Txt / sms messages not displaying name

One of my contacts does not display his name, just his phone number when in txt messages. I can't for the life of me figure out why?
He is linked up to fb and fb for htc sense and the details for him in the phone contact are all there.
Another contact shows the name but has M after the name, possibly where i may have had the m in that field for 'mobile' but the contact itself doesn't have it, i've synced with outlook and looked at the contact on that and the m is no where to be seen!! it's not from the sim either becuase this is a brand new sim.
I'm not impressed with the fb sync with this phone, its ****e, half of my contacts don't display pics of fb and they are defo synced both with fb and fb for htc sense
it's all a bit ****, which is a shame as i'm really happy with the phone
any ideas?
have you tried deleting both errored contacts entirely, (clear cache if you're rooted) and re-entering them?

Well, that was my next plan of action. I'm not rooted, any way of clearing cache if not?
ive just noticed another with the m, where the hell is it picking that info up from, it's simply not in the contact details grrrr
hang on, they have all got it, its to show its a mobile number?? have you not got that?

Instead of using a import/restore app for your contacts, you could always sync it to your google acct and it will automatically restore once you sign in during initial google setup...

I have similar problem where all my contacts have been duplicated and then there are contacts with no phone no.'s. Isnt there a way to group the accounts or delete duplications?
-Phone > contacts > visible contacts > Show all
-Export all your contacts to a .csv file. (on the sd card)
-Delete all contacts: phone, sim, Google and others (tango, Whatsapp etc.)
-Log in to your Google account and import your contacts from that csv file you created. I suggest doing this on a pc.
Now, in Google, you can manage your contacts by editing, merging or marking all and deleting duplicates (if there're any)
Your phone will automatically sync all your refined Google contacts and of course Tango, Whatsapp, Viber etc. will get that contact list and everything will be synced and perfectly set up.
Then it's up to you what contacts you want to have in the contact list and whether you only want to show "phone numbers only"
Saving contacts on phone or sim card is a bit old school
I'd like to recommend, like y2quila suggested, using Google for contacts because it's reliable and painless. It's also a great time saver, especially when changing phones or in case you lose your phone or sim card. All you have to do is logging in to your Google account and voila

If your contacts are already on Google then log in to your account and mange them by marking all and deleting duplicates. If they're not on Google I suggest doing so by exporting them to a file on sd card or pc and then importing them in Google and doing as suggested.

this's what i did
i view all contacts together and then upload them to google account then locate contacts.google.com and there i edit them so i start search in my contacts for example i seach ( @yahoo ) and delete all ( @hotmail ) and delete all etc etc then for facebook contacts i hade to chose them one by one you can see them names without numbers i also select them manualy
but after all i have a problem with whatsup messenger when installing i get error about android.acore.proccess crached and after a too many retries i get it installed and even so after installed i get every 15 sec the error message so i think ur problem is def than mine so i hope u get help
and another thing managing the contacts from contacts.google.com is easier becuase when ur done deleteing non numbers accounts select them all and from option menu click on find duplicates and then remove them or search google play store for duplicate remover
https://play.google.com/store/search?q=duplicate+contacts&c=apps
a little note about XDA fourms : this fourm is to show off don't believe there's a smart people here because this post has been here for 3 days and no one help you can find here a people smart enough to make roms and mods but in little problems like this they see the post and run away so try to help ur self like i did.

Doogee Shoot 2 Phone App Crashing After Sync

Greetings all,
I have recently decided to buy and see what $70 bucks of a phone looks and works like. I got myself a Doogee Shoot 2 with 2GB+16GB ROM. Android 7.0 OS. Phone arrived yesterday and this is what I came across. As soon as I log in with my google account and contacts are synced the following issue appears: when I want to dial in on the keypad a random number outside my contacts as soon as I hit the 3rd number the phone app crashes and throws me out. Saying something like : Phone app has crashed too many times, closing app. If I do not sign in with my account, the app works perfectly fine. The only way I can call a number outside my contact list is to add it to the contact list first and then dial the number. Things I have tried: flushing cache data, app data of both Phone app and SIM app. Flushing phone cache. Stop automatic updates on Google Play. None of these helped. Factory reset fixes the issue, as long as I do not sign with my account. I haven't tried to sign in with "empty" or recently created google account, so I cannot say if this will, but again not good for me either. Do you think this can be fixed ? I think I will stick to big brands from now on.
On my Shoot 2 It doesnt happen...
Do u know how to root this phone?
Regards

Contacts problem

Since the last system update a couple of days ago, my Contacts are no longer displaying.
I have 250 contacts in one account (call it A) and 10 in a second account (call it B).
Until the update, there was a setting in Contacts that allowed me to select which account to use and I used account A.
After the update, it shows the contacts in account B, and I can not find any way of choosing account A.
Account A is still shown as usual in the list in Accounts. I have no reason to believe the records in this account have been deleted, and if they were I should still have been able to select that Account.
I'm going to download a different Contacts app and see if that sees then, but does anyone else recognise this problem? Any ideas?
Try clearing the system cache.
Clear app cache.
Unistall/reinstall the app.
Thanks for suggestions! I'm just diving into food but will follow up later and report back.
I've cleared the Contacts cache, and found the right account in Contacts. It says there are no contacts in that account!
But I downloaded another Contacts app from Google Play and it shows all the contacts present and correct. I could use this instead and phone people from it...
But when I use the Phone app, it has a link to the original Contacts app and I can't replace this with a link to the new app. So when I receive a call, the Phone app can't show me the caller's name.
Does that make sense?
I've had trouble with contacts on my 10+.
Never saw this happen before.
Huge whole blocks of contacts disappearing. I can't recall the exact fix.
I may have deleted sim toolkit data to force repopulation... whatever I did it was fast but not fun
No data was loss.
Always have multiple backup copies on hdds
I'm using the native app "Phone" which I think is an open source app that Samsung uses.
I've been using this setup since the phone was new. Never had a moment's trouble. I had changed nothing. It only failed with the latest system update.
I've now got it back.
I removed that account completely. Reinstalled it and imported the data. Still no contacts.
Removed the account again. Created a new account with a different name. Imported data. All contacts now visible.
As they say, Go figure!
