Default identifying received sms

Hi guys, I am very proud of my new xda, however I could not identify who sent me the sms messages since it does not show the senders names unlike other mobile phones, we cant search by phone numbers too I live in the Philippines where sms is part of our lives! Please help me Thanks in advance

Download the cab-file from the following link, copy it onto your XDA and execute (doubble-click) it. That's all

there is a free utility from paragon software to show names on sms, however it works only for the list view && received sms

take a look at penreader.com, it's lying there somewhere :)

I don't know. You could compare the two by looking into the cab files using WinZip. I wouldn't worry too much about it, there are more way's of doing the same thing. :wink:

That's funny, I was wondering why I was getting more traffic on that site lately...

The copy I have may not be the most current, though it does seem to work fine. It was not an official release. I can't recall the URL for the official release, but I know you can find it in Google.
