Since updating to the latest version of the software about a week ago, my contacts have cloned themselves. I now have well over 100 entries for each individual contact. Contacts and messaging now takes up to a minute to open and the contacts are impossible to use. I have 2 gmail accounts, 1 activesync, 1 outlook.com account along with facebook contacts set to sync. It was all working well until the a few days ago.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI imported my contact via phone portal with a Motorola backup file (*.bak) and selected Motorola Services for contacts storage. However, as time passes, my contacts keep growing with hundreds of copies with each entry. I mean when I select a contact an choose "Edit Contact" list shows me hundreds of same entries, as a result phone becomes unresponsive while trying to open "Edit Contact" activity. At the same time this causes general unresponsiveness on the phone because I think it fills memory and tries to garbage collect for a long time (I inferred these by looking "adb shell logcat" and "adb shell dumpsys meminfo". When I run "adb shell dumpsys meminfo" command while trying to open "edit contact, it became hung in that process)Can Turkish characters in my contacts cause this problem?

If someone calls or text they are recognized but nothing is in the app if it decides to open. Also my visual voice-mail craps out when trying to open it. All of this since the t-mobile 5.1.1 update..

View 2 Replies View RelatedHow do I stop my contact photos appearing in Gallery on SGSII/Android 2.3.3? I know from various sites that you can add a ".NoMedia" file to any folder and it will apparently prevent it from displaying in Gallery, but I can't find the actual folder location in My Files where the contact photos are stored, so that I can put this file there - and I can't find this info on ANY web sites. Is the .nomedia thing the only way to stop this? Also, is it possible to uninstall / remove access to Gallery if I install another photo/video manager app?

I noticed on my phone bill this month that my phone had been sending literally hundreds of automatic text messages (SMS) to four numbers, at all different times of the day and night. I'm in the UK, and the numbers it's sending to are -
07860 015000
07860 015001
07860 015002
07860 015003
They're all included in my price plan, so it's not cost me anything, but I thought it was strange and started to investigate. I had noticed my text message allocation had been going down, even though most of my txts are to other iOS users, so I mostly use iMessage.
It turns out those numbers all belong to Apple - they're used for activating iMessage and FaceTime. And the reason it was trying so many times, is that the number my phone says in "my number" (Settings > Phone > My Number) isn't actually my number. I noticed this a while back, but it won't let me amend it, and because I thought it was just there for my information, I ignored it. So - I'm trying to activate iMesssage and FaceTime using my correct number. The number stored on the phone then tries to override that, attempting to activate the wrong number, which, of course, fails. So it keeps trying to activate - so far, having sent an average of 10-15 messages a day, over the course of 2 months. The incorrect number on the sim card is because I got a new account with my network (3), then swapped my old number from my previous carrier to this card. The only way to fix it is to get a new sim card, since I'm not able to amend the number stored on the sim.

I have something going on with an unknown app where the downloads folder has hundreds of duplicated files. My downloaded files folder is up to 3447 and, I'm only guessing here, but I think it only had somewhere around 500 before this? I'm not sure which app is doing this. This is occurring in two places and both are on the SD card. The first is the downloaded photos and the second is the downloaded files. It may be that the two are one and the same just that the photos folder only shows the downloaded photos from the downloaded files folder.
Also, there are photos that I have never seen before, a woman in a blue dress, a truck on fire, and others that I do not recognize. Additionally, I have noticed that other folders on the SD card are being accessed and changed as well because the dates of files inside those folders do not make any sense such as a photo that I took two weeks ago appeared yesterday as being taken yesterday. The date of that photo was dated for yesterday...
I have deleted apps, disabled apps, and stopped email from checking for new email (changed it to manual only). I thought it might be a setting in my email as a lot of the files are downloaded files from my email, but it continued after that. I'm not sure what to check next.
Is there an app that tell what apps are accessing what folders? Or is there a way for me to figure out which app is causing this? I hate to even say this, but I remember when I switched from the iPhone 3G to Android. I thought my Android blew the iPhone away until I figured out that Android does not allow me to limit the access to certain things on my phone. If I want an app, I either allow it to access whatever it wants to access or I don't download the app.
My HTC Desire Z has duplicated every contact in my phone x5 - the only problem is that when I try to delete the duplicates it deletes every copy of that contact. I had to manually delete all the contacts and re-enter them 1 by 1. i turned my phone off last night and when I turned it on again this morning it had duplicated each contact by 3! Also my husband has the same phone, he isnt having this problem but is having problems having no service or signal - sometimes for hours of end when my phone right next to his is fine?

View 1 Replies View RelatedMy icloud contacts started to get duplicate by itself, but the duplication of contacts were not seen on the icloud website as well as on my laptop. The main problem started when I deleted the duplicate contacts from my iphone icloud contacts list, contacts which I deleted were also deleted from my laptop & icloud website. Now I cannot see the deleted contacts on my iphone, laptop & icloud website. Is there any way I can restore the deleted contacts from my icloud backup & also would like to know why this problem started all of a sudden.

I have an Lumina Icon that is my work phone, and a 1320 which is my personal phone. If the 1320 has no signal and someone texts me, it gets routed thru to my work phone..... and vise versa.. I would like to keep work and personal stuff separate.
View 3 Replies View RelatedPhotos I take with my iPhone 4S appear in iPhoto on my iMac; however there are two of each photo. In other words, iPhoto on the computer is duplicating every single photo shot on the iPhone.
I think it is a syncing issue with iCloud and iTunes also syncing at the same time?
I have a BB 9780 with 2 email (msn / hotmail) accounts set up. If i send an email it is duplicating the text in the same message.It is very frustrating. I have put all updates on in the hope it would have rectified. Is there anyone else experiencing the same problem
View 1 Replies View RelatedOr do I have a defective device? It's been like this since launch day, I just figured there were some bugs in the software they had to iron out, but it's not getting better only worse. I figured this would be a big news story if it was a widespread problem, but I haven't heard anything. I can't even use my phone as an alarm anymore because it will also randomly turn itself off in the night. I've been late to work twice now because of that.

I have a Blackberry Bold 9700 on the 3 Mobile network. I only have one email account setup, and it is a Gmail account. I use Facebook for Blackberry.So here's my problem - a few days ago I checked my Blackberry Bold 9700 and saw that I had received 28 email messages and 8 Facebook notifications.However none of these emails or Facebook notifications was new. They were all ones I had already received that day.
I deleted them all, and guess what - an hour later and they all came back into my email inbox and Facebook notifications.When I went to sleep that night, I woke up with 136 emails and 26 Facebook notifications - ALL OF THEM THE SAME REPEAT EMAILS OVER AND OVER AGAIN!
I have been on forums and tried removing my battery and SIM card (not very technical, that) as well as resending the Service Books after doing this. Nothing has solved this problem though.I really hope someone can help please as I'm seriously thinking of ditching my BlackBerry and buying an iPhone where this problem doesn't occur.

I keep having to restart the device, which fixes things in the short term. But, my alarms go off and then go off again an hour later. This is getting really tiresome! It's set to auto date/time/time zone, so I don't understand why it keeps showing the wrong time.
