Issues with recognizing phonebook contact for incoming calls and sms

All my contacts use international number format (+xxxxxxxxxx) and are stored on gmail severs. Unboxed and setup the desire with my gmail, facebook and twitter accounts. Synced well and got all my facebook and gmail contacts. Here's the issues I'm having:
- I live in Lebanon where incoming numbers display 03123456 (03 is the mobile prefix) whereas i have stored them as +9613123456. My desire is not matching the incoming call to the corresponding entry in the phonebook. Never had this problem before on Nokia & BB.
- Incoming SMS seems to be working fine and matching the right contact. However, when I receive an SMS from an unknown short number (any commercial message), the desire matches the sms to a random facebook contact based on some weird recognition algorithm. Worse, if I click on that contact's avatar in the message thread, I get an application error (process com.android.mms has stopped unexpectedly...)
Any insight would be appreciated. Hoping for an easy fix!
I had the very same problem (commercial messages...) I deleted the contacts that were appearing (didnt use them often...). After deleting the 2nd or 3rd the problem was rectified. Not sure exactly why it was associating those contacts to the messages???
Strange.....
I noticed that these matched accounts had bogus data in their Facebook profile (phone number).
My major concern is the first issue. Anyone having the same problem?
Bump. Anyone?

[Q] Weird Stock SMS app issue, please help.

Hello,
I have a weird issue with the SMS app for my HTC one (M8) as well as my friend's phone!
when I receive a message, the name of the person who sent the message to me does not show up in the sms app, instead the number is shown (basically as if the sender's number is not saved in my address book). however, after about 15-20 minutes the name will be shown.
to note, both of us have our contacts saved in Google, so all the contact addresses are synced with google.
anyone else facing the same issue?
anyone knows a possible solution??
Thanks & regards,
Abdullah
Maybe go into app settings for mms and contacts and delete all data to reset to default. Reboot then resynch contacts.

Lost SMS messages after unblocking contact.

Hello all, can anyone help. The question is basically in the title. I blocked a contact whilst I was receiving messages. I've unblocked the contact to find I don't have the specific contact's SMS texts sent previously anymore. It's as if they've been deleted. Can't find them in any other directory.
Anyone help?
