trigger populateFields on Task (before insert,before update)
{
 map<id,list<task>> whoids = new map<id,list<task>>();
 for(task t :trigger.new)
 {
 if(t.whoid!=null)
 {
  if(!whoids.containsKey(t.whoid))
  {
  list<task> temp = new list<task>();
  temp.add(t);
  whoids.put(t.whoid,temp);
  }
  else
  {
  whoids.get(t.whoid).add(t);
  }
 } 

}
list<task> tasks = new list<task>();

for(contact c:[select id,Name, MobilePhone,Title from contact where id in:whoids.KeySet()])

{
//for(task t :whoids.get(c.id))
 
 for(task t :trigger.new) {
   t.Mobile__c =c.MobilePhone;
   t.Title__c =c.Title;

Hi Chitral,

Use this below code. It will work.. let me know if it will not work..

trigger populateFields on Task (before insert,before update)
{
   set<id> whoidset = new set<id>();
   for(task t : trigger.new)
   {
      if(t.whoid != null)
        whoidset.add(t.whoid);
   }
   map<id,contact> contactmap = new map<id,contact>([select id,lastname,MobilePhone,title from contact where id in: whoidset]);
   for(task tt :trigger.new)
   {
       if(tt.whoid != null && contactmap.keyset(tt.whoid))
       {
             tt.Mobile__c = contactmap.get(tt.whoid).MobilePhone;
             tt.Title__c = contactmap.get(tt.whoid).Title;
       }       
   }
}

Try and put system.debug lines in the trigger to see if the values are being copied over to:
 t.Mobile__c =c.MobilePhone;
 t.Title__c =c.Title;

start the debug logs for your user and see if the values are coming in these fields..
