Hi. I tried several rom including MIUI and Official after ICS Official were released.
The problem is
I usually save my close people contact number in international form
e.g. +61412345678 and +6628888888 so when I am abroad on travelling or business trip, i can text them back easily.
However, with ICS, when I call these contacts for example 028888888 from (contact saved as +6628888888), the phone won't recognize the contact name. The same problem exists when they call me.
Is there any fix on this?
No such problem in GB for me.
Known issue in Miui V4 for contacts which have a country code in the saved phone number. No idea about stock ICS.

I am using Dual Sim China clone phone of HTC Incredible S (Model No. S710F). The OS is android 2.3.9. The problem is described below:
All my contacts are stored in international format. ie. with country code (eg. +1 xxxxxxxxx). when I receive any call locally, it display only the number of the caller. His number already available in the contacts with country code, but he is calling locally (from same country). But if I receive any call from abroad, it displays the contact name correctly.
I am residing in QATAR. Is it related to the service provider? Is there any fix available to solve this issue?
It would be very much appreciated if someone help me.
Thanks in advance.
Can you provide screenshot?
Understood your problem. Just wanted to see more clearly
Accidentally sent from my Google Nexus S using XDA Premium
I am having the same issue, but reversed.
I have contacts saved in my phone without the country code (+61 here in Australia)
Incoming calls and texts on the latest ROM I'm using MIUI V4 ICS (SGS2) don't display the contact, just the number including the country code.
In my last ROM which was MIUI also but 2.3.7 all contacts where recognised fine but regardless of country code or not but now it wont.
Is there a known fix for this, short of updating all my contacts manually.
Or is there a way to batch change all my contacts?

Part of your problem is that there was no android version 2.3.9. That is a custom knock off version that tends to come on those types of phone.
As for these issues best bet would be to ask on MIUI site as no development for MIUI is done on XDA.
Hi all,
a few day ago,I update my phone via Kies to ICS 4.0.3 (T-Mobile Germany) and after that,every time I get a new SMS from someone on my contact list, it only shows the number of the person and not the name on the SMS list. The problem is that the all contacts are saved as xxxxxxxxx , and when I go in my contact list,number are saved just like that but shows in xxx xxxxxx,with space between and after three number,number of area codes. One of the solutions is to change contact, first edit number and put space after first three,and save, but it is a hard work.
Does anyone else been experiencing this and is there any way to fix it? Can't really see why the update caused this, just seems weird, and hope there is a way around it or just wait for a new update? I also hope that someone will find a solution to format and fix contacts!

Facing the same problem on Galaxy note, Stock 4.0.3
I'm facing the exact same issue on the stock ICS on Galaxy note , build IML74K.DDLP8 .
Contact names do not show up in the call log/message log.
I have Whatsapp installed and have ~250 contacts synced with Google contacts.

-- Bug reported here --
I have an unlocked Galaxy S2 running stock Gingerbread (2.3.4), unrooted. A problem has arisen whereby I can no longer send SMS's to one of my contacts (it has never been a problem before). I've tried deleting all previous message threads with that contact, but it didn't help. I then tried deleting the contact and sending an SMS to her number. The message was sent, but when I got a reply I was unable to reply to it. The reply also picked up the other person's name from somewhere, even though I'd deleted the contact from both the phone and my Gmail account.
I've tried both Handcent and the stock messaging app, and neither is able to send an SMS to this person. Other contacts are fine.
Can anyone suggest a fix?

it could be a problem in your network.. i had experienced that before, i tried flashing different firmwares and etc but it still didn't fix the problem.. so might as well call you network provider.
or you could also try to reset to factory settings/wipe data or better yet flash a new firmware
Hi
I too haven't had this problem but a similar one where I can't access contacts on sum card. I think if you have had your phone rooted.and installed ics or another rom it formats it slightly different i think because when I installed the aroma rom I had on when I saved the contacts I could see them but when I switched roms they disappeared. Not sure this answers all your question but might explain why her name popped up after you deleted it. Try installing a simcard viewer I tried this as my next solution and was able to see prior contacts there is one somewhere with no permissions I think.
Hope I helped
The same problem has occured on my Galaxy SII: After the SMS-thread from one contact got deleted I can't send SMS to her, I get status "failed" and under message details it says "Error code 1", I receicve messages from her but can't answer them, however an MMS with a picture got sent yesterday.
Has anyone with similar problems found an answer?
I eventually flashed new firmware: Stock ICS via Kies (4.0.4). Still can't send an SMS to the contact though. Has anyone else resolved this yet?
4.1.2
Stock Firmware JZO54K.I9300XXEMC2
After resetting and starting from scratch, I have loaded my contacts with my Gmail contacts.
Many of the contacts have multiple numbers : home, work, mobile
In the Phone app, using keypad I noticed, when your contact has more than one phone number, it does not show all its numbers, just the first one or the one marked as default.
I find this annoying.
I hope there is a person in this forum that uses the stock dialer....and can tell me if there is a way I can use keypad and be given a choice of all numbers that a contact has?
I just bought s9+ and this my first ever Samsung phone. been using stock android ever since. in stock phone asked which number i want to dial. google account setup and synced. no sync errors.
I have several contacts with 2 or 3 numbers saved under one name. problem is contact list one shows one number only. is there a way to get the rest? I'm stuck without a way to contact people because some people use their personal number after working hours etc...
Please help me. thank you
What version of the phone do you have, and where are you seeing only one number? My Sprint 9+ shows all numbers I have for a contact when I view it in the Contacts app.
