on my Q9C, if you go into edit the contact, one of the boxes is file as. you can switch it there. RB has a program in his ap page that does it also. just look in his signature for the link to his page.

I believe that is determined by the network. I am with Sprint, and when I call my house, it just shows up as Wireless Caller on my home caller id.

hellachopper, dafoxs is referring to how caller id shows up on your Q, not how caller id shows up on your land line.

Contact Changer is the ap. when you edit the contact, that changes how it shows up on your phone only.

My bad, you can fix it on your cell. some landlines have the option to store contacts also.

only way is that other phone has to store you as a contact.

that has nothing to do with your phone. you need to call your carrier and see if there is anything they can do.
