Whatsapp contact names not showing; just numbers on Samsung Galaxy S3

Question

My Samsung Galaxy S3 has been freezing. On my Whatsapp, the contact names are gone. All it shows are contact numbers.

Is there a way to fix this problem? Is there a way to stop the phone from freezing?

Make sure whatsapp has permissions to allow it to look at your contacts.

Initially you may have added an account in your phone and later changed that account. There can be a problem of sync.

So how would actually fix this problem? If you don't have an answer to the question this may fit better as a comment. – Andrew Lott Nov 6 '14 at 14:23
