Contacts all screwey after new rom

[fmfisdead]

So I installed the 6.1 rom for the mogul and after I did this i used sprite backup to restore my contacts and email info. It has the contacts in there but for some reason when I try to search by letter it doesn't find anything and as well when I receive text messages it doesn't show the persons name anymore just their number.

I couldn't really think of anything, any ideas?

i can't help you solve your problem but i have a suggestion. next time use pimbackup to backup your contacts, texts, call logs, etc. it's the best there is just in case something like this happens again

Yeah I guess its more of a hassle than anything else because I have the numbers they just arent showing up right for some reason, so in reality i could just go through and enter them all again.

how did you get the contacts there after the restore after flashing?

i use none of those programs that's why i use either MS outlook or mail2web easy as 1 2 3

I used sprite back up to get them back on the phone after the new rom. It puts them on but then if I try and go in and edit any contacts or search for them via pushing like M to go to all M's on the default contacts program it doesn't find anything and when I try to save what I edited I get an error. So I'm thinking about just writing them all down and hard resetting.

thats your problem your restoring registry along with that from an old rom to a new one..... do a hard reset and than enter them manually than save them using pimbackup so you wont have to worry bout it again....
