iOS 14: Wrong Caller ID on Incoming Call

Hello all that are confused.

This is not the first iOS 14 glitch I’ve seen on these pages. I’ve seen that caller ID will say “United States” instead of something like “Morganton GA“. Please all report the bug at https://www.apple.com/feedback/

This thing is pretty random to me, but, I tried the proposed solution to DISABLE / RE-ENABLE show my caller ID (which makes no sense to me) and I have not experienced the issue in 2 days now. I will continue monitoring and report back here :)

I am also seeing this issue. Hope they fix it soon

If you restart your phone it will fix it temporarily, until an update is released with a more durable fix.

hey

i found the solution which i post it last time.

go resetting your network setting which means your will need to delete the wifi information on you cell phone. then problem solved.

I reset the network setting

Try to reset the network resetting.

Settings/ General/ reset/ reset netowrk setting.

the worse thing is that Apple yet to give any response about this issues.

Hi , after updating to iOS14.2, everything is fine so far... just try it.

Restarting the phone helps in my case but the problem reappears a couple of hours/days later. Last time took 2 days to reappear and I embarrass myself while greeting a friend who end up being a customer :(

This is the message I received from WhatsApp regarding the issue..

Hi,

Thanks for your message. 

Sorry for the inconvenience. We are aware of the issue and we are working on fixing it in a future update of WhatsApp. Unfortunately, we can't comment on any future release dates at this time.

Hi Dear,

it is very hard to simulate the issue and i not getting the issue while i try to replicate the issue to the apple consultant who called me for support after raising a case, but my bad luck after a hour i called one of my friend thru 3rd party call app (Botim) and the next call showed my previous contact number , i m trying to find the logic behind this , sometimes same combination brings me the issue and sometimes not.

one thing i have updated to 14.2 now it is stable so far past 2 days no problem occurred and caller id issues seems addressed.

i will not conclude anything as of now i will keep monitoring for the whole week , i will update this forum and eagerly waiting to share my results in a couple of days.

As the post suggested , I restarted my phone. It’s been only 2 hours since. I’m yet to experience any glitches and if I do I will put up an update. Hoping that I don’t :)

You just posted to a 6 page long discussion of this issue. The most useful answer is to go and read what others have done as workarounds for this bug.

I do have the same problem since 14.0 update.

I reported the issue to https://www.apple.com/feedback/

Everyone should do the same, because this is the only way to make Apple speed up for the fix !

The only solution is to write to https://www.apple.com/feedback/ in order to speed up the fixing update.
