Hi I am using Galaxy SII with Wanam Lite ROM XWLA4. My problem is that I have many local contacts saved with country code. When these contacts call me it appears as unknown number.
For eg My Country A local number is saved as +60-XXXXXXXXX. But when I receive call from this number eg. XXXXXXXXX. It appears only as the number name not displayed like unknown number.
Please help
Guys any updates from anyone?

Hi,
In my country, all phone numbers have 8 digits. The caller ID presented for incoming calls is only those 8 digits, i.e. xxxx xxxx
The 'sender' for incoming SMSes is the full number including country code i.e. +yyy xxxx xxxx
For some android devices (including the one I already have, Sharp Sh7218U) the dialer won't look up the incoming caller name in contacts, because it doesn't match completely - the number stored in contacts is +yyy xxxx xxxx but as sent by telco xxxx xxxx.
The only solution is to add each number to contacts twice - both with and without the country code.
Some other android devices manage to look the number up anyway - I guess they match only the last 8 digits?
Can anyone tell me what the Galaxy S 2 does, and if it checks to make sure all the numbers match, can this be fixed with an alternate ROM?
Erh, my Galaxy S2 has no problem with numbers with the country code and without. If it's stored with +316 or 00316 or not doesn't matter at all.
I'm using Cognition Rom.
No problems for me either

It works (i.e. the caller ID shows up) if you have a number stored in your contacts both with and without the country code? How many numbers is the local part (everything apart from the country code) there?
Do you know if your network sends the full number (incl country code) when a person calls or just the local part?
Sorry for all the questions but I want to make sure!
Thanks
I'm in Brazil and I'm using a Galaxy S 3 that I bought in US. Our numbers are stored as (XXX)prefix-XXXX-XXXX.
When I receive a sms or a call it doesnt show my contact name... only the numbers. When I dial it appears XX XXXX-XX.
How can I change this?
A friend has a S3 he bought in here... when he dials any number they appear without dashes and spaces like this XXXXXXXX.
Anyone could help?
I have TIM operator in Italy and I have 2 numbers on one SIM (one virtual number).
When they call me on second number it appears as 421(+caller number).
With android 2.3.5 the 421 prefix was ignored and caller number was correctly associated with my contacts.
Now with android 4.0.3 and 4.1.2 the 421 when someone in my contacts call me at second number, is no more recognised and appear as 421+caller number without the name.
Is there a way to make android ignore 421 prefix and correctly associate with my contacts if present?
I'm with TIM Italy and a Galaxy GT-19100 4.1.2 LSD rom.
Thanks!

Hello,
I have samsung s3 with revoliunary s5 ROM. I didnt have this problem with my s3 before ROM, so maybe you can help me to fix this problem. The problem is that numbers are shown on incoming calls or messages instead of contact name. But it happens not on all contacts, some are displayed some are not. Maybe its because numbers in my contacts starts without country code, and on incoming call phone shows number starting with country code (+countrycode)*number** . Its something with number formatting but I didnt have this problem on stock/previous custom roms, somehow they recognized who's calling and displayed contact not number, dispite how it was saved(with or without country code at the beggining of number). Is there something I could do ? I really appreciate your help.
