Contacts first last name display problem

Hi, I have a problem with my phone right now, I was wondering why select contacts on my contact list seem to continously revert to Last, First name format, when I had specifically set it to First Last several times over, yet after a few minutes approximately 10 of my contact would change back without my knowledge, this is without syncing the device either.

Please if you know anything that can stop this from happening people tell me... Thanks in advance!

I did do that, the problem is that a SELECT FEW continuously revert to the Last, First layout, no matter how many time I change it to First Last layout. It is not my method it seems to be a glitch of some sort.

Re: Contacts first last name display problem

how do u even set it to first last?

What i do is put a comma at the end, like "Jane Doe," that way this will always come up under J and not D

Re: Contacts first last name display problem

Im not sure if this is going to help any of you..But what this program does is change your contacts that show lastname firstname to Firstname Lastname.
