[ICS ROM Problem] [Help me?] Contacts FC - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Ok I downloaded FB21 via pc then moved it to the SD card. I wiped all and used Calks format all.zip then flashed the ROM booted all was well with contacts and dialer. Never restored my app never installed an app. Then i signed into google via the market after my contacts sync that seems to be when the problem creeps up (problem being freezing and fcing of contacts and dialer on any ICS rom after my contacts are synced) Also note relative to problem is SMS GO pro cant pull in my contacts. Tried using it as a contacts replacement.

Gmail contacts not showing on my phone

I can't see my contacts in the Phone or Contacts app. They are stored on my Gmail account in groups. If I go to dial a number from memory I'll see the contacts picture so it leads me to believe that they are on the phone but not displaying in the apps.
I did a nandroid backup and the problem is still there. The problem started when I tried to flash Myn's rom with the CW that supposedly works 2.6.X.X. It still didn't work and just hung at the splash screen. I pulled the battery and did a nand restore back to my AOSP ROM and I run into this.

Help with Titanium Backup

I have a backup of my Gingerbread version (2.3.3) working fine.
Yesterday, I finally found a Brazilian firmware to my I9000 and tried to test it.
Now, I'm using the Froyo version (2.2.1) downloaded from Kies and I'm having a problem to restore some files.
All my games and apps from Market are restored without any problem.
When I try to restore my contacts I get the message: Google Services Framework (process com.google.process.gapps) has stopped.
The process android.process.acore has stopped.
I have to FC them and it enters in this looping.
I tried to restore only the data (the green ones) without any luck.
I tried all kind of settings in the TB, but without success.
What can I do ?
Thanks a lot.
Factory reset first .

Thanks, but I already tried it before posting.
This problems seems to be related with Google Account Sync.
I'm not sure that restoring from a newer version to an older one will work.
Personally I never restore system data and settings with TB (except the sms storage), only applications. I believe that it is more safe to do the basic configurations manually than restore it from backup.
I use my Google accounts to store the contacts, they sync without issues.
Restoring system data like that never works well via Titanium.
I would go back into recovery, clear cache and dalvik, then do a factory reset.
Go back to Titanium, restore the apps you wish WITHOUT data. Then sync your gmail to get your contacts back.
Create a google account just for the contacts and calendar, thats what I did...
Thanks a lot for the tips.
I tried all these tips but didn't work.
I had to restore only my programs and games from market and imported my contacts from my sim card.
As always happens, I had to edit every contact, because the first name always is in the last name field and even having the option to not show the contacts from sim card, I the same contacts twice in the list and had to del them.
The worst problem was after restoring my programs and games from market. They are working fine, but market can't identify them as a file already downloaded.
I tried to use the Market Doctor option but it didn't work.
I had to download them again from market.I think it happens because I'm not using an English version anymore.
At least after trying a lot, I'm using a Brazilian firmware downloaded from Kies.
No more problem of running a program with Brazilian language, but as the firmware was in English, these programs run in English language too.

[Q] Sync error with google contacts

Hi, I have recently flashed my Desire with Gingerbread and I'm having problems with syncing my contacts (people) with my google account.
Before I did the flash I backed up my contacts onto the SD card. I then did the flash and set up my phone with my gmail account. I then restored my contacts from the wrong file on my SD card (a much earlier backup). When I realised that it was the wrong file I erased my contacts and recovered the right file. Now google won't sync my contacts, it just says "Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly." I tried to remove the google account, but it won't let me as it is 'required by some applications'
Any suggestions on what i could do to fix this (apart from a full reset)
Import ALL your concats to googlemail directly, e.g. via webinterface. Then go to Settings>Applications>Manage Applications>All, scroll to contacs app, clean its data and cache. Then sync again. Should work.
Thanks that seemed to have worked
Don't forget to use the thanks button.

Ok I think I've done it right lol!

Importing contacts from GB to ICS

Hello so I'm running into a bit of an issue. I recently upgraded from Juggs 5.0 GB to Darkside Evolution ICS
I have flashed for quite some time and haven't had any major issues.
Today I noticed my google contacts were not fully synced. (I found out when I went to text someone and noticed their number wasn't in my phone anymore)
I did a titanium backup and an nand backup is there anyway to extract the contacts or sms/mms from the backups?
I looked it up and there doesn't seem to be an actual answer everyone just replies 'sync with google'
any help would be appreciated I really don't want to have to restore back to jugs exports my contacts to a vcf or whatever it is it saves contacts as and then re-flash it back
Restore your nandroid backup and then delete your contacts from your Google account .before doing so, copy all your contacts to your SIM card or SD card. Flash the ICS from again and add your contacts from the SIM or SD and Google should back them up correctly

Why not just go to a computer and input your contacts directly to your gmail account. That way you won't have to worry about going back an forth on a SIM or any other storage device.

[Q] Contacts app - any ways to fix?

Background: Rooted phone w/stock image with injected root.
Applied latest OTA (UVDLJC), then recovered root using Voodoo OTA RootKeeper (worked just fine), but noticed contacts not displaying ... well ... any contacts at times. Leaving it up for a while, it would come up with an error (crashed). Rebooting the phone would make all contacts available, again, but only temporarily, then the app won't display them, and back to the crash.
Re-did the UVDLJC (thank you mrRobinson http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1771687), this time directly using the newly uploaded injected root image, but the contacts app still behaves the same way.
While the app is malfunctioning, all incoming calls have no contact identified.
I also installed GO Contacts, but the behavior is the same (not depicting, than crashing) - I assume because somehow this app is using the original contacts "under the hood"?!?
Any suggestions?!? Is there a specific area I could redo, to recover contacts?
TIA,
Stefan
Solution...
I've been mucking with my contacts, merging different sources, restoring backups, using external editors, etc. I've found that a reboot fixes edit changes. Once my contacts are correct then my messaging and call logs show names rather than numbers.
Try wiping Contacts and Contacts Storage.
wiping data, freeze-then-thaw via Titanium Backup Pro - to no avail

Tried wiping data, to no avail. It just works for a while, then all of a sudden there are no contacts in the list, and the calls - of course - show no IDs/names. Only reboots seem to temporarily fix the problem, but the issue comes up again, shortly thereafter.
I wonder if there is a way to REINSTALL only the contacts app. I tried to freeze the contacts and contacts storage, then "thaw" them via Titanium Backup Pro, but that did not fix the issue, either. I assume that by removing them via TBPro, and then restoring them, it would end up - if the root cause if some sort of corruption in the app(s) - in the same place I am right now.
