state caller id??

[sidwin]

I might be forgetting but I swear i thought my TP used to show me the state that was calling me in addition to the caller id. My provider is sprint and this is on the stock rom.

thanks,
sid

The TP will only show the state when you are dialing a number, not when you have an incoming call.

The only app that shows the state (and city) for incoming calls is one I wrote called LocateCaller

I've attached the CAB here. Change "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\
Security\Phone\Skin\Enabled" to 0, install the CAB, and soft-reset.

Feel free to show your appreciation by buying me a coffee

You might be mistaken never showed up on my TP and I'm running the stock rom with sprint too...there is a fix for it but you kinda have to jump thru hoops to do so and have to download another dialer not able to do it on the stock one hope this helps

I believe with our stock dialer, that it is unable to show which state you are calling by using the area code. All the reg edit does is turn off the HTC Dialer and reverts back to the stock WinMo one, I believe.
