Question "Contact doesn't exist" bug on Contacts app - Redmi Note 10S

I'm getting this bug with the Contacts app on 12.5.15 Global (which I assume is stock Google).
To reproduce easily:
*choose a contact with no photo;
*edit to add a photo;
*view same photo it will error put with "contact doesn't exist message"
Any solution?
Is this specific with the 10s?

Solution (at least on my unit):
uninstall updates from the Contacts app. Now it can handle contacts with pictures again.

Mine is on global (EEA) 12.5.17 and I just tried to create the error you say you have but mine works as intended. The version is google contacts 3.66.3.440383796, so perhaps worth downloading the apk to give it try. Just noticed there is a newer version in the play store too so maybe try that first.

[Q] Messages Glitch

I have recently flashed DDJG4 and its by far the smoothest eclair for me but I have noticed that some of my contacts have a bug in messaging. Only their number shows up opposed to their name. This is annoying as I dont know who the message is from unless i open the contact details.
Contact details is fine, no problem. Just the messaging app.
Anyone else notice this? any fix ideas?
thanks
don't have enough messages from different people to confirm (only 4 so far). however, on a related note, do you see a long delay between unlocking the screen using the puzzle piece and the corresponding message opening in the messaging app?
Not checked. I use pattern lock. Ill have a go and see.

Sorry to say, but its just you.
I have over 41 conversations and all the names display correctly.
I noticed lagging on the lock screen to messaging in ddjf3
In ddjg4 there is no more lag anywhere.
I put the ext2 1gb lagfix just for the heck of it and the phone is now faster than me.
Reflash and see whats wrong.
Use the Backup apps from ritesh sahu.
I use them to backup my data before flashing.
I have the same problem too when I imported/restored about 150 old messages. Did you manage somehow to get rid of the problem? On my phone it's only some contacts where only the number is shown and not connected to a contact. This problem started for me when changing to the jm firmware line. For the jf and jg firmwares this problem does not appear.
Strangely, handcent sms has no problem with the sms/contacts. Therefore, this has to be a bug in the samsung sms application, not in our data.

MMS Issue + Invalid Recipient Issue

Has anyone noticed an oddness with the stock messaging app on the P9?
When I send out a group message, say to 2 or 3 of my friends. When they reply to the message, their messages come separate as individual messages and not show up in the original message thread that was sent.
I had the EVA-10(Chinese dual sim 64gb) but got rid of that and got the L09 Int'l Unlocked single sim version. Both are doing the same thing.
Just wanted to see if anyone knows if there is a solution to fix this?
Also, I didn't have this issue on the Chinese version but I am having it on this Int'l Unlocked version. The stock messaging app is giving me this error when I want to text someone. 3rd party apps work but the stock is not allowing me to text people within the app. If I go under contacts and choose to send a text through the contacts app with the default messaging app, it works just fine but it won't work from the messaging app directly. Really odd.
Thanks
Huawei P9 stock SMS app issues - need group MMS fix
I confirm having the same issue with the unlocked international (EVA-L09) version of the Huawei P9.
You can fix the texting individual people by reformatting your contact numbers into appropriate international format with Playstore app "Twitch 2.0". That worked great for me and avoided the need for any root access.
I still need a fix for the group MMS issue. All me sends to/from a group always come through individually.
Hope we find a fix!!
Yes I noticed the invalid number issue had something to do with only US numbers. Every int'l number I had in my contacts would work just fine. All I had to do was to put a +1 in front of the US people and that fixed the issue but like you said no solution for the MMS issue at the moment. I am hoping with @paulobrien getting a ROM out soon, we might get our issue resolved. I will shoot a tweet out to Huawei too but doubt they will even respond.
Any update on this issue? I'm experiencing the same problem and was hoping someone had figured it out by now.
I know this is an old thread, but was hoping someone found a fix for the group MMS issue? I have a P10 and the same thing is happening. Huawei support was no help.

Strange dialler bug

Hi,
Just wondering if anyone can confirm this apparent P10 bug?
When entering the digits of a (numerical) phone number in the dialler, the dialler app closes before I can enter the whole number - usually immediately after the third digit has been entered. It doesn't seem to matter whether the number is associated with an existing contact or not.
I'm running an L09 rebranded to L29 (B171), with a single SIM, and am rooted.
Off to the play store to look for third-party diallers...
At the third digit the dialer starts looking for the number you are dialing in the contact list. Maybe you deleted the default contacts app?
Many thanks M1chiel,
I hadn't deleted the contacts app, but I <had> changed the default messaging app to Google Messages.
Reverting to the stock Huawei Messaging app seems to have fixed the issue. Not sure why this should be (I'm not a fan of the Huawei app....)

It's clearly a bug. I also didn't like the stock app that much, but eventually I got to appreciate it.

Google Dialer app's contacts keep duplicating.

I bought a Moto G6 back in June of 2020 and it's working great. I currently am running stock Android 9. However there is one thing that is bugging me. The Google Dialer app's contact's keep duplicating. It doesn't happen in Google contacts though. It's exclusively in the Google Dialer app. I've updated the app to the latest version (v55.1.335513515), but the issue still persists. I don't believe this issue is related to the phone, or the OS, but I am not sure. So far, I have force stopped the Google Dialer app, and cleared both the storage and cache options; but it doesn't seem to remedy the problem. Since I cannot provide a screenshot showing the actual issue (I don't want to put any personal info of my contacts for obvious reasons) I will show an example of the issue here in text. My contact list in Google Dialer looks like...
Contact 1
Contact 2
Contact 2
Contact 2
Contact 2
Contact 3
Contact 4
Contact 4
Contact 4
Contact 4
Contact 4
Contact 4
Contact 5​If there is a solution to this problem, please let me know.
Thank you.
Hmmmm. I think this might be a sync related issue. I downloaded Simple Dialer and ran into the same exact problem with the contact list within the app.

WhatsApp contact name not shown

My k20 pro was updated to the latest version, Miui 12.0.2 . Now when I use the WhatsApp, instead of showing the name of my contacts, it shows only the numbers. I checked the permission of the apps and the contact list is on. MIUI Optimization is turn off, to use galaxy wearable app. I have sync the WhatsApp in the setting, WhatsApp contact name appeared but after few hours it will revert back to number. How can i solve this issue?

I had a similar issue on 9T.
Try by opening Contacts, Settings, More and take Rebuild index data
