It seems like the custom view In the Galaxy S6 Contacts app is not functioning correctly. The app, which looks very similar to the stock Lollipop app, has the option of displaying a customized view. In it, you can check off what you want to display. For example, you can show contacts from Google Plus, Facebook, Waze, etc. I uncheck everything and only have My Contacts (which is a type of group in Google Contacts), and Starred in Android.
What actually gets displayed is seemingly every contact I have, or anyone that's ever emailed me.
I have a Nexus 5 also logged into the same Gmail account and it's Contacts display is perfect.
How to filter contacts in "Messaging "? Actually when I type a word in filter part, it searches among text of messages and doesn't show the contacts....
I have noticed that most of the Music belong to Pakistan in the Nokia Music Store is under the category of Boolywood/India. I would request to take actions in order to fix all PAKISTANI media content ASAP. Choose correct genre, country and any other information. Bollywood is not an acceptable Genre for Pakistani music. This is NOT fair and does not suit NOKIA to do this kind of unfair acts.
I have a Lumia 710 and have run into a problem with the latest version of Nokia Music. I am from the US, but am working overseas in Russia. My Phone language settings are set to English US, but with the recent Music App update, the program itself displays English, but all the Mixes are showing in Russian. This wasn't the case with earlier versions. Please make sure the app does not override the language setting with location based language information for those of us working/living in different countries.
I recently bought the Nokia 5800 Xpress Music and tried to connect to the internet via my Linksys ADSL wireless router. As i have added MAC Filtering to keep wireless network safe, i tried to add my 5800's MAC in the filter list. but when i tried to save the settings an error message popped up saying "The MAC address cannot be the Multipart Address.".Any thoughts on what that means? or what should i do?The connection works fine if i dont apply the MAC filtering. It is might be some problem at router end.
Does Nokia 5800 Xpressmusic browsing have an issue with WPA2 encryption and MAC filtering? I noticed that my unit browses a lot slower in my N-router with WPA-Personal encryption and MAC filtering as compared to my Wireless G router with WEP security and NO MAC filtering.
Love the phone - just got a really irritating problem. I've synced my phone with my gmail account - the My Contacts list has my key contact email addresses. Then I have multiple groups within gmail account relating to work emails etc, nearly 500 odd.
On the phone, when I click my 'Contacts' button, initially it showed all my phone number contacts, as well all google email contacts mixed with them. I corrected this by going to 'display options' to select 'display only contacts with phone numbers', so that I didn't have to trawl through random email addresses mixed with my proper phone contacts. Great, sorted.
But, when I go to compose a text message - if it is to one or two specific contacts it is fine...I just type their name and it comes up. If I want to scroll through all my phone contacts to send the same message to multiple contacts, big problem - I press that envelope button in the top right corner next to 'enter recipient', and it takes me to the Contacts list, but here it still shows ALL 600 odd contacts with phone contacts still mixed with google email contacts, which is impossible to scroll through and select multiple people to send a text message to....Does anyone know how to sort this out?!??!
I have a new phone. AT&T couldn't add my Droid Maxx to their service, so now I have a phone, with contacts from google, but the contacts don't have any phone numbers even though on a computer I can clearly see the phone numbers. Need transferring contacts from google to galaxy s6 contacts. With out phone numbers, and phone isn't really a phone.
I've done everything that I have read online, and everytime I go to the facebook app settings, it already shows that facebook contact is checked to not sync, yet i have about 500 extra contacts and pointless facebook emails in my phone that I don't want--nor do I want to spend 5 hours doing so to delete them.
Got a problem with my Facebook Contacts not being displayed in my contacts list on my S5. Tried just about everything possible from uninstalling Facebook to a factory reset of the phone. Have checked all the account settings and everything appears fine.
Ok, so when I am in the compose message view I start typing a name to send a message to and the phone shows me all numbers for that contact, even if I deleted that number... for example say my contact Lewis upgrades and gets a new number, I edit his contact, deleting the old number and replacing it with the new. Then when I type LEW into the compose message "to" section it shows all numbers ever stored under that name, if you know what I mean..? So i am typing someones name getting multiple numbers even if they only have 1 number to there name.This also seems to be the case if someone registers a number to FB and I overwrite that number with a new number
Currently using a Samsung S5. A new Gmail account was set up for this phone in order to sync the contacts to this new Gmail account. Previously it was synced to another Gmail account. Even though the phone said all has been synced (to the new Gmail), nothing appeared when I login to the new Gmail account contacts.
I spent ages yesterday individually connecting each phone contact to their fb account and then today all of a sudden they all just dissapeared again! I don't want every fb 'friend' to appear in my phonebook, so how on earth do I do this so that it's not going to delete them all each day. This phone won't defeat me, it has such good reviews so I am baffled why I am having problems.
I recently purchased 2 SGS II phones - one for myself and one for my wife. I have this same problem with both of them.When I go into Email and try to pull up the list of my contacts I can only see about 7 of my 50 contacts. The screen will not scroll to display all the contacts.It first was not working on my wife's phone. I checked it on my phone and it was working when I first tried it but it stopped working as I was testing the scrolling function. Now neither phone will scroll so you can see all your contacts.
she had an htc m7 one, and was using the native contacts app.i'd like to somehow backup these contacts on the htc m7 and then get them into the native android contacts app on the new S6 so that they are always backed up/synced in the future.
For some reason when I choose the phone app I get a message that says "Unfortunately, contacts as stopped" and I can't even make a phone call. I read the posts and cleared the contacts cache to no avail. I have no new apps installed that affect contacts....is this a bug?
I purchased the S6 back when it launched and haven't regretted the decision once. However, I've had this issue for around a month and a half whereby quite a few contacts don't show up - at all - they used to, but have vanished. Outlook thinks they're on the phone, but the phone won't show them Many people call or message me, but their number doesn't show up.
I currently use outlook for synchronising between three phones and a tablet. The tablet and other two phones display all contacts, but this S6 however doesn't - bearing in mind the tablet is also a Samsung.
I've tried wiping the contacts and then putting them back again through outlook, but still no change.I've also checked the display settings found within the contacts app to ensure it's not selected on something whereby it doesn't show all contacts.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S5 (Android 4.4.4) on the SPRINT network.
Everything works OK. But in my contacts, they are sorted by first name instead of last name (which is more useful).
I can get to the settings menu for contacts (Contacts app, three-dots-menu, Settings), but I only have options for import/export and swipe to dial. NO SORT.
I use the smartphone listed below. When I click on the menu, I have the UNLINK choice on the menu. Most of the duplicate listings, are CLOUD or Google. How do I get rid of the Duplicates without deleting them individually.?
Now my contacts disappear regularly from my S5. I can get them back only by restarting the phone. Error messages says ....android.acore has stopped. I'm running 5.1.1, and I can't haven't been able to tie the problem to any specific app.
I cleared the cache and did a factory reset a few weeks ago because my "back" and "menu" buttons weren't working. (They are still not working, but a separate app has given me a serviceable "back" button.) I cleared the cache again this week, but the contacts still disappear once or twice a day.
I have a Spring Samsung Galaxy S5 (Android 4.4.4). Everything works OK. But in my contacts, they are sorted by first name instead of last name (which is more useful).
I can get to the settings menu for contacts, but I have ZERO options for sorting. Just import/export and swipe to dial.
I notice sometimes a bit of stutter when i am scrolling through the contacts and log, you notice it when you try to scroll slowly, and in the app drawer there is some too, it happens when you do not open the app drawer for a bit of time, then you open it and slide between the pages and the first slide stutter a bit, after that its fine..... I am thinking of doing a factory reset..... I have my phone for about 5 weeks now....
