my iphone 's fw is now 1.1.2, so u have fix caller ID for 1.1.2 fw???????

[truenorth]

It's the same fix that I posted, except that you will code the different number formats inside your country's key. Take the time to read the link I provided. There are enough instructions there for you to go by. Unfortunately, the formats that I have work only here in Australia. Your phone numbers in your country will be different, so you have to do your number formatting yourself.

I've done this fix for at least three 1.1.2 units and it works like a charm.

when i installed the iworld, it works only when i got an incoming call and i store the number without country code in contact book, but when i received sms, it stated only the number (with country code), never appear the name stored in contact book. so can any one help me to solve this problem for 1.1.2 iphone

[inchbyinch]

To those it may concern, thank you.
singularly the most annoying thing about the iphone

Used 9 for Irish numbers for those who need it

[maxkoz]

What does it mean when you use + before the number?
thanks

Ok, I have changed the strings, i can now see the numbers in the format that I wish to. However no Caller ID recognition of my contacts. Any ideas on how to fix it?

I receive calls starting with 55 (which I dont use when I dial).

thanks

[truenorth]

Try entering your contacts' numbers the same way they're recognized. For example, if you had stored a contact as 1234567 (no area code), but their incoming call shows as (416) 123 4567, change the stored number as 4161234567.

+ is used by mobile networks to designate country codes.

guys hope you can help me, and does the guide in this thread help me with my problem???
Heres my problem:

when i save a name in contacts:
name: Brutus
number: 0922xxxxxxx
when an incoming call i can see "brutus" but if SMS i can only see "+63922xxxxxxx" (+63-area code)
my temporarily solution, is to put the 2 numbers on the same contact:
name : brutus
number : 0922xxxxxxx
new number: +63922xxxxxxx

is there another easy way to solve this problem??
i got a fw1.1.2 and m from Phillipines using windows xp
and if there is a way hope you guys can gude me step by step coz m just a noob on pc
Many many thanks

[truenorth]

Pedro, I'll do some research and let you know if I come up with a solution. I pm'd you, too.

hey whenever i change my ABFORMAT on my iphone, and reset it, it causes the phone to never boot completly.

it just hangs at the apple logo.

I don't know why.

I havn't installed iWorld yet. Does that fix the problem? THanks.

I used this and this fixed any caller id issues. Read this :

http://iphone.fiveforty.net/wiki/index.php/AppSupport

This gives you all the details you need and you can solve your problem by using "ptnedit" to patch your 1.1.2 appsupport. Works perfectly. Pedro - Should solve all your problems. I live in india and i had the same problem as yours, this fixed it.

There is a link on that site which is :
http://www.hackint0sh.org/forum/show...t=7736&page=23 .That details your solution.

I'm on 1.1.1 in the UK. I've read through threads with some people using the 8 and 10 patched files for the UK. Which is the correct one to use?

uk number formats are

+441819 123 456 (international)
01819 123 456 (national)
07878 123 456 (mobiles)

Thanks

hi pedro

the + replaces the 0011 when you do international dial
so what oyu might want to do is follow truenorth's instruction, go and amend UIphoneformat file

and whatever country you might be, forexmple
im in australia so i have added all the strings

that is
<string>#### ####</string>
<string>+61 # #### ####</string>
<string>(61) (0#) #### ####</string>
<string>0011 $</string>
<string>+61 ### ### ###</string>
<string>04## #### ####</string>
<string>(02) #### ####</string>
<string>(03) #### ####</string>
<string>(07) #### ####</string>
<string>(08) #### ####</string>
<string>9### ####</string>
<string>8### ####</string>

so i have covered both numbers coming from local (within australia) and that will also work when i roam internationally

so what oyu might want to do is to add these strings
<string>0922xxxxxxx</string>
<string>+63922xxxxxxx</string>

you can do the same to your address book(if you use a mac) and add those values so your address book recognise them for easy sync.

I hope that make sense. If not PM me and try to help as much

PS: that should work for every other country, regardless where you're from, just add as many string to cover as many number format, area code etcc as you can until Apple fix it

Don't know if anyone has used this yet but I found an excellent patch in Installer from Unlock.ne(Source) called 'Phone # to name fix'-it's a beta version but it works perfectly here in Ireland - I used the 7 digit version - it does the rest for you - just how I like it!
