How can I do a merge of contacts in Messaging and Phone functions?

[AC Question]

Merging of contacts in Messaging and Phone functions

Repeat: As opposed to my Nokia phone my Sumsung (Android) phone in both the Messaging and Phone functions shows multiple entries for communication to a single contact creating unneeded lengthy history lists in both functions - can this be changed by grouping/merging contacts somehow by a single (once-off) action i.e. without manually and individually creating favourite etc lists? Is this perhaps a Sumsung issue or does it apply to Android in general?

Thank you again

Re: Merging of contacts in Messaging and Phone functions

Welcome to the forums! I'm not sure I understand what you're asking. Do you mean having multiple instances of call logs and stuff? It usually groups them by time, so that if someone called you 2-3 times within a period it will show "Person (3)." But if you go to the person's contact page it will show all of your history. Sorry if I misunderstood
