Hello everyone,
Thank you for taking time to look at this thread. This may be a very noob question but I cannot figure out a way to get it right. Problem is,
Contact names get changed when linked with another and so my contacts look ridiculous. as a example,
When I have a contact named "Roy(company)" and same person has the skype name "roy1985", when I linked both its just "roy1985" is appear on my contacts. is there any way to link them and have the name I assigned ("Roy(company)") to be in my contacts app?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thank you.

Apologies; the symptom is the same. If you don't have any SIM contacts, then your problem is different. Sorry.
Thank you very much .I missed the link. was searching in your old posts :-D
But there is no problem with the picture The name of the contact is displayed in place of Name!

Same here, I get the +61######### instead of the contact name.
I've got my contacts set to display google contacts only.
Any fixes?

2 days before i have upgraded my sony W8 from 2.1 to 2.3.7
after successful installation i had restored the back up taken for contacts and SMS.
The restore process was done successfully, i am able to view the sms, however not able to view the contacts
While in the call log, i can see the names does it means that the contacts also restored successfully?
If yes then why i am not seeing the contacts ?
can anyone help me for this ?
Is that a Windows-based device? You're posting in an Android forum. Furthermore, please use a descriptive title and not just "Q" -- obviously, you have a question, otherwise you wouldn't be posting in here. It helps people sift through the posts and determine which they could help with and those in which they do not, all without having to open all the threads and read the entire OP.
Unable to view contacts
sorry for that, and sorry for the delay as wel.
I am using a Sony Ericsson W8 device, this is not a windows based.
few more things like to share.
i have one app called Folder Orgaaniser, using this app i am able to see all the contacts.
every time i save a contact it does not show me the saved contact, but i can see that in folder organiser.
moreover if that person calls me, i get his name displayed on the screen, but my contact list is showing empty.
is this helpful or need some more info ?
Hello Everyone,
I'm a longtime lurker and new to rooting. Anyway, please don't judge me, but I have a very large email account that I sync using Exchange ActiveSync with the default email app. I have several folders with more than 5000 emails in them. These folders will not sync completely because of the limitation in the stock app. When I open any of these folders, the phone displays a message that says "Maximum number of messages (5000) displayed." I also had a Verizon Galaxy S3 and this limit did not exist. Is there anyone who can tell me how to remove this limit as it was on the S3 so I can download my whole account? I would really appreciate this and thank you.
Could anyone possibly help with this? I would be willing to buy some beer for anyone who would. If not, could someone at least tell me where to look to modify the code that is imposing this restriction? Thank you.
Anyone? Please?
Same issue

Did you or anyone find a resolution? I am dealing with the same exact issue.

After trying to find an answer to this for months I decided to make a post. After converting my contacts from my old Windows Mobile Phone to a Note 3 I have exactly one contact with an issue. The issue is only in the text thread and is a problem when I try to send a text to the contact from the preexisting thread. The contact number at the top of the screen (below the name) has a letter in front of the number for some reason. The letter is not present if I go into the contact or if I export the address book to a spreadsheet through Gmail or Microsoft Live. I tried deleting the contact from Gmail and Live to see if it will start a new thread or fix the error, but it does not. The issue is not present when I create a new text to send to the contact so long as I am not doing it from the preexisting thread, but then everything ends up in the preexisting thread instead of a new thread.
Hopefully someone here can walk me through a backdoor way of editing a text thread to fix this issue with the random letter in front of the contact's number so I can have regular text conversations with this contact without deleting the entire thread and message history.
Is there a moderator able to help guide me in the right direction if this should be posted somewhere else?
Help!
I really could use some advice on this matter as I am yet to find a solution.
Hey all,
i am new in this forum. I need a very simple application that does the following.
When an incoming call is received, search within my calendar (preferable the calendar of my choice) and if the phone number is found for any calendar entry, display on my screen the event details.
I need this simple application so i will not have to save every single caller in my phone book.
Please help since i cannot find anything.
Thanks Heraklis

I've never seen one like that...but I was in kind of a similar situation because I get a good amount of calls for my business and often like to save the number with some notes for a few days or few weeks, but not necessarily in my contact list so I found this app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.apps.sreeni.qcktag&hl=en
When you "tag" a caller and they call back then you will see a pop-up with the name / info you added for the tag. So convenient to help keep organized.
thanks but...
Thank you for your reply but this is not what i need. I have call reminder pro which is similar, but this is double entry for me and it is time consuming. Any other solutions?
