[Q] Contact List Identification

On my old phone S4 mini Duos, the displayed contacts are identified by different icons: SIM1, SIM2, Device and Whatsapp. I keep domestic numbers on SIM1 and overseas numbers on SIM2. I will also keep country code prefixed domestic numbers on SIM2 such that I need not manually add the country code to make calls when I am travelling.

But on S6 this feature is gone. All contacts are sorted alphabetically and there is no SIM or device icons to identify which one is prefixed and which one is not.

Now I can only choose the option to display only SIM2 contacts when travelling and SIM1 on returning home. I appreciate any ideas to help me regain the display method on my old phone.

Messager's name not displayed even when sender is entered as contact.

Why do some messages not have contacts' names on them, just phone number that they were sent from, even though they are entered as contacts?

quick contact showing two duplicate mobile numbers

Many of my contacts contain just one phone number, their mobile. Then WhatsApp identifies them and adds its own contact. These two contacts are merged and when viewing the contact I see only one number, as expected. However, apparently internally the G3 lists the contact as having 2 duplicate numbers. This confuses apps that try to automatically choose a default number to call (specifically, Conigri contacts widget). I can also see this in the quick contact popup. The contact shows with two entries of the same number. I can't work around this by choosing one of these as the default, because the contact details show just a single number. I tried to remove the number, which initially works as the WhatsApp number becomes the default, but then WhatsApp syncs, sees the contact no longer has a number and deletes its contact entry leaving me with a contact with no number.

Note that I previously had a Galaxy S5 and had no such problem there (so it is not a basic Android problem I guess).

I tried googling for the issue, but couldn't find it. How can I solve this?

requesting contact apk for Honor 4x (CHE2-UL00)

Hi everybody,

In my hnor 4x (CHE2-UL00), i can't put prefix or suffix when i save contact.
and also i can't write contact into "first, middle or last name".

SERIOUS PROBLEM: Google Contacts Sync generates xxx amount copy of each contact!

Hi all.

My set-up: LG G4, Lollipop 5.1, not rooted.
Google Account, Outlook.com, LinkedIn, Skype etc.

The proplem is that during my night-time, Google Contacts Sync starts syncing my contacts (to somewhere; the are NOT visible in my Google account) generating xxx copies of each contact. I have no exact timeline when this has started to realize, but by using Simpler Contacts 5.0.2 (paid version) I was able to clean that horrible mess (took overall ~5 hours with 55.000+ contacts).

Currently I have disabled all contacts syncing.

So should I:

1) Copy all my contacts to Google (already exported cleaned .vcf to my SD card) and import that to Google account?
2) Do something else, what?

What an earth is causing that!?!?

Much appreciated.

BR,
Timo
