When I send or receive a call, I do not have any recording of the phone number of the other phone.

This happened for 2 days. Rebooting is useless.

I erased the log of old calls, but still no result.

Does somebody have an idea ? Thanks

Recaller?

Not sure if this is what you mean or the same, but have a look at this thread.http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=64784
Basically, numbers saved as a name, appear as the number if there are two instances of the same number saved, whether it be in the phone book or contacts saved in the email app. for example.
Hope that makes sense. Here's an example.
I had my dad's mobile saved in phone app as "dad", but also had his details saved in my hotmail contacts as " Peter" (his name), so the phone app doesn't know which name to use for that number, so uses neither. But as I say, I am not sure if this is what you meant the problem is.

Ahh right, I see. Well, I haven't a clue to be honest. I, and maybe others, was unclear about what app you were talking about.

Sorry mate.

It might be that the database has been corrupted.

If you can manage the xterm, close all applications and do the following:
then reboot and make a call. The db will be recreated.

If it doesn't help to restore do the reverse, i.e.
hope it helps

Edit: both commands are one line

The situation has evolved.
I cannot open apps manager (apt-get or dpkg fails because of disk full)
I cannot either open the preview of my pictures, only see one by one from file manager.

df shows a roots partition with 0 space available. (sometimes, df does not even work)

So it looks like my (too small) root partition is full.

Since dpkg does not work, what can I safely remove and how to make a little space and remove some apps correctly afer ?

That would cause your database to corrupt as well... Always good to keep an eye on how full they get. None should get more full that 90%.

One easy trick is to startup appman and disable all the extra repositories (especially extras-devel). That alone should give it enough space to refresh and let you remove packages safely.

If appman won't even startup, one place to find some quick space is in /usr/share/themes Just pick one you're not using (and NOT alpha) and remove that folder. For example, you had one named "alpine" you're not using, remove it with:

That should give you enough free space to run app man again.

As for where to find large files, that's tricky, since it depends on what you have installed. A quick way to find large files is with du. Login (via ssh or xterm) and become root, and run du on your file system like this:
This will show you how much storage is held by each folder. Look for the larger numbers, use cd to go into those folders and look for larger files. Don't remove anything from a lib or bin file, those are important! Best is if you can find jpeg or mpeg files. Removing the "tutorial video" package is a nice space saver too.
