Dear All,
I'm experiencing a very strange issue with my WP7 HTC HD2, when receiving call form my saved contacts.
Almost all my contacts are saved in my phone with international dialing code as I'm living abroad.
When I receive call abroad, the name of my contact is displayed.
When I receive call at home the name is not displayed, only the number is displayed and I dont know who is calling while the number is saved in my phone with international dialing code.
To have the name displayed I have to save the number again without international dialing code.
I have the same issue when I dialing also.
Please help.

Hi to all geeks,
I am using my phone some time but I have a problem with the setup of the contacts,
how can u separetly put a mobile phone number and a text message number under the same contact? Every time a cell number entered it goes the same way to text message number too.
I use a 800 number and a pin code before I dial the phone number that I reach, this cause the call history to get the wrong names from adress book. For example
I call BBB but call history shows I call AAA, just because first 10 digits is the same.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Hi.
Is there a way to change phone number to contact name in SMS I'm receiving when someone is calling when I'm not online?
When I will go back online I'm receiving SMS with informmation that someone from number xxxxxxx was calling.
I got this person on my contact list, I want to see name instead of phone number.

try to store the contact with international acces number (+49 for germany)
Well, then the problem would be that if the particular contact calls (voice call), then the name might not be displayed...
I noted an issue with caller ID and the firmware that I'm using (JM1 "New").
Whenever I receive I call, the phone recognize the phone and select the correct contact on my agenda. But whenever I'm on roaming of when I receive and SMS the phone can't identify the correct contact in my phonebook, and show the caller number (or sender number on SMS) instead of the contact in my phonebook.
I don't know if anyone else had this issue, or if it's an issue related to the Brazilian mobile phone infrastructure but I didn't had this kind of issues on my previous phones (Windows Mobile, Symbiam or Blackberry) and I would like to know how to solve this.
Important information: Here in Brazil, when you want to make a long distance call you have to choose the long distance operator on each call. In order to do so you have to select the operator using a two digit code after the long distance code "0" and before the city code. So it's like this:
0 XX 11 99999999
Long distance Operator City Phone
code code code number
So, in order to make this easy, I already included the Operator code in all contacts in my agenda, like: 0411199999999
But when I receive a call (from someone not in my agenda) it doesn't include the operator code. It shows only the phone number if the caller is from my city (99999999) or 0+city code+number when the caller is from other city (02199999999), without the operator code.
So I think that the issue is that the phone tries to match ALL the numbers from caller ID with the first numbers for that contact. So if the caller ID shows "99999999" it will match it with my agenda if I have "099999999", or "0411199999999). So as long as it finds the "99999999" it doesn't matter how long the number in my agenda is.
But sometimes (like when I'm on roaming or when I'm receiving and SMS) the caller ID shows an additional zero in from of the number (099999999). Since the phone can't match all the Caller ID numbers it can't find the contact in my agenda and shows the caller number instead of the contact.
So in order to this work for me it should only match the first 8 numbers from the caller ID with my phonebook. Does anyone know how to solve this? Is there a way to change the agenda configuration in order to match only the first 8 numbers?
Just switched my VZW G5 from VZ to ATT (unlocked, non dev)
I'm noticing my synced google contacts don't show up when I get a call.
When I call them, it works, the phone app shows their name and number, but when they call me, I just see the number even though that number is in my contact list.
I have noticed when I call out, the contact number is displayed with the country code ( 1 ) and the 1 isnt there when I get a call. Could that be it?

I believe that is your problem. I had to change my numbers to 9 digit instead of 6. (area code) 123-4567 if any are not the 9 digit format they only show up as a number with no name.
All my numbers stored have area codes. Another weird issue: when i call people back from the recents tab of the phone app, i get a busy signal or an error for making an international call, when its my area code.. I look at the number dialed and its just the same number with a space between the first and second digit, altering the number.

Same issues here - Verizon S6 (G920V) on AT&T, ever find a solution?
I recently upgraded from the SAMSUNG NOTE 3 to the NOTE 4. Awesome phone! Running: Android 4. 4. 4
But there is a problem:
All my Contacts are saved with the international dialling code format (+44 123 etc).
When I receives calls in my local area, which come without the international dialling prefix, only the number shows, no contact name though it is in my CONTACTS database.
Any SMS Text and all international calls are okay, as these come with the international dialling code and phone recognises the number and Contact.
Currently, the only workaround, which I find unacceptable, is to save the Contact name and number twice, once with the international dialling code, and another as it would be received as a local number.
This is unacceptable, as it would mean doing this for every single number i have, otherwise when i travel the overseas numbers (now local) would not show a Contact name.I have 7,500 Contacts, never been a problem when i was using the NOTE 3.
I understand from a couple of others using the same phone they are experiencing the same problem. Does anyone know how to resolve this? Please help
