Contact not showing when recieving SMS or calls. - HTC Sensation

Can someone plz help. Im running the latest coredroid and just recently deleted my entire contect list by mistake. And i hadnt backup'd it. Now Ive got all contacts back and spent several hours adding them in again. I dont like synking with google, facebook or any of that so i havent. But now every time i get a sms or a call, all it shows is the phone number and the blue android as photo, even if i got photo on most of my contacts. Why isnt it showing the info from the contact list.
Thanks.

[Resolved] Matched contact suggestion keeps popping up with same contacts

Dear all,
I have some contacts in google as well as in my Whatsapp account. Froyo automatically detects duplicates and suggests contact matches.
This is fantastic! I've checked the duplicates and then linked the Whatsapp contacts.
Pretty annoying is that it keeps notifying me of contact matches of the same contacts that I've already linked before!
I've linked them more than once and even have tried to ignore them, but nothing helped and the same contact matches keeps coming back again and again...
Does anyone had the same problem before or (even better) has a solution?

How do you manage to resolve this?
For some reason the same two WhatsApp contacts repeatedly appear in the matched contact suggestion list.
Thanks
I've got the same problem. I updated WhatsApp today, so maybe that caused the problem?
Same with my HTC Desire HD. Uninstalled and reinstalled Whatsapp but the problem still exists... I am leaning towards the update as well.
This is super annoying, has it been resolved? I constantly have tried just about everyting from linking all (i think its been a hundred times already) to dismiss all, to clear notification and it just keeps popping up. I also attempted to remove the sync from whatsapp and disable the contacts sync but it keeps activating itself. I am going nuts trying to make it stop annoying me, is there any resolution?
It constantly says i have 22 matched contact suggestions. Is there an update I dont know about?
Hello,
I have the same problem with my htc desire z.
Please say how it has been resolved, because it's really annoying
I got email from whatsapp last night confirming the problem saying it would be fixed on next update very soon . There was an update this morning to the app so I'm hoping the fix was in there.

I installed the update, but now my two repeating contacts have become 58, so from bad to worse!!

Try linking them and then see if it goes away. I have not seen the notification come up for me since the update though I linked right before I saw there was an update

The problem still exists after the update. Now it finds more contacts than before. Pretty annoying. I love WhatsApp, it's the best way to keep in contact with my iPhone friends. Bummer.
Yep, its still happening here, but in my experience it is the exact same number as before, i always had 22-23 and I have noticed that now its popping up Much less often, once today since updating when before it was just constant. I have sent email to the whatsapp feedback team letting them know its not fully fixed yet.
just updates whataspp a few minutes ago, the bug is gone now.
Yep, its gone!

I think I have the same problem, but uninstalling and installing again does not fix the problem. Any updates here?
Still happening me too (Desire HD) - in fact it's gotten noticably worse in recent weeks. Plus it seems to nag more often than it used to too. Also it tries to match people who are totally unrelated - I don't understand that at all. Like many people, I'm starting to think that, what seemed to be a cool feature, is now becoming a pain in the neck.
One thing I did notice is that if you have any Skype contact requests that you haven't accepted or blocked yet, it will keep nagging you about those. Of course, it should ignore contacts that you haven't accepted yet, so that's a bug. But we've already established that there are bugs in this app! At this stage, I'd just like to disable it.
Why is this thread closed?
It is not resolved.
I have the same issue on my HTC Sensation XE (Android 4.0.4 Sense 3.6).
When I first synched my contacts wirelessly from my ActiveSync Corporate email, it kept asking me if I want to link contacts. (800+)
Currently, it is asking me less often but I still have the problem. More specifically with Viber and Tango.
Is it a problem from Tango and Viber. Didnt they fix the bug like whatsapp?
Is it from Android? Sense?
If I check a contact in my address phone book for example, I have a name that got like 6 Viber linked contacts (same number) and I cannot remove them and leave only one. this is polluting the address book.
One more issue is the telephone numbers: if a contact is registered with a code country, his call is not recognized but a sms coming from him is recognized. If I remove the country code, the call will be recognized but not the sms
pretty weird
I agree. I've been having the same problem with viber contacts. Everyday once or twice I have a bunch of contacts, that I have already matched, suggested for matching. It's really annoying and I am considering uninstalling Viber for this reason. Did anyone find a solution?
Thanks
Same here on htc chacha, viber keep prompting contacts to link and for one of the contacts I have 8 linked viber for the same number.

[Q] Phone automatically restores SMS - How to stop it?

Hi,
I got my Sensation a couple of days ago.
As I set it up, I choosed to sync with my google account (of cause), as I had a Desire before this.
Only thing I backed up/restored with MyBackup Pro was Bookmarks.
But.. The phone has now for the last 2 days (as long as I've had it) been restoring SMS, and I can't find a way to stop it, and really I've got threads over 6-7000 msgs, so I really want to "start over" - Everytime I delete the threads and I look at the phone 5 mins later, they are partly restored again.
So, how do I stop this? Is there a way to delete the treads from the cloud or something? I looked in my Google account, but I only see the contacts and the usual stuff there.
Thanks in advance
You only log in to google. Not htc sense account

Okay, and how do I do it if I do not want to lose my HTC Hub and so on?
If only I could delete it or choose not to sync just that..
EDIT:
Oh.. Sync HTC Sense is an option, so is HTC Hub.. Well, we'll see if this helps, tried disabling HTC Sense sync
It didn't work.. It's still syncing

[Q] Can't receive calls when phone is locked (Sense 3.0)

Hi guys
My girlfriend updated her UK unrooted stock O2 Desire S with the OTA update yesterday with no problems. However, since then, she has not been able to receive calls when the phone is in a locked state.
When the phone is unlocked, it goes to the screen with buttons at the bottom and is fine (call is answered, taken, hung up, no problem). However, when the phone is locked and the "rings" come up to answer or reject, the call is taken, the phone.android.process (I think) force close, the call is cancelled and signal is lost for a few moments before the phone returns to normal
I have tried pulling the battery and turning off fast boot, neither have helped.
Just wondering if anyone else has had these issues, and if so, is there a fix?
Cheers

go to the market and download and install the app called "no lock" this will disable the lockscreen.
although i do not know the main cause for your issue, this will be a temporary fix until you manage to sort it properlly
my friend has a similar problem,but only with one contact calling him - me
he added fb account (I left my number on my fb account) ,fb for htc account(both)
to his phone,so after mergin my 3 contact details or even 4,when I call him his phone goes FC,out of network,sd preparing etc,etc..so I just unlinked FB(only FB not FB for htc) from other contact details and thing sorted out. its a shot in the dark,but try something like this.
I have the same issue on my Desire S. Although my error message is "com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly".
I am then forced to enter my 4-digit pincode for the SIM card.
So far I also think it is only when one person is calling me (he has a Legend, other frequent callers are Samsung old one, and Iphone 4, if it makes a difference).

Thanks for the suggestion - I have now removed my phone number from my FB account, and unlinked my friend from syncing with FB in the contacts. I'll have him call me tomorrow to see if it works.
I'll let you know.

[Q] Popup message "Sending".....

Hi All,
Does anyone get a message on the Phone (seemingly on any ROM), with the word "Sending..." at the bottom of the screen? Phone is a Sensation (Not XE)
This happens (or is noticed more) when I do a factory reset, and even before I can add a wifi point, or even before I add the Google account I get a pop-up message saying "Sending..."
I'm currently on a Funzy ROM, but even using other's (Elegancia, InsertCoin, Energy, Doesn't matter using either ICS or Gingerbread) I still get the pop-up message saying "Sending...". See screenshot attached.
Does anyone know what this is referring too since I don't have an email account setup at this point?
Rgds
Tony
I get this message aswell, it seems to happen to me when i change sd card or go through settings.
im feeling paranoid about what its sending, maybe its automated error reports
maybe its collected information about me being send to developers or andriods headquarters
but whatever it is there must be a setting to way to disable it.
I also have this before. What I did was to format all partitions including sd card and reinstalled a fresh rom.
Do a backup of your items first.

I have been getting the same message on my Samsung S3. Can't fund much information anywhere about it but I think it maybe the email program. Are you running exchange active sync?
I have turned off the email check frequent on my Gmail account to see if that stops it. I will let you know what I find out.

[Q] monitoring app for rooted phone

I rooted my phone and my wife's. She's been hiding things and deleting messages and sending off pics of herflself and deleting them. I tried using a recovery app. But is there something that I can install on her phone that's will stay hidden so I can monitor what it is she is up to? Something that will save the text logs and pictures. Or activate her front facing camera. GPS... I want to make sure I have all the evidence I would need to confront her. This happened in the past as well and I didn't have enough proof. She played it off like I was the crazy one.
I've searched but figured some experts would point me in the right direction. Hoping to save my marrage before its too late.
Thanks.
Well for finding old picrures, theres diskdigger app. Uhm... Besides that, idk
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk
I used dr phone and it took so long and it kept showing all the current pics and not just the deleted ones . wasn't until I used discdigger that I found what I was looking for. but being the free version it didn't search for much. and hard to view everything ion the little screen, and it requires me to have her phone for long periods of time.
I know there has to be something out there I can install once and get the info sent to my phone or pc.
since I only have small windows of time to have her phone(when shes sleeping) I practice on my phone. install what apps I wanty to use and try them so I know what it is im doing when I get the chance.
a keylogger would be a start but I want to know what texts are coming in as well.
I'm not sure if this is what you are looking for, but recently when my phone broke and I still had to text people; I went to the Verizon wireless website, under 'My Verizon' is a tab called 'Send a message', enter your wife's phone number followed by her account password, and then it should be empty if this is the first time opening this. From here you can send and receive messages. After your initial login, all messages will be stored. It shows deleted as well. Finally, if you do happen to send a text from this online, sent messages will not show on her phone. Beware as she will still receive the incoming texts.
-Hope this helped! Good luck with your searching
