Does anybody know how to disable the +1 part of a phone number? ie: +1-972-555-5555??

Over the Holiday, I received a few texts from people and had to respond with "Who is this, so I can add you in my new phone." When they were already added in, but without the +1 added on. Not to mention, if I call a number of +1-972-555-5555, the call will not go through. This is a major annoyance and I want to cancel it yesterday!

you want to cancel what yesterday? and i'm not sure why your phone does a +1, it should only be 1-xxx-xxx-xxxx in which case it would dial perfectly fine with callerID tags and everything. Are you in ze US of A?
