Just download firmware from sammobile for your region and flash it. With odin. If you don't know how to do it don't do it before you read more

Have you exported your contacts? If not, do that first - to External Card, OK?
Then [Settings] [Apps] scroll over to [All] & down to [Contacts] There are 2 items for Contacts, the 2nd will clear all contacts and you can set up your personal one again then Import your Contacts from extSD - I'd clear Data on both, then set up your account then add other back in and see how you go.
My contacts are backed up at Google.
To clear the user before i do it?

You would be clearing Contacts info on the phone, not in Google. There's clear cache and clear data and the 2 settings - then go back into contacts and import your saved ones and (hopefully) should all be working again.
This is what i get...
Even when the contacts list is empty

OK... more info needed. What is your current ROM? Can you DL Phone Info Samsung from Play and tell us what the details are from there? i.e. BL, Base and PDA?
Before you tried the Sammobile DL, what ROM were you on?
Did Contacts ever work properly or if it did, what was the last thing you changed before you noticed it stopped working?
Are there any other Google/Samsung things not working?
Just got the the phone on ebay few days ago.
All the other things works just fine
Contacts works properly just adding new contact doesn't work
OK... WHERE are your contacts? Go into Contacts and then Settings - Contacts to Display... what does it say?
Try choosing various ones like Device, or SIM card and see if you can add to them?
I removed the contacts before deleteing the cache and data to make sure that same old contact is not making any problem.
they are backed up on Google. .. ive synced them again now.
The problem is only that Contacts is stooped when tring to add new contact
Try putting contacts on device, & show only them, then see if you can add? Maybe its trying to put new contacts direct to Google instead of sync them there?

When you add contacts you get a choice as to where they go. SIM card, Device or Google... You also get a choice in Settings as to which Contacts get displayed. Sometimes when you Display All you get 2 or 3 identical contacts showing. You get rid of the extras by showing ONLY Google or Device or SIM.
So... where are your Contacts? Click on each of the 'Contacts to Display' options and see what you get. If all your contacts are ONLY on Google then maybe yu have an issue with adding contacts directly to Google and instead maybe put your contacts on the phone...

When you run the software it already has the basics things like contacts selected for backup, you can stick to the default or you can select a custom folder and add that to the list. I selected the root of all folders (usually depicted as "\" and backed it all up to my Storage Card. If you do not know what you want to keep, keep it all. I maintain all my large full system backups on my SD card that came with the mogul and use my 4GB card just for incremental backups once a week. The key is to read everything before you click.
When I first rooted my nexus 7 I deleted the google people app because I didnt have a need for it. I recently installed tablet talk and have realised that to get the names of my contacts to syc with the texts I will need to reinstall the app. Does anyone have an apk that will install? Ive been unable to find anything on the web so far.

Did you not do a nandroid backup before messing around removing stuff? You could use TB to extract out of that or use other methods.

"People" is the display name of contacts - there is no people.apk.
If you use Google to store your contacts, then you'll need Google contact sync. If you have a Google account, then you need Google account manager. But I'm guessing that that it's already installed or you wouldn't be able to access Play store.
TB does not backup system apps, only their data. You will need to manually copy the contact apks. Then, on your ROM where you don't have people, copy the apks to /system/data, boot into recovery and wipe cache and Dalvik, and reboot. You should have people back again.

Okay I have got Facebook sync working again in order to do this you must be rooted and using a root explorer to transfer the files.
To begin download the files attached below.
Extract them either to your phone or copy them over to your phone.
Next using root explorer go to data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/databases
DELETE the file contacts2.db-journal.
Copy the contacts2.db from the extracted file to data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/databases when asked if you would like to over the file currently there do so.
Make sure the contacts2.db permissions are set to rw-rw---
Restart
After reboot copy ContactsProvider.apk from the extractd zip to system/app and when asked overwrite the current file
Make sure ContactsProvider.apk has permissions set to rw-rw-r--
After reboot load facebook app and sync options should be available and should sync.

Okay Guys I am currently working on getting Facebook Contact Syncing to work on stock 4.2.2 so far I've got the sync menu back in Facebook just no syncing, I'm having trouble figuring out where to edit the contacts2.db I know that I have to place the following column into the raw_contacts table: is_restricted but no luck finding where to place it. If anyone can help me I'll post the zip file with everything going so we can have facebook sync back.
I'm using this guide to help me but its not very clear on the part I'm stuck on. Anyone able to help?
Once I get stock going I'll look at getting other ROM's going that currently don't support it.
**AND BEFORE ANYONE SAYS HAXSYNC... I CURRENTLY USE THAT AND LOVE HOW CRISP THE PHOTOS ARE BUT IT DOES NOT SYNC PHONE NUMBERS WHICH IS WHAT I'M NEEDING**

You might try downloading a dump from a earlier version of android that supported Facebook Contact Syncing.
Then use a file compare tool like WinMerg to determine the differences and location of where "raw_contacts table: is_restricted" was inserted into supported versions.

Don't be a dummy like me...
If you intend to act stupid (like I did) and attempt this fix even though you aren't running a stock ROM, make sure you back up the ENTIRE "com.android.providers.contacts" directory... not just the files you are overwriting. If things go south, the whole directory can get deleted. I have no idea how this happened, but I assume it's the OS attempting to self-correct instead of exploding entirely.
Wish CyanogenMod would merge this. I would do this fix except for it would be overwritten after flashing a new CM build which happens several times a week.

How do you get the contacts to remember what contacts are joined? When I switch roms, I always have to rejoin/merge a few contacts. Does Google not remember??

I can't seem to find where the Action Memo's are stored?
Basically, I copied and pasted my whole storage onto my computer and then did a full wipe of the phone. I've just put back all the data back onto the phone and my Action Memo's are empty. I had quite a few important notes I scribbled down there!

Kies backs up S Note only, not action Memo's. And Titanium backs up user applications only (it's advised not to backup system apps).
So sadly, none of the above will help me out here.
No backup possible?! Its sad that it lacks pdf export as well.

Incase someone else is also doing the same here is how to get your actions memos
BUT BEFORE YOU DO YOUR FULL WIPE
In action memo >> Share via >> Select all >> whatever app you want
when it shows list of apps for sharing, It has already generated jpgs in action memo folder in phone memo
So you can copy them just like any other pic from there or use share via.
Hope I helped & Happy to help (Press thanx if i helped)

Multiple App files from Nandroid extracted Titanium . . .?
I thought I had it covered by extracting the notes from my TWRP Nandroid backup with Titanium, (I've done it before)
However this time I have a problem, There are several files for the same app . . .

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"

First I tried selecting All 4 of the files to restore . . . the notes were restored, but it corrupted them so that they showed no info
Next I tried deleting all of the entries and restoring just the first . . . That didn't work
I'm sure someone knows the reason Titanium is pulling multiple files from the same app . . .
Does anyone know how I can use this backup data to restore my notes?
Thanks!
The above is actually the same problem I'm encountering. Any suggestions on how I can recover the notes? Even if I can just see them so I can jot down the information.

i think its just app data so if your on level 6 on a game and you get a new phone it will start on level 6
but it says: backup wifi passwords, settings!!
maybe it will restore this stuff after u do a factory reset, to help u save time and efforts to do all of that after the reset?!
and if that is correct, if u choosed not to automatically restore, it will give u an option to restore only what u want?!

yeah passwords in google like website passwords
When you backup your data via backup option, it saves WiFi passes, Google account info etc.
When you re-set up your phone from another ROM or after a reset, you enter your existing Google account data and you have an option to restore all the apps you had previously from the Play store and it auto downloads them for you. - it saves certain phone settings to.

Soon as you sign into your Google account via your phone after a restore/wipe, it'll ask you if you wish to restore your settings and apps, not sure where Google actually store this data though or if it's accessible (don't think it is)
