I used that solution for months, but eventually became sick of it and stopped using my Ubuntu phone because of this bug. It may be operator dependant, but I required an activate code each time I turned on my phone or turned off flight mode. It seems that (at least with my operator, Sonera Finland) that the phone sends a deactivate callerID by default when initially connecting to the GSM network.
A temporary fix for this could be to update the OS so that callerID is activated and sent by default. I've read, though, that some people claim that CallerID is apparently activated by default, but this doesn't seem to be the case when used with my local operator. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to dialer-app in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1495120 Title: No function to explicitly enable Caller ID Status in dialer-app package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: My phone network uses a secret Caller ID by default.
