Hi.
I have Lollipop stock on my nexus 5 and i'm having a problem with my contact list displaying on my car system. The list appears with the last name first. Exemple: On my phone´s contact list i have Bill Gates but on my car it appears Gates Bill, as with all other contacts.
This only happens on Lollipop. On KitKat i didn't have this problem.
Any idea how to solve this?
I have the exact same problem. Nexus 5 on 5.1.1 and Mazda 6 2013. It's really annoying!
Anyone knows if there's an option or hack to force the contacts to appear if order (First Name - Last Name) ?

Hi, I am running an Android Nexus 5 updated to version 5.1 (LMY47I), and have an issue with the syncing of my phonebook to an Acura TLX. When I sync the contacts they are ordered and show LASTNAME, FIRSTNAME in the car even though the phone is set up to Firstname Lastname. When I was on 5.0.1 the contacts imported as FRISTNAME LASTNAME, but since updating to 5.1 and resyncing with the car, the import goes to the 'last, first' ordering even though the phone is set as first last. I have also changed the setting on my Nexus to show Last, First and back to First Last and it always syncs as ‘Last, First’ to the vehicle.
Also, I have called Acura client relations and was transferred to technical support. They stated that the contacts are pulled directly from how they are stored on the phone and sorting is not an option on the TLX.
At this time I believe it is possibly an issue with Android 5.1. Has anyone experienced the same or found a solution?
(Also, this issue applies to build LMY47D and LMY47I, but not 5.0.1 (LRX22C)).
Thanks!
I'm on that build and it's fine. Mines first, last, as set.

Good to hear it is working for some.
I have posted this topic on the another forum (for the car) and others have stated they are having the same issue with the Nexus 5 and the Nexus 6 on 5.1.
I have tried installing the stock image of 5.1, and also upgrading via the OTA from 5.0.1, either way the contacts display as Last, First once at 5.1.
In my testing I went going back to stock 5.0.1, synced with the car and the contacts did show correctly as First Last name, but as soon as I did the OTA to 5.1 it automatically resynced the contacts to the Last, First ordering.
Again the car manufacturer says the issue is not on their end, but not quite sure who to believe...
From what you u say it's obvious that the car is to blame.

Hi, I have just found out that it is also happening on another phone (LG G2) so I suspect it is do do with google contacts (perhaps the new contacts they have out). I have therefore asked the question in the Android section http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help/google-contacts-repeatedly-download-25-t3114949. I wanted to delete this but do not know how. If somebody can, then please do so.
Hi,
I have been searching for a solution to this without luck. I have found others reporting more or less the same problem, but no solutions.
The manifestation of the problem means that I can not add new contacts. If I add one it stays there for a little while (until the next google account sync I suspect). I tried contacts sync fix and it told me there were 25,000 contacts. This, it seems is the limit in Android. However, checing on my google account I only have 902. Given that the limit has been reached I guess it is fair enough that it will not store new contacts.
However, I do not know why it keeps on downloading my contacts (or at least until the limit has been reached). I have reset the phone, but from the "backup and reset' menu in settings and now also from recovery (Cyanogen, the standard one), where I have wiped the cache too. All in vain.
I am not installing any apps at all except those that comes with Cyanogen.
I am running:
Cyanogen 12.0-YNG1TAS17L
Androdi: 5.0.2
Baseband is DI.3.0.c6.00230 and then a long sequence
Kernel is 3.4.67 from April 21
Build is LRX22G
I am 90% sure the problem was not there under CM 11.
Anybody got a solution or suggestions? It seems very strange to me that I am the (almost) only one having this problem
Thanks in advance.

I am on the 3 network here in the UK ,I have owned a Oneplus 1 2 and 3 and had no problems. However on my OnePlus 6 when I receive a call from someone in my Google contacts I get the message unknown caller
Oxygen 5.1.11
patch July 2018
Build ONEPLUS A6003_22_180810
Have you checked the settings in the contact manager? Check if "contacts to display" is set to all
Hi thanks, just tried that, and even switched it off and on again but it's still the same.
You're going to have file a feedback/bug report with OP, I've seen many postings with the same exact problem. I think it goes back to all the problems with the dialer itself.
You could also download a different dialer and see if the problem persist. Keep in mind because of the way they've done the call settings the new dialer may not be able to see all the settings. Don't use Truecaller, that has its own issues and I'm not a fan of their what info they collect.
Make sure in settings under apps the permissions are all checked.
after updating my phone to android 9, on gear s3 instead of the caller name/phone number it appears this message "invalid utf 8". after ending the call on the phone log it is written the name/number, but not when i am called. with other phones, having android 8, i don't have this error. also on my phone (nokia 5) i didn't have this error before update. I have reset both my watch and my phone, updated from tizen 3 to 4 but i still have this issue. any ideas? gear s3 is bluetooth.
Nálam is ez a probléma. Ha sikerült megoldani a problémát kérlek írd meg nekem, hogy mit tegyek. email címem: [email protected]
köszönöm!
I have exactly the same problem. My phone's Nokia 6.
Yeah
Same issue over here ??????
Anyone able to come up with a solution for this? I'm facing the exact same issue and not sure how to get it to work. I had some luck a few days ago when my S3 battery was low and I had to put it on Battery saver mode. During this time I was able to see the caller name on my watch, however I was not able to replicate this later.
HI guys
Hope all are well.
I have a strange issue on the WATCH 4 latest update.
When someone phones me (Via the phone with watch connected) The contact name for the number displaying is incorrect. ON the phone its as its supposed to be.
So its CONTACT A Name + Contact Cs number displaying on the watch?
I tried removing my google account, rebooting, still the same? I dont want to go to re setup.
Is there any fix?
No fix I've seen, known issue Samsung is doing absolutely nothing for it
I do believe it's a long time Samsung ....
Ahhhh man guys. Not the best news lol. I thought it was something funny on my end....
