Alltel Caller-ID (where it shows you where the call is from)
 

When I moved to custom roms from the stock alltel rom I noticed that there is no more external caller id, a feature i really liked. Is it a reg tweak that isn't applied in cooked roms? my guess if anyone is still on stock alltel is look under HKLM/software/HTC/PHONE for a setting for external caller-id.

what are u talkin about? external caller id is when u have a flip phone with a display on top of the clamshell..

am i missing something?

Re: External Caller-ID
 

Are u trying to hook you landline phone into your phone, or a remote plug in caller id? Am I having a bad dream?

sorry what i ment was where the network resolves the phone number like if my parents call me it says "joice, iowa"

I had to thank you just for making me laugh.

ok it was already on and I don't see a setting that would get the origin of the number

Re: External Caller-ID
 

I have never heard of it giving you the origin of the call, just whatever you have in your contacts. There was a thread somewhere for when you called a number, the dialer would display the location of the call.

I think he's talking about name display guys, for rogers gsm phones, a rilphone.dll from a rogers rom was required to make it display full caller id tags, probably the same sort of situation on your phone

ill flash back to alltel's stock rom tonight and take a picture

Edit: the reason i called it external is because the network, i think, supplies the information comparted to internal from your contacts ;)
