    From what I remember has been previously written, there are no contact   
   names stored anywhere on Maria Sophia's phone. I guess it means that   
   when a message is received (eg email or SMS), and the Contacts app   
   offers to store the senders name as a contact, that offer is refused   
   every time.   
      
   The contacts could instead be stored in a text file with email addresses   
   and phone numbers next to them.
