[Q] Plus sign before phone number on incoming calls?

[cgb231]

Hi! So I've been having a bit of trouble with my Note II. I had a few custom roms on it before, and I unlocked the bootloader, but when I put the device back to stock ROM via Odin, a plus sign (+) now appears in front of any phone number with incoming calls, and it prevents me from being able to call a person back through the recent call log, as it will attempt to use Assisted Dialing (the number will appear like this: +9545555555). Has anyone else had this problem, or can someone tell me how to fix this? Even when I switch back to custom ROMs the problem still persists now. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

Also, I am using the phone with a GSM carrier if that's important information.

This is a problem because you are not using the proper handset. the + stands for the international. code used to call other countries. TO fix this you either need to buy a note 2 made for your carrier ( ie, verizon) or find a custom rom ported from your carrier.

Flashed a ported AT&T ROM and it worked perfectly! Thank you!
