Contact telephone number format keeps changing to a format I don't want

's Computer Specifications

I want my telephone numbers in this format:
+II-AA-NNN-NNNN
where II is the international country code, AA is the area code and
NNN-NNNN is the telephone number.
When I edit a contact number it changes my format from
+II-AA-NNN-NNNN to +II (AA) NNN-NNNN

No matter what I do, I can't get rid of the parenthesis and the "-"
symbol gets deleted around the area code number.
Ideas on how to keep it the way I like it?

Masking of phone numbers is hard coded. You can't configure it.
