I have just updated my 4X to jellybean and the stock contacts app is completely gone. the dialer app still has some component as i can make calls with a third party application. my phone is not rooted and i am wondering weather having alternative apps installed (contacts+) may cause this.
any help with this problem would be very much appreciated.

no. contacts provider apk is system app. contacts+ is not. they are not related. which rom did you flash ? contacts provider is a "must have" at every rom exept if u have deleted it manually using a root app or if u have disabled it. so thats not possible.
i think man u go from stock on cm... also i think u mean sim contacts...on stock version we have apk who read sim contacts but on cm we have google synchronized contacts that mean u contacts are automaticaly backup with u google acc and u have everytime with any phone with same app... get another phone with sim contacts reader an transfer or find any app which can do that
if that is the problem i hope i help u

The phone is still completely stock and it was the app usually labeled phone and the one labeled contacts. After a factory reset, both have returned. Thanks for trying though.

apk is at stock rom too.... if he cleaned the cache in contactsprovider and in contacts storage apk then of course it was empty. wiping means to delete. in other words the fact that contacts are back isnt because he wiped but because they synced again. if he goes and delete the apks cache , contacts will be gone again and he must wait until they sync again.
so what contacts talk about geronphillips these on phone or sim contacts?

u have to press to insert contacts from sim or choose to view all contacts including the sim contacts. oke geron maybe had just cleared cache or the cache was cleared after updating and he just didnt notice that his contacts provider apk was there. nothing to worry. he had to wait for contacts to sync back.

Guys,
I'm on I9000XWJM1, just notice yesterday that my FB (Contact and Calendar) and Twitter sync is no longer working on SGS.
Error is "authentication failed"
I tried remove and add back the account via
Contact > Get Friends > Add Account > Facebook
Contact > Get Friends > Add Account > Twitter
but I get "Login failed. Try later"
anyone experience the same issue?
Nothing problems on my SGS

Same problem, only for My Space and Facebook. After this error I've add an Titter account and no errors. But can't add an Facebook or My Space account. I reinstalled another firmware, JM1, JPK but the same problem.
Same issue for me, restored to jm1 and doesnt work, this only started happening to me yesterday, i wonder if there is an issue at facebook or maybe with android?
Same here after flashed voodoo lag fix + reset to factory.

Clearly Samsung Galaxy S problem, none of MySpace, Facebook or Tweeter accounts doesn't work. When only MySpace and FaceBook accounts didn't work I've added a Tweeter account and it was ok. But after reflashing (thinked this will solve the problem), also Tweeter account didn't work anymore. Very frustrating. It's something related to SNSaccounts Service.
The same here.
Having the same problem here on my JPK, only started having the issue yesterday, reflashed today with JM1 but didnt fix it so flashed back to JPK. Can't sync any FB contacts into my contacts list. Says 'Login faild. Try later'
Also unable to receive any notifications through facebook for android.

Flashing a new firmware or upgrading through Kies never does a clean install. I was so frustrated that I've rooted my phone, entered system/app and deleted accountsync app and odex (first two files, don't remember exactly the names) and Snsaccount and Snsprovider apks and odexes. Contacts icon dissapeared and when I was accessing contacts through dialer always FC. Update to JM1 again through Kies and everything is ok now, SNS accounts works again.

Does anyone know how to solve it without deleting apks and flashing firmwares? I can't find any good information anywhere on this annoying issue.
On Doc JPO7.6.2, having this same issue as well... aiks...
google, seach, no solution yet.
Found this....
1. Log in to the desktop version of Facebook/Twitter/whatever the problem app is
2. Go to the application settings (Facebook: Account>Application Settings; Twitter: Settings>Connections)
3. Remove or Revoke the Samsung Mobile option from this list
4. Wait a couple of minutes, then try adding the account on your phone
let me know if it works...
mine still not working.. mayb need to wait longer...
What am I suposed to do?
Hi, everybody, my SGS has the same problem, but only related to the Orkut sync (Orkut is a social network from google, very popular in Brazil). I tried several ways to solve this problem, like wipe the phone and upgrade the rom with Odin (with re-partition e bootloader reinstall, using several roms, froyo and eclair) and nothing worked until I use a new orkut(google) account, and it worked, but now, suddenly (in fact, after I tried to root with z4root, but I instaled a new rom already, with re-partition) stops to sync, and the same message is displayed.
What am I suposed to do?
I'll try.

1- I use Odin whit re-partition already, but I´ll try this way. What do you think about?
2- There is some GT-I9000 clean install tutorial?

I tried, but still not working.
RC4.1 wiped my efs so I tried restoring it through a back-up I made. Tried overwriting the new one with backup but to no avail.
Any suggestions?
Also, I want to rearrange my homescreens. E.g. I want the first page to be my main homescreen. How do I go about that?
Cheers.
What ROM was before RC4.1?
To restore a 2.3.x, your have to install a clean base first...
I'm trying to download to test it.
IMEI has been restored!
New problem, Email app doesn't seem to sync my emails from my hotmail.
And still wanting to rearrange my homescreens if possible.
Here's hoping to the re-uploaded RC4.1...

I'm having problems with wifi switching betwen states ON/OFF. Trying multiple reflashes to fix it. Did you had any problems with wifi?
I don't think you can change default home screen on stoch ICS launcher! You have to use some other launcher.

No problems with the WIFI. All working well now.
And yeah, I might have to switch to Trebuchet launcher to be able to select my default homescreen.

i couldnt do that because i didnt get a backup before so i flash gingerbread with odin and now imei is ok
So back it up now just in case! Some of these roms appear to get rid of the IMEI data and whilst it appears if you just flash GB it comes back, that might not be the case always..
WRT wifi issues; I've flashed it countless times now find that the Wifi turns on and off really quickly... Sometimes I have flashed it and thought it was working only to find that if you turn WIFI off and then on again it does not see any wifi networks. Then when I reboot, the same on-off problem returns.
So I would guess that RC4.1 is still too unstable in the WIFI area. It could be my phone of course, but how much more continuous flashing I can do I don't know...
Hi i have installed RC4.1 every thing is working perfectly but the android market doesn't open i click the icon it opens and closes again any solution ???
Hi , I have more than 8000 messages on my phone. I have backed them up on my SD card and restore them whenever I flash a new ROM.
My problem is , that I can not use stock messaging application on ANY ROM I flash. It opens , I can see my list of messages , and when I try to open settings or open a conversation , it hangs/runs very very slowly and then stops responding.
On rebooting , it says I have ~2975 unread messages (which might be the reason it hangs). I can not even open the option in stock messaging app where I can mark all messages read. I have exactly the same problem with Chompsms.
I have absolutely no problem when using Handcent. It is smooth and easily handles such a volume of messages in the first go. But I prefer stock.
Is there any way I can use stock messaging ?
P.S - Do NOT ask me to delete extra messages. I already did a lot of them.
I also tried the same thing but stock mms will not work with any other rom

Well, I had the same problem. And I didn't find any solution than use 3rd party app and uninstall stock message app.
Yesterday I followed guide to install CM 11.
Because I had to do factory reset I lost everything.
I decided to manually re-create every contact and it was ok.
I turned off telephone and changed it but when I powered it I noticed that I lost every contact.
Is this bug with CM?
I dowloaded CM yesterday morning.

What of you sync with Google, I assume you backup your contacts with Google?
Sent from my GT-I8190 using xda app-developers app
No. I used local storage for contacts.
If I use Google Sync, can that help and secure it?
If you sync your contacts with google you have all your contacts on any rom, any phone any ... when you log in with your google account.
well i got a new problem here.
so basically, i can't write any SMS. That problem occured after I installed the SLiM-rom. Now I can't write any SMS anymore (using the Stock Messaging App). It always tells me that "could not send" error... I've tried google messaging, didn't work either. But calling does work for some reason.
anyone knowing how to solve that problem?
#edit: I just tried entering an USSD code, it tells me that i no connection or invalid mmi code.
I ran into that problem as well after going through a few roms. I think the issues is not doing a full wipe/erasing user data before flashing. That should fix it.

Isn't there any other way to solve that problem? If anyone needs the logcat to spot the problem (and there are some errors, I just don't know what they mean), I can give it to you.
Hey!
I had the same error, also with SLiM Rom. Sadly, I can only confirm, what Nurmi already said, after a full wipe of data I was able to send SMS again. Trying to restore my data partition which i backuped via TWRP before i started troubleshooting, led to loss of SMS function again. Some people said, the problem could be PRFC 1.0 and lower. However, if you don't want to do a full wipe, try messaging app signal. It can also be used to send SMS and worked in my case, whereas stock messaging ap as well as hangouts didn't. Only problem here ist, that in Ultra stamina you can't send SMS either, because you can only use stock apps.
Hope I could help you.
Cheers!

So basically, I have to reflash the ROM fully with Wipe Data + Cache + Dalvik?
Kinda sucks, hopefully this problem gets sorted out somehow
As I said, you could try Signal for SMS messaging, but you still won't be able to send SMS in ultra stamina
Edit: also, I can neither confirm, nor deny that the problem is caused by Slim ROM itself
I faced this issue as well, but i did not use any custom roms. I have a UK Z3C and i had flashed the latest US rom. I was able to fix the issue by downloading the UK rom and flashing it again. It could be the US rom on a UK phone problem. I downloaded the ftf using xperifirm from flashtool and flashed them.
I faced this problem with prerooted CE1. I have no solution for now
First install any other messaging app from play store then make it default messaging app. After that open Sony messaging again and make Sony default messaging app again. This should solve the problem.

I do it the same . factory reset on .264 i dont lose my root. I restore all apps and data by titanium backup and sms working now . I change firmware many times from 4.4 and newer meet this problem before it was first time.
Still can't send sms
I hope someone can help, I updated from 4.4 to 5.1.1. Now I can't send sms, I can receive sms and mms and make and receive phone calls as well use the internet.
I've flashed back to 4.4, factory reset (wiped), pc companion phone repaired, reset phone again and updated to 5.1.1 again, tried textra, signal, hangouts and stock app. But I can't send a text. I've read about rooting and using other programs but I think it is a bit beyond my scope. Any other suggestions would be much appreciated. , it's not the sim , I've tried it in another phone and it works fine too.
Edit: I have a D5833 on telechoice in Australia.
Working out out slowly
Ok, so I got a hold of another phone today, it appears my provider (Telechoice,Australia ) may be at fault. I put a different sim card in my phone and it all worked as advertised, put my sim card in another phone and I get the same issues. Worst part is, is that this is the 2nd sim card now..
So what might cause 2 sim cards to fail with the exact same issues??
