[Q] Messages Glitch

I have recently flashed DDJG4 and its by far the smoothest eclair for me but I have noticed that some of my contacts have a bug in messaging. Only their number shows up opposed to their name. This is annoying as I dont know who the message is from unless i open the contact details.
Contact details is fine, no problem. Just the messaging app.
Anyone else notice this? any fix ideas?
thanks

don't have enough messages from different people to confirm (only 4 so far). however, on a related note, do you see a long delay between unlocking the screen using the puzzle piece and the corresponding message opening in the messaging app?

Not checked. I use pattern lock. Ill have a go and see.

Sorry to say, but its just you.
I have over 41 conversations and all the names display correctly.
I noticed lagging on the lock screen to messaging in ddjf3
In ddjg4 there is no more lag anywhere.
I put the ext2 1gb lagfix just for the heck of it and the phone is now faster than me.
Reflash and see whats wrong.
Use the Backup apps from ritesh sahu.
I use them to backup my data before flashing.

I have the same problem too when I imported/restored about 150 old messages. Did you manage somehow to get rid of the problem? On my phone it's only some contacts where only the number is shown and not connected to a contact. This problem started for me when changing to the jm firmware line. For the jf and jg firmwares this problem does not appear.
Strangely, handcent sms has no problem with the sms/contacts. Therefore, this has to be a bug in the samsung sms application, not in our data.

Touch phone number to dial doesn't launch dialer

I'm having an issue with being able to touch to dial a phone number listed as text in an email or web browser. When I try to tap a phone number, it doesn't launch the dialer. I have not had this issue on any other Android device. I am stock rooted.
Anyone else have this problem?
Thanks!

I'm disgusted that you haven't gotten a response.
I try to set hangouts dialer as my default dialer, and select "use always" and the next time I click a phone number link in chrome or slide from the bottom of the lock screen to go straight to the dialer, it asks me again what dialer I want to use -- lollipop refuses to remember my selection, this happens on every lollipop and nexus 6 device, not just mine or yours, people are either just lazy, stupid, or don't file bug reports(FOI I filed it), and I've made the android team aware of the issue through email -- no action has been taken yet this was over a week ago.
Setting hangouts dialer to always(and failing), and opening a contact from the contacts app opens the AOSP dialer, further more.
I'm sure it's related to your issue.

MMS Issue + Invalid Recipient Issue

Has anyone noticed an oddness with the stock messaging app on the P9?
When I send out a group message, say to 2 or 3 of my friends. When they reply to the message, their messages come separate as individual messages and not show up in the original message thread that was sent.
I had the EVA-10(Chinese dual sim 64gb) but got rid of that and got the L09 Int'l Unlocked single sim version. Both are doing the same thing.
Just wanted to see if anyone knows if there is a solution to fix this?
Also, I didn't have this issue on the Chinese version but I am having it on this Int'l Unlocked version. The stock messaging app is giving me this error when I want to text someone. 3rd party apps work but the stock is not allowing me to text people within the app. If I go under contacts and choose to send a text through the contacts app with the default messaging app, it works just fine but it won't work from the messaging app directly. Really odd.
Thanks

Huawei P9 stock SMS app issues - need group MMS fix
I confirm having the same issue with the unlocked international (EVA-L09) version of the Huawei P9.
You can fix the texting individual people by reformatting your contact numbers into appropriate international format with Playstore app "Twitch 2.0". That worked great for me and avoided the need for any root access.
I still need a fix for the group MMS issue. All me sends to/from a group always come through individually.
Hope we find a fix!!

Yes I noticed the invalid number issue had something to do with only US numbers. Every int'l number I had in my contacts would work just fine. All I had to do was to put a +1 in front of the US people and that fixed the issue but like you said no solution for the MMS issue at the moment. I am hoping with @paulobrien getting a ROM out soon, we might get our issue resolved. I will shoot a tweet out to Huawei too but doubt they will even respond.

Any update on this issue? I'm experiencing the same problem and was hoping someone had figured it out by now.

I know this is an old thread, but was hoping someone found a fix for the group MMS issue? I have a P10 and the same thing is happening. Huawei support was no help.

default sms app unable to recognize saved contacts

Is it a bug or a feature that default sms app is unable to resolve number saved without country code But when the sms arrives it has country code.
If it's the intended behavior then I haven't seen more lazy development for a default sms app than this

Good question, Google Android Messages app which I've used since Android 6 doesn't act like that, so it must be a feature ?

Google Dialer app's contacts keep duplicating.

I bought a Moto G6 back in June of 2020 and it's working great. I currently am running stock Android 9. However there is one thing that is bugging me. The Google Dialer app's contact's keep duplicating. It doesn't happen in Google contacts though. It's exclusively in the Google Dialer app. I've updated the app to the latest version (v55.1.335513515), but the issue still persists. I don't believe this issue is related to the phone, or the OS, but I am not sure. So far, I have force stopped the Google Dialer app, and cleared both the storage and cache options; but it doesn't seem to remedy the problem. Since I cannot provide a screenshot showing the actual issue (I don't want to put any personal info of my contacts for obvious reasons) I will show an example of the issue here in text. My contact list in Google Dialer looks like...
Contact 1
Contact 2
Contact 2
Contact 2
Contact 2
Contact 3
Contact 4
Contact 4
Contact 4
Contact 4
Contact 4
Contact 4
Contact 5​If there is a solution to this problem, please let me know.
Thank you.

Hmmmm. I think this might be a sync related issue. I downloaded Simple Dialer and ran into the same exact problem with the contact list within the app.
