All my contacts are synced and after I accpet the phone call in a list of calls it is displayed properly, but when the call is performed I do not see who is calling which is very disorienting since I do not understand who is calling and should I pick up or not.Please help

    Call Log display help

    Hi. The Call Log, if the contact is on my contact list, displays the Contact Name and below the Country/City instead of the Phone Number that was used to call me or the one i called. If the contact is not in my Contact List, it displays the Contact Number and below the Country/City.
    Is there any way to change the setting in the first situation to display the Contact Name and below the Phone Number used? I prefer a solution without the use of a third party app. Phone is on android 7 / Emui 5.0.1 and the build is BLN-L21C432B365.
    Thank you.

    Your Phone app on PC does not show the name of contact that is calling

    Call history sometimes shows name and sometimes show number.

    Thats odd. In the history on phone, it always shows the name and always shows the names on the called ID. Does that contact have more than one phone number associated to them in your contacts list?

    As you have tried soft reset already, I can only suggest trying a hard reset or try use another WP8 device to see if the issue is reproduced.
