First off, thanks to everyone for making this such a great resource. Although this is my first post I have been helped more times than I can recall.
Here is the issue I am hoping someone can help me with:
I have my outgoing caller ID blocked by default at the network level (cingular). On my BB privacy is turned off. When I add someone to my address book I add *82 to the phone number of anyone I want to see my number. Obviously for those I don't want to see my number I don't. On my 8700 if a person called me whose number was in my address book with the *82 added, their address book entry would be referenced and their name would show up. On the 8800 this isn't happening. If a person who appears in my address book with the *82 calls me, all I see is their number, the phone isn't referencing the address book name.
Does anyone have an idea what I can do to correct this. I have hundreds of address book entries and I really want to have the name show up for incoming calls of those in my address book but I do want to be able to restrict my outgoing ID at times.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions on this.
