This has been driving me crazy for a few days now... thanks for the solution!

The last thing I remember doing was modifying a contact - I use 'recent contacts' view all the time.

I tried everything, including deleting the database (.osso-abook/db); nothing worked.

It seems that there is a separate cache for 'recent contacts' - even after I deleted the database it continued to show all the names from the deleted database and then crashing.

Even now, after changing views using your 'type from the home screen' trick, the recent contacts (no longer crashing) still shows the full details for contacts that are no longer in the database???

Does anyone have clues as to where this cache might live?
