This is a general question that has bothered me since my note 2 (still there on my s6 edge) ... I have my contacts sorted by first name but when I search a name the sort order doesn't reflect that... i.e. I have a contact named "RO" ... when I search "RO", he appears 30 contacts down the list... same with "DEB" ... etc... Is there a fix for this?
Is there any way to change the order of how the stock S6 Edge dialer displays contacts when they are calling?
I have contacts from different parts of the world with REALLY long names and the last names usually are not displayed when the person is calling.
So, basically, I want stock dialer to display Last name first and then First name. I managed to change the view in the Contacts app, but not in the dialer...
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hi guys,
Bought a A2 Lite yesterday and on the dial contacts I can't find the option of "Contacts to display" like I'm used to find in all android phones, and also working on Xiaomi A1/A2.

Where is the option? On the google contacts app I can choose on my left dashboard to show only some contacts, but it doesn't affect the contacts showing on the dial app
Both dialer and contacts are standard Google apps. Perhaps you are used to some other vendor's apps? You can get alternatives from the play store.
Google Dialer has favourites, which is a subset of contacts you select (plus recent contacts you've called). That sounds like what you are describing?
Do you have a A2 Lite to see this issue?
I know they're Google apps but it should have a "Contacts do display" option, as present on A1/A2 phones. Adding to the Favorite list one by one (I have about 250 contacts that I need to add) is insane!! Or can we select several contacts to the Favorite List at once? (can't find it)

Yes. I have the latest stock pie. The dialer and contacts apps have had many, many updates since I got the phone. I couldn't tell you if the feature was previously present or not.
If you have labels in contacts there's a choice to customize view and select a label. Maybe that's what happened to the feature?
I'm also on Pie (latest update) and have labels on my Google contacts (I have a label created for the SIM contacts that I usually use on my android phones). As I said, I can select to show only that label on the "Contacts" but not on the "Dial contacts"
In Miui 11.0.4 we got this very bad and ugly google contact app. I installed another app got my contacts in there and it is working fine BUT. other apps that need my contacts can not find them because they are connected to the default google contact app. How can i change that?
I know that i can change default app in manage apps and three dots menu. Problem is that there is no contact app to change.
