Good day to all! We need your help at the forum this problem and its solution is not found, the following problem: when an incoming call is displayed on the watch only the phone number of the incoming call without a name and photo. In the contact list, contacts there with the name and photo, missed call notification is displayed with the name, number and photo of the contact. By voice command contact watch to make calls on his behalf. All contacts are stored in a Google account. What could be the problem? Perhaps there are third-party programs to accept a call, maybe they will help me. It may need a Root and change system settings. Who can tell.
PS I apologize for my English helped write the message Google translator

When ever I get a text to my Google voice number (I use native Google messaging app) from someone I know, I can see their name but number has changed. Its kinda annoying because it starts a new chat thread. I end up adding that "weird" number to my contacts to make it work properly. Has anyone been able to figure this out or adding server number to contacts is the only way to make it work?
There is no way around this issue, turn off text from Google voice and just text from the voice app.
When using the standard Messaging app and not the Google Voice app, messages are sent by proxy via a "Google Voice Access Number". The GVA number is that weird number you're seeing. You can call that number to connect to your friend's number, and they will see your GV number on the caller ID. As far as I know that access number is semi-permanent... so you can add it to your address book. It may change after several months at which point the call just won't go through.
To avoid this, disable "Receive text messages on this phone" under the Google Voice settings page from your browser and use the Google Voice app.
I just use the GV SMS Integration app. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mdrtools.apps.gvintegration&hl=en
Works flawlessly. No crazy numbers or anything. I just see their names as if I wasn't using Google Voice.
Quick trick

One thing i do to avoid this problem is save the google voice port number to my contacts i usually text the google voice created number or initiate the text via google voice app to avoid this problem.... hope this helped!
Thanks for all the info guys I really appreciate it.
Friends,
I use google voice for text and forwarding to my SGIV phone.
When I forward a text from GV to SGIV phone, the recipients number does not match
my contact list. It displays that the person as a obscure number in no relation to my
phone contacts.
Has anyone experienced this? I did read up with google that this is a problem in their faqs.
Would there be a way around this so my texts match my contact list?
Please advise and Thank You,
tvos
That's normal. Depending on your sms app you may see the contacts name in parentheses. If you call from the sms it'll call the right number.

It's the bridge number that Google voice uses... Annoying but at least with the S4 if you're using GV to make outbound calls the called number appears correctly in the call logs. On the S3 the call logs also showed the bridge number.
Someday maybe they'll fix that as well.
I recently purchased a Z1 Compact and have discovered that when using Google Voice to dial all calls, the wrong number is stored in the call log. This makes it hard to track who I'm calling. From what I've read, this is the number that Voice calls before connecting you to your contact. The way it's worked previously on other phones is that the contact number is stored in the call log and the go-between number is called in the background. This is the proper way and what I'd like to get back to. Does anyone know how to fix this? I'm on 4.4.4. If anyone has Lollipop, has this issue been fixed? The one workaround I've seen is that you should store these numbers in the contact information (as each number is specific to a contact) so that you'll see your contact in the call log, but I'd rather just fix the issue. Ultimately, I believe the issue stems from Sony modifying the stock dialer such that the Voice app doesn't hook in properly to show the contact phone number in the call log. I've seen that some Samsung phone users have the same issue. Please let me know if you have any advice.
Whatever the issue was, it has been fixed in Lollipop.
Is somebody facing some issue with the caller ID when receive a Call?.
When some contact call me its only displays the number, no the contact name, but when i call un register it appears the contact name. Is this related to contact app? Or Google issue? I already deleted data of Contacts app and removed and joined Google and synch.
Somebody can help me with this issue?

First of all, sorry for my english
I'm looking for a way to manage the informations displayed during an incoming call:
I've many contacts numbers related to my work, and sometimes the surname / first name infos displayed by default is not enough to know who is the person calling.
Relevant information could be, in my case, the company infos (saved in the company fields contact sheet).
Is it possible to manage the display of this information ?
When you receive a call from someone not in your contact list, Google sometimes displays the info of this number when it's known, and in this case the name of the company is displayed!
thank you for your help, or your opinion ...

All I have is a work around - I just make the first name line the person's whole name and their last name the company name.
@jp.bond
With tasker and AutoContacts you could create an alert or notification with the relevant information when the phone rings.
If you want the additional alert only when certain contacts call, put them into their own contact group so you can filter the incoming call based on group.
ok it's DIY, but it's better than nothing ... can be a good idea of evolution for Android
