hi .. my pearl 8100 is unable to do caller ID when caller's number is stored in my phone with an international dialling code (+44...). In order to have caller ID, I must store my contacts' details without the international dialling codes . is this a pearl problem? Is there a way to fix it? Thanks, R12345

R12345, have you checked your Smart Dialing setup on the 8100? Look at Phone > Options > Smart Dialing. Enter your country code and area code there.

JSanders .. thanks. I did try that BUT there is no SMART DIALING in my pearl!!

so, would mind listing what is listed under Phone > Options?

About, Advanced Options, Auto on/off, Auto Text, Bluetooth, Custom Worldlist, Date/Time, Language, Location Based Services, MMS, Network, Owner, Screen/Keyboard, Security Options, SMS, Status, Theme, Voice Dialling.

I believe I asked you to go to PHONE then Options.

In other words, go to the PHONE DIALER screen, click the menu, then options... then Smart Dialing... then etc.

sorry about that .. I found it now and inserting the numbers as we speak. I hope it works. Many Thanks.

You are very welcome, common mistake.
