Lost Native Dialer and Contacts App after upgraing to 4.0.3

**rungss** · 07-03-2012, 01:03 AM

Hi there,

I have a Samsung Galaxy Note GTN7000 Android Phone with Vodafone Connection in Mumbai.

I upgraded to 4.0.3 last Saturday after which the Phone and Contacts Icon at the Bottom disappeared.

I can't add it from App Menu too as it seems the application itself has been removed somehow.

I don't see them in the list of Application installed in ALL Tab.

Please help me restore it.

Any help is appreciated.

Yeah..
Yesterday, suddenly I lost all my Contacts. I realized that Google doen't sync the Contacts both ways as in Contacts previously in my Phone were not in Google Contacts.

I tried to Rest Factory Settings and after that also the DIaler and Contacts App were not restored.

And I also started getting this Error: "'unfortunitaly the process com.android.phone has stopped"

I was able to get these back after going to a Samsung Service Center and updating/installing the firmware afresh.

I lost all Data. Had taken a backup of important files before going for it.

Do take a Backup of all your Contacts, and Files.

You can use kies which is available for Windows.

I used various Contacts and Dialer App till the time it was resolved.

DW Contacts, Dialer One, exDialer

This just happened to me without upgrading anything.

Google does sync both ways. I guess you were having issues with syncing.

maybe because you lost contacts app the syncing broke.
