Does cell phones have caller id type things...read more?

Question

cell phone numbers aren't in directory's or anything so can a person still find out who you are by just having your number.... for instance if i call person A with my cell phone and they pick up and we talk and everything...then hang up..can he find out who called them if he forgot...i guess i'm trying to say is there some kind of caller id that can be used on cell phones?....sooo if you have a cell phone and a random person calls you can you find out who that is

i am not looking for just the number but am looking for an actual name ....i know if you go under calls received you can see the number that just called you but if you don't even know that person and they arent in your phonebook is there anyway you can find out who they are besides calling them back and asking them

Answer 1

if i get your question, then no . Your name won't show up, only your number will be in their recent calls. But it isn't like home phone caller ID where is says "Call From Smith J"

Answer 2

Your friend (or wrong number!) can look under "calls received," and unless you have signed up for caller-ID blocking, your number will be in there. I called my supervisor from my cell phone; she called back and did not leave a message. Her number appeared under "missed calls"; the system at work is configured so that a specific number appears on caller-ID if anyone from work calls someone with caller-ID. The number is not my supervisor's number. :-)

Answer 3

You name still pops up on the caller ids

Answer 4

Yeah, usually the number is saved automatically on the persons cell phone. all they have to do is look under "call recieved"

Answer 5

If that person has caller i.d., yes
