[Android Central Question]

A friend called me one day and I did not answer because I didnt recognize the number, well come to find out her name had disappeared. Only the number showed up. This has happened to several people on my contact list. I had to search thru old text to find some of my contacts. What's going on? I'm going to save all my contacts to the sims card because saving to the phone I'm losing
numbers. If the person dont call me I would never know they're gone.

Welcome to Android Central! Which phone? When you refer to your contact list, are you talking about what you see in the Contacts app, or what you see in your Phone app?

In general, it's more reliable to save your contacts to your Google Contacts in the cloud, rather than locally to your Phone account. Not many phones allow saving contacts to your SIM card any more, since that's pretty old technology (and you can't save much to the SIM card, since it has very little memory).
