I see the following ways to solve this:

  • Make the letters scroll when user is scrolling using fast scroller
  • Replace the letters with a scrollbar similar to how it's done in messages for conversations but instead of displaying the name in the bubble, it would display the letter.
  • Divide the contact list by letters similar to how it's done in Google Contacts.

With the third option, https://github.com/FossifyOrg/General-Discussion/issues/305 can also be implemented like Google Contacts with the favorite contacts at the top but it kind of defeats the purpose of having a separate favorites tab.

It looks like you are using reddit fastscroll code, in which case, you could try the solution mentioned in this post: https://github.com/reddit/IndicatorFastScroll/issues/36

also look at updated library here: https://github.com/tibbi/IndicatorFastScroll
