Can you also check to make sure that your phone has the registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\PHONE\AreaCode

Not sure if that's a Sprint-only thing, or what. As more people test, I can update the post with full requirements.... anybody's input is welcome.

I'm running JD gps2.1 rom. It's a wm6.1 rom. It doesnt have that reg key. I'm using this rom because it's the only wm6.1 rom I've tried that SRS WoW HD will work. Thanks

The only other one I remember was one where it required you to disable the HTC dialer. It would be helpful if you post links instead of just mentioning that there are others already out there.

Hey.. sorry to hear that this isn't working for you... I've attached the missing reg key here (it's just an area code -> state cross reference)... you should be able to import this into your reg and then the app should work.

I'll also add this to first post in case other people need it ... Let me know if that fixes it for ya.

People in your contact list will not cause this app to pop up (it's assumed that, since you have them in your contact list, you don't need to know what state their number is from). Would also be pretty annoying to have this pop up every time you make a call (in my opinion).

To clarify, people in your contact list will have their info show up on your caller ID as usual, this app will NOT create a pop-up.

Agreed... that was the only other solution I'd seen and, even with that, I think there were some people reporting that it still didn't work.... thus I tweaked the CallerUtility by Sveinung Bakken to use the reg key (since Sprint won't allow us a simultaneous data and voice conneciton).

That said, I believe Sveinung Bakken's app DOES work if you ignore the call or let it ring through... that is, it'll do the data lookup after the call finishes, I think. It's pretty cool, but I wanted something that would let me have an idea of who's calling before I decided to answer or not.

What's the best way to import the registry keys?

You should be able to use PHM registry editor or Resco Registry to Import a key.

Alright, I'll download Resco in a bit. The "Import" menu is grayed out in PHM so no go with that.

Working great on my Mogul. Nice little program.

quick question:

Will this area code database work for canada as well? This would be a nice feature for my diamond.

Also, if I have a dialer skin installed, will they interfer with each other?

Thanks
