    Hey there. In the group chat on the above part where the group name is, it would show which contacts are in the group chat. I can see all my friends name but it shows my number. is this normal or should my number be shown as "you"? It is as though whatsapp does not recognise my number.

    I have already went into setting, security & privacy and put in the same number in the sim card as in the whatsapp. Any solution to this or is q10 just made to be that way? Thanks.

    do you have yourself as a contact in your main contact app? if not it'll only recognize you by number

    Hi Amir,
    First off, welcome to CrackBerry!
    Please update your profile to include device, carrier, and location. This makes it easier for others to help you.

    From Hub or home screens, swipe down from top and select Settings. Scroll down to Security and Privacy, then select Application Permissions. Find WhatsApp and ensure all permissions are set to On. Hit Back to save if you made any changes, then close Settings.

    If everything was already On, then follow advice of both posts above and make a contact for yourself in Contacts app.

    This specific issue is a bug, and should be fixed in the next release. The suggested workarounds, which involve adding your number to the phone's address book, should help take care of it for now.
