A number of our users have been repeatedly asking us to provide sender name instead of mobile number when displaying the message from 160by2 on your mobile phone. We are pleased to roll out this feature now.
Now if you send a message from 160by2.com to your friend and if she has saved you in her contacts at 160by2, we will display your name (as saved by her) instead of your mobile number. Let me make it a bit more clear with an example -
Rahul and Pooja are both 160by2 users and have added each other in their 160by2.com contacts. When Rahul sends an SMS to Pooja, it will show up on Pooja’s mobile as – Rahul: <message> instead of 9866854545: <message>.
Q – What if I have saved a contact name that is more than 10 characters?
A – In that case only first 10 characters of contact name will identify the sender. So a contact called “Rahul College” will be displayed as “Rahul Coll”
160by2 Tip: It is useful to save all your contacts with names less than 10 characters long!
Q- What if the receiver is not a 160by2 member?
A- In that case the sender’s mobile number will identify the sender as it is being done now.
160by2 Tip: Get all your contacts to register on 160by2.com for easy identification
Q- What if my different friends save my number with different nick names?
A- Each friend will receive your message in the name of nick name he/she has used to save your number. So it’s your friend who decides how he/she wants to see your name to be displayed like. This is exactly how we save it on our mobiles, isn’t it?
Hope you will like this feature and our spirit to continuously improve your messaging experience at 160by2.com. Looking forward to your feedback and less than 10 character contact names!

After this method came into action i cannot send sms through the drop down menu selection , when i select an id only the first 10 characters of a name appears and i get an error prompt while sending a sms , which say ” not a valid number ” . Coz of this i have to copy paste numbers from contacts.
August 6th, 2007 at 11:05 am
Yeh, I’m having the same problem as Abhishek Vij.
This would be a nice feature though. Wating…
August 6th, 2007 at 9:01 pm
Hi Preshit and Abhishek, thanks for your comments and feedback.
The issue that you have highlighted is a bug that one is encountering when accessing the site from Firefox browser. This is not related to “contacts name” feature but is still an issue that needs quick resolution.
Our technical team is currently looking into it, and will fix it ASAP. Please bear with us till then.
August 6th, 2007 at 10:20 pm
Preshit, Abhishek
The issue reported by you has been fixed. Thanks for pointing it out.
August 7th, 2007 at 8:00 am

hey,
nice work man!
its working.
but still one query.
my name is Harsh Pandit and as we know it will take 10 char.
so the “harsh pand” = 10 char.
now, i like to be “Harsh P” only.
is it possible?
means can i change the name will be shown in sms?
from,
harsh
