Bit of a noob question but please help!!

[Libertad]

I was wondering if anyone could help me with what seems like quite a stupid question. When I receive txts it displays only the number of the contact but not the actual contact's name. It displays either only the subject or the number in the inbox as well. Is there any way to set it so that it displays contact name in the inbox? Otherwise I have no idea who sent the txt!

Thanks!

Its means you don't have that number in the phone contacts..save that number in the phone contacts and then check the inbox it will show you the contacts name.

By phone contacts you mean phone book right? I had all my previous contacts saved to the sim card so I just set the phonebook to read off the sim card. Do I have to resave all contacts to the phone?

Look in the z3 bible/ successful mods and seem edits.

I've had a look in the z3 bible and I can't seem to find anything! Could you link me or something?

thank you!

inbox reads the contacts from both sim and phone also, no need to transfer or copy the contacts to the phone from SIM.
even i didnt find it in z3 bible.
