Caller ID with State?

ryanwood · #1 (**permalink**) 02-28-2008, 01:02 AM

with previous sprint phones the caller ID for numbers not in my contact list included the state where the call originated. Does anyone know if the Mogul has this capability, and if so how to activate it?

My Samsung used to do this. My Treo and Mogul don't but I would like to see it as well.

no, its based on firmware of a phone, htc and such don't support state id

I see this happen all the time when I am dialing numbers. It will pop below in the dialer and tell me the state. I do not see it with incoming calls however/

Not quite, Remy. The phone definitely uses state ID, since it reports the state when you dial a number. Try it -- type 615-555-1212 into your dialer, and it will correctly show "Tennessee".

So, there should be a provision for state ID of incoming calls....
