How can I retrieve all hidden contacts on my phone?

[Bijit Talukdar]

I can't see any contacts on my Lumia 550 phone. Only when someone calls me, I can see his/her name. Please fix the problem.

How exactly do you expect us to "fix" the problem? :winktongue: at best we can provide you with solutions so you can fix the problem on your own..

Open People app (see all apps list) > directly under the search bar you will see "showing" and after that some more text (the extra bit of text will most likely match your accent color) > tap on the colored text > select appropriate options > tap on "done"

That should do it. If you need additional help or have more questions or details to share, please join the site so you can reply in this thread. See this link for instructions on how to join Windows Central.

Same problem. The contacts are not present in the app and whatever options you select they do not appear.

When someone calls you and his name is present in the contacts the info appears but when you choosen the contact options it says - no contact ....

Soft reset didn't work. The contacts are not present in people.live.... No idea what to do. Any suggestions?

Why does Microsoft Lumia lose contacts and it becomes very hard to get them back?
