820843 - [Contacts] Cannot add a new contact if the phone number does not include international prefix

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 821101

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Gaia::Contacts, defect)

Description

[Armen [:armenzg]]

I can add a contact if I only add the first name.
If I try to add a phone number (first and last name as well) and then tap "done" it won't save it and it will stay on the editing contact page.

I'm on the beta channel and on 12-06.

it worked perfectly for me. Think this is false

Comment 2

[Armen [:armenzg]]

Rather than calling it false it would be not reproducible for me.

Jose, que build estas usando? What is the date?

Gaia triage : +, usability issue.

It turns out if you type stuff fast, and then hit done quickly it will cause this to appear.  I believe it has something to do with the slowness of the keyboard/contacts app and submission of the contact.

Hi Naoki, how easily producible is this issue? thanks

Comment 6

[Armen [:armenzg]]

I have found the trick.

I can only create a contact if I add +1 at the beginning of the number.
There was no error message anywhere to be found.

This should be blocking basecamp.

[Jose Manuel Cantera]

oh yeah. My colleague Cristian discovered the same issue this morning. It is a problem with the PhoneNumber and Contacts API. 

this was the trace found on logcat

E/GeckoConsole(  674): [JavaScript Error: "(intermediate value).internationalNumber is null" {file: "resource://gre/modules/ContactDB.jsm" line: 275}]

This should be fixed by 821101. Reopen if you still see it with the patch.

Comment 9

[Armen [:armenzg]]

The fix will come through bug 821101.
Dropping bb request.
Clearing flag info for nhirata.

It's not just for +1, it's also occurs when you type fast.  I'm not sure if these two issues are the same.

Do you remember the number you wanted to add? This bug should only occur if you try to add a random number that doesn't match the format for local numbers of your current country. So if you tried to add a "real" number we should investigate more.

It was a real number.
This is the format I tried:
9998887777
adding +1 at the beginning works around it.

This was on a device?
What country are you in?
With a sim card in the phone?

I see from the phonebook that you are in canada. In your case it might be the Canada bug from 818507 that got fixed a few days ago.

hrmm. maybe I did have the spinner when I imported them. I nevertheless got the contacts in the phone. I don't recall if I rebooted the device or I hit the spinner issue at all.
