Just got my hands on S22 Ultra Snapdragon. It appears I have the HK Variant? (SM-S9080/DS, CSC: S9080OZS2AVDC)
The issue appears to be that some contacts are showing numbers rather than the names. (Phone being used in the Middle East). The problem appears to be with the contacts with the international code but it is not the case for all of them. However, when I switch the application to "Phone" by google, it is all correctly displayed.
Any way I can fix the Samsung phone application? Thanks
As a guess, if Arabic characters are used maybe that's the issue with Samsung app? In any case, report it via Samsung Members app.
I've contact saved with +44 123456776 where +44 is the country code.
When I make call, it shows the correct name. However when I recevie a call, as the call is coming from 123456776 without country code, only number is displayed and contact does show up (As it was saved with a country code). Not sure if this make sense and I am struggling to understand why it would do it.
The mobile was purchased in HK so could it be something to do with the different region? Thanks
Found this which is my issue;
Contacts not recognized when receiving a call
I've just got my Galaxy s7 edge and everything seems to work fine apart from my contacts. I have an Exchange Server account connected for Mail, Calendar, and Contacts; and all my contacts have been synchronized with the phone. The problem is that...

Appears to be a regional issue. Any idea which rom can I flash to fix this issue? The device is S9080 and the current CSC is BRI. Thanks

Hey guys, so i have a problem. I know that in the contacts I can hide all the repeated contacts, meaning the duplicates that show up from google, and t-mobile, and the ones on the SIM card. I have all my contacts linked thro HTC facebook. But when I go to the dialer or to send message it shows all my contacts, so some people show up 4 times!
Is there anyway to hide all the duplicate contacts in dialer and MMS, and secondly, when I receive a message from someone it shows their SIM contact which has no picture and their name as I put it in, and not as it has been "linked"
Thanks in advance!
I am on the same boat. Its annoying cause I only want the Google contacts. Mines has both synced T-Mobile backup and Google. Gonna reset the phone and remove the T-Mobile app before I sync anything and get back to u
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA App
I had this problem and it was unbelievably frustrating when I first got this and after a few days of searching and banging my head against the wall, I found something that worked.
This is how you solve it (or how I solved mine).
1: Sync everything to Google. Edit the contact list in google (use the automatic duplicate deletion), delete useless contacts etc.
2. Remove contacts from EVERYWHERE. Sim card, phone, uncheck google sync. Your phone should then be completely empty for contacts.
3. Re-sync with google contacts. if you want you can copy it back to the SIM and you shouldn't get doubles. I think I just left it with google only but the end result is I don't have 9 different "danny's" show up when I go to compose new message because I know three of them.
Ok great, I'll try that out.. When they gave me my phone, I told the employee at the store that I didn't want the tmobile contacts, and yet, she still set it up. I hope they fix these silly thongs with the update
Try this
I had the same problem, shows same contact more then 1 time. i resolved it this way
1) Go to Contacts (App)
2) Press Menu button (2nd touch button from left)
3) Select View
4) Now select (Check Mark) the contact you want to see. in my case i unchecked all option but Google and Facebook for HTC
5) Select done.
now it will only shows single entry for each contact
Thanks
I have and HTC desire S and I live in Mauritius (country code +230). Unfortunately, the full capacity of an HTC phone such as HTC sense is not working here due to whatever reasons and my phone was bought in Italy.
My problem with my phone is that whenever i save a number (1234567) without the country code in my phone contacts (saved on google contacts), and if i get a message from that person, it shows itself as +2301234567 in the messages section. And if i save the number by +2301234567 in the phone contacts, it will then show as 1234567 in the messages section. Every time this happens, I have to manually save the number again to the contact so that it contains both the number with and without the country code:
For Eg:
Jerry
Call mobile 1234567
Call Other +2301234567
I need to save it both ways in order for it to be recognised in the phone contacts and the messages. Any idea how to fix it?
Hello!
I'm having a few "bugs" on my Moto G Global GSM running stock EU Retail software on top of AeroKernel and Gravity Box on it.
1. Making calls issue: it seems like my phone is not getting "mobile provider settings" regarding showing my number when placing a call. As a result, i can't call home phone numbers in my country - i can call mobile numbers any time, but if i want to call home number, i need to go to phone -> settings -> additional settings and wait for the settings to load. Only then can I call these numbers.
2. Receiving MMS: how can i enable auto-download MMS messages on stock messaging app? I mean the situation when my data is off, then it autoconnects when mms comes, then it disconnects. It is like this on custom roms, as far as I know, but i'd like to have it on stock software.
3. Contact list issue: my contacts are doubled. How can i solve this? All of my contacts are from my Gmail account only, no contacts on SIM or from storage. The weird thing is, when I open Contacts app, it shows my contacts as it should, but when i open Phone app and try to search for somebody, the entries are doubled. oh, okay, i fixed that already. my contacts on google account were all doubled or trippled - though i have no idea why!
So, these are issues I'm having that prevent me from enjoying my phone in 100% . I wish somebody can help me with these! I'd really appreciate that!
Thanks in advance,
Kumczak
Hi all
I installed the google dialer (2.5.11) on my galaxy S7 (stock 8.0.0).
While I can access my contacts and it shows me my favorites it does not show me contact information in the history tab and on top of that the contact info does not show up when I call someone.
Even worse, it does not show the info when a contact calls me...
Does anybody have an idea why this might be?
I checked every thing that pops into my mind.
I reinstalled the dialer and gave the permissions to read the contacts yet again
The funniest thing is: By chance I put in the phone number by hand for a contact and it showed the info in the call. But only for that contact up until now. But when I call that very same contact from my contacts app it doesn't show the info again.
I simply don't get it... It just doesn't make any sense to me. 1/5232135 times it seems to work barely and otherwise not.
It seems like it can access the info somehow in the contact tab of the dialer app (the way with entering the number by hand) but can't access the contacts of the contacts app (when calling from the contacts app or receiving calls)
Any thoughts?
Much appreciated
Hi, I'm using the Chinese ROM version 12S Ultra and whenever I get a normal phone call and the contact is saved in my contacts there is no name showing. Yet, when the call is done and i check the call logs, the name shows there.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Try long press on the icon contact/information/verify that the necessary permissions are granted.
In the app settings, check that: display photos and info and assign photos are activated.
Hide incomplete numbers disable.
If it still doesn't work, delete the contact app data.
