contacts disappeared and changed to unknown

[Sahar Monlite]

Hey there,

all of a sudden, my contacts disappeared ! i just can see facebook and skype contacts.
the whatsapp contacts changed into unknown. i have read all previous posts about the topic and tried but no success. nothing worked out.

i tried import/export data. deleted recent apps, changed sync and unsync to everything but nothing worked out.

What should i do to get my contacts back??

Thanks in advance!

The same thing happened to me just right now too. Someone please email me if you find a fix. I just got this phone three weeks ago. [email address removed]

Does anyone have any answers to this problem? As soon as I activated my SKYPE account, all of my contacts vanished. Now, all I have are my Facebook contacts and several hundred UNKNOWNS! Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you

In contacts use the Settings / Contacts to Display option to see where you have 'Unkowns'. Then for each contact group disconnect the user or uninstall the App and re-install and login.

When the app re-syncs the contacts are then correctly displayed.

Didn't really work for me..Problem is that there are no numbers in the 'Unknown' contacts.
Does anyone have another solution to get back all those numbers?
I have a note 2, if that is of any relevance here...
