S2 Not Recognising Phone Names In Contacts For Incoming Calls

[Digitalbanana]

After I upgraded my S2 to ICS via Keis, I notice all incoming calls show number (local format with a leading 0) but not name of caller from contacts. All my contacts have country code prefixes - needed as I travel a lot and swap to local SIMS. If I change the contact to a leading 0 then the incoming call displays name of caller. Is there a fix to this or am I doing something wrong by chance? Perhaps it is phone service related, but I didn't have problem before upgrading Adnroid from 2.3.6 to 4.0.3

This is really annoying me at moment that a Smart Phone cannot do the most basic of functions - tell me who's calling!

I'm not seeing this issue on either an SGS1 (4.0.4) or SGS2 (official 4.0.3/I9100). Any incoming calls which have directory entries display the directory entry name associated with the number, any picture and and the number, albeit as 08 nnnn nnnn.

I suspect it may be some issue with your configuration although I'm not sure what it may be exactly?

I assume you've verified that the people calling you are indeed entered into your directory?

Yes, in phone book. I have only noticed it since traveling overseas (about same time I upgraded to ICS) and now I have inserted a local SIM card (Metfone - Cambodia) and get this problem. I didn't have the problem with earlier version of Android when travelling. In Thailand I have yet to test. Very annoying will continue to work on it I guess until get a solution...

I had that problem on a Nokia N96 once, without me having done anything at all to the phone (no updates, whatever).

I also have all my contacts stored in international (+xxx) format and one day out of the blue, my phone started showing me incoming numbers (formatted 0xxx xxx xxx) instead of people.

In that case, 100% the problem was caused by the folks at the switch fiddling with their caller ID settings for whatever reason.

Never found a solution other than to remove the +xxx portion of the people who called me most, in my phone book. Absolutely wasn't the phone's fault, as far as I can tell.
