As you can see in 

Xref
AnchorNameandroid_contact_list
 each contact can show a coloured ball at its left, or nothing at all. These are status marker and they represent the Presence Status for each contact.

Presence

The Presence avoid users to call contacts who are not reachable, eg: because they do not have 

Brand
brandclient
 activated and/or connected. The main value of this feature is to improve user experience suggesting the possible outcome of a call.

Contacts lists

Starting with the present version, there are three
Brand
brandclient
 gives you access to three different kind of lists:
  • ALL: it lists all the contacts which are in the mobile address book, ordering them in the very same way.
  • KNOWN: it shows only known contacts (registered or not) according to 
    Brand
    brandserver
    's knowledge. This means it is a list of the contacts that are recognised by the server and thus can have a status.
  • FAVOURITES: it reads the contacts marked by you as "
    Brand
    brandclient
     favorites". It's a selection of contacts you choose to have apart, in order to make speed calls.
Each list may show a Contact status beside each contact. The contact status legenda is shown below:

Contact status

OnlineThe contact is reachable. You can make a secure call to the user.
OfflineThe contact is not reachable, because is not under network coverage or is offline. You can try to make a secure call but the call will likely failImage RemovedWarningThe contact is not reachable using a full secure call, but you can call him using one Sip Trunk configured on your server. 
ErrorThere is a comunication error between your phone and the server. The contact status is unknown, anyway you can try to make a secure call
