I'm running the latest stock rom and it is rooted. It seems to happen at least once a day that the contacts app will randomly force close leaving the names in my messages app to show only numbers and i have to go into contacts app to let it restart.
What can i do about it?

as the title says, i can receive but i can't send, and the receiving is intermittent. when i delete an email, it doesn't show deleted on the gmail app (where it shows the unread count in the header of the app, not talking about the notification bar here)...
if i delete an app or read it on my phone, it still shows unread and in the inbox of my gmail online. it's been happening since yesterday. i've done a factory reset, i've loaded recovery, at first i thought it was due to an app update (happened right before the issue started), but even after a recovery without that app updated, and deleting all apps showing update available, still happening.
i wonder if this is related with the VZW 3G issues others have been having?
Did you recently update anything? I had a similar issue but after a day or two gmail finally syncd back up. It happened when I flashed to the leaked ota and again when I went to 2.2 otherwise I suggest updating the gmail apk.

Just rooted, no roms or kernels yet. Only update coulda been an app of some kind. But Idk if that's it based on it kept happening even after rolling back to a backup I made a few days before these updates. Maybe a gmail provisioning issue? All other data seems to work, although sometimes slower than normal.

Clear Data
Hi,
This happens to me all the time when I am jumping between roms and using nandroid alot. Try going into Manage Applications, find the Gmail app and then delete the Data and Clear Cache. Ignore the warning about losing stuff since everything is synced. Then go back and open gmail and give it a few minutes to sync back up and you should be good to go.
Hope this helps.

Absolutely fixed it. Thanks so much!

I realise whatsapp service (its the service) wont end or stop it will keep cosuming batt life...so the only way is to end it...
Normally after i end the service or restart the phone the contacts will be lost and when i refresh it doesnt help..the only way is to reinstall..the validation of the sms is the only way to bring the contacts back

No problems here whatsoever. Have you tried wiping (dalvik) cache?
So if i understand you right, you force close whatsapp because you believe it drains battery (which it barley does on 2.2 and up) and then complain because the app doesn't work like you expect it to. No wonder that no-one else encountered this.
And did you know that in the whatsapp home screen you can click the upper right corner, hit menu and refresh your contacts?
Sorry i am very new to android.
Erm wad is delvik cache?
I noe i read something on 2.2 nt consuming batt life...i realised that under the services if the app is inactive it will go under "cache" bt its still in the active (ok nvm my other apps are also there)...then u went to see the cpu time....the other apps under "active" the time is not ticking but whatsapp is ticking...that made my think it is actively running and therefore consuming batt...
I understand that i can refresh contacts bt it doesnt work..the only thing that work is reinstalling n the sms validation

And logically thinking it must have some service in the background running if not how it knows and notifies users that theres a msg in real time...theres no push or refresh interval

well if your are still having the problem.. :silly: open up your contacts chose a contact which you remember having a whatsapp account.. select send message using whatsapp. Then when the screen comes.. add that person to your existing contacts. Wait for a bit. Now hopefully you get to see all your contacts in whatsapp also. It worked for me :good:

For some reason this week I have lost my contacts app twice. Running the same setup both times, which I have been using for a while with no issues until now.
Last time I reflashed the rom and it brought my contacts back for a day or two and now they are gone again...
Anyone have any idea what might be causing it?
Im on ComRom 1.3

Are your contacts synced with Backup Assistant? Google sync?
Have you checked Phone> Contacts> Display Options to see which contacts you have or dont have to be displayed.
All phone contacts and Google contacts are set to be displayed.
The contacts are still there... the app is just gone. If I open the dialer and dial a persons number, the contact name will appear on the dialer screen, but i cant get to the list of my contacts in any way. Not even through Launcher Pro's People widget.
Try GO contacts or another alternative from the market.

I'm simply getting a terrible lag where it never opens my inbox. Very frustrating.

nobody else has this issue with gmail app?
I'm having the same issue with the e-mail program. I have set up my exchange account, and it displays correctly in the widget, but if I try to open the app, it force closes. Is there a way to uninstal the app and reinstall it? I have tried clearing all the data and recreating the account. Many thanks!
surprising to see no one else has gmail app issues with second account as i have tried on 3 G Notes and all force closed.........strange coz nobody tested this wanted feature or busy about bragging about pentile matrix (even though you don't know what it is)???????!!!!!!!!!
For the dual count I don't know but it seems for me Gmail app have a stange behaviour. After quiting a sleep of the phone, gmail lag sometimes before opening...
Maybe there's a link between our problems.
After the update, my gmail app does not sync anymore!
Push does no work.
Puling down in the app does not work either.
Anyone having this problem?
No issues here.
No such issue as well. Thank you.
Not hapenning
No problems here with Gmail sync or push notifications. Maybe clear cache and data from the app, uninstall it, reboot, then install it again to see if it's fixed
Mine works too
Lol one more for no problems after update...
No issues here.
Just got the march update finally.
When i first started the gmail app there was a "getting your messages" loading bar and emails list was empty.
UI in the app was empty of accounts and messages
Eventually after trying to use it, close and start the gmail app, it froze. I chose to kill it from the dialog that came up. When i started the app again it was OK.
Will update if i notice any more issues
