Search is currently supported. Just start typing and the list will narrow down to the contacts with that name. You can even just start typing in the home screen and it will open contacts with that as your search

You can also go to the App Menu, select "Groups" and select "Google Voice" to show a subset of your contacts.

For those who don't want a huge list of GV contacts, you can now disable it in the "Advanced" connection settings.

Please note this is a Maemo Contacts issue and not a The One Ring issue.



I present contact names as Google gives them to me. Parsing name formats is a sticky business and I'd rather stay away from it especially since clients (like Maemo 5's RTComm) sort of mess with name parsing.
Sorry, getting some of my Onering and DC questions mixed up.

I added GV "field" to a contact. What number do I put in the number field? I put the number I want to call and when I press that link, it says select your own account, I press that and the selection goes away and nothing happens? Also looks like something broke at some point the onering because the dial pad fails now also.
