Incoming call numbers in national format aren't matched to contacts saved in international format
Hi template, hi people, wish you a nice morning.
This is more a missing feature than a bug but Github didn't offer not using the template.
- Describe the bug (mandatory)
I use Linphone from F-Droid with a SIP Account. Not a Belledonne Comms Account.
When someone calls me, the provider sends the origin number, if from the same country as 0
- To Reproduce (mandatory)
Save a contact in international fornat through Android Contacts. In the normal phone number field. Not the SIP field. I do not want to save a number in different formats redundantly because that messes up other contact provider users data interpretation. Use any SIP to Phone carrier with behaviour described above and get called by the saved contact.
- Expected behavior (mandatory)
Linphobe, knowing which country code it is in, should match local format incoming numbers. (It autodetected my country prefix from android region settings just fine.)
- Please complete the following information (mandatory)
- Device: Pixel
- OS: Android 14
- Linphone Android 5.1.4 (tags/5.1.4^0, release)
- Linphone SDK 5.2.99 (tags/5.2.99^0, release)
- Where you did got it from: F-Droid
- Graphene
- SDK logs (mandatory)
Not applicable because its not an error but a missing feature.
- Adb logcat logs (mandatory if native crash)
Not a crash.
- Screenshots (optionnal)
Not.
- Additional context (optionnal)
Not.
Hi @schichtnudelauflauf,
Can you check your account settings and make sure the prefix has been correctly set?
This isn't a missing feature it is supposed to work. I just tried with my device and it works fine for my test case.
Cheers,
I just checked again before filing that bug. The incoming numbers in call log are in the format "sip:0<area><number>@gatewayservice.whatever". The contacts are "+49<areacode><number>" in the number field of my synced contact provider. The set prefix in account settings is "49" without + as told in the string below that field.
On Android there is no button to get the logs myself. Only a field where I can send it to some server. I won't send raw debug data to you without censoring it. How can I fetch that locally? The wiki says I can do "Send logs" in "About", but there is no such thing. There is "Send logs"in Settings > Advanced but that tries to send to that log server. I tried tapping version strings repeatedly like other debug screens are hidden in the Android world but nothing there. I don't have a computer near me that I trust enough to fetch adb logcat with.
If you don't want to use adb logcat nor use our log upload feature that will be hard for you to get the logs...
Please do not interpret the following in an insulting way. I am very grateful that this thing exists and you and your org took the effort to create it without me paying anything for it.
As I am in the dilemma, that Linphone seems to be the only working open SIP app for Android at all and its one of the worst UX apps that exists and I need an open SIP client... I might soon send you code for an export-to share button. Are you open for suggestions for a bigger UX overhaul and according PRs?
Do you have any docs about what the log sender speaks so that I can spin up my own logserver?
You'll be happy to know we are working on a new UX/UI that is scheduled to be ready and published at the end of June, 2024. It has been designed with the help of a specialized UX company, and the first tests with users are great!
Cool stuff, are there beta builds available outside of Playstore?
I got home to my PC to get logcats.
Maybe noteworthy things:
- It sees the contacts and has contact permission.
- It does not have read phone state permission.
- The SIP "From:" line has format:
From: "011111111111" <sip:[email protected]>;tag=someid - I use a secondary user profile.
- In the line about setting the display name, there is no time-related other context.
- Neither around the "Contact:" lines in call timeframes.
- I set adb loglevel to '*:D'.
- I activated debug logging in Linphone.
- I got many "D" log lines but most were about the main loop state.
- I saw no details about the contact or display name wrangling in the full logfile. I read every single line.
Logstuff related to contacts containing private data:
I Linphone: Contact: <sip:011111111111@mysipipaddress:mysipport>
I Linphone: New incoming call from ["011111111111" <sip:[email protected]>] to [sip:[email protected]]
I Linphone: Updating sip address display name in database: `sip:[email protected]`.
E Linphone: Unable to retrieve contact address from proxy confguration for call session 0xd91069255b78 (local address sip:[email protected] remote address "011111111111" <sip:[email protected]>).
I Linphone: [Notifications Manager] No conference info found for remote contact address sip:011111111111@mysipipaddress:mysipport
I Linphone: Removing the call (local address sip:[email protected] remote address "011111111111" <sip:[email protected]>) from the list attached to the core
Other logstuff that does not contain any data. (I removed device info that isn't related, network, crypto, cam, audiostuff). I left in other Linphone setup stuff and some environment related errors. None of those errors look related to the contact provider or contact string conversion.

Problem/bug alike: incoming calls (in app under account settings there is just switch for outgoing calls and chats) by contacts saved without international prefix are not recognized/matched, when local prefix - where place for only one (for just one country code) is reserved and useful just for outgoing calls (probability that identical 8 digit number calls from other jurisdiction is almost zero) - is not entered. Most phone apps recognize incoming CID# without specifying intl country code (matching last X digits of incoming number). Looks like apps general problem: too strict rules for matching contact (address-book) data with incoming call data (willing 100% or ideal match). P.S. I have not met any dialer app asking to enter country cod/prefix prefix to receive (or even make) calls - it is done more intuitively. Moreover this is "Contacts" issue, but the place to enter "prefix for your only one country in this globalized world" in Linphone app is not located under "Contacts" section, but under account general settings.

Can you add me to the testers?
6.0.0 alpha is now available in master branch (public beta is pending validation from Google).

We will get it soon on F-Droid too?
Hi @G10h4ck,
No, it won't be soon on F-Droid as they only package releases and this is a beta. Release is currently scheduled for September.
Cheers,
