Filter does not filter favorites view about contacts

[akki42]

Do you also have this issue with contacts stored in Phone storage (not visible by other apps)? They are handled separately from other contacts, so I'm curious if these also show incorrectly.

Thanks for looking into this.

No, Phone storage (not visible by other apps) works correctly (favorite conact is not shown in favorites view when this source is not active).

Trying things out, I came across another oddity - no clue if this is related in any way (and / or specific to my devices as well):
I have a number of "duplicate" contacts, which (1) I have both in a nextcloud account and as Signal (or Molly, a Signal clone) contact and (2) which are assigned to a group (e.g. "Family") in the nextcloud account.
On the contacts view and with duplicates merging deactivated, both contact entries show the group ("Family") flag (and editing or deleting that flag in one of the contact entries also affects the other - even when that other entry is not even visible as it source is filtered / deactivated).
On the groups view / tab, however, only the entry from nextcloud is shown. If nextcloud source is filtered / deactivated (from contacts or favorites view - there is no filter icon on group view), Family group is shown as empty "(0)". [The number of contacts in a group does not change immediately when filtering a source; you have to click on / open any group first...]

@Aga-C No idea. The one pre-installed in that device.

@Aga-C Thank you! Good to know. 😊

Can you turn off merging duplicates in Settings and check if the favorite contact is, in fact, from the filtered out source?

[akki42]

I already checked that. (In fact, I realized the current behavior when I was shown duplicate favorites even though only one source was active / selected.)

You can also try it out with a newly created 'test' contact. It will be shown (if marked as favorite) even when its source / storage is filtered / unselected.

It may be OS specific, I couldn't reproduce it on my stock Android 13 (OnePlus 8 Pro), Android 10 (Xiaomi Redmi 7a) and Android 14 (emulator). If anybody else also encounters this bug, please write your device model and OS version, we'd like to have as much info as possible.

Just to make sure (sorry!):
You did look in the favorite view / tab?
(The filter works fine on both the contacts and the groups view / tab...)

Or another way to check:
Unselect all sources. Are (any) favorites still shown in favorites view / tab?

[Aga-C]

Yes, I was checking in Favorites tab.

Same problem here. I have an Oscal C60 with Android 11.

@antodc Do you have stock Android OS or custom ROM?

[Aga-C]

@antodc So it's stock OS 🙂
