I don't think it is a Verizon thing since it happened with Froyo. So more of a Google thing.
May not be the best answer. But, Better contacts app claims it will sort contacts by last name. Costs $2.63, though.
IndMind,
It never worked w/ native (2.1) on the X itself, there was a work around that used to work thru gmail prior to (2.2).
Good luck,

Have the same problem with the Samsung Fascinate, and I agree with you "indMind."
Apologizing is nice, but how about a commitment to fix the problem?
...........so yeah.. fix it already!

I think you need to be lobbying to Google. They designed the operating system which decides how contacts are sorted and whether or not you have the option to change it.
Good luck to you, because I too like my contacts sorted by last name. I worked around it by inputting the last name in the first name box and vice-versa. Of course I did this when I first got the phone. I f you have hundreds of contacts in your phone now, well..... that's a bummer. I think your only option is to get Google to come out with a Android OS update.
