Missed call from private number doesn't show up in Events view. [released]
Today I know I should have received a call from a hidden number. When the phone rang I didn't hear it immediately due to traffic sounds around. When I checked the phone the call had already ended, but the phone didn't indicate I had received a call. As I wasn't sure I received a call, I concluded I hadn't. But when I came home my wife said she tried to call me from work (hospital have hidden numbers in Finland), but couldn't reach me.
In other words, there seems to be a bug. But it would be good to get this confirmed as who knows... perhaps there was some other problem that I couldn't receive the call.
EDIT: Changed title to use 'private' instead of 'hidden'.
EDIT: Added screenshot:
I am OK to be not bugged about a missed call I cannot associate anyway. OTOH other cases like yours are a different story. So if it is a feature, it could be made optional.

c.la ( 2014-02-24 19:17:17 +0200 )editThat sounds weird: on Feb 16 I received 2 calls from a private number (I guess it's the same as a hidden number), I missed them and I got them notified (they are still present in my call log). Just don't remember whether they were notified in the lock screen too or just in the notifications screen. Of course I've been using Sailfish OS v. 1.0.3.8.
Gianluca ( 2014-02-24 19:18:14 +0200 )editI suggest: Check it yourself and try to verify the circumstances. Usually, there is some call-by-call code or setting for the calling phone to enforce the number to be hidden (mobile and landline phone alike).
I just did it: The call is notified and listed in the phone log ("Private number").
jgr ( 2014-02-24 22:11:21 +0200 )editI hadn't thought of checking the call log. It definitely shows 'private number' in the call-log, so the only issue is that it didn't show I had received a private call on the lock/notification-screen.
