Two things have changed on my phone recently.
1. I ran the latest update 4.3.2
2. My phone was not showing all the contacts in my address book that is in my Mobile Me account. Mobile me had 166 contacts. The iPhone 4 had 136. I I unchecked the syncing of my contacts on my phone. This removed all the contacts from my phone. Then I check the syncing options again. All 166 appeared on the phone.
I'm not sure which of the two caused the issue but now anytime someone who calls their name does not appear on the display or log, just their number. I can even call people from my address book and the display shows that I am calling them with their name and photo on display. However, in the call log the name does not show just their number. This applies for text messages. I send a message directly from within the contact card in the address book and in my text log it shows only the number and not the name.
I've turned the phone off and on a couple of times.
I would appreciate any advice.
Cheers
Yes I just upgraded my iphone4 to firmware 4.3.2 today and this issue started happening to me as well. I read some suggestion to store both the international and the local formats of the number which did solve the problem but am I supposed to do that for all my contacts? This is very silly. I hope someone advises for a better resolution or confirm if this is a 4.3.2 bug that will be resolved in an upcoming update.

Thanks iraghib,
In the end I reset my phone to factory settings. I created a back up of my address book and ical. Reset the phone and did a sync again. This fixed it all. I didn't need to use the backups but is was nice to know they were there. I felt entering the various passwords for all my installed apps was a much better deal than adding the international area code to the 166 contacts I have in my address book.
Good luck. And thanks for the post.
