I linked almost all of my contacts with their respective Facebook accounts, which means that their profile pictures and birthdays will be stored on my phone. When I sms say Contact A, his picture from Facebook comes up correctly on the left of his name.
However when Contact A calls me the Facebook picture of say Contact H comes up instead. Even contacts without any linked profiles or any pictures turn up with arbitrary contact pictures instead. I find this predicament highly annoying. Prior to linking Facebook accounts, none of my contacts had profile pictures in my phone.
Can anyone help me out here please?
so for some contacts it only shows their number in the messaging app.
For an example, if "Bob" has a number of "555-555-5555" and if i text him , it would only show his number and not his name.
how do i fix this?
this happened after i synced my contacts through facebook
I'm having two weird issues with my contacts.
First the pictures for my contacts sometimes disappear and reappear when I open my SMS
Second issue is when I open a new SMS and I type the persons name and the numbers for that person show up , I have the number in my contacts coming up for that person but I'm also getting old numbers that are out of service for that person. I tried deleting all contacts and re-importing them and still the same issue
I'm using Wondershare MobileGo to sync my Outlook 2010 with my phone. When I go into outlook there is only 1 number for a lot of my contacts and when I pull them up on the phone through the contacts only 1 number shows up, but again when I open a new SMS I get several numbers coming up for a person that I only saved 1 number for.
Where are the numbers coming from ? I did not set up the AT&T phonebook. and I have everything in my contacts unckecked ( ex: facebook, gmail, tango )
Any info would be greatly appreciated
Hello,
I'm having a small problem with my LG L9 II - Stock Kit Kat Rom V20D, rooted.
I keep all my contacts on the google server, not on my phone, for better backup.
Recently, I realised that I had multiple contacts, same name, different number. So I decided to join the contacts under a single one. For example, I had John Home number with his home number on one contact, and John Work with his work number on another. I joined the two under John, so that one contact has two telephone numbers (and maybe a facebook account) linked.
And I did this for all my phonebook.
The problem is that after resetting the phone and syncing the contacts from the google server, it didn't remember my joined contacts. I again have two phonebook entries for John, instead of one John with multiple numbers.
Oddly, deleted contacts and new entries were synced. So the problem is somewhere in the joined contacts area.
Is there a fix for this? I hate having to manually join the contacts again and again after every reset/phone switch/etc.
Thanks!
This is the first android phone that I have had without the option in contacts to choose "show only contacts with phone numbers." Anyone know another way to make this happen? Through Gmail settings or a certain app? Frustrating seeing so many random emails and crap pop up because of Gmail. Sorry if it's a noob question, help much appreciated!
I'm in the same boat as you. I have a S6 and hate that I can't "Show only contacts with phone numbers" on here. Hope this is something in the works or perhaps I'm just not doing it right.
This setting is in the contacts to show options, where you choose accounts contacts are to be pulled from.
Unfortunately it still pulls all email address only contacts. I'd like only contacts with phone numbers.

it's not there. the problem is that the S6 or maybe Gmail itself has decided to move all contacts to My Contacts and even if you attempt to edit those contacts into a different group, it won't let you. going into an individual contact on the phone, the My Contact field is grayed out and it won't even let you deselect it so you can filter another group etc.
i was going to move all the email only contacts to a different group but that won't even work now because every contact is now defaulted to My Contacts and even in Gmail contact settings itself you can no longer change that. even if you move email only to a different group, they will remain listed under My Contacts (or All Contacts) as it's called now.
pretty stupid. hopefully there's a fix coming. i'd hate to use a separate Contacts app.

You can use the web version to that.

There, you can remove contacts from the group "My Contacts" so they won't show up in the cellphone anymore (unless you search manually).
Also, I find this post very helpful:

The scripts keeps in your "My Contacts" group only the contacts with cellphone numbers.
