About SIM contact

kuching.guy — Mon, 10 Sep 2007 17:53:47 +0800

Anybody knows how to force WM5 NOT TO USE SIM Contacts for display in the Incoming call screen?

For example, I have a SIM Contact called 'zz Kenny' in SIM contact, and have a Contact names 'Kenny Rogers', both having the same phone number. I want to keep 'Kenny' in both SIM card and also in Phone. The entry in the phone is having full name and a caller id photo.

So, when Kenny call me, the Phone display 'zz Kenny' instead of the full name in the Contact list. The photo also did not been displayed. How to force WM5 display the name in 'Contacts' instead of SIM card?

I have try to change the registry to hide the SIM contacts (and it works, all SIM contacts are hidden). But when kenny call, WM5 still display 'zz Kenny'.

Any idea?

Dopod M700

I hope some dopod M700 users can share some of ur using experience with me... as i am new to the world of PDA phone... still got many questions..

A. Battery
A1. How long your battery can last usually? mine at most only can last for 2 days... (the device is installed with SPB Mobile Suite, SPB Pocket Plus and CEStar)

A2. If always charge the phone using USB, ok or not? will it affect the battery overall life span?

B. Memory
B1. Normally how much storage memory and program memory are FREE? mine is always very low... storage memory around 6MB free, and program memory about 15MB free...

C. Phone
B1. The phone function seems a bit slow and lagging. Eg. Accidentally dial to wrong person, so quickly press the End Call hard button, or quickly press the 'End' soft button. But it seems take quiet a long time (probably 5~6 seconds) for the word "Dialing..." to become "Call Ended"... it is like tat de hiah?

B2. Sometime hoh, all the M700 hard-buttons will become NOT responding after I make a phone call. I still can talk, but the screen just turn off, and I have found no way to turn it on.. so, after the call, I need to soft-reset. Why ah?

Thanks for any answer... =)
