Omicron Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Is it Android you're running? If so, check if your Gmail account you used for your phone has contacts synced and check on your account online to see if you can view your contacts there (https://contacts.google.com/) Link to comment
AshuraDX Posted May 31, 2015 Author Share Posted May 31, 2015 @@Omicronfound another solution : used KiES to do a full backup of my contacts and reset the phone to factory state - sadly that didn't fix anything Link to comment
Omicron Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 :/ If that's the case then I dunno. Probably best to contact the manufacturer at this point I guess or ask on an Android forum Link to comment
AshuraDX Posted May 31, 2015 Author Share Posted May 31, 2015 since I wanted to get a new phone anyway I ordered a Galaxy S3 Mini, and flashed my current phone on suggestion of a friend - which surprisingly fixed my problem Link to comment
Cerez Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Mobile phones are getting so unreliable these days. My iPhone keeps completely freezing up when it's receiving a call. Stupid thing... Never used to have that problem with my mobile phone in the 90s! These days they are overloaded with junk you don't need, and fail to do what they were actually created for. Always keep a regular backup of your contacts/data on a mobile phone. (And not just the iTunes kind of bundled backup.) Next time you may not be so lucky... (I keep my contacts on my PC, backed up, and my more important SMS on the SIM card.) Link to comment
