    Just bought a Curve, but cant find the answers to my questions, please help

    1. How can I get the curve to display the phone number format as "XXX-XXX-XXXX", and not "XXXXXXXXXX"?

    2. I have OS 4.5.0.55 and object push from other cell phones doesn't work. Any way to get it working?

    Thanks

    Enter it as XXX-XXX-XXXX instead of XXXXXXXXXX.

    Yeah that's one thing I don't like about BB's...whenever you get a call from someone that isn't in your contacts it comes up as 123456789. It would be so much easier to read if it came up as 123-456-789. How hard would that be?

    If the number is in your address book, it gets the number as it is formatted in your address book. Every number in mine (for US and Canadian contacts) is formatted (xxx) xxx-xxxx. No problem at all.

    But that's my point...callers who aren't in your address book show up all mixed together. And those are more important to me because if the caller is in my address book I will be looking at their name not their number.
