Hey,
So basically I can't send a message to anyone with a space in the number
so if its +44 7900 000 000 or +44 7900 000000 it will refuse to send it ?
Whats up with that
How do I file that as a bug ?
gonna install Textra for the meantime

My contacts get formatted phone numbers by the Contacts app and spaces are there (not inserted by me, but by the system) and all works just fine.

I new to this group, but just like you all i am also experiencing problems with my XDA.
When sending and email or SMS with I select a name form my addressbook;
in case of an SMS when I click (touch) the name it paste the email address , instead of mobile phone number; and when I want to send an email it paste gsm numbers or others.
Do you recognise this problem and have you got an answer?
Thanks!
No, same problem here.... no solution yet

Do you have an idea why some of my SMS conversation show the number instant of the contact ?
I even tried to create a NEW conversation using the contact, as soon as the SMS is sent, the contact is gone and I only see the number.
Both the working and the non-working have the same number format xxx-xxx-xxx
Thanks!
Just an update.
When I receive a new SMS from the non-working user, the notification bar show his name, but in the SMS, it still only show the number.
Tried to update contact to x-xxx-xxx-xxxx or (xxx) xxx-xxxx or x (xxx) xxx-xxxx ... still not working...
I tried to erase the contact and re-create it from the "Create contact" option with-in the SMS... samething !
Ok, here is my problem. My conutry code is 505, I have my contact list, if I received an sms it will show the number not the name in my contact, so I discover that is when a Contact write to me some time (think is a network related stuff) it adds an +505 to the number I have in contact, so my phone does not link that sms to my contact. And If I tried to fix adding the +505 to the contact number it now shows the name in sms, but when they called me....it shows just the number...its a little confusing. Is there a way to fix that?
Hello!
I have this weird problem with my Galaxy SII that I can't reply to some contacts SMS. I've noticed that in theese cases the sendres phone number is like this: ,+XXX XXX XXX notice the "," before the numbre. And the phone says; Invalid recipients entered.
I can reply by makeing new message and adding the contacts number again and the thread is showing ut niceliy but I can't reply directly.
It only heappens to few certain contacts.
Any ideas?

So the actual problem is "," . When you are sending SMS to two contacts, then your format should be like :
+XXX XXX XXX,+XXX XXX XXX [Notice the "," between the numbers]
For sending to a single contact :
+XXX XXX XXX ie. You don't need any "," , while sending SMS to a single contact .
Hope this solves your problem . :laugh:
I can't delete the "," that's the problem. Its just there. Its not in my contact profile, it's in the sms application. Please see added picture.
If I compose the text and push send it says Invalid recipients entered
If I go to new message-> add recipient and find the same contact from my phone book then I can send the SMS eventually but that pretty annoiyng.

Happy days. Glad you sorted it out
I can add a contact in google and phone with many many symbols(dont know the exact number), but when I trie to add a contact in my SIM card I have a limit that is 14 symbols Why is that ?
Maybe because SIM Cards have limited storage.

SIM card (Subscriber identity module) is designed to help you communicate (gives you a phone number and stuff)...sure it is capable of storing some text messaging (like 40 SMS of max 160 characters per SMS) and contacts (150-200 contacts) but the SIM card is not designed to be user friendly (to have a contact named Mike @ $$$) you can simply add something like: Mom +40 754 215 741 - and that's it nothing more nothing less
