I enabled fast dormancy then rebooted and got this message. I cleared contact data and cache now my phone tells me the contacts app does not exist. How can I reinstall contacts to make this message go away?

Did you clear data for contacts storage as well ? Here are apks if that will help.
I cleared the data then went to clear the cache I may have clicked uninstall by accident. Thanks for the apk files, how do I go about flashing them?

You should be able to download right to your phone, make sure allow unknown sources is checked in security settings. Then go to download folder and install, or copy and paste with a root explorer.
Using a root explorer I saw that both of those files were still installed on my phone, I couldn't uninstall them to try and reinstall them. I get the message " uninstall not successful"

Did you try clearing contact storage ? Also check to see that permissions are set as rw-rw-rw-, you could also try clicking on the apks in system apps and see if it will reinstall

Just did this on my phone to test. Using root explorer go to system apps ,make sure it is mounted r/w long click on contacts and select delete. Go to download folder find contact apk, long click and select copy. Go back to system apps and select copy. Long press on contacts apk in system, select permissions and set to rw-rw-rw- , then reboot.

Thanks for the suggestion, I did exactly that and it still have the problem. Not sure if this is related but when I go to settings-apps-downloaded or All nothing appears in the folders, the apps appear in my app drawer and run fine. Were you able to uninstall both the files?

The apps not showing up is fixed in 7.3 , would you try updating. Then clear app data from manage apps for both contacts and storage. By the way how did you clear it the first time ?

Checked my contacts app, it isn't running nor can I enable it. I noticed after restarting my phone the message would come back and I have to clear contacts storage each time. This is a real pain..

Other than restoring to stock and rerooting and unlocking, I am out of ideas. All of your data would be saved so it isn't that big of a pain.
Edit...do you have both these lg contact apps in system apps? And are the permissions set as shown ?
i had my at&t avail phone rooted and i was uninstalling built in apps for more space. I use Go Launcher instead of my built in launcher so i decided to uninstall the built in launcher, rebooted the phone and all i see is a black screen with notification bar.
I tried these possible solutions and did not work for me
1. Flash ROM
2. Factory reset
3. using adb
please ! tell me ways to access these applications below to install a launcher app
1. Email (attach a launcher in the email and open it on my phone)
2. Browser (install apk launcher)
3. Settings (enable USB debugging for adb)
4. Google Play ( to install a launcher from the market)
5. and any other way to download a launcher.
my notification bar works... tell me if that can help me launch those apps
Flashing a ROM compatible with your device and firmware version should give you a launcher which will work.
You don't have to do a factory reset just wipe cache and dalvik cache in CWM

If you have the rom's zip file extract the launcher from it and install it via adb.

The rom is corrupted, use another rom or Redownload it and then flash it from CWM.

Is wifi or data works?
In your notification bar is there any option to turn-on wifi or data?
If so, then login to google play in your computer and install any launcher apps. you will see that app to be downloaded in your notification bar.. try opening it.. should work i think...
He has stock recovery. Hence the abort of installation.
Fyi no phone is mantioned you just say it is an AT&T phone.
Anyway with stock recovery you need a launcher in zip and signed. Search and please do mention what device you are using.

ok, I have my phone rooted, i put the vending apk on system/app. Now I am going to log in with another gmail account. Should I install google play? what follows? or should I execute "vending" form the folder you told me?
thanks..
well, I installed it from system/app and it remains crashing
vending.apk is googleplay it self.
hmmmm, lets try erase applications data in settings > application > googleplay.
if it still can't work, i only recommend you to reflash your stock rom.

I was on my phone this morning and was going to look at some music to buy, but when I tried to open the play store it opened for a split second then closed. I've tried again, and again and it will still not work. So if you guys could help me to try and fix it that would be great! Thanks!

Go to setting > more > application manager > all > google play > clear data
You'll likely have to re enter your account data but should work fine after that.
