Haha tried but cant

Nvm la

Just find the contacts and remove +65

Oh dear, sounds very inconvenient. Any others here using SD sets experiencing the same issue?
I was keen to get a SD set but seems that there are these issues. :(

China, Taiwan and HK have been getting the Snapdragon variant for sometime. So far I've been buying these variants from S10 Plus (bought from HK retail), Note 10 Plus (Taiwan) and S20 Ultra (TW). The last 2 sets I bought from Lazada.

For Korea I believe they only switched to SD from the S20 series.

Can I check if you have issue with the caller ID as what the korean set users are experiencing when using it in Singapore?

Yes bro, I replied your PM too.

I posted this issue before when I bought my Note 10+ TW set.

The caller ID problem exists on the Korean and Taiwan models. However my friend who has the Hong Kong model informed me that it is fine for his S20U.

Since both my models are TW, the work around is to add another version of the number in another field of the contacts. Then it works fine.

For example I have Joe Harris +65 98765432 under mobile and 98765432 under Fax or any other type like Home etc of the same contact. Then it will always work, even when you're overseas it will use the +65 98765432 because 98765432 doesn't work overseas without the country code.

With this workaround, no issues.

update got fix exynos hot hot?

Nope, not fixed. So is the subpar battery life.

Even simple web browsing the phone will warm up. Don't even talk about gaming. That's why so many videos on YouTube showing the phone shuttering and struggling with popular games like Mobile legends or Fornight.
