Nokia 5230 - Issues in adding Contacts to message

Question

Hii,
I bought a new Nokia 5230 and transferred all the data(contacts, messages etc) from my previous phone. I am facing some issues to send message. 
When I add a contact from my phone book to the 'To' field, the contact is not getting added.
That is, I opened New Message option and clicked on 'To' or the contact button on the bottom, I get Contact list. But if I select any contact from the list, the list gets closed and no contacts get added to the To field.
I can send message by entering the number directly or by going to Contact list from the home screen-> Select the contact -> Select Message option.
I had issues in getting message, but it worked after restarting the phone. I have some other applications which lists the contacts list, but the application crashes if I select the contact detail.
I am using the latest version OS.
Please help me.
Thanks,
Arun

Answer 1

if you are using another apps for contact list, may be conflicting with native phone's contact list app.
Remove that app and see if there is any improvement
