Hi guys,
I have offered an atrix to my dad ( stock 2.3.4 rooted), but each time I choose, or create a contact i got a FC with this message "sorry, force close application of space contact (process com . Motorola.contact)" or something like that (Google translate is my friend but my friend is not perfect)
Is anyone has any ideas?
All the contact are Google contact that were sync when he logged his Google account.
Only way to launch call is to use dial pad but impossible to create new contact :'(
Any ideas?
Clear data?

Tried before with clear data? Anyway do have a backup of contact before doing anything.
download Titanium back up from market
Click on backup/restore at the top of titanium
go to motorola contacts and freeze this app (this should stop you getting the 'process com . Motorola.contact' fails.
after you have done that we can look at helping you get your sync working properly.

unfreeze the motorola contacts ([email protected])

Hello everyone...
everytime I try to create a new contact (saving a phone number), my p500 selects the contact to be a "PC Sync" contact type...
I want it to be a "google account" type instead, so it can be synchronized with my Gmail acount...
I know I can change this option when saving a new contact to a google account type, but if I accidently save it as a PC Sync type, I just cant change it by editing the contact, I must delete the contact and create a new one again as a google type...
in short words - I want to disable\delete the LG PC Sync option from my Optimus one p500...
please help me out, and excuse my English.
Thanks alot..
Anyone? please help...
If you have a rooted phone, install 'titanium backup' and freeze the 'pc sync' service. This will remove the option of pc sync from appearing when you are trying to add a new contact. Unfortunately, for me, the default contact save location changes to 'sim' rather than the google account. I still am unable to remove the ' sim' option. You can try for yourself. if the 'freezing' doesn't work out, you always have the option of 'defrosting' through titanium backup.
And
I had created a thread with the same question. searching for it would have provided you with the same info as in my post.would have saved me the trouble of writing it twice.
Sorry, I did searched and never found an answer, thats why iI started this thread...
Hi,
any progresion here? It's realy annoying to allways set it to google - should be default definitely. I allways miss it and have to create contact twice :-(
I'm searching too for a fix for this thing. Did somebody managed to solve this?
I agree with victortangocharlie.

Yeap, that worked , I disabled the app PCSync.apk with systemappremover after I did a backup of it and now it`s working...when I create a new contact I have directly my google account. Thanks allot for the tip
If I'm right there's an option in Contacts for it. Same goes for Calendar.

Now that my Nook is rooted, I'm trying to find a contact manager that will sync with Google contacts. Not having the phone portion of the Android system makes it difficult to load contacts!
Any ideas?
I have also been looking for this without luck. Every contacts app that I have tried force closes. I even copied the CM7 stock app from my Nook Color to my Tablet, but got the same result. Seems something is missing from our Android build....but I don't know what....
I'm using Go Contacts. It's free on the Market.
That did it! Thanks.

I'm having a hard time getting Go Contacts to sync with my gmail contacts for some reason.
I all I have to do is download/install, and then make sure it shows my gmail account in the app??
Update
And I need to learn to try every possible thing before I ask for help...I'm not actually retarded, I promise.
For those who are having problems with getting your contacts to sync:
1)Download and install Go Contacts
2)Open Go Contacts
3)Press Menu Key
4)Press Setting Icon
5)Press Backup and Recovery
6)Press Account Sync
7)Select whichever account's contacts you want to sync
8)Check the box to begin syncing Contacts
Anyone had problems creating or editing contacts? I found that for me, this and other functions weren't working until I installed the stock email app using Indirect's method. (Thread is in this same section.)
Now Go Contacts properly allows me to add/edit contacts (I guess it needs to use an outside contact editor for this, and B&N's stock doesn't work.) Now contacts-to-email functions properly.
A nice bonus is that street addresses will open in Google Maps (or Google Earth if you have either installed) and phone numbers will open a chat in textPlus.
I think the stock email app also fixed some issues with other contact managers that were crashing or giving 'no application for that' errors before. I was curious and reinstalled a few that had failed before, and some worked. But overall, none seem as seamless as Go Contacts, so I wouldn't recommend anything else.
I have the stock email installed as well as go contacts...they sync fine but I still can not edit or add contacts...both installed to system/app and both have permissions set to:
Read write
Read
Read
Can not get go contact to edit/add
I shut down and restarted....no luck...anyone have any ideas? Maybe remove the stock social.apk?

When you say you can't get go contact to edit/add, what happens when you tap the edit icon on the top right of the screen? Can you actually edit the details? Do the changes not save?
Go Contacts works perfectly for me.
Nothing happens when I press the + button. When I long press on a contact it takes me to a menu so I can choose edit...but nothing pulls up. Thanks for responding
Anybody know where I can get the apk for Go Contacts? I see it's not in the Amazon App Store and I don't want to send it to my phone to get the apk. Thanks.

Do you have a google account set up?
When I hit the + it says "Create contact under account" and lists the gmail account I set up for the stock email account. When I choose it, I can create new contacts.
Edit brings up the same contact editor under the same account.
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?
Chris.
"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.
Hello all,
I've searched the forum, but posts either have not been answered or the solutions are not helping.
The issue here is that when I turn on the device, go to contacts and they are all there. After some time, may be 5-10 mins, someone calls me or texts or I go to contacts myself, there are no names stored, except for the device owner (me).
What I have tried to do:
- restart the device to see contacts (yes, that helps, but I don't want to restart my device everytime I want to make a call or receive a text message)
- from settings>applications>all tab>contacts => close application and clear cache buttons (not sure how they are in English), go to contacts app choose account which do I want to sync from, in my case its Google only, press sync contacts and voila, they are there. However, for only a few minutes again. If you repeat syncing without closing program and clearing cache, then it will not help.
- filter - doesn't help. Either Google option has many suboptions but no contacts or Google option is there but no sublists (i.e. all contacts, family, friends etc.)
- all my contacts ARE in Google account, which I can see via google.com/contacts - so this isn't the problem.
- device sometimes doesn't want to sync. it does not say it has not been synced, but I can see that the "Last time" it was synced was when it really synced contacts that I could see them, but not just now.
I do not want to use any "aftermarket" apps to view contacts, as I want my device to be as stock as possible.
The first day I bought PadFone 2 it advised me to upgrade to 4.1.1 Android, which I did, so I don't know whether it did work before.
Hope someone can help.
Sincerely,
Problem solved:
Uninstall your whatsapp messenger and the problem should be resolved on your padfone 2.
The problem is the conflict of address books of your native contacts app and of whatsapp contacts. They seem to be stored in the same directory.

Indeed theproblem was caused by whatsapp messenger conflict. At least thats what asus support told me. So we now need to wait for whatsapp to solve this problem. Whatsapp dev team, can you hear me?

There are also something else that causes problem. It happens to me again and I'm not sure what it is. Maybe Friendcaster or BuddyBuzz.

Not sure, as i do not have accounts assigned to these apps. Try removing your account info from buddybuz, then friendcaster. I dont think its buddybuzs problem, as it is a native app.
Anyone knows how to right a support request to whatsapp? No one seems to read their e-mail or twitter.
Uninstalled Whatsapp..still not working
Hey guys, I have uninstalled my Whatsapp, but it seems like the problem is still not solved. Have you guys had any luck with getting your contacts to work after uninstalling Whtasapp?
Perhaps its because I downloaded Kakao talk? it sucks anyways, because I am in a distance relationship (different countries) and we need to be able to keep contact either through Whatsapp or similar apps... if this will be a problem, then we will have a problem.
are you guys sure that this doesnt have anything to do with android it self?
Same for me here!!

Yes, this still continues to haunt my Padfone2! I´ve uninstalled WhatsApp Messenger and Everything worked nicely for about 10 minutes an then the error showd up again, this time with "FC" of Contacts.
I also have some other applications that tries to put in data in my Contacts and its:
- LinkedIn
- FB
- Skype
And I Think all of them ask "you" to sync with your Contacts - it might be some of those as well? I´ll have a go and uninstall them and then see what happends.
// Zeb
What I finally did was that I did a factory reset on the Padfone 2 and then started with installing WhatsApp first together with FB, Linkedin and Twitter (did not let FB, Linkedn and Twitter sync with my Contacts).
Then I connected to my Exchange 2010 at work and then finally everything was working smooth again.

How do you prevent you phone from syncing with FB ?
Same problem here and I don't use WhatsApp, FaceBook, Linkedin, Twitter or any other similar apps for that matter. I also have problem with contacts gets duplicated and the alphabetic order does not work at all.
I have now inactivated Google contacts and only store my contacts on the device and they seems to stay put now but the sorting and duplicating problem remains.
Something has to be done about this since this make the phone not very much of a phone...

Under "Accounts" in settings, there you can find your account for "Facebook". Click it and then untick the sychronize with Contacts.

My Padfone 2 is now more than a half year old.
It keeps doing this "contact deleting thing" once a month!My Padfone 2 is now more than a half year old.
It keeps doing this "contact deleting thing" once a month!
My solution though is that go to contacts. Show contacts, uncheck FB, Twitter, Exchange mails. Everything except my Google Contacts.
I have all my Contact there.
After that I restart my phone,I do a complete Google Sync. Waiting for 5 minuts. And then all my contacts are back to normal.
But this is a very annoying habit the Padfone 2 has!
I really hope this will be fixed in a firmware update from ASUS.
This is my present firmware and Android version :
Android 4.1.1
Basebandversion M3.13.31-A68_101034
Touch Firmwareversion 1115991-30303033
sync google accounts
It's been a while since I've been through this, but unfortunately I have a similar problem. My problem is "Google account" in accounts and sync. But I can only select google photos when I click on the sync mark. No selection box for contacts. How can I fix that?
The device has clone s3 and ics 4.0.4 on it. The gapps packages available for this release also do not work. It does not synchronize people in any case. I cleaned the data from the applications, I deleted Accounts.db and reinstalled it.
Finally, I found the following lines for Accounts.xml and added it, but still there is no positive situation. What else can I do? Thank you.
Syncable = "true"> <authority id = "3" account = ".." type = "com.google" authority = "com.android.contacts"

Hi
I have a Motorola XT319 Android 2.3
I tried to save some space linking (LINK2SD) the contacts app and contact storage app.
I first had to Move them to user app (as they were system apps) and then proceeded to link. All went well but when I tried to open the PHONE app y will NOT load. Nor the CONTACTS app. I tried to UNlink it and switch it back to system app but it wouldn't.
I can't make any phone calls. PLEASE HELPPPP!!!!
Problem Update
I got no answers so far so I deleted all cache and data files and restablished factoru settings. Since reboot, I keep getting to error messages, One recarding android.process.acome and the other Google Frameworks. They keep poping up over and over. The dialer will know load, but the contacts WILL NOT.
Contact Sync is IMPOSIBLE and even though I unselect the sync option, the errors keep poping up.
I believe the problem has someting to do with the contact app.
PLEASE HELP!!!!
