This may not be strictly Note 2 related, but this is my first Android based phone and I can't seem to figure it out.
Every text message shows the phone number as +1 777-777-7777. This is not my preferred phone number numbering system. I prefer (777) 777-7777. I have all of my contacts set up this way for this exact reason. Somebody suggested it may be a Facebook contact related issue, but I do not have Facebook contacts synced with the phone. All of the contact information is reading off of gmail contacts and is listed there in my preferred numbering system. Even the contacts on the phone show it as (777) 777-7777. So why does it keep changing it back to the other way? It is increasingly frustrating and for all of the things that Android does right over iOS, it seems that iOS has won this battle as it keeps everything nice and tidy when it comes to contacts.
