Incoming calls doesn't show on ios 5.0.1 on iPhone 4s

I bought iPhone 4s yesterday at T-Mobile Montengro, and I'm having problem with incoming and outgoing calls. All calls are show as number (not names from contacts) in Recants lists, and all incoming calls are the same. I have all my contacts stored in format +382 67 XXXXXX so they should work. My wife's iPhone 4 with ios 5.0 and same carrier work just fine.

I just ran into the same problem with an iPhone 4S: contact names and photos stopped showing up on incoming calls or in the recent/missed calls list. I took my phone to the Genius Bar and they ran a diagnostic to confirm there was nothing wrong with the phone hardware. Their suggestion, which worked:
Update iTunes to the latest version.
Sync your phone with your computer via iTunes. Make sure that the sync options are selected under each tab (Sync Contacts, Sync Apps, Sync Music, Sync Videos, etc..) so everything is backed up onto the computer.
In iTunes, select the Summary tab for the phone and click on Restore to wipe out the software and restore it.
When the system asks, restore as a new phone (instead of restoring from backup)
Once it's done, walk through the initial phone setup and re-sync your phone to get all of your contacts, apps, music, etc.
The explanation I got was that something in the software got corrupted and if I restored from a backup, the corruption would still be there, so I needed to restore it as a new phone and re-sync my data on to it. Bottom line is it worked, and I hope this saves some time and a trip to the Apple Store for you or anyone else that might run into this issue.
Good luck getting it resolved!

  • Why are my Text Contacts and incoming calls only are showing as "Message Received"

    All of my text contacts messages just say "Message Received", but if I have set a ringtone for them, that is the ringtone that plays. The same is true of incoming calls, It will show the phone number, but not the assigned name. I don't know everyone's phone number! I barely remember mine!
    HELP?? Please ?!
    How do I get my caller ID to work properly again?
    I have a Galaxy S3
    Thanks

        Hey there, celtmaidn! Thank you for bringing this matter to the community. I'm sorry that your Caller ID isn't providing you with the details you need, but I'm happy to help. If I understand correctly, incoming calls and messages do not display the name of any of your calls or messages, just the number. Does the same occur on your outbound calls and/or messages? Also, you may have a contact (example: Dave) that you have programmed in your S III with a mobile number, but "Dave" may have a home number as well. Have you confirmed that the number used for that call or message is the same one you have programmed into your device?

    My incoming calls aren't showing up on my screen and I can't hear any of my alerts, notifications, etc. What's up???

    This is probably some corruption in the settings file that stores the on-screen position of the Firefox window. Could you try the steps in this thread: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/980358 opens off monitor screen]. Any luck?

  • N95 - 8GB , During incoming call it will show the ...

    When incoming call it will show the contact name and also the contact number which is harm to the privacy of the contact numbers also...
    So please some one tell me how to avoid this problem , otherwise everybody around me will come to know all my contact numbers without go to the phone book during a call......

    I dont really see how everybody around you could see the numbers. This was done to show you who was calling and from what phone number you have saved. This is the built in caller ID, and no amount of resetting will fix this to my knowledge.
    For the people around you to see, Its pretty gross and unusual for people to look at your phone and try to memorize the small font numbers. You arent giving them enough time. 2 secs flat when you look at the phone, slide it open and put on your ear isnt enough for people to view and memorize 8-12 digit numbers.

  • I can send calls from Mac but incoming calls do not show up on Mac.

    Just downloaded Yosemite 10.10 on 10-21-14. I can make calls on my mac but unable to receive calls on my Mac. No notifications for incoming calls on my mac. Everything else runs fine. Messaging and calls from my mac works fine. I am running IOS 8.1 on a iPhone 4s. I have a 2009 Macbook Pro 2.54 duo with 8 gb of ram.

    There is no Adobe printer in recent versions of Mac OS. Look instead for a Save As Adobe PDF pull down.

  • Flagged Messages Mailbox Doesn't Show in iOS 6

    A touted new feature in Mail.app for iOS 6 is the Flagged Messages mailbox, but it doesn't show for me although I'm using only a standard iCloud account. That is, the only e-mail account on my device is iCloud. The also-new VIP mailbox shows... Just not the Flagged Messages mailbox. I can't find a setting on the iOS devices, my Mac (running Mountain Lion) or on the iCloud website to enable the Flagged Messages mailbox.
    What have I done wrong?

    After talking to level two support to no avail....seems I have found a glich? Or maybe it's just the way it works.
    1st you MUST have an email flagged.....second the flagged message must be in the general mailbox it arrived in, NOT moved to another folder within that mailbox.  Works for me...Discovered this while on indefinite hold, lol.....

  • Incoming calls doesn't play customed ringtone

    i managed to make customed ringtone with iTune and sync the customed ringtone to iPhone. I assumed it went fine as the ringtone showed (and I could play the ringtone) in the settings-->general-->sons ringtone list. I checked that it has already been set as default rigntone. But, when an incoming call is on, it is not the selected custom ringtone, but one in the standard ringtone list.
    what has gone wrong?
    thanks.

    My understanding of this issue is that it has more to do with the caller ID signal from the local tower when the call is received than a problem with the phone. I've noticed that I get custom ringtones most of the time but not ALL the time.

  • Incoming calls do not show contact names

    We have a problem here and it is the only reason I had to go back to my 9900.
    All my over 3000 contact are put into my phone with the relevant country codes.  Now the names do not show up on incoming calls.  I have played around with Smart dialling settings nad tried other things and... 'no joy'.  The only thing that works is to remove the country codes to all local numbers.
    HELP!!!...so I can go back to the Q10!!

    I have this same problem and dialing *228 didn't not fix my phone either. 

  • Iphone 4s, Does not ring and vibrate when there is an incoming call. It shows as missed.

    Just bought a new iPhone 4 s and realised that sometime I could see missed calls without hearing the phone ringing. Tried several times with an other phone to place a call and could see that when phone goes in standby (screen black) and there is an incoming call the phone does not ring or vibrate. It does start to ring only if I press the round button. Has anybody experienced the problem? Can you help me? Thanks

    [email protected],
    Sorry to hear the phone is not always ringing like it should. We don't want you to miss any calls. Let's get that ringing for you again. Try resetting the network settings: http://vz.to/17Us9Pn . Retest and let us know how it's working.

  • I create a new calendar on My mac and share with my wife's mac.  She accepts the sharing but the calendar doesn't show up on her Calendar or her iPhone.

    How can I add a new calendar to my Mac and share it with my wife's Mac.  I execute the normal process and she receives the email and accepts sharing but the new calendar doesn't show up on her mac or iPhone.

    Hi,
    I would point out that I did say...
    Of course the Contacts List has to have people listed in it.
    The Error seems to be that you have not even got an My Card.
    The OS when the computer is brand new and you set up the first Admin Account should create at least once Card entry for the Address Book/Contacts which has the Head and Shoulders icon (the My Card)
    The does presume the the first account on the Mac doers have a person's First name and Last name to work with.
    Of course not everyone sets things up this way.
    Anyhow
    To Check the Contacts List open the app.
    Go to the Preferences.
    Go to the Accounts section.
    This should list at least two "accounts
    One is for Syncing with iCloud and the other is for storing the Info on the Mac itself
    In System Preferences > iCloud you can only set up one Apple ID to be the iCloud ID.
    If you do or have changed this you may have extra accounts in the Contacts > Preferences > Accounts

  • Yosemite iMac can start calls using iPhone, but the call doesn't move to the mac and stays on iPhone

    Hey,
    I've got a mid 2011 iMac, and I used it as part of the Yosemite beta program. During this, I was able to make and receive calls as part of the continuity feature perfectly.
    After initially swapping to the release version, the iMac wouldn't make/take calls from the phone at all. I rectified that by signing out and back in to iCloud through facetime on both the iMac and iPhone 6 on iOS 8.1.
    Now, the option to make/take a calls shows up on the iMac through facetime/contacts and the waveform appears from the notification centre, however all the audio comes from the iPhone as if it's been answered from the iPhone, there is no sound at all from the iMac.
    Does any one have any solutions to this problem?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Itunes doesn't show playlists I've created on my iphone. It shows some older ones, just not the ones created on my iphone.

    When I bring up my phone's playlists in itunes, only my older playlists are showing up.  None of the new playlists that I created on the actual phone are there. I think it started doing this after the last big itunes update - the one that pretty much was an overhaul...I forget which one.
    Anyways - is this a sync issue? Bc I manage my tunes manually.
    Any help or clarification would be appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Hi there Supershake!
    I believe that any playlist created on your iPhone would be considered an "On-The-Go" playlist, to use old terminology. We have an article that deals with this issue, and in that article, you can find this information:
    You choose to manually sync your iPod
    iTunes does not save On-The-Go playlists from your iPod as new iTunes playlists. You can't see the On-The-Go playlists on your iPod in the source list and iTunes doesn't sync them for you. If you want, you can create a new playlist with the same songs in iTunes, then sync it to your iPod.
    And that information is taken from this article:
