Can't find contact when sending sms.
 

The problem I have is that when I want to send an sms, instead of choosing from the list I usually just write like the first 2 letters of the first name and last name. Ex If I want to send to " John Doe " I just write " jo do " in the " to " screen and it finds it.
Now after 1.2 it finds some that way but on others it says " no contact with that name could be found ".
Anyone else have this problem?

i think i knw why this is happening. the person ur trying to send sms , his number should be saved as mobile and not as phone, as with 1.2 u wont see an option sms for phone no's it will only for mobile no.s

Njoy !

Nope, doesn't seem to be the problem.
It was as " cell " and I changed it to " phone " then back again to see if there was some kind of bug, but to no avail. Any other suggestions?

I am almost sure it is related to letters case sensitivity.
Examining your contact, and try searching it with the proper case, if it works, it means we have a case-sensitivity bug.

It isn't problem with case sensivity.
Just checked it.

Hi
go to contacts, click on button at top of screen and select settings, make sure Display SMS only for Mobile Numbers is unchecked.

Should work now
