I would insist on wugfresh toolkit for the root since it is hassle free. Get laptop for a few mins from your friend and flash it. It is hardly going to take more than 2 mins. Btw bootloader unlocked?
Yeah boot loader is unlocked. And thanks for the follow up.

Can we not have a basic option like to display only the contact numbers rather than all the crap i.e. email address etc.
It's so annoying when I try to SMS someone or call someone especially if that person has multiple email address.
I hope that with a popular OS such as Android they should have atleast given an option for the user to select only phone numbers.
And also if someone has a phone like Redmi, then one more crap called MiCloud.
I think that is the reason why most of the people suggest Windows OS over Android for technically challenged people.

If there are many contact entries for a Single person, then merge them. (Contacts -> Find Duplicates) then your problem is solved!

Have you tried using a 3rd party contacts app like Contacts+ ?

My previous comment was for esumitkumar. Syncing will again import contacts which have only email too along with those with numbers. :|

To avoid confusion, please list all options that are visible to you once you open Settings menu of Contacts. We could go step by step from there.

I tried that option.

Have not tried but I thought it's a basic feature which I expect hence thought may not need an additional app to do that for me.

I had the same problem with my first android phone LG Optimus Net.

Flash TWRP. Use it and its file manager to backup things.

thanks for the link saiyangoku...
On a quick reading, One of the steps mention that i have to enable USB Debugging/Install ROM Manager app on my phone..but due to bootloop, i am unable to even reach the settings( forget app installation :p ). :(


I am downloading the stock ROM atm... should the battery be charged to a particular level before flashing ?? or can i straightaway flash the image ??
