How to display contact name when received call

« on: April 26, 2009, 01:45:32 AM »

Hi!

I just got my samsung eternity and I really like it. When I received a call, it just display number of incoming call. It is not display name of that phone number even though I already saved that contact number in the phone. Any ideas?

Try going to:

Menu -> Settings -> Application Settings -> Address Book -> View Contacts from -> and click on 'Phone' or wherever you save your contacts to, this will make it so the address book will show you contacts that are from that location.

I know mine won't display if the number isn't matched exactly. This can mean the area code and sometimes even a one '1' at the beginning.

Yeah theres occasions where you have to do that like:

1-555-339-3499

555-339-3499

339-3499

Just try adding those and see which one works out for you, majority of my numbers has a 1 in front.
