Hello guys, i finally update my phone with neat rom and install the cf-root lp8 without problems and everything works ok.
the only problem is that when i try to use the phone, after i tip one number my phone crashes and says "Unfortunately, Contacts has stopped" and a few seconds later it says that TwLauncher is not responding.
I went to google sync and disable the contacts sync, rebooted but nothing changes, it keeps giving me that error. Is there a way to fix it without restoring to factory settings or something like that?
better ask in the neat rom thread.......and try factory wipe.
Hello,
did you restored your contacts with Titanium or other after flashing the new ROM? could you give us a little more info on it?
Ciao
thanks for the answers!
i cant post on the topic, i dont have enough posts
No, i didnt restore the contacts, i just install the cf-root lp8 and afterwards i install the rom, i have to use titanium now to restore the contacts?
OP reads more like a bad flash wipe and reflash .
TB only backs up contacts if asked to .
jje
I can call my contacts without a problem, what i cant do is type a number using the phone, once i put one number it crashes, thats the strange thing
Could you try a reflash?
I'm in the same boat, my problem start after i use DarkyOTA visualmod dialer.
I dunno how to rollback and uninstall that :-(
any help.
I'm looking for a clear and step by step how to flash ICS 4.0.4 to my i9100m Bell SGS2, if any link can be paste here ?
thank's
I just sent and pm to salesale and he gave me the answer in 1 minute:
settings/applications/all and clear data in Contacts storage and Contacts
Now it works perfect!
Same issue
I'm running Pure ICS v7.3 and I've ended up having this issue twice now.
I'm not sure if this is related to the ROM itself. Different users with using different ROMs seem to be having this same issue so I'll continue this thread before asking elsewhere.
I can mention that I have read the full thread for Pure ICS without finding anything that seems related to my issue.
Background:
Phone: SGSII
Android version: 4.0.3
Kernel: [email protected] #3
What I've done:
Since I got this issue first time I wiped data, restored to factory, wiped Dalvik, cache, reseted permissions, reinstalled the ROM. Probably wiped data and cache after install as well (don't know if that matters).
After doing all this everything worked fine, just as it did after first install.
The issue appears after a couple of days.
Issue:
Starting dialer crashes Contacts prompting: "Unfortunately, Contacts has stopped".
This time around I've tried to uncheck sync with Contacts with Google account, restarted phone, rechecked - Still same issue.
Tried going Settings --> Applications --> All
Then I wiped data for Contacts and Contacts Storage.
Still same issue.
Tried doing the uncheck --> check thingie with Google account again. Still no success.
I've been doing this in various combinations and I'm not able to stop the Dialer from crashing.
Contacts works just fine otherwise.
Last thing I will mention is that I have an app called HaxSync which also interacts with contacts. I've both tried to unchech sync for that app and the first time around (before wipe) I tried uninstalling that app. No success there either.
The wierd thing is that everything is working like a charm. A couple of days goes by without me installing anything, not doing any settings change or anything.
Then this error reoccours.
Sorry for the long story but I wanted to give as specific details as possible.
One more thingie!
I just remembered that I've used SMS Backup & Restore to restore my messages each time I've installed this ROM. I don't know if this is relevant but I thought I'd mention it.
I am running Spike pure ICS too and the contacts app crashes every time I try to delete a contact. The contact gets deleted but the app hangs for a bit and then crashes. I am not sure if it is related, I am not using the dialer much. But the contacts app is definitely not working correctly.

Try the same thing that the OP did, go to Settings > Applications > All > Clear data in Contacts and Contacts Storage. I had this issue a while ago, trying to delete a duplicate contact and the Contacts.app would freeze and then crash. Updated a while ago to latest HydrogenICS and no problems?

"Unfortunately, Contacts has stopped"
Go to Settings > Applications > All > Clear data in Contacts and Contacts Storage.
It worked for me!
SGS2 ICS4.0
Thank you!

Remember to backup the local contacts.
Unfortunately, this did not help me. The contacts app still crashes. It is either connected to the rom or to duplicate contacts from WhatsApp. It didn't happen with an older version of Spike pure ICS but I didn't have WhatsApp at the time either. I guess I just have to wait until a new version of the rom comes out.

Clearing Contacts and Contacts Storage solved the issue at first.
The issue reoccurs if I reject a call. Then it's back to crashing as soon as I open the dialer.
I'm not running WhatsApp and never had it installed.
Still can't use dialer.
Issue solved.
Yesterday I upgraded to Spikes Pure ICS 7.5 and the issue was resolved.
My dialer do no longer crash and I can reject calls without the issue reappearing.
I don't know what has changed since version 7.3 but I'm just glad it's solved

Hi mates!
Could anyone assist. I've installed Hydяa-H²o v1.4.1 and it's good. But it's Contacts making me mad - there in no option to show only contacts with numbers and thanks to google I have many emails listed. Moreover I badly need to restore my call log (with My backup root) after restore Contacts crasher once I launch it.
How can I swith hydras contacts.apk by Sams original one?
Also who knows how to set stock samsungs lockscreen instead installed in this ROM?
Delete all accounts under accounts and sync. Reboot then add your accounts and sync them back.

Hoping someone can help me out. For the past couple of weeks, I haven't been able to send emails out using the Gmail app. I can compose, attach, save....but when I go to hit the send button, or choose send from the menu, the button grays out instantly and nothing sends. Doesn't even go to the outbox.
I've read around the forums for the TB and other devices having the same issues and tried all of the tips. I've wiped app data, app cache, uninstalled all updates, uninstalled the .apk, reinstalled from the market. None of those potential solutions have worked for me . Sync works fine.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
EDIT: it's happened on multiple roms, so I know that isn't the issue.
Thank God!
Sorry...I am just happy I am not the only person dealing with this.
I am experiencing the EXACT same thing. I was just about to post everything you did...plus
I cleared all drafts from GMail. I cleared all sent mail from Gmail. I have tried unistalling and reinstalling gmail. I have tried serveral different methods for restoring everything....
- skipping setup and turning off auto-restore and auto sync restoring everything with TiBu
- skipping setup and turning off auto-restore and auto sync restoring everything with MyBuPro
- skipping setup and turning off auto-restore. Signing in to google letting sync complete including apps. Then waiting 15 mins...rebooting and manually restoring only my missing user apps via TiBu.
- loaded the 2.11.605.3 rooted and deodexed but otherwise stock RUU posted in the deveopment forum and still it happened after restoring all my apps.
Everytime...I think I have it beat...but within a day...NOPE! No sending again.
At first I thought it was restoring the apps...BUT
What is F'n strange is that it does not break as soon as the restore is finished. In fact I make sure to email myself at another email address each step of the way to make sure if I can identify where I am going wrong. Each time everything is fine at first.
It is usually between a few hours and a day when Gmail stops working.
This last time I noticed that the gmail app updates itself when I am done...even if I make sure not to in my restore. But I immediately sent myself an email to that address and it worked. Then several hours later...it was broken again.
Not sure if this is related...but I noticed that gmail duplicates that address in the drop down after it breaks. What I mean is that when I type the first few letters of my name....all my emails show up....but each only once. But after it breaks ... the email I sent the tests too shows up in that list twice.
This is the most maddening thing I have ever dealt with in my 3 years of owning some rooted droid or another.
I am tempted to just unroot and restore to stock...and pray that it goes away and does not plague me ever again after 11.11.11
Return to stock and see if the problem persists. If it does call up verizon, explain to them what is happening, may be a problem with the phone, not sure how, but just maybe.
I assume this is the best way?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1009423
So I tried wiping and loading a fresh install...and only reinstalled a few of the most vital and used apps.
Have had no problem for 3 days. So clearly it was a bad app causing this. I will experiment this weekend to see if I can figure out which one.
I've had this problem come and go, but telling Titanium Backup to wipe the data for the GMail app always fixes the issue for me.
Can you wipe data of primary gmail address? What happens then - does it take you to the startup screen to sign into gmail from scratch?

It just does it for the whole app... So basically all 4 of my GMail accounts had no messages on the phone until the app successfully synced with GMail. Sending normally works fine after that.
I'll try that next time. Thanks
First of all i'm just hoping like hell i've posted this in the right section, if I haven't i sincerely apologize and would ask instead that someone may tell me the correct section to post this
Otherwise
I have a problem when sending or receiving a text from my partner in the conversations list it displays a contact name of "Me" instead if her name, yet when i call her (even directly from the messaging app) it will come up with the correct name in the dialer, If i do not have her saved as a contact it will just display her number but as soon as i save her into my contacts no matter what name i put it will automatically revert back to displaying "Me" and she is the only contact this happens with, every single other contact displays there correct name, this is beginning to become quite frustrating for me as i have run out of things to try to fix the issue,
So far i have tried:
Using the search button :good:
When i found nothing on XDA i turned to Google instead and found nothing
3rd party messaging apps
Deleting all my contacts from my SIM, My phone and Google then re-entering them all manually
Replacing the SIM card with a brand new one
Doing a full wipe of data, system, caches then re-flashing the ROM and setting up a new Google account, again manually typing all contacts
Doing more full wipes and flashing different ROMs
Completely formatting my internal SD card
and finally, flashing a Stock ROM via odin
But sadly none of this has fixed the problem
Im hoping that someone else has had this issue and has found a fix, if so your help would be so greatly appreciated
Solution:
1. Try another messaging app, i recommend go sms, it should solve the problem.
2. Wipe all contacts on your SIM, don't re-enter her contract to the SIM manually, just use Google contacts sync only
3.If you are rooted, backup your present ROM and flash the any Aosp or aokp ROM

Thank you very much for your reply
Unfortunately i have tried all of these things, I have used Go SMS, Hansent and ICS Messaging
Currently I have no contacts saved to my phone or my SIM, all are synced directly from my new google account
and i have tried many different ROMs including many versions of Paranoid (on which the issue started) versions 1 through to 1.9, Resurection remix, Pure CM9 and 10, Checkrom V6 and V7, Omega V15, Wanam 12.3 and finnally what ive settled on AllianceRom v3
and sadly none of this has worked either

Hm.. Maybe it's different on ICS, if you're on it.
I'm on Gingerbread. In Contacts, I can press Menu > My Profile. This displays a phone number and email address.

I asked him before about the same and I'm waiting for response. But if you saw my post, then you shouldn't copy somebody's ideas (in this case mine).
Unfortunately i have yes
Ive tried doing a full wipe install with a few ROMs and putting contacts on my phone memory only with no sync to Google, ive tried then doing a fresh install and having them on my SIM only (on my old one, my new SIM has never had my contacts saved to it, only service numbers) and currently all my contacts are synced directly from my new Google account, not saved on phone memory or SIM at all
Hi!
I have this really annoying "bug" where every single contact us duplicated several times(most contacts have 5 duplicates!).
I could batch delete the duplicates, but the problem is they would probably duplicate again and again...
So, what exactly causes this problem?
Just for the record, my father has this problem too(stock S2). I'm currently running MIUI but the problem seems to not be related to the rom.
Cheers guys, thanks.

The Problem can be because you have configured multiple accounts with your Phone and each one of these has the contact data.
Try this and let me know if it worked.
Go to Contacts > Menu > Contacts to Display
Here select the accounts, the contacts of which you want to be displayed.
A more polished way would be to create an Excel Spreadsheet of all your contacts and then upload it with a name in Gmail. You can then enable only this list contacts to be displayed in the Contacts application.
In case it's not a displaying problem - I use Wondershare MobileGo for Android.
Intall the free version, connect your phone to the computer, open the program and under "contacts" tab there is a "De-duplicate" button. It will help you merge duplicated contacs.
There is a workaround for this problem. You can use Go Backup to take a backup of all your existing contacts.. there is an option to merge duplicate contacts as well.. after taking backup delete all your contacts from mobile; sync to server and then restore your contacts..

Thank you every one for help! However,I found the best solution to be Contact Remover Plus app(paid). It took five minutes to delete all duplicates.
Anyway, thanks guys, some good info here!

That suggestion about dealing with multiple Google account on your phone is good. Works for me. First, I delete the duplicate contacts on my Android phone and then extract them as Excel files. Finally, the data are uploaded to Gmail. Problem solved. Thank you so much.
Hi,
I installed CM 11 M7 recently and i noticed one thing. When i reboot the phone, Some of my contacts disappear from the list.
Say suppose i have 300 contacts; after rebooting the phone there will be 230 contacts.
Then i have to load the latest .vcf file from storage to get updated contacts.
Any possible reason for this? and also Any working solution?
thanks

I suggest you to keep your contacts on sim card so you can't lose them. I have both CM and google accounts so everytime I install a new version of CM, automatically I find my contacts directly set. But I don't really know wich one saves them

That's a good idea. SIM. but the only problem in saving it in sim is that you can't store multiple numbers under one contact and you can't use big names. that's why i prefer phone. i do a back up of that and keep the .vcf file.
All my contacts are synchronized with google account, i have no problems and all contacts are there after flashing
Well.. i guess we need to sync the contacts (people) with google account. After that it does not loose some.
I synced the contacts with google account and now its working good after rebooting.
The same thing happened to me 3 to 4 months ago, after doing some experiments, I came to know that this happens when I restore my contacts from a app or a .vcf file. So I just synced all the contacts with google. So now when ever I update or flash a new ROM, all the contacts get synced when I finish the Setup Wizard thingy.

I am using CM11 custom ROM on my mobile.Few days it worked fine but after that came to know that contacts are getting disappeared completely after reboot and I need to restore again from storage and it keeps on happening for me.
Actually when I am doing contact import from storage,I am getting pop window saying Trebuschet not responding.I could see initially in the import contact process it is trying to import the contacts to cache and then may be to actual location.
Is that contacts remaining in cache itself which is causing to disappear after reboot?
Also found that not every reboot causing this problem only sometimes.
Please let me know how to resolve and I don't want to restore my contacts from sim.

Update your rom.
I have a SM-G9250, never rooted is factory stock with Android 5.1.1, which had been working with no trouble at all, however, this morning the contacts app started doing something funny,
I tried openning a contact and the app read: "Unfortunately, Contacts has stopped" and it shuts.
It only happens with a few contacts, not all will close the app, don't know how to fix, I have restarted several times, and did a back up and restore of the contacts only,
Has anybody come across this? I searched the forum but didn't find a thread about it,
Help is appreciated in advance.
Sign out / Delete of all your accounts that sync contacts . Restart your device. Then slowly add each one and let it resyc.
