My phone does this when it hangs up and it hard to get to the hang up, when on phone lol...

And it says private number, when I have no. and when pulling up phone, it displays the number.

Why? And how to get rid of that?

Or do I need to download a different phone?

That's due to some 3rd party app you installed -- I'm guessing that it will also give you popup ads as well. Did you install a 3rd party dialer app, or some kind of 3rd party caller ID app?
My old phone was transferred. I didn't install it.
No idea how to get rid of it.
 
Bring up your app list, and look for "Phone" or "Dialer." Do you have more than one app with either name installed?

Also, see if there are any apps that sound like a call screening app, like TruCaller.

And since there's a calculator icon associated with that banner, look for any 3rd party Calculator apps. If you find any, uninstall them.
 
I have this:

OK, I did an association with calculator and phone, when in calculator settings.
I shut it off.

Hopefully that helps.

Too early to call anyone, for me to see
