Hey guys. Searches didn't bring up anything I could use. When I flash any 4.4 aosp rom (I don't use sense) most of my phone contacts don't show under hangouts or the contacts app. So if I want to send a text to "mom" I have type in the phone number and oddly enough the name "mom " will appear at the top of the new thread. I tried searching if I need to merge my contacts with Google plus and such. I honestly have no idea what is the problem. Not a bad gapps flash, made sure if that. Help!

Dear
In HTC One Stock Messaging App there is no option to send contact number as SMS it has to send as " VCard" and many devices like Samsung not support this .. can we enable this option as Stock Application.
i know there are many sms applications are available on Paly Store but i want this option in Stock Messaging App.

What android phone actually supports this? IMO, just download the app from the play store. It's going to be a lot faster than decompiling the messaging apk, adding the feature, and doing all that. Not to mention finding someone that knows how to do it.
Hi, some inconvenients with lollipop
Hello, i was a jellybean user for 2 years, i recently got a moto g 2015 lollipop and have some issues, related to the lollipop so i assume this is the right place even if it is for motog 2014.
theres 3 issues i can't figure out,
1) I have to add a goggle account to the android for it to work with everything right? i mean, the PlayStore app and ****.
For that, i have always used a hotmail address ive had for years which is linked to youtube, facebook etc..
But this lollipop, decided to add a single contact entry for each and all of the emails ive emailed with that account.
Its effin annoying. So i deleted all the contacts I didn't want there, and went to settings-accounts and disabled its SYNC
on that hotmail address. I did that yesterday, and today all the email address contacts were added again today. Wtf
I don't want to create a new clean email account just for the android because I do want my youtube subscriptions alerts.
So what to do?
2) On my previous android device, the jellybean, If i want to delete a whole bunch of contacts. I could check a box next to each of a contact, and select a whole lot, then just hit a DELETE button. In lollipop, the only way is to manually go by one by one of the contacts. select contact, select its details, hit delete. thats a 3click process for ONE contact. I mean. wtf are these guys thinking? Is there a workaround for this?
3) Last but not least. Say i got a missing call on the call registry. And i want to send a message either SMS or whatsapp to that number. In jellybean I could hit the send message button and it would ask me if I wanted to SMS or Whatsapp. AND VOILA. write the message to the number and send it.
In lollipop, theres no message button to numbers that aren't in your contact list. WTF .. I have to add that number to contacts. And then, a send text message button appears next to the name but it only works for SMS, no whatsapp. If i want to whatsapp that number, i'd need open whatsapp and search that newly added entry thru 200 contacts.
i mean seriously. what the **** are these developers thinking.
Sorry for rant. Hope someone has some solutions
Thanks in advance.
Hmmmm I completely understand all the issues and they're all kind of related to the Contacts app on STOCK Lollipop ( stock in caps because its just a truth that skinned versions of Android actually do a better job in their respective dialer and contacts apps or at least that's my experience) and what I've personally done to alleviate some of my contacts issues is to use Contacts+ from the play store. It merges all of your contacts with similar traits etc instead of having 5 different contacts for emails that should be grouped to their respective contact. It also has good organization features. I personally have it set to only show contacts with phone numbers. You can play around with the app and see if you like it. Its also a messaging app and a dialer so an all in one app but I prefer to use it as a contacts app only since I have better alternatives for the others. Check it out. Maybe it'll help and this is not a promo Lol its just that I've personally dealt with this and heard of contacts + and here we are.

Hey there,
Can someone please provide me with the stock Samsung messaging app? I have accidentally deleted it. I use Google Messenger, but it seems that without the Messaging app, a feature it broken. If I go into my call log, long click a number, press the 3 dots, and select "send number", nothing happens. Effectively leaving me without to option to share phone numbers. When I tried to restore Messaging from TB to test if that is what broke this feature, I accidentally deleted it. If anyone knows of an alternative work around, that would be great too!
Thanks in advance!
