[Q] Problem ICS - Contacts has stopped

Hi,
I've updated to ICS (first Samsung stock ICS XWLPF, now to AllianceROM v2 XWLPG) and I have one problem - Contacts has stopped
When I use "Phone" and try to search a name.. for example enter 346 (for the letters combination "Dim" ) .. the numbers appear as "34/6" and 8 names are found with a white triangle icon in the right to see them. When I press the triangle icon to choose the correct name after few secounds "Contacts" crash with massage "Unfortunately, Contacts has stopped." and OK massage. There is no problem when I use Contacts to search for names (not in the Phone though the triangle icon).
What I did try:
- Go to Settings > Applications > All > Clear data in Contacts and Contacts Storage. - restore contacts but it did not work - crash again
- Try wipe data/factory reset (wipe cache partition) after phone boot I've add google account again, wait to sync and again - crash
- Update my colleague i9100 (with different google acount and contacts) to stock ICS Samsung XWLPF and again this problem
Note If I enter for example only 2 numbers 34 (for the letters combination "Di" ) .. the numbers appear as "34" (without "/" ) and there is no problem when I click the triangle icon to see name results.
Any idea where the problem is?
I did not even know I could search like that.
But on my phone that does work (ICS), so it should be possible

[Q] Can't edit calendar entries after upgrading to ICS 4.0.4 and then to JB 4.1.2

Hello
Since I have upgraded my S2 from GB v2.3.5 to ICS v4.0.4 stock ROM and rooted it, I have a problem with the calendar.
I'm using only the Android calendar (My calendar), not Google's one.
I create a new appointment --> OK
I try to modify it but I can't because the Edit choice is not available in the menu.
I noticed that :
- previously created entries are not affected,
- newly created entries using Outlook and synced with Kies are also not affected.
Those non affected entries can only be modified once, the Modify option disappears after first modification.
I've tried to change all the (few) options but without any success.
Could it be a permission's issue ? How to fix it ?
If you have any ideas, they will be much appreciated.

I would suggest looking into two things:
1/ Make sure the version of the calendar app you're using is the most updated one from the market. If not - try updating it and see if that helps
2/ You can try clearing data (just in case in your rom upgrade process something got confused in the data). You do that by going into settings > applications > all (or downloaded - it doesn't matter) > your calendar app > clear data. Reboot the phone and try again.
I hope it works
Solved !!!
I found the solution.
I cleared the data for the app named "Calendar storage" (caution, not "Calendar") and then every new entry in the calendar can be edited now, even after several modifications.
Of course, this clears all the entries you have in your local calendar.
So a backup before is necessary (Kies export or Kies sync with Outlook) to be able to restore it after and get your calendar data back.
Thanks to all.
Hope it will help those who are stuck like I was.
The thread status can be put to SOLVED and then be closed.
Same issue when upgrading from ICS to JB
Same issue when upgrading from ICS to JB : unable to edit any existing calendar entry.
So same solution with this little difference : as Calendar and Tasks have been merged into one app named "S Calendar", clearing data will act on both types.
So to recover data, it is necessary to clear Kies sync logs for both and then sync them again.

[Q] Kitkat - How to: press phone # "link" to make it go to text instead of dialpad?

[Q] Kitkat - How to: press phone # "link" to make it go to text instead of dialpad?
when there is an underlined phone number link that you can press (eg. on my calendar or someone texted me with another number), i want to be able to press it and have it go to my SMS app. however, i am only shown to have the choice to go to the phone app.
i believe when i had ICS/JB, it allowed me to go to the text app.
this is on LG G2, with a 4.4.2 kitkat rom (Carbon rom). i am rooted so i can use any xposed modules that may offer this feature, if anyone knows, that would be great. thanks!
