"Hi,

If all your i/c calls are showing as unknown, contact your service provider and ask if there is a problem with your account (service?) as it may not be a problem in your phone.

If they say that there is no problem at their end and you have to do a reset do the following before you perform the reset.

Backup your phone using the phone's backup feature.

Fully charge the battery in the phone.

Reset using the phone's factory restore feature.

Once reset, check that you receive the number OK on an i/c call.

If so, restore the phone using the phone's restore feature.

Once restored, check to see if the i/c call number display is still working OK."

"You didn't describe your problem clearly and completely but I understood your problem. I had the same issue and was able to resolve it. If you also want to resolve it then go to the setting/application manager. Search for the phone on this list and click on it. After clicking select the clear data button.

If your problem is not resolved by these steps then I would suggest you to go through the reverse phone lookup services. With the help of this services, you can easily get all the details of the unknown caller. If you want to know more about this then just take a look at Asia missed call. Here you will know more steps to resolve this issue."

If it’s not a problem with the phone, it could very well be trolls using *67 to cloak their number

Solved the problem. Local numbers show contact details perfectly. Any number which has an IDD country code prefixed shows only the number.

Hi dear … I had the same issue .. and resolved it in this way …. Go the assigned account (the email you have chosen) open the settings in the email ….click on (contacts ) …then the system will ask you to down load contacts …download it and it will work …but you have to down load it from the e-mailed itself

Easy. Don't use Samsung S8 anymore. Non of this help me. Backup? Caller protect? None of it help. Buy new phone. That will help.
