Stigy Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 So my TMobile G1 w/ Android does not current support Phone Book Transfer and I saw that I was able to setup 6 Presets for my phone. I was able to set the preset and am able to see the number just fine, but when I click ABC/123 all I get is "Unknown Name". Is there a way to program the name with that number so I can show the name instead of just the number on the presets? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BuffaloSS Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 I think you need to hold down the preset or something and type in the name manually. I had to do this for my presets. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Stigy Posted January 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2009 I tried holding it down and nothing. Anyone else have any other insight? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BuffaloSS Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 I'll have to mess with it later. Since there is no voice-command compatibility, I've just grown used to finding the number & dialing with the phone as opposed to setting presets. Which BT unit are you using?

Stigy Posted January 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 The BT unit is the: CD-BTB200 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tjc005 Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 it's been a while since i messed around with that bt unit, but if i recall, you must transfer your contacts first, and then select one of them as if you were going to make a call, then hold down one of the p1-p6 buttons. i don't believe there was a way to assign a name to a contact unless it was transferred directly from the phone (at least with the hu i was using) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BuffaloSS Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 Oddly enough, when attempting to transfer phonebook entries with either the Moto V3xx or my LG CU920, it disconnects BT when entering transfer mode...then pushes the data across...then reconnects. It does it for each file. Sorry...back to your topic. It could be as tjc mentioned above...if you cannot get your contacts across, you cannot store a number in the preset location. If I go out on an inspection this morning, I'll try to remember to mess with it when I'm in the car. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Stigy Posted January 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 Well my G1 doesn't support contact transfers so in my P1-P6 I have 6 different phone numbers, but with no name. It's not a huge deal since I know the numbers since they are mostly family, but just wondering what I can do about it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IvanRaide Posted January 17, 2009 Report Share Posted January 17, 2009 It can not be done unfortunately. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
