Nokia 6100 and Name display

bigfeller

I have a Nokia 6100 that refuses to display the name for one person when I get a text from her. It just displays the beginning of the message. All other names are shown properly. Her name is saved correctly and the number is in the +35387 format which works correctly with other names. Any ideas on how I can fix it????

Are you sure you haven't got the number saved twice? As in, the same number is saved under a different name?

Is the number entered twice?? When a number is entered twice in two seperate phone book entries this is what will happen

bigfeller

Nope, number is in only once. I have tried deleting her name and readding but no joy.

number must be there twice somewhere, either in the sim and phone, or else saved twice with different prefix
.....as example: 087-1234567 and 086-1234567

D'oh, showing my stupidity there, number was saved with the number as the name. Sorted. Cheers all!

Ha ha ha
Fair play to you
There's not too many would even come back and own up to it

bigfeller

Yeah, I love announcing my stupidness all over the internet.

Now, where did I leave those scissors. I feel like a jog....
