had a mess around and putting four zeroes at the end of one number, and four nines at the end of the other allowed it to recognise as two seperate numbers.
This is a problem discussed in the past and comes from not having a universal standard for the phone numbers and the number of digits returned.
For this the workaround is to only check a certain number of the last digits and match it with a number in the contacts. Obviously this does not work everywhere correctly.
There is somewhere here an explanation of the rules for the matching but don't have the time to find the link. I think that is the problem you are having.
the worst part is, it happens in most Nokia phones. even the old ones. Tried my sisters samsung but it dint have this issue. Funny and strange problem. :P
I just noticed a weird bug that I encountered today. It so turns out that my friend and his father's mobile number are almost the same with the exception of 1 character difference. Example:
Person 1: +96650123456
Person 2: +96655123456
The weird thing is that i have saved one contact (Person1). So when i dial the second number, it brings the name of the first contact (Person1). If i save the second number (Person2) in the Phonebook, it turns out to just show the number while calling. The log shows proper Information.
Can someone please help confirm this? Is it just me or is this really somethin that everyone is facing and it went unnoticed?
I'm using PR 1.3 with CSSU. Phonebook is in sync with Exchange Contacts. Checked for duplicates etc but dint find anythin. Problem can be replicated with doing the same for other contacts also.
Kindly Advise and Assist. If it is a common problem, we may need to file it.
