[Fixed in 1.1.0.38] Google contacts without name shown as numbers in People app [released]

When syncing contacts from a Google account, entries with empty name field but with non-empty organization / company field (company phone numbers, for example) are shown as numbers in People app's contact list. Search does work using company names, though, but nevertheless it's annoying, especially when receiving a call from one of them and not being able to identify who's calling you (only their numbers appear).

I think that the import procedure should somewhat take into account the company / organization name when syncing contacts from Google, as seems to be the case for vCard imports (more details from MattVogt at this thread).

Any news on this topic? Maybe after implementing Google Contacts two-way sync some sailor can have a look at this bug ;-)

I think this behaviour results in the bug described in thread Company name as main item in contacts

Hopefully it will be fixed in next release.
