Contacts App Crashing "Unfortunately, Contacts has stopped"

[AC Question]

LG G3 D850 on AT&T. Updated to Marshmallow (6.0) 2 days ago which I'm assuming has something to do with this issue. Anything having to do with editing or creating a contact causes "Unfortunately, Contacts has stopped" to pop up and I cannot edit or add any contact information. I haven't been able to find anything helpful online. I have tried to restart the phone and also went into settings>general>smart cleaning> and I removed the temporary files. If you have any ideas on what I can try next let me know. Thanks in advance.

I don't have any suggestions, but I have precisely the same issue, and also assume that it is due to the Marshmallow upgrade. I'll probably stop by the AT&T store this weekend just to see if they have any info.

Also having the same issue with my LG G3 since the upgrade. Posting to subscribe.

Do Android developers actually read these forums?

Same problem here on my Note 4. Cleared data & cache, Contacts still won't open.

I had the same problem. Alot of people said deleting voicemails worked, others said Google+ was the problem so they disabled it. But nothing worked for me so I went into:
1. Google+ App
2. Account settings
3. Clicked contacts
4. Clicked Keep contacts up to date

After this I clicked on contacts once more and it worked perfectly again. I hope it works for anyone else if nothing else worked either.

here is a simple fix. clear bith your data and cache under your contacts app and it will work. It will not delete your contacts its just restoring your contact info
