone don't show a name when the contact calls even though the contact is stored on the phone. Is this a bug on the phone or is this a known issue?
Thanks in advance!!

If it is only some and not all, then it is not an issue with the phone but with your contacts. The most likely cause is duplicated numbers (you might have the same contact on both SIM and phone memory, or you might have the same number listed for more than one contact, for example).

  • Invalid contact details while replying to SMS rece...

    Hi I'm using Nokia N8 and I have updated it with symbian belle. I have problem while sending reply message to the messages I received. When I try to send reply to same message it says invalid contact details. The contact has been added in the following fashion 'namename' and because of that I have to include contact separately to send messages. Because of this I could not able to recogonise the continuity of messages(chats happend). I already trid delete and restore option but still the problem occurs. 
    If someone knows the solution for it please kindly help me out of it.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Arun

  • My call logs and SMS messages display the incorrect contact details on the BlackBerry q10

    Hello there!
    I met serious problem like in the subject. Is anybody know what is going on ?
    Best regards,

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    Here is a KB that discusses that error:
    KB34772 Call logs and SMS messages display the incorrect contact details on the BlackBerry 10 smartphone
    Unfortunately, it contains nothing useful -- except for formal recognition by BlackBerry of the issue. We would then hope that a future OS release will correct it.
    Good luck and let us know!

  • Sending contact details through sms

    You can easily do this by downloading an app called Contact Share if it isn't already installed on your phone.

  • Is it possibloe to get a detailed break down of my calls and sms that would include phone numbers?

    I am on a family plan and was wondering is it possible to get a detailed break down of my calls and sms that would include phone numbers for my line only?

    If you are the account owner, you can log into your My Verizon ccount online and view the usage details for all the lines on the account.  If you are only an account member, you should be able to view some details for your line, but I am not sure exactly how much.

  • How can I automate the multi-step process of looking up a caller's contact details when a telephone call comes in with caller ID?

    How can I automate the multi-step process of looking up a caller's contact details when a telephone call comes in with caller ID. I want to be able to see more than just the first & last name when a client calls me. I would like the caller ID to pull up the same information that shows up when you search for and find a contact name and then click on the right arrow.
    My workaround is to force/enter both the last name and the address in the last name field since then the address will show up.
    The only computerized way to look up this additional information is to put the client on hold, memorize the first and last name and correctly enter it in the search field of the contact database and hopefully find it before the client gets tired of waiting.
    Note that I go to about 48 small jobs per week. So far I have about 9,000 contacts. It's easy to make a mistake and have the client wondering what I'm doing and what's taking so long.
    The second workaround is to use paper and pencil and ask the client for name, address, cross street and phone number again, repeating what I did some time previously.
    Please help meautomate this process.

    You don't have to put anyone on hold. When the call comes in, tap the Home button, then tap contacts, go to the contact. Tap Home button when finished, tap the top banner to return to the call screen.

  • SMS with someone's contact details (vcard?) unreadable

    I am on GSM 1.4.5. When I ask somebody to SMS me contact details of somebody else, I usually get an illegible SMS with e.g. QkVHSU46VkNBUkQNClZFUlNJT046Mi4xDQpOOm1vYjtQYXBzDQ​pURUw7UFJFRjtWT0lDRTorMzcy NTU1MTQwNjg[ending snipped]

  • How do i get carrier to unlock phone given to me off third party that has emmigrated. carrier wants call off them but have no contact details. would apple do this for me?

    how do i get a carier to unlock my i phone 4s. it was given to me from a friend of a friend (yes it was legitamate).They were emmigrating due to partner getting job abroad. it has been registerd with apple in my name and details. the carrier wants the original purchaser to contact them but i have no contact details for them. would apple unlock this for me or request carrier (3 network) to unlock it?

    unfortunately they still insist on previous owner contacting them even though i have explained the situation? have just come back from usa and apple store over there said to get in contact with apple customer services in uk and they could request on my behalf to carrrier for unlock code. Do you know if anyone has tried this with any outcomes?

  • Invalid contact details when SMS-ing

    Hi
    I have a Nokia N8. When I send a text message it comes to some problems. When I enter the desired contact from the phonebook and click send it says to me "Inavlid contact details: (and a contact name).
    But when I directly enter the number no problems appears. 
    Then, the message does not come in the form of chat when I have corresponded with one contact. I have to get out the message that I got that to be able to responded to that message. So sent and received mess. are not in the same chat. ( except those when I directly put the number in).
    I hope there is a solution to this problem and sorry for a long post.
    Thanks

  • Ovi suite doesn't show contact details set to stan...

    Hi,
    I am using right now the latest for me available version of Ovi Suite 2.2.0.245 but the problem started to appear 2 or 3 updates before already.
    I am using Ovi suite on a Vista 32bit german machine.
    My mobile is a E71 v400.21.013 connected normally via Bluetooth (but cable shows same problem)
    I started to define some contact details (e.g. mobile (home) as default for phoning and sms) and now ovi suite syncs and shows everything but theses defaults. On the mobile the details are still there (luckily).
    The messages part of the ovi suite shows for those entries just the numbers and not the contact names anymore.
    Can someone tell me how to fix it or at least how to undefine these standards?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi issue fixed by pressing "Refresh " in the choose receipt screen .

  • IPhone 4 - iOS 5 upgrade - LOST ALL CONTACT DETAILS

    I upgraded to  iOS 5 and now I can't get to any of my contact details.
    What I have -
    The list of my contacts is displayed under the contacts option, but when I touch any contact name it takes me back to the home screen. Can't make any phone calls. But I can receive phone calls and the caller-id displays the correct name too. So my guess is the information is there somewhere, I just can't seem to find it or use it.
    What I have tried so far -
    1) Resynced contacts from the Info tab in iTunes. I get the following error msg - "iTunes couldnot sync contacts to the "iPhone" because contacts are being synced over-the-air
    2) turned off sync over wi-fi from iTUnes. Tried syncing again. Same error message as above.
    3) Tried going to "Mail, Contacts, Calendars" under settings, it takes me back to home screen. It displays the "Mail, Contacts, Calendars" details screen for about half a second and takes me back to home screen.
    4) Went to iCloud under settings and tried to turn off teh "Contacts" from there. It simplays doesn't turn off. I can turn off everything else listed under there, but contacts. No matter what I do, it stays on.
    5) Signed into iCloud.com with my account. The contacts info there has only one contact listed (mine).
    6) Tried to edit contact details from one of my recent text messages. Doesn't work. Takes me backto home screen.
    Does anyone have any ideas about how to fix this. At this point I can't even use the main function a phone should be performing, i.e. make calls from my stored contacts.

    I had the same problem. Time Machine proved invaluable here. I opened up Address Book, selected "All Contacts", started up TIme Machine via Spotlight, and scrolled back to the day before I ran the 4.2.1 updater. Bada bing, all contacts restored to the address book! Simply did an iPhone sync after that and all was well again.
    Still, nasty bug Apple. :-|

  • I recieved a scam email from apple. then sent me the same email using my own email account. how do I report this to apple. can't find any contact details.

    hi over the past month have received maybe 5 scam emails from apple.
    I opened one the other day cause I thought well maybe it is from apple.
    went through the steps and it was  amazed at how well they did at copying apple website. you could even go to the apple shop page from their page!
    what set me off that it was fake was that I tried to open the other apple pages along the top and it wouldn't let me. so I opened my own apple page and logged in. and realised that they don't ask for your bank details in your Apple ID account.
    anyways so now what has happened is I got an email today " from myself" with this same scam email. it is as if they have hacked my email account and sending me these emails. I want to report this to apple but am unable to find any contact details apart from call back options. does any one have any advice on this.

    I've had that same exact issue, I received the first e-mail claiming to be from Apple last night (though over the past week I've received two other scam e-mails from different addresses claiming that my bank transactions have been aborted). It said it was from my own address, and I checked it closely to make sure it wasn't a spoof account but found it was indeed my own e-mail address. Five minutes ago I changed my password, and I have just now received a second e-mail exactly the same, still coming from my own account. My best guess at an explanation is that it may have been sent before I changed my password and there was just a delay in the message sending, resulting in it coming through after changing my password.
    I've now forwarded the e-mail on as an attachment to the [email protected] address, however this still doesn't help me with regards to stopping these e-mails. It concerns me that even though I changed my password they still possibly have access to my account. I tried checking my account activity but as opening the mail app on my iPhone is considered as a log in and I check it almost twice an hour, it's impossible to tell which could possible be an intruder logging in.

  • Mail keeps opening in the background when accessing contact details

    I'm using iPhone 3G
    I have an App called FreeMemory (from the AppStore) than can view all running apps in the background.
    What I'll do is check FreeMemory and I can see that Mail is NOT running.
    Then I go ahead and open Contacts and tap on a particular contact name (I noticed that it takes a while to open the details of a particular contact).
    After that I close Contacts and go back to FreeMemory. Now I see Mail running in the background.
    (but when I only open Contacts and scroll through the list and I dont tap a contact name, it WONT open the Mail app).
    I can conclude that accessing a contact detail also opens Mail app which eats RAM since im using only iPhone 3G which has small RAM.
    *PLEASE note that all my mail accounts are already INACTIVE/DISABLED and my Fetch options are OFF and set to Manual. Also, I DONT have any email adress info of my contacts stored in their names.
    Any idea how I can prevent Mail from opening when I access contact details??
    thanks!

  • Can't make calls or sms on iphone 3gs after iOs5 upgrade?

    I upgraded to iOS5 on my iphone 3gs and I am having major problems connecting to the 3g network. I can't make or recieve calls or sms, or log on to the internet over the 3g network. wifi works fine, but that doesn't help with the calls or the sms, and i can't always be on wifi for my emails. the phone worked fine before the upgrade.
    i've restored the entire phone as a new phone, i've gone in to the apple store and had my phone looked at, they say there's nothing wrong with the hardware.
    i live in Canada and my carrier is Rogers - of course when I call them for help they say it must be the phone not their network. they'd rather i buy a new phone and sign another 3 year contract
    the only thing that seems to help is restoring network settings. immediately after doing that I can make calls, send and receive sms, and use the internet over 3g. but it only fixes it temporarily... after about 15 mins I'm back to the same problem. can't make or receive call etc.
    anyone else having this same problem?
    anyone know of a solution?

    After 2 hours with Apple Support, which was great, we figured out the issue. 1-800-my-iphone. When I upgraded to iOS5 and started using the iCloud, I was unaware that my previous synching settings were still set to Yahoo.com where I had been sycning wirelessly in the past. So the Apple support tech showed me that I had multiple accounts in both Notes and Contacts. I had iPhone, iCloud, yahoo, Outlook accounts and my default settings on the iphone should have all been set to icloud. Syching was occuring, but not in icloud. It took a little manual conversion of some Notes and Contacts into the icloud folders in Outlook, but now everything works and I only display and use the iCloud accounts in Notes and Contacts. Apple realizes that this is an issue for those of us that were previously using Yahoo and equivalents for wireless synching and they provded my support free. Usually they charge $27. All is well.
