Xperia Z1- Contacts Don't Save - Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

contacts don't save
Hi all,
I have the problem that contcts don't add to my contacts list any more. Also, the option "show phone contacts" does not appear under filters any more. Just SIM contacts and all cantacts.
How can I recover the contacts?
Is it possible to reset the phone to a previous situation (backup from april?), and how?
Thanks for your help,
Andreas

Hi, did you have any picture add it on your contacts?
If yes you have to remove it and do all again.
Remove the picture and goes to the quick contacts and select the contact again and choose the picture do you want. The problem will be finished.
Regards and post the if it done please
Yeah i have a picture for every contact. But the problem is that the contacts, including the pictures, are synced from my Adress Book on my Mac. So changing a picture on the MDA will mess up my contactlist. And second, i don't have the pictures stored on a disk or something. They are part of the 'contactcard' they belong to.
It should work...
It was a long painful process but it worked.
Thanks

[Q] SIM contacts availlable on Contacts tab?

Hi
I've had a search but I can't find anything regarding my question, which is this:
Is it possible to display the SIM contacts when the Contacts tab is selected?
From what I can see it is only the phone contacts that are visible. I am aware that I can copy my SIM contacts to the phone to get them to be visible, but this is not what I want to do if I can help it. I am also aware that I may not be able to get photos associated to my SIM contacts, but that's not a problem for me.
Thanks

Help. My contacts dont show up.

Hi Guys,
I have Bifmod 2.1 on my G1 and I dont see all my contacts when I tap on the Contacts tab in the phone application. I have installed phonebook 2.0 . In this app, I could see the contacts that I dont see in the stock phone application. However, in the phonebook 2.0, I dont see all the numbers for a Contact. I see only one number.
Could somebody help me understand what should I do to see all my contacts in the Stock phone app? I like the Stock phone app but I dont see all the contacts ( the newly added ones do not show up at all). If the newly added contacts call me, they are shown in the call log, but they are not shown in the Contacts tab.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

First dumb question... you signed into gmail?
Yes, I have signed into Gmail and have imported my contacts from my SIM.

Contacts only off of my sim card?

What if I only want to use the contacts off of my sim card and not contacts saved to phone or from my Google account? Is this possible?
Yes, contacts -> display options uncheck google and facebook.
Do I need to "Import from SIM card". With my Vibrant and any other GSM phone I just slide the SIM in and there are my contacts shown off of my SIM. Does stock Android not do this?
I imported my SIM contacts and in display options under Choose contacts to display. Only Google is showing up AND I am showing triple contacts in my phonebook, YES THREE OF EACH CONTACT. What the HECK is going on. A little frustrated with this.

first of all, in contacts under accounts, uncheck sync contacts.
then delete all the phone contacts (you may use mass contact delete app from market).
then import from sim card.
in this way, no repetitions and only sim contacts would be displayed on the phone.
also if you want to manage the contacts on phone and on the sim use "contacts to sim" app from market.
hope it helps.
and also to mange the contacts of your gmail, in pc go to gmail, then on left side, click contacts.
and in options click merge duplicates. it does it.
but again duplicates. lol
so what i did is deleted the gmail contacts and if it again backups i delete again.
hope it helps.
Thanks for your assistance. I just wish that "SIM" would show under "Accounts" just as it does in my Samsung Vibrant.

unable to save the contacts in HTC increadible s

Hi Every one
good evening...... This is my first time here and heard a lot about this forum and i have a problem with my HTC incredible S phone where the new contacts are getting saved however when try to retrieve the newly added contacts say after a week it is not there and i have lost a lot of very important number and i cannot find any logical solution with this issue and i recently updated the ios to ICS4 and previously it was gingerbread
please give me a solution to the problem or guide me to the site where the solution is available
thank you in advance
Well that's a weird problem... Try this: Recreate every single contact in one go and export them in a v-card file (that's the way, I backup my contacts - it's easy to backup and restore) after saving the file try a factory reset and import contacts after it. This could help u, but be sure that a factory reset will wipe out all your data on your phone (except SD-card).
It could also be something to do with your settings..
wen you create a a contact you could be saving it to your gmail account & your phone may be displaying the contacts on your phone.
and vice-verse. you could be saving to your phone & set display contacts to gmail account.
i do not think it is possible for you to just loose the contacts

i did check it and all the contacts face book g mail phone sim everything is getting displayed
well if it is synced to google, log in to your gmail account & goto 'contacts'
see if the missing contacts are there.. if they are then there could be some problem with the phone (highly unlikely)
