Galaxy 4 update, mms contacts search is broken

After the latest update from Verizon on the Galaxy S4 to Android 4.3, the text messaging app no longer lets me search by name.

How it used to work:

Touch Messaging

Touch New Message

Start typing the recipient name, the search will match the name or number

How it works after the update:

Touch Messaging

Touch New Message

Start typing the recipient name

The search will NOT match the name

The search will ONLY match the number.  This is not helpful if I have not memorized all the phone numbers in my contacts.

My question is, how can I get the messaging app to search for names like it used to?

Try rebooting your phone and/or pulling the battery.

Thanks, the reboot got it!

I'm still going to pursue the thread and read the rest of the other thread.  I'm not done being picky yet. 🙂
