Nokia 500 contact displayed as 'no name'

Hello. My problem is displaying names in Contacts. Everything is ok in History of calls, it shows the correct names also when im calling or texting, but when I go to Contacts everyone is called (bez nazwy) which means in PL (no name). It happened one day that I noticed all contacts changed to the no name ones, so I tried to format card and phone memory, restore defult settings. After it I cant install Ogi Store on my phone :/ but the error with Contacts came back. Numbers saved on SIM works properly only those on the card memory seems to have no name. Can you help ?

Hi KeeRleS,

 

Thank you for your post and welcome to the forums!

 

The problem you're experiencing may be caused by the fact that you have contacts in two different places and there may be some conflicting, duplicate contacts. Try to remove all duplicates or just move all your contacts either on your SIM card or the phone memory. 

 

Try to restore your phone again, but untick "contacts" so that no contact data is being copied back on your device. This is an easy way of testing if the duplicate contacts are causing this.

 

Let us know if this helps,

Yeah, you were right :smileyhappy: it helped at least for now. I have copied all my SIm contacts to the phone memory, set to see only SiM contacts and removed them, then switched to phone memory only and it shows it correctly right now. Ill try to install Ovi Store now and will let you know if anything changed. Thank you for help :smileyhappy:
