DROID X CONTACT LIST

My DROID X sorts my contact list by first name.  Can anyone tell me is there is a "sort by last name" option and how to do it.
Thanks

  • Transfer Facebook contact photos to Droid Maxx contact list

    My phone and Facebook are in Sync as far as sharing pictures, etc.  However, I can't figure out how to get my facebook friend pictures to post to my Droid Maxx contact list.  Anyone know how to do this?

        I know its important to have your pictures display on your social media sites and your contact list drdobbs83. You can try the steps below to help with this option.
      • From a home screen, select People (located at the bottom).
    If unavailable, navigate: Apps > People .
      • From the Groups tab, select the group to display.
    Below is another set of steps using the contacts application.
    The Contacts application uses an intelligent merge feature to combine contact information from various sources (Gmail, Microsoft® Exchange, Facebook, new entries, etc.). If contact information was joined in error, the information can be separated back into individual contacts.
      • From a home screen, select People (located at the bottom).
    If unavailable, navigate: Apps > People 
      • From the All contacts tab (located at the top), select a contact.
      • Select Menu (located in the upper right).
      • Select Edit.
      • Select Menu .
      • Select Join or separate
    Please keep us posted.

  • How to add company name to show up in contact list with person's name on Droid

    I just switched from the Blackberry Storm to the Motorola Droid.  Is there a way to have the company name show up in the contact list under the person's name.  I need that for work.  It syncs up with a program called Act by Sage and my storm used to show both.

    You can edit your contacts, and list the company name under the organization section. However, it will not show up when they call you. You will only be able to see it in your contact list. Hope this helps!

  • No contacts listed in Voice Dial- Droid Pro

    About half the time that I try to use my Voice Dialing on my Droid Pro the phone displays the message 'No valid names in contact list'. This seems to happen for no reason. It might work fine for a couple days and then stop working. There are over 200 names in my contact list. Is there a cause and solution?

    Got this from someone quite helpful on another forum and it helped me.  Hopefully it will help anyone else out there as well.
    If you've updated your Pro with the OTA update that came out a couple of weeks ago that should have also included an update/improvements to the Voice Commands app. If you haven't already done so, on the main menu of your phone go to Settings>About Phone>System Updates and allow the OS update...
    First thing I noticed was that the Voice Commands app icon changed after installing the Pro OS update....since the update I have not had any problems with the VC app...prior to that the app would work fine for a while then it said it could not recognize any of the commands I was saying...
    Hopefully the update will solve the "valid contacts" issue that you and others have experienced...

  • DROID: Contact list touchpad troubles

    My wife and I just bought DROID Incredibles, but when using it as a phone the contact list is almost unusable.  If you try to scroll through the contacts and touch the screen wrong, then it will automatically dial whoever is unlucky enough to be under your finger at the moment.  As fast as we press "End Call" we've gotten a number of calls back from people wondering what we wanted.  Is there a way for us fat fingered people to stop the autodial completely and just have it fill in the number so we can press "Call" ourselves later? 

    if you open the "people" app (i put it on my home page to use easily), it will not do this. you can scroll, then touch the contact, and it will just open it up. you then touch the number you want to call (home or cell). or (what i do) is begin to type the name of the contact on the phone dialer keypad. it will narrow down selections as you type the 2nd and 3rd letter (in a drop down type of menu) so if you type "a" "m" "y" then any "amy" in your contacts will be listed, with both home and cell #'s. you select the one you want to touch from there. but if you just pull up the list from the phone dialer, then yes, as soon as you touch a contact, it will dial it.

  • What happened to my contact list in new iphone OS?

    Yesterday I switched my iPhone 4S from 5.0.1 to 6.1.3 OS, and my contact list vanished. What happened? Can I get it back? 

    You should check the DROID Incredible 2 by HTC section to see if there are similar discussions.

  • Problem with Facebook status blocking phone numbers in contact list

    Unlike a lot of users, I don't mind that my Facebook contacts merge with my other contacts.  However, I am having a problem with viewing all the information in some of the individual profiles.  It seems that whenever someone updates their FB status, the status posts where the phone number usually is.  The only way to view the phone info for these contacts is to "edit" the entry, then you can see the phone info.  Does anyone know if there is any way to eliminate the status update from the contact information?

    I don't mind seeing their updates, I don't even mind seeing the update on the individual contacts page.   I mind not being able to see the phone number field in my contacts list.  I have a friend that has the original Droid and he stated that the update is at the bottom of the screen, not the top covering the phone number.  Why is it that on a phone with so much "ability" that it has to put the Facebook status field over the phone number?

  • Where should I look to find out how to unmerge and keep separate 2 Contact lists from 2 different iPhones syncing to the same iMac?

    I am a relatively new iMac user (2009), but don't use the computer for much beyond basic communication and media functionality (internet, iTunes, iPhoto, syncing iPhones, etc.).  I have a new iPhone 4S (switched from a Droid) and my wife has an iPhone 4.  When I was using the Droid I was not syncing my contact info or any other information through my iMac.  Once I moved to the 4S and transferred all of my contact information, I set up my Contacts to sync with the iMac, and also set up my wife's iPhone to do the same.  Now we have one master Contact list, so all her Contacts are on my phone, and all mine are on hers.  I don't necessarily want all this extra data on my iPhone.
    Another relevant fact is that my wife uses my iTunes login info for her phone, i.e., for app and music purchases, etc.  I wonder if this may have something to do with it?
    What do I need to do to separate our profiles?  I am happy to do some searching within the community but did not even know where to start.
    Thank you!

    i have 2 separate IDs and also 2 separate itunes library hoping the contacts won't sync and mix together but both libraries only syncs from/to the same address book in my MBP. i cant separate the separate the contacts in the address book unless i manually move our hundreds of of contacts into different groups then sync from only my group....  but thats just too much...  any easier way?

  • Droid 3, contact issues...help!

    Recently, I had to do a master reset on my Droid 3, due to a number of issues. (Let's just hope this solves them!) Anyway, while trying to restore my contacts (ran Backup Assistant and everything else), I have run into two small yet very annoying problems:
    1) When I try to send a text a particular person in my contact list (if it's relevant I have him, my pastor, listed as Pastor in the first name field and Joe in the last name field), the texting app won't pull up his number unless I type Joe first. Is there a way around this? It's worth noting that I had this issue before doing the reset. I can easily go back and use his regular first/last name, but I'd prefer to keep it this way if I can. This issue applies only to this one contact; every other one works, even for entries that aren't people (i.e. my work number)!
    2) I am going through my contacts and linked their phone numbers with their Facebook accounts, so that I can have their FB profile pics displayed in the contact list. I have been successful with all but two of them. Here is the process I have followed: Tap contact's name in list --> tap menu button and choose "edit contact" --> tap menu button again and choose "join" --> choose FB contact from list of suggested contacts. The problem is at this last point no contacts are being suggested, and choosing "all contacts" doesn't help because all it does is show those I have already saved. Again, this has worked for all of my contacts with the exception of these two, and I didn't have this problem before doing the reset. Both of these people have active FB accounts, and are on my friends list. I have my Facebook account set up properly in the Accounts section of my settings, have the FB for Android app downloaded/logged in, and just about every other possible step I can think of completed. Any advice? This is more frustrating than issue #1 above.
    I would greatly appreciate any help that anyone can offer. I realize these are fairly minor issues that I could probably overlook, but I would prefer not to. Thanks in advance!

    1) Very odd, don't know about that one.
    2) Try setting your facebook sync settings to sync all contacts (within the facebook app), give it some time to sync, then do the join process again.  Those particular contacts may not have any similar info (email address, phone number, etc.) so it may not recognize they are the same person (especially if you have a slightly different name for them, like I have my mom listed as "mom", and her facebook profile has her full name).  This should allow you to at least search for them.  After they are joined, you should be able to put it back to sync only existing contacts so that your phonebook isn't full of facebook friends that you are never planning on calling.

  • Unable to search successfully on Company field in a Contact list - SharePoint 2013 online

    When searching for a company in a contact list, I get NO search results when the line items returned should be abundant.
    I am using SharePoint 2013 Online with an Office 365 E3 license. I am the global administrator as well as site collection owner.
    Since Company is an existing site collection column, I went to its managed property in the SharePoint Administration portal. I went to Search > Manage Search Schema > Managed properties and opened CompanyOWSTEXT in order to click the Searchable checkbox.
    All items were grayed out and unable to be edited. The Searchable check box was UNCHECKED.
    Why am I unable to edit that property?
    How can I ensure that the Company field is crawled and can return search results?
