maybe the problem isn't tokenization-related, but you're trying to
search for a substring of the phone number not beginning at the first
character ?

example:
if your indexed value is '123-45-55555',
a search for '123*' or '123-45*' should find the record, but a search
for '45*' won't. Is this the behaviour you experience ?

Wildcards at the beginning, as in '*45*', don't always work. There
currently is another thread about this topic, it's unclear if this is
supposed to work or not atm, hope Dave can shed some light on this).

To be able to search only for area code or phone number, you should
tokenize the phone number into parts (split at the hyphens).
