I had this problem ages ago with my c500 and fixed it but cannot fix it with my diamond.

When a person calls - their name (and pic) appears as the person calling. Yet for 1 number only (it happens to be my gf) it comes up as the number only - and once the call is over it says 'number is not in contacts - would you like to add it'

I thought the fix would be to have both style of numbers (with +44 and without) in the various contact fields but to no joy.

It's annoying in the fact that it works for every other contact just not her! (maybe it's a sign!)

Any clues?

Long shot

Try this.. (assuming that you sync your phone with outlook)

Delete the contact from the diamond.

Edit the contact in Outlook with the contact numbers and assign a pic in Outlook itself.

Sync

See if this works.

I've tried it - still no joy. I've checked to see if any other number exists in the phone/outlook that is too similar but I can't see one. I'd read somewhere that it uses the first 7 digits for caller id - and that number is relatively unique.

hmmm

While we are trying stuff out

Delete the contact from the diamond, anyway. In the call list / history.. you should have the a received call from your gf's number.

Save it from there. Then assign a pic.

Let's see if that works.
