[Q] Contact names not showing when writting new SMS - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a HTC Desire with BCM RC4.1U2 ROM installed. I have just flashed it and everything works OK, except the Messenger app. When i want to send a new SMS and start typing the name of the recipent, the Contact names dont appear. They only appear if i write telephone numbers, and even then not all appear (but just some..).
I have no idea what could be wrong. I sync all my contacts with Google sync and had no problems on previous ROM (MIUI AU).
Thank you for help

[Q] Creating CSV file question

Hey guys,
im having a weird issue with my desire....
i have 336 contacts on my phone, in which i had transferred from my previous device... i realize for google to sync my contacts i need to create a csv file, or export the contacts from my phone to sd, and then load the file in gmail for the contacts to show up.
my problem is this....
i can SEE the contacts in the people application, but when i hit menu and "view" it doesnt show anything in parenthesis.. for example
it would say :
Sim contacts (1)
Gmail contacts (0)
Phone contacts (0)
although i have 336 contacts in which i can see in the people view.
is this a known issue? i just want to create a backup and load it to my gmail account in case i lose my phone i dont want to lose my contacts.
Any help would be GREAT!
my phone is NOT rooted, im running 2.1
no one else having this issue???
Im a noob at this so not sure if this is correct but this is what i did to put all my contacts on gmail
imported all contacts onto sd
transfered from sd to pc
transfered from pc to gmail
so i have now 3 backups for my contacts, just incase
again not sure if this is your answer or the correct way but enough saves not to lose them

[Q] contacts and calendar sync problem

hi all
i am making a new thread but i searched forum couldnt find anything or maybe i missed it.
so i have debranded Desire 2.10.405.2, on PC(win7 32-bit) i have both HTC sync 3 and the old version HTC sync. i am closing the other when i am using one.

[Q] Contacts not updating to Exchange [Solved: See Solution in first post]

Hi,
I have a problem.
My contacts are not updating to Exchange.
When I add a new contact via the phone (selecting the exchange account) it does not get updated to the exchange contacts. Any ideas what I would be doing wrong?
My Sync is on, background data is on.
System specs:
I am running MIUI Rom (v22) but had the same problem with opendesire before I switched. Now using Cyanogen, ROM version does not matter
Email.apk version: 2.2
Contacts version: 2.2
Now Solved:
Possible Reason: Changed ROMs too many times
Solution requirements: Exchange 2007 with Owa and internet explorer then you can do it yourself else you need to get your IT guy to do this.
Solution:
a. Go to OWA (in IE) and delete all instances of your android device from there under the mobile devices tab.
b. remove your exchange account from phone and add it again.
To test:
c. Add new contact,
d. disable sync and re-enable for exchange account from accounts screen.
repeat step D if contact doesn't get updated.
Any ideas guys???
Use the search ... there must be an topic with the same problem ... there is an link to an stock e-mail app whitch should work.
hi philj,
i only asked the question after i scoured the forum and google for about 2 hrs
I'll try and replace the email.apk and see if that helps
So I changed Roms, went to Cyanogen mod new RC.
My google account syncs two way perfectly not exchange.
Using touchdown doesn't help because you can't add contacts to it with either CAM card or from the accounts application.
