There are several steps you can take to try and fix a bug in the contacts app on your Samsung Galaxy S3:
  1. Restart your device: This can often resolve minor bugs and glitches in the system.
  2. Clear the cache and data of the contacts app: Go to "Settings" > "Applications" > "Contacts" > "Clear cache" and "Clear data".
  3. Check for updates: Go to "Settings" > "About device" > "Software update" to check if there is an update available for your device or the contacts app.
  4. Remove and re-add the contacts: Backup your contacts and then delete all the contacts and re-add them again.
  5. Factory reset: This will erase all data and return the device to its original state. However, it's important to note that this will delete all data on your device, so make sure to back up your important files before proceeding.
  6. If none of the above steps work, you can try to install a custom ROM that is known to be stable, this can fix the bug.

It's important to note that these steps may vary slightly depending on the specific version of Android that your device is running. If the bug persists after trying these steps, it may be best to contact Samsung for further assistance.
