today, I suddenly got this message after using the phone app - now I cannot make a phone call - it just comes up with this message - I can go into contacts and call using the phone - but only to my contacts - when I try using the keyboard it shuts down with the same message.  already tried what was suggested to go to applications, app manager, contacts, clear cache, clear data and take out the battery.  This is ridiculous - if I have to dial a number and they are not in my contacts I can't.  Help?

Contacts Sync Fix - Android Apps on Google Play 

Some phones that updated to 5.0 have an issue syncing ICE contacts with Google.

AActually it's a known issue. It was there in kit kat and lollipop but I have not seen it in a while. I would do a cache partition wipe.
