Did you ever sort this out? My iPhone 5s shows same generic icon - name is correct though with 'Waynes iPhone'.

If you or anyone else sorts this please let me know as I too have the same problem since upgrading to the iPhone 5S. Name is still correct although the icon is windows generic. My previous iphone 4 diplayed the correct icon including the colour of the phone.

Will do mate. I suspect it's not anything wrong with our windows but lazy programming by apple. Yet another feature (albeit insignificant) forgotten or dropped. I don't suppose they will fix this anytime soon as it will be an extreme low priority. They probably haven't even noticed this. But it does bug me so I will actively seek a fix and nots definetely share it on this thread of it can ever be found


Cheers
