Wrong name on received SMS


Recommended Posts

Have you ever changed the name of a contact? In inbox, any sms received from this contact, show old contact name. Anyone knows how to change it?

Are you sure you don't have the contact twice? Once with the old name and once with the new? If you do then just delete the old name contact.

It remains the same name even changing the sim

Changing the SIM would have no effect if you have the contact stored twice in the phone memory.

I'm sure that I haven't no duplicated contacts

You've had a look in contacts for the old name? If it's not there then I don't know where the SMS messages could be getting it from.

On my first ericsson there was the identical bug: together with text is saved the contact name too, for saving cpu time when accessing in the folder.

Maybe I can hex edit the sms database...
