Does anyone know where to find the setting to have contacts displayed by first names? I've searched all over, but it seems it's a default to sort by last name.
I cannot get mine to sort by Last Name, and it's a huge bone of contention for me. I cannot figure out how you got yours to sort by last name, but if you ever figure it out, please let me know!Does anyone know where to find the setting to have contacts displayed by first names?

If you have Gmail on your PC browser, with contacts, try sorting these contacts by first or last name. Then in your X, go to accounts (as in email) > gmail > sync contacts.
See if that makes a difference for you.
I just don't know what's going on. Some of my contacts are fine. Others don't show a first name at all, just the last name, but will show the full name in the "links" part. Doesn't make any difference which group of contacts I select to show (they are all the same, anyway) - I get the same thing. Go figure.
... An interesting side note is that it's possible to type a correction into the contact name field, but it's not the same as clicking on the INVISIBLE box at the end of the field (highlighted only with a mouse-over) where you are presented with the three separate fields: First, middle and last. This I discovered accidentally!
Also, for businesses, I put the entire business name in the "name" box field (leaving the "middle" and "last" fields blank) and it worked just fine in either sort.
