Hi,
I encounter strange problem while receiving calls. When one of my contacts calls me I get notification with correct data (name, number) but than in call log I see wrong number - my contact number with my number "glued" at the end (so no correct name etc..)
I tried several ROMS based on Pixel and it happens to me on all.
Any suggestions?

Hi, after upgrading my Rhodium to http://www.htc.com/uk/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=629&news_id=219 all incoming calls are unknown, even the ones the have Called ID disabled. I have checked many of my contacts and they all say they do not have it blocked.
Bit lost here. Any ideas?
Had the same problem on my TP2.
After some randomly trying, i figured out how to solve it, it's pretty easy (at least for me...)
I just had to change all my phonenumbers starting with a 0 to +49 (Germany in my case, so you have to change it to your country then...)
For example:
0151xxxxxxxxxx
to
+49151xxxxxxxxxx
That does the trick, and there should be no more unknown callers
Hopefully helped you out
I had a similar problem
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=548420
My TP2 would recognise my contacts if I wanted to send a sms / make a call but nothing incoming.
The solution I found that worked for me was to go to each contact - edit - do nothing - done.
After that it now works fine, although going through over 300 contacts like that almost sent me insane
I'd try on one first before going to all that effort
I once had the problem with contacts being saved wrongly. I used to have all contacts as:
+31..... (europe - the netherlands ... phone number)
but I had to change that into:
0031....
For some reason the + wasn't recognized well.
Oh my god...1000 contacts or so, all +31 :-( Stupid HTC
Thanks guys ...
Before you start editing hundreds of numbers:

I had to change to 6 numbers for the really short numbers.
Most of my numbers are informat +countrycode_operatorcode_phonenumber (without the underscorse, of course).
problem wid htc wildfire
all incoming calls on my htc wildfire are being shown as "unknown". even the saved contacts. i'm a mess...even tried restarting the phone but nothing works. please help(m from india)
when i go to my call history, 95% of my calls, made or received, come up as unknown! it is pissing me off. all the numbers that are showing up as unkown are number that are stored in my contacts. when the call is made or received the name and picture show up. but a couple of days later it is switched and is shown as a unknown caller! i heard it may have something to do with active sync,, but iam not sure of that. on all my other wm devices this has never happened.
please give me some feed back
anybody else notice this?
sorry, don't have an answer but same problem here.
i second the pissing of the offness.
my unknowns seem to be happening for no reason at all as well.
Unknown numbers can be down to three factors (also on many other WinMo devices).
1, You have the same number duplicated in Contacts under different spelling causing a search error.
2, You have synced Outlook with another software (ie. Nokia or Samsung) that causes slight changes in the Outlook Database. (This can also cause "+" to be omitted from numbers when synced.
3, Not using the latest Activesync software in XP.
Solution I found is to erase all contacts in Outlook (they will remain in the deleted items folder for restore so if all fails you can transfer them back). Edit items in the phone so all are tidy with no duplicates. Then resync.
It's none of those things for me. It just says unkown during the call. If I click View Contact, it'll go to the correct contact in the address book.

Its None of those for me as well. I just noticed this and yes the contacts are stored in my phone correctly. Hope someone comes up with a solution soon. The call history feature is effectively useless this way... except of course, you have a super brain and can remember all your numbers!
iam the original poster of this problem and also for me these aren't the problems, i try it out and still the same thing, contacts are stored, but still shown unknown number in the call history, that is located in the home tab of touch flo
I've noticed that when my phone is ringing, caller ID works fine and displays the person's name and contact picture. But as soon as I answer the call, it sometimes says "unknown" (though I just received a call and it displayed properly).
I synced my contacts with my exchange server via direct push, not Activesync. And I don't have any dupes.
It just seems like caller ID is a bit on the wonky side...
I also checked dupes and other things.
It can't figure out the pattern.
I called someone today who's phone number I know is in another contact record but it showed the correct call.
Then sometimes I get the "unknown".

This is exactly what I see on my tilt2 as well. I can see who is calling, I answer, and then when I pull the phone away from my ear to hit the end call button it says "unknown caller". The caller information DOES show up in my call history, so the only time I am seeing this problem is during the call.
Hi everyone,
I just bought a P6 and directly upgraded to B506 (so, for the comments that follow, I have no prior status to compare against).
What I noticed is that for all incoming calls, only the phone number is shown and not the caller id. For example, I created a contact 'John Doe' for my home phone number and placed a call. Phone number shows up, 'John Doe' does not. Same behavior when I replaced my home phone number (fixed line number) with my wife's mobile phone number.
Furthermore, when I checked the Dialer for the 'missed' call, same story: it shows the number, not the caller id.
At first, I thought that this behavior is attributed to my mobile Telco provider. Then, I downloaded and used a dialer from Play Store (Swipe Dialer Pro). Swipe Dialer's list of recent calls does show the caller id !
So, has anyone else experienced that ? Any clues on what might be causing this behavior on the stock dialer and how it can be resolved ?
Thanks in advance for your help,
Kostas
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.
When VoLTE (and VoWiFi probably) is on on my RN8T every incoming call in the call log have my own number "glued" to end of incoming number (also in notification, eg. of missed call) - so I don't know who was calling.
While incoming call is in progress the identification shows correct ID from my contacts but after the call is over the number contains my own number at the end in call log so there is no correct ID from contacts.
I tried a few A10 roms and it happens to me on everyone.
Can anyone confirm this or have idea how to fix this?
Have you figured it out?
Have the same problem with 9T
