Just spoke to Rogers technical support level 2 and they can't confirm if Rogers HTC X works with Name Display or not!

Can anyone with Rogers HTC One X confirm "Name display" is working or not?

Thanks

PS: Name Caller ID is exclusive to Rogers/Fido. Incoming calls show NAME even if you don't have that contact saved in your contact list.

Can you please also confirm if the name sticks in call log? Since some phones only number will show if/when you go back to call log

I just tested it out. Name display works. The name will show up when they're calling you. The name will also be shown on the notification bar. Eg. "Smith, John called". The only negitive is that the name doesn't stick to the call log. So if you accidently remove the name from the notification bar you are S.O.L.

I have international quad core and name display doesn't work even at the incoming call.

Can anyone suggest how to at least get it working like Rogers one x?

Flyiarnk, as far as I know, it's a custom Rogers feature. We don't know how to make it work yet on other phones.

We could do it by flashing a Rogers ROM on an International EVO 3D for example, but now that we have different CPUs I don't think it's doable.

Technically you can flash the ROM, but it'll brick your phone pretty good.

Also, I've done some digging. Check this out: http://communityforums.rogers.com/t5/forums/forumtopicpage/board-id/Android/thread-id/7991/page/1

It seems that Name Display is not currently compatible with LTE. I've tested this by toggling the different mobile network modes, and sure enough, I get the name display when my phone is set to GSM Only, but not when using HSPA or LTE. Bugger. Hopefully Rogers can fix this.

I've just spoken with Rogers support about it. Gave them my software/baseband versions and all that good stuff. The tech added the One X to the list of devices having this problem.

It would probably help put a fire under Rogers' ass if more people reported the issue in a live chat session here:

If you're in the US, Privus Mobile does this as well. I haven't tested it on a One X yet, but it's a great service.

as a note of interest, I recently unlocked an HTC Raider that was on the Bell Mobility network and when I put my Rogers SIM in it I was pleasantly surprised that the caller name presentation was working properly even on a phone that was sold on the Bell network. It seems as though HTC have finally added CNAP to their Android phones.

Note: Rogers does not ever actually add the CNAP feature to phones, it either supports it or it does not, I have had this argument with Rogers for the past 2.5 years, the have no Idea how to add the support to the phones themselves.
