Fix caller ID if you use Gevey SIM

I suppose that by now you all know that there is a card that you insert together with your SIM in the iPhone 4 and it allows you to use it with any operator. It's called Gevey SIM and you can buy it here.

Many of our readers have it, but they have problems with the caller ID, the number appears on the screen but not the name of the contact.

The solution is simple, you just have to add +34 to the number of each contact and it will display correctly.

If you have jailbreak it is even easier, you just have to install CALLERID-Format Fix from Cydia.

    Here in Argentina I solved it in the following way, since with CallerId I could not solve it.

    Try following these steps and then tell me:

    1. The iPhone must be jailbroken and have Cydia installed.
    2. Open Cydia and install iFile.
    3. Close and open the installed Cydia iFile.
    4. Go to: / System / Library / Frameworks / UIKit.framework / PhoneFormats
    5. Right click on the UIMobileCountryCodes.plist and open it with text viewer.
    6. Click Edit in the upper left corner.
    7. Change the 202 to 001
    8. Change elgra (Your country two-letter code that eg for Italy, fr for France)
    9. Save and close iFile. Restart your iPhone!

    I hope it helps you, I solve everything, calls, call logs and sms ...

    Regards!

      It worked perfectly for me in Mexico (with the prefix mx) on an Iphone4 with ios 5.01 with jailbreake… I can already see who is calling me when my little baby starts playing the marimba when receiving a phone call.

      Excellent guide !!

    Hi all.

    I need help. I have received the deal extreme gevey and I am not able to make it work on my Vodafone iphone4. I have followed the steps and there is no way. I have software 4.2.1 + BB 02.10.04. I have read but it is not clear to me that it could be by updating software without uploading BB.
    Someone could help me?

  15.   daniel said

    I have a solution that I use and it serves 100% they go to cydia sources and add this repo; HTTP: // IPSF.CO.IL

    once installed enter the repo and download CALLER ID and voila

  16.   George said

    Well, I see that raising any questions in this forum is quite useless. Thanks anyway for the person who has rated it even if they have no answer.

  17.   watch out said

    The file modification worked perfectly, rather the cydia application does not work ... Thanks

  23.   Manuel castro said

    Thanks guys, the solution to modify the file for Boliva also worked perfectly.!

  24.   oscar said

    The solution that worked for me without having to resort to any cydia package was the following:

    Settings / General / Reset / Reset Settings (all this always with the Gevey inside

    the phone restarts, wait a moment and that's it ... my iphone 4 recognized the entire agenda without any problem

    1.    Marco said

      This is done with the sim that the gevey brings or with the one you want to use?

    2.    Roly said

      Resetting settings also worked for me, Thanks !!!

  25.   Emerson said

  26.   Iman said

    Excellent, it worked, take into account that the two letters of your country are in lowercase, now I want to know how to turn off the iPhone 4 with the gebey and I do not want to do the configuration again with the airplane mode etc etc thank you from Ecuador

What can I do to activate the iPhone again and not lose anything I had. and how can cidya be put to free it

  29.   MAYRA said

    CONGRATULATIONS FROM MEXICO !!!
    IF IT WORKED TO ADD THE +52 BEFORE THE NUMBER, IT ALREADY IDENTIFIES THE CALLS.

  30.   daniel said

    PLEASE DO NOT GET COMPLICATED
    SIMPLY WITH THE GEVEY SIM IN-SETTINGS- GENERAL- RESET- RESET SETTINGS AND READY RECOGNIZES ALL IDS

  31.   unfor said

    I solved the problem by adding the international code of my country (+ 52) (Mexico) ... before the 10-digit cell phone number used in my country ...

    so without installing anything .. it made me better to add the pure code when I ask for a number that I want to write on my iphone ...

    I hope it serves you ...
