Contacts force closing - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anytime I try to add to or create new contact, the application force closes. Occasionally when trying to call from my call log, it does also. Im rooted running stock 2.3, locked bootloader. Any ideas on what could be wrong or how to fix this?

This would affect my stock gb rom? And why would it just gave begun recently when I've had no problem since sept when I got my phone? No changes have been made except a couple game apps.

What rom are you on? Did you download the ics google+? Its just the most common cause. Happened to me its because google+ interacts with contacts like facebook. If that's not the issue fix permissions in recovery. Last resort reflash

Im stock gb only rooted not unlocked. No flashing of anything on my phone. Have not downloaded google+ I don't social network in any way or form (facebook, twitter) even on computer. Have not downloaded any apps that should interfere with contacts. Any idea who I need to contact about this. This is a major deal if I can't even add new contacts.

Are you freezing any apps via Titanium Backup? I had a similar issue to this and the culprit was freezing Yahoo authenticator I believe

Oh crap. I uninstalled that since I froze it for so long and had no adverse affects. Restoring via tibu hangs if I try. Crap.
EDIT... I didnt uninstall or freeze the yahoo contacts, but the yahoo mail authenticator I did. I don't use yahoo. Is this the culprit?

Yes! Freezing Yahoo Authentication (an also others) cause the Contacts app to crash when editing or adding contacts!
Restore your Authentication apps and have your Contact editing back!

Thank you. Now since tibu wont restore those apps do I have another choice or do I need to reflash? Im not wanting to unlock my bootloader so is there a way to reflash my stock gb rom without unlocking? I appreciate your help.

you can use a gingerbread sbf to flash your phone with RSDlite, but be very careful as the wrong .sbf file can hard brick your phone.
this is the only way to go back to stock if you don't have an unlocked bootloader.

Worked like a charm! And if it wasn't for Link2sd, I would have had to reinstall each app one by one thru tibu! With that, I told it which partition to use, restarted and viola! Everything except widgets was back! I love it! Thank you for all your help.
