Other SmartphonesJust updated to latest android.. all my contact groups have disappeared. Any idea how they can be recovered... I can't find groups within contacts at all.. have they been placed elsewhere on the menu?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Other SmartphonesI tried contacting Samsung Customer Service about this. Their answer was I contacted the wrong Customer Service. Great.
Well, i just happened to be using another app to see which apps were doing something. I completely 4get (at 63 w ADHD, these things kinda happen now & then... & then again... &...).
However, what happened is it brought up an app that had the Contact icon, but some weird name.
So i decided to look at the Contacts app & see if i could find this contact.
When i did, under the Contact sdction, i noticed in the upper right part of the scrolling column an ampersand, & then a dbl person icon.
Hmm.
I clicked on that, & guess what boys & girls?
Lo & behold, GROUPS!
Whether you look in Contacts or the Phone Call app under Contacts, it's there. Whether it's been there all along, or just showed up w the recent upgrade i know not. If it's been there all along I'll be upset w myself for missing yet another obvious thing.
I've added a pic so you can see.
Update: When I looked under Contacts to take a screenshot the icon was no longer there. But it is in the Phone app under Contacts.
Now, if only I can get this Note 8 to do MMS automatically when i reach the SMS limit. That's frustrating.
Hope this helps folks.

Other SmartphonesYeah me too disappeared after update late Saturday. They are still in outlook or Microsoft exchange as the designated groups but not in note 8 . I haven't upgraded the tablet I have and it's still showing them as in the group tag!

In the upper right hand corner, those three dots should have your groups. I press the three dots, choose groups and then if I tap on one, it shows the people. Even an old group.
