The customer reported to us a problem with contact SMS which is not displayed on the personal side (only the numbers are displayed but not the names of the contacts)

The customer reported an issue to us: on the personal part of his phones, business contacts are no longer displayed across his entire fleet when users receive SMS from business and personal contacts (only numbers appear, without contact names).

By default, Samsung phones use the rich Google Messages application, as well as Textra, which are both impacted. This issue does not occur with Samsung's SMS application. We have tested on our side (Orange), and business contacts and numbers are displayed on the personal part. We have also tested with the customer, but it works randomly.

Please take the necessary action.

      Hi Lizzie 

       

      sounds good, thank you.

       

      Do you have a version number for the fix?

       

      My Pixel 8 Pro is currently on "messages.android_20250304_00_RC01.phone.openbeta_dynamic" updated 07th March.

       

      Have to check my test devices for a stable release version name to compare...

       

      Br,

    I applied the update last night and it worked immediately.  Fingers crossed it stays.  Thank you for the update!
