Hi
I posted this to the Android list, but I don't think anybody reads it...
Anyway, I got an update to Android 6.0 on my Moto X. I was really looking
forward to this, but it seems that something is broken with the caller ID.
After going through a few forums it turns out that there is some
discrepancy between how the numbers are stored in Contacts (only local area
codes) and how the Phone app is searching for numbers (with an
international dialing code +972). It could be that the service provider
(Golan, in my case) is contributing to this confusion.
There are a few workarounds, including creating duplicate copies of all
numbers with/without international number, deleting and restoring all
contacts and rewriting all contacts.
None of those appeal to me, for the simple reason that they are only
workarounds and don't provide a solution to the underlying problem.
Had anybody encountered this problem? Has this issue been raised to Golan?
Google? Does anybody know of a solution?
