I had two numbers for one of my contacts and I deleted one because it's no longer in use. But why does it appear when I type in the name (when starting a new message) with the word "other" next to it?

Question

And how do it delete that "other" number entirely from my phone? I've tried deleteing the contact and adding it in again, but it still appears
Also, on an unrelated note, my phone tends to turn off at 10-7 percent. How can I fix this so it turns off after 1 percent? (the phone doesn't turn on after it turns off by itself unless you charge it)

Answer 1

1. Don't wait until your phone completely discharges before charging the battery. To help with the battery percentage reset your phone. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.
2. The phone remembers recently used items in addition to stored items. So the contact you want to delete is presently in the recently used category. If that phone number is not used it will eventually disappear from your phone. Patience IDs the key here.
