    My Droid keeps saying "unknown" everytime a contact calls

    It's so annoying. I can't tell if this person is a stranger or someone who actually knows me. Could someone please tell me how to fix it? The numbers aren't blocked and it's doing this on my brother's Droid as well.

    In your contacts, do you have all 10 digits of the person's phone number, or just 7?

    Check your account online to make sure you still have the caller id feature.

    I'm having the same issue on my DX. Caller ID is enabled on my account. Maybe they screwed up the provisioning when I switched to the DX from the Droid? Anyone else seen this? I'll keep browsing forums as well.

    this happened to me once or twice a while ago. I took the battery out and restarted it and it hasnt happened since. I agree though, it ticked me off beyond belief

    It's because you have no friends....j/k.

    Did you get it fixed?

    It's a provisioning issue. Although I had "Caller ID" as one of the services on my account, it wasn't "enabled" on my line. Contact Customer Service or Tech Support - either can help you.
