[Q] How to remove Gmail and Hotmail (samsung mail) contacts from contact list?

Hi,
All my gmail and samsung (hotmail) contacts are showed in 'Contact'. I managed to remove samsung (hotmail) contacts from Phones contact but I cannot find a way to delete Gmail contacts from phones contact list.
I deleted 'Samaung mail' (hotmail) contacts by removing the account but it is not allowing me to remove my gmail account (Prompting me to factory reset).
Please help me. My phone contact list is full of gmail and hotmail friends and contacts copied to SIM card don't even show up in the contact list. How can I remove Gmail and hotmail from phones contact?
Thanks in advance.

hi, how did you do the hotmail contact import? which sofrware you use?
i tried that but failed.

So you want to Import all you hotmail contacts to phones contact list? or you want to delete them from your contact list?

If you just want to hide them you can go to the contacts app then hit the menu key and choose display options and deselect "Google". This doesn't remove the contacts from your phone but will hide them in your contacts list.
Hope this helps.

OMG...Thanks you very much littlegreiger. I was annoyed by all those unwanted contacts in Contact list.

Thanks for the tip!

The best way to deal with this is to go into options and tick the box that says "Show only contacts with phone numbers" ...

@ Roy Ngan ...Just add your hotmail account using 'Samsung Email' app. All the contacts from that accout will be added to your phone contact list.

Import Contacts from Hotmail Into my Samsung Epic 4G Sprint phone
I just got rid of my HTC touch pro cause of hacking problems and low security and decided to try the EPIC SAMSUNG 4G provided with SPRINT..so far Im not impressed with the flexibility of many applications such as the blue tooth is far less flexible in features then with the WINDOWS mobile and its apps...I also am having a hard time getting rid of downloaded notifications at the top of the app that appear after you make a sync and send over contacts or other files.....Were am I going with this?...I tried to move my contacts over by importing them into the new devise like it would work with a windows mobile devise by simply adding the hotmail account. That doesnt work at all or didn't for me! I set up the hotmail account but there was not option to import the contacts after. None of my 1000 contacts imported into the new EPIC phone. So I attempted to do a blue tooth sync. This also didn't, work It said it sent across 998 files for contacts but instead it only sent over 400 now I dont know what is missing and need to completely restart the phone to try another method. I have tried going into the sprint store and moving contacts their but they are not any better. The last time I tried to transfer my contacts from one HTC to another they moved the contacts but omitted the notes section and also the category leaving me clueless to who the people were since many have the same name and I left notes, it did this to all 800 contacts at the time. It seems this is a pain in the butt. Does anybody know how to import hotmail contacts efficiently into the EPIC PHONE ..Help.

Hi All,
I'd like to come back to the original question:how to delete a bunch of contacts.
I know how to show only the ones from google, but the others are still there and I want to set the space free. deleting them one by one is an effort I'd like to avoid.
Thanks

[Q] Exchange Calendar sync problem

Hi to All,
I'm a newbie both to forum and to android and am finding the new operating system
frustrating.
I need to sync my work Outlook Exchange email and calendar. I've managed to receive, send and access my emails (thought the filing structure could be a whole lot better) and sync my contacts. My problem is that I cannot get my work calendar to work/sync with my Galaxy S even though my handset is set to sync contacts, it's driving me mad.
I have tried "touchdown" and "K9" mail handlers without success.
As a convert from iphone, which worked perfectly, I'm beginning to regret my decision.
Does anyone know if this is a problem with android or can offer any advice.
I should mention that I don't understand the whole google mail thing, even though I have a account.
Also, i have tried and am very fed up with resetting to factory defaults in attempts to resolve my issue.
Thanks in advance.

It looks to me that the settings are correct, have you got that calendar showing? Settings, agenda's, select the work calendar.

Thanks for your reply weirder,
I should have mentioned (!) that that when I try to launch calendar I get the message
"sorry, the application calendar storage (process com.android.calendar) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again" with the only option to force close.
Presumably, when you say "Settings, agenda's, select the work calendar", I would only get these options if I could launch calendar?
Thanks

I would really appreciate some help here.
Does anyone else have issues with the calendar crashing or sync with outlook calendar.
Like many others, I really like this handset and am desperately hoping that samsung see fit to address the issues that spoil an otherwise superb product.
I want the new Tab when it's released in the uk, but am worried I'll have more of the same silly issues

I've not long changed from 2.1 to 2.2 andriod on my SGS. Ths standard exchange sync workd for me along with touchdown, i even had K9mail running as well until I sussed that I could use the phones exchange, and mainly used touchdown for tasks and calendar. TD calendar allows you to add a catogory.
2.2 is also working well for me i'm even using the 'push' hotmail setting on an exchange account.
Sorry it dosn't help you out though.

Well, I have nearly the same problem!
I have an own server running with Zarafa + Z-push. I can sync my contacts and mails without any problems, but my calender is unsynct. The only difference is, that I can use my phones calender and don't get a FC.

I played around a bit yesterday an found out something interesting.
Thx to adirtymonkey for the tip with touchdown.
Whe a use touchdown I can sync everything without any problems as long as I use Touchdown to manage the calendar and so on. Unfortunately the stock calendar ist empty. Contacs are visible in both, stock and touchdown. I recognized, that I can chose to insert new contacts either in phone, sim, goggle, business or touchdown. New calender entries can only go to own calender or google. Here is the problem, there is just the exchange (business) calender missing i think!
Before playing around with zarafa and z-push over Active sync I tried to use a SyncML client with egroupware. Here I hand a similar problem. Beside my business (exchange) account, it seemed that the syncML client (synthesis) made another accout and wanted to sync to this one. Trying to create a new account gave me alwas a FC, deleting synthesis helped to recover the problem.
Btw, I'm using JPC firmware atm. I will try JM7 these days.

You are right, its the settings in the calendar app.
FC isnt a good thing. Does it "Force close" if you remove the synchronisation to that exchange server? Or only if you got the sync enabled?
Could be there is a problem in there.

Dustymil59,
You are not alone, I experience the same issue in the past.
What I did to over come this (don't guarantee this will work, but at least it works for me)
I usually do this first time right after I flash my firmware and rooted, so you may need to consider to enter recovery mode and clear all user setting before you start this.
1. Setup one account one after the other.
Do not setup google and exchange at one go, and let the 2 accounts sync back to back.
Go to Settings > Account and Sync > Add Account.
2.I usually setup google account first (for market access), but I will only allow contact and gmail sync from google. I have calendar and picasa web sync disabled. Allow gmail and contact sync complete the run. You may also check that all your google contacts sync to your phone before move the step #3.
3. Setup exchange account after #2, the objective is to allow first Exchange sync without any issue. For the first timem allow only sync for 1 day (do not select even 3 days). And allow your exchange first sync run until it finish. (the sync duration vary, I have more than 3000 calendar events, my first sync takes around 30 min to complete).
My Setting > "Push", Sync for 1 day, sync contact, sync calendar (you can change the setting here after the first sync is completed)
4. While exchange sync is running, let the phone idle, do not leave the add account sync and do not attempt to on calendar while exchange calendar doing the first sync, high chance that you will experience force close and the sync will be halted.
5. To confirm the exchange calendar has been sync down without opening calendar, download agenda widget, pull it out at the desktop, configure it to show your exchange calendar by the "calendars" tab (do not touch on "Manage calendar" option in agenda widget setting too, FC is expected during your first exchange calendar sync)

}
You should see all your category at this tab before all the sync complete
PS: It's not that your calendar will not sync, but it will be come harder to get the entire calendar after the first attempt failed.
From my experience, I got the entire calendar sync down 1 week after my first attempt failed, that was because I leave my phone idle over the weekend.
PS again: Notice the email program allow you to setup a name (which is optional) at the end of the email setup, try to stick with the same name, else SGS will create multiple name in Agenda Widget and at the end confuse you yourself.
Let me know the step above helps.

Maybe I got lucky but I just setup my Exchage account in the Samsung email app (part of social hub) and everything seemed to work perfectly... calender, contacts and email, no problems or crashes.

my calendar has the following setup which i suspect makes the calendar sync tends to fail.
1. multiple repeated event (like every month end, need to have month reports preparation, weekly meeting and etc) with no end date
2. add in chinese lunar calendar as secondary calendar and have repeated event on that calendar
3. > 3,000 events (close to 4,000 now) within the last 2 years.
So you can see the amount of data sync is a lot.

Hi,
I have experienced a strange syncing behavior:
It does sync only in one direction: downwards.
If I make a new item in the calendar on my destop PC, it comes to my phone "immediately".
But if I make an appointment on the phone (and of course I choose the exchange calendar for the place), it won't show up on my desktop. I tried to sync manually, with Outlook running or closed, but no success, the appointment remains only on my phone...
Therefore this syncing method is totally useless for me...

firmware that you are using?

[Solved] Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server

The error is misleading as it has nothing to do with connections, i tried on 3G/H and WiFi, and simply because the phone sync just fine all the other google accounts in the phone, and can download/upload stuff without any connection error, Android Market and Apps Brain works fine as well.
before it was working fine i was able to add like 5+ accounts in there, i were able to delete and re-add accounts, but the last few days it has been unable to do that, due that error message.
but if i add the same account that worked, or those that failed on another SGS factory reset, then it works fine.
problem is.... i don't really want to re-install my 200+ apps in the phone....
I already tried wipe-ing the caches, it didn't help.
Any body else got a clue what else we can delete to reset the google accounts in the phone?

no body have seen this before?

Never had this problem but you can try to go to Settings> Applications > Manage Apps and find those from google and press clear cache and clear data

i did mentioned, it has already been done on the original message and it still gets that error message.

i even tried this app
CacheCleaner
http://www.appbrain.com/app/org.lsartory.cachecleaner
it fixed up a lot of other stuff but not gmail accounts...

Got the same problem...even tried a factory reset and it still won't let me sign into my google account on the market.
Doing my head in now.
Logicalstep

I had that issue when I first tried to setup my account. I took out the SIM and just used WIFI to sign in and it worked.
Or you can try this:
1. adb remount
2. adb shell
3. su
4. rm /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db

I believe the above method will reset your home screens or something, so use at your own discretion. Details can be found here: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=3477

ahh no, what that does is deletes
settings.db
from
com.android.providers.settings
it might work, but that will sucks as i'll have to reconfigure all the accounts again, doing that will delete all the accounts that are currently working.

the only time i had that issue i solved it by making sure that background data and auto-sync were checked in the general sync settings. without them being checked i could not add an account over wifi or cellular data. as soon as i checked those boxes i was back to normal

all my 7 other accounts are checked to sync everything
i'm trying to add a new account but it's giving me that weird error
even if delete an exisiting working account and try to re-add it back, then it gives me the same error
it definitely might have to do with the settings file getting corrupted or something

Have had the same problem and exact same messgae yesterday after I wiped my device. It wasnt until evening that I was able to log into my Google account and that was after doing another wipe form the phone settings instead of doing through the 3 button reset. Eveything works fine now but still can't understand why this happened.

I had the same problem yesterday, wiped using the 3 button and problem persisted. Wiped from device and now it works ;D

Same problem for me. I am trying to add a Google apps account and get this message.
Planning a full wipe with froyo so will try a device wipe instead of a Recovery Wipe

i'm also waiting for the froyo uprade
since froyo will delete everything, i might as well wait until then
not fun having to click OK install 410+ apps+games (that's around 800+ clicks ok to continue)

found the source of the problem
this will work fine as long as you DO NOT INSTALL the Samsung Push Email & IM from Samsung Apps
just recently i had to format my phone twice for software bugs when testing out new features in newly installed software
and both times i was able to add any amount of Gmail accounts i wanted into the phone, until i install the Samsung Push Email & IM, as soon as i do that, i lose the funtionality to add more gmail accounts into the phone.
The solution it's obvious, don't install Samsung Push Email & IM... if you want o be able to have the full feature gmail account added to the phone.
it's sad, as the Samsung Push Email & IM works really really good for IM and multi email accounts and you get it right as they arrive to gmail, hotmail, yahoo, etc.
now i'm looking for 3rd party email and IM programs to replace Samsung Push Email & IM
i'll most likely go back to Fring and K9 until i can find something better

Same thing happened to me....but i found that of you add your account through YouTube and sync through there, it works. Weird but simple work around for me. Hope it helps.

i don't think we are talking about the same thing here...

I had two gmail accounts synced. I deleted one by accident, and when I tried to re-add my gmail account under gmail or settings (under accounts and sync) it would hang and give me the same error message as you. It wouldn't connect to Google even though my connection was fine. I did some research, and apparently it's not an uncommon problem. The workaround that exits is to register your Google account through your YouTube app, after which your gmail for that account will be synced now. Try it, it worked for me.

[Q] POP3 mail sync problem

have you set up pop3 mail on the galaxy note? do you have problems?
I set it up to sync every one hour, but it seems to me it is never sync (except when I manually sync it). it hasn't sync itself for over a week. What's your experience? is there any other setting that can affect this behaviour?

The fun part is my GMAIL app on this device does not refresh until i do it manually. I have done all the settings that need to keep it as alive as a PUSH mail ...
I am not that keen on replying my GMAIL as it arrives, so NBD ..
let me know if you do find a solution...

looks like the Sync and notification system on the GNote is not very well implemented,waiting to see how things turn out in the promised ICS,meanwhile just get the official Microsoft email app from the Market called:Hotmail Seven+, this app will push the emails as they arrive.
And forget about the POP3 its nothing like the Iphone.

Set your gmail with email application
Here you have to go like this
add user id n pw of gmail
Now select manual setup
Select Microsoft active sync
Keep id n pw as it is
On swrver part there will b gmail.com, that you have replaced with m.google.com
Now next screen you can set push service n other setting as per you wish.
Hope it will real push mow.

Pop mail doesnt work
I have been reading these posts and I have a similar problem. I can get e-mail on my Nexus s (running 2.3.4). I have many post from different websites, followed their advice and I STILL CANT GET my pop mail to work. I have several accounts, one critical as I volunteer w/ search and rescue. I don't think I should have to convert to strictly G mail accounts, & shouldn't have to forward my mail to G mail either.I love this phone, looking forward to the system update, but this is so frustrating I almost want to ping this thing off the wall! Anybody had similar issues and actually managed to fix it?

I guess easy option is to use 3Rd party email app too configure your pop emails.
Use k9 or anything like that. There are lots of free apps in the play store for that

Ok, heres the update. My mail IS now working (after a fashion). I get a notification that I have mail. I can click on the mail in notifications, read it & reply. I can also, open my contacts list, select a contact & send mail no problem. The one issue I am having now is that if I get mail, it DOESN'T show up in my in box. My sent mail box shows the mail I have sent, but I only seem to be able to open my mail under the notifications tab. And even then, occasionally when I click on that mail, it just disappears. I have only had this Nexus S for a couple of weeks and so I imagine this is just growing pains for someone w/ their first smart phone. Any ideas as to what I am doing wrong?

How to get Google Contacts in phone dialer?

Does anyone know how to get Google Contacts visible in the contact app that comes with the phone?
The issue is, I cant dial anyone thats in my Google Contacts!

I guess you have the Chinese version of the phone, if so you need to go on Hiapp download the contact and calendar sync app (and all other major Google apps) login and in setting account do a sync, if you still can't see the contact restart and try again, if you still can't see it in account, logout of the Google account and sign in again. Hope that helps.

I still dont see Google Contacts and Sync at all in my Hiapp though. I've looked everywhere and typed different things into the search bar. I have an idea though, there is a share button when you get into any app on the hiapp store - could you maybe share the link? This might work.
FIXED! I unchecked auto Sync for all accounts > rebooted > installed Google Contact Sync via an APK on google > rebooted > contacts appeared in the accounts section> enabled Sync and all my contacts appeared under the phones default contacts app.!

Unfortunately I still can't get it working. I tried every which way, tried your steps above and still nothing. I can't get it to appear under Accounts/Google. Quite frustrating.

Turn off auto sync under accounts menu it's the bottom middle icon. Then reboot and it will appear, if you still have problems post back and I'll do screenshots.

Incoming fix...
Lets start from scratch to make it simpler.
Remove Google Contacts via the apps section of the phone
Download Google Contact Sync APK and install it (Even if you already have it) get this one: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/googl...gle-contacts-sync-6-0-1-android-apk-download/
Reboot phone
Go into permission manager and select Google Contacts Sync and make sure it is set as "Trust this app"
Then go into Apps via Settings and search for Google Contacts Sync and select permissions, make sure "Contacts" is enabled as per screenshot http://anonpix.com/images/2016/05/16/7qEOb.png
Reboot phone
Check your accounts and you should see Google Contact Sync
Let me know how you go.

Thank you very much sir

I did all this but still couldn't see the contacts in my google account. I uninstalled and then installed an older apk from apkmirror (4.0.4 instead of 6.0.1), and that solved the problem for me. HiApp immediately updated it back to 6.0.1, but it still seems to be working.
