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.

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.

Guys, a strange Hangouts problem - When I add new contacts, if I receive a Hangouts message from them, in the Hangouts list of messages it only shows their mobile number - not their contact name. The strange thing is that in Notifications and when I go into that contacts message it actually shows their name.
So, in short - I have a contact stored with their name and number. If I receive a Hangout message from that person it DOESN'T show their name in the Hangout list of messages. BUT it does show their name once I open that message. It also shows their name in Notifications!
Strange!!!

I have this issue sometimes. Sometimes clearing the cache for Hangouts or removing the thread works.
Thanks for the suggestion. Alas that didn't work for me! Strange!
I really like the N5 but there are so many little niggles with it... annoying little niggles... that can lead a man to jump ship back to fruit, which is good for you!

Sign out and sign back in seems to be the best solution so far.
A full uninstall of hangouts then reinstall will work every time.

Thanks. I've tried signing out and back in again. That didn't work. Will try uninstalling and reinstalling it. I'm presuming I will lose my existing messages, right?!?!?
Happens to me when I add a number to my contact list, I myself have tried clearing cache and reinstalling etc, still the same.
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,
I cant see the contacts in SMS app. They disappear, and app only shows number. When you get into a SMS thread then it suddenly updates the Contact name. I dunno why is that. Do you know how to solve this ?

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
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...
forum.xda-developers.com
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
