This could arise as a result of two things.
First thing, if the default contacts are the sim contacts and then there are no contacts stored to the phone memory. You have to set it up to show the sim contacts as the default or phone contact(depending on which memory is having the contacts). Better still, you can copy the contacts from your sim to phone memory.
secondly, since you are sure that it is stored to the phone, and it still doesn't show, it is as a result of storing the contact with two different names. Possibly when you changed the sim into the new phone, it made some changes to the contacts and saved them from your sim to your phone memory. As a result, there are 2 names for one number and the phone cannot pick which to show. The number has to be stored with a particular name both on phone and sim memory.
if you need more information, contact me.

My nokla c5-03 couldn't show the caller's name though it's saved in my phone it's only show caller's no.

There are two reason for this: 1. The SIM card has problem. Try to use another SIM card
2. You have saved same no. in two different caller names. So phone doesnt show any of them.

My nokia e 71 does not shows the caller name wat can i do to rectify it ... its really troble some i cant even see who gave missed call to me also..plz help me frnzzz .. i tried both the way above staed...

If you store a a number with more than one name, the next time the number calls u, it will not show any name.
You have to delete the other entries and leave only ONE entry. Then you can see the caller names and missed calls.

When someone calls my nokia 5230 nuron the name doesnt show up just the number

Hi,

there may be 2 reasons for it

1.I hope you stored the caller name and number in your mobile.

If you haven't stored it please store the name and number in your phone and it will show the caller name when he/She calls you.

2.Even though you stored the caller name and number and still you get only the number,Then please check weather the same number is stored twice in different names.If this is the case also the mobile shows only the number when the caller is calling you.

Thank You

Callers' name doesn't show even though i have them in my contacts

Hi,

Solution 1

Some caller's names does not appear even though they are on your contact list because you have then copied twice on your phone. What you'll need do it to delete one contact each for the caller id's that don't show when they call in. Once you get this done, your phone phone would begin to show contacts on your phone.

If you want to know if this true, then get someone around you and save his/her name twice then ask him/her to call you. You'll notice that the caller id would not appear, but once you get one of the contacts deleted and ask him/her to call you back, you'll discover that the caller's id would begin to show.

Solution 2

For your access point, just define it the next time you switch on your phone and save it. Then it would not have to change the next time you turn your phone on/off.

Solution 3


To get rid of the welcome go to Menu > Tools > Settings > General > Personalization >

You can set it from here.

Hope this helped.
