My new E72 devolped an interesting problem:When i open the phonebook and start typing to look up a contact, a lot of contacts do not show up in the resukts. The same happens when i start typing on the home screen, however in messaging the lookup works. Example: want to call "Anna B." I type search for "Anna" in my phonebook, "Anna K." shows up, but "Anna B." and some other contacts containing "Anna" don't.search also does not work for the last name (for completeness).Interestingly, the affected numbers also don't show up on my car kit when the phone can't find them.I can, however just scroll through the contacts ( on the phone, not on the car kit) and, bang!, the missing contacts are actually there. so just search and car kit sync are affected.The problem can sometimes be solved by resterting the phone, sometimes not. In OVI Suite all (~280) Contacts show up and can be found.I have yet to determine wether the affected contacts are always the same, but it seems that way. They are a mixture of old/new with/without picture/email etc. so nothing obvious in common.
I recently updated my software and all my contacts in my phone book went missing, but when a call comes in the correct details of the person calling shows on the screen... this is very bizarre? I have tried everything to get them back, but nothing seems to be working. Even when I add a new contact it doesn't show in my phone book. How can I fix this?
A month ago my 8310 Curve, v. 4.5.0.55 (Platform 2.7.0.68) service provider O2, stopped being able to search and find Contacts unless I had added them after that date. These newer Contacts have not been folded into the original Address Book, but are all in a new and alphabetised list at the end of the original Contacts list. There are no Categories assigned, no Network sync, and Content is not protected. The Contacts are in the phone, not on the SIM.
Before this, I could type in to the Address Book or the phone the first 2-3 letters of someone's name and it would take me to that contact - now it says there's no such person. So I have to scroll through the entire address book to get to who I want, and then I can call/SMS etc.
So when I click my contacts icon on the iphone a bunch of my contacts are missing. If I use the search function, the page to the left of the home screen, i can find contacts I've added and ones I'm looking for, but they dont show up under contacts. There're obviously on the phone somewhere, but I dont know where. O and if I add a contact via the contact icon, push the little green plus sign, and add it manually it will show up under the contacts, but if i try and save something from resent calls or maps and say add to contacts, new contact, it doesn't show up. Also if I add a contact to outlook and sink, it wont show up either. Thanks and hopefully this is pretty clear.
I was previously using E71 and recently switched to 5230 touch screen phone.One thing that i really find it difficult is to find contact in address book. The search function bring up entire A-Z keys in 2 pages so flipping through the character set is little annoying... further as u type.the key set narrows (good feature) but then u have to look hard for the next key as the position has changed.I wonder if the search functionality similar to N72 (t9) is implemented here so that all the keys are visibile on single screen...(in home screen the dialer is the best place to implement. as u type the character the address books gets filtered)..
The character set flipping and changing position every time takes lots of effort.i would rather like to use a fix character set (the standard number+abc keypad) on same screen and see the adress get filter insted of flipping pages and trying to see where the next char is.
May i request the moderator to pass this message to 5230 team so that they might consider this a new feature request and we might get this feature in next Firmware release.
My address book shows my both my email contacts and my phone number contacts. I just want to view my phone ook contacts and not the emails. How can i change this?!
I've just changed my N79 for an N86. my N79 had a useful search function in the main menu, which enabled me to search through the phone for particular files etc.As far as i was aware, the N86 also had this, as i noticed it on a couple of internet reviews.However, it's not on the phone.i thought it might be in applications> office or in tools, but it's not there. Does anyone know why and if you can download it?
I can't seem to find a way to change the default behavior of the Contacts app to search only for contacts that have a phone number.
My contacts are synchronized with my Google account and since Google saves all used emails as contacts (in the "Other Contacts" group), whenever I search for a contact in the phone I get a list of all the emails that also match my search. this is so annoying.
I enabled the option "Only contacts with phones" in the settings, but that seems only to affect the contacts that are displayed in the list, search is not affected by it.
I also tried changing the "Contacts to display" option to use a customized list and selecting only the desired group (My Contacts) from my Google account, but nothing was affected except for the list itself.
Any way to change that behavior without installing a third party dialer app?
When I am start to make a call I start the phone app. Then activate the num block.At the number keys there is letters.I would find it natural to start typing the letters that my contacts name starts with. But it do not work that way. Even when I know that the app is looking in the cantactlist after each number i press.
i have a two year old curve 8520. Suddenly i am facing a problem. i am not able to add any new contact or edit existing contact. I have restarted my phone number of times but the problem still persists.
How do I remove all my FB contacts from my phone book? they are all in there and I don't want them in there. I never knowingly asked for them in there. The manual for my phone does not help as it bears no resemblance to my phoen anymore. Not sure I like this new software.It doesnot even have the alphabet for easy scrolling in the music.
i cannot edit my phone book contacts (add new contacts or edit a number) on my curve 9300, an error message appears: uncaught exception: Application net_rim_bb_addressbook_app(256) is not responding; process terminated,
I have almost 300 entries in my contact list, some of them transferred from my old BlackBerry.None of my contacts are on my sim phone book as my device states it is empty.Is there a quick way to add my contacts to my media or sim phone book without having to do each one individually?
I recently got my BB 9300 serviced, the BB guys replaced the entire hardware...so I believe the phone is is as good as new. However, when i connect the phone & sync with the BB desktop software, its recoginses the device as new & hence not all my contacts are available for use.
I have installed Contact Group Manager in my X10 and created a Group for few contacts.. Those Contacts which are in that Group is not visible in the Phone Book.
I have had my iPhone 5C for a month now and when I first had it I was able to add phone contacts. Now when I try, the cursor flashes ready for the information but the onscreen keyboard won't come up to enable me to type any information. I have checked all the settings I can think of in case I have switched something off by mistake but have been unable to get any further. I only have 109 numbers in my phone so it should be able to take more, or is there a restriction?
I upgraded my phone to 2.1 and have a regular sync via PC Companion, but can no longer see my contacts when trying to dial. My phone reads, 'Cannot read from SIM ...'. However, if I go to create a new text message, I can Add Recipient and access all of my contacts, just as they appear on the SE Sync site.
I had to download an update from Go Media but this wasrelated to video. To solve it do I need to buy a new SD card or is there something else I can do,
I've searched high and low, it seems I may be the first to report this issue:not long after I upgraded to the new firmware, I noticed that I can no longer search my contact list; I can get into contact list, but when I try to type some letters into the search box, the letters do not "stay", it comes up for a very brief moment and then deletes itself :-/
I've tried typing in other languages: same.
I've tried typing in other application: works as normal
I've tried clearing the cache using y-browser: no good
I've tried reseting the phone - both the 7370 and 7780 method: doesn't really fix it -> 7370 reset will fix it for a while, but as soon as I load my contact lists back in, it either stops working or allow for one more search and then it's gone.I'm suspecting it's related to the new firmware... and that's pretty much the only thing I haven't tried, I don't know how to roll-back the firmware
As you know Nokia confuses duplicate numbers and doesn't show any names for them, showing only the number
I have a missed called from someone and I'm sure I know the number but can't figure out who the caller was because evidently I have it with two contact entries.I dont want to search more than 400 contacts!
I have two N8s..1st I purchased in 11 Jan 2011 and second one on 27 Dec 2011. Both have latest firmwares (025.007.C03.01) installed on them. But there is a difference in search option for contacts.The first phone (black in the pic) has normal old fashioned keypad which occupies the whole screen. And the second one (white in the pic) has qwerty keyboard which occupies half the screen.Why is so?I want qwerty in black N8 too.
