Guest YoungHog Posted April 17, 2006 Report Share Posted April 17, 2006 My MDA is set to not show my CELL number on all calls.. Via the Network Settings.. However some numbers in my contact list will not accept blocked calls. Previously i.e. on ALL OTHER PHONES THAT I have every had I could simply do *82 here in dallas i.e. *82 xxx-xxx-xxxx and have no problems calling that party. But as of now.. I can not get it to work. This is not a PROVIDER THING as my previous phone did it on T-MOBILE the v600 and then the razor and a few others.. But the MDA will not take it.. And its the same contact listings.. ;) Any quick help would be appreciated. YOUNGHOG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pdtp Posted April 17, 2006 Report Share Posted April 17, 2006 have you tried puting a 1 infront of the number you are tring to dial? i just did it on my 8125 (i dont have caller id blocking) and it worked just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Laser_iCE Posted April 18, 2006 Report Share Posted April 18, 2006 (edited) Start \ Settings \ Phone \ Network [Tab] \ Servers [Tab] \ > Caller ID Edit: Sorry, I just re-read it... On WM2003, you could set it to show your ID for contacts only, but not in WM5, or can you do that somehow in this OS?

YES.. that didn't help.. same thing.. 'party you are trying to reach does not accept calls from annoumous numbers' Start \ Settings \ Phone \ Network [Tab] \ Servers [Tab] \ > Caller ID Edit: Sorry, I just re-read it... On WM2003, you could set it to show your ID for contacts only, but not in WM5, or can you do that somehow in this OS? This is where it is configured.. And I have it set as 'show caller id' TO KNOW ONE.. Which is how I want it. However when calling a hand full of numbers I need to show my id.. There has to be a work around.. ;) Any other ideas.

Guest Laser_iCE Posted April 21, 2006 Report Share Posted April 21, 2006 Shouldn't this be an operator thing? Have you tried calling your Network and asking them? ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest YoungHog Posted April 21, 2006 Report Share Posted April 21, 2006 Shouldn't this be an operator thing?
