• I looked through the code and it seem you can only sort when you are retrieving users from a group.

  if there is someone out there who knows differently, please let me know

• Titanium.Contacts is a crock. It will crash your users' devices.

  This is the only way I have been able to get a sorted name list:

  var contacts = Titanium.Contacts.getAllPeople();
  
  contacts.sort(sortByLastName);
  
  function sortByLastName(a, b) {
      var x = JSON.stringify(a.lastName).toUpperCase();
      var y = JSON.stringify(b.lastName).toUpperCase(); 
      return ((x < y) ? -1 : ((x > y) ? 1 : 0));
  };
