Maybe you had turn on ur auto syns. To solve it, try to turn off ur auto syns, and extract the contact again....Hope that can help..^^
Thanks. I will try it.

Set up synchronization service and store Your contacts in your PC, Google or other provider. That is far more flexible than restoring contacts from SIM - a lot more information per contact is stored.
I´m backing them up as a .vcf to my sdcard via ROM´s stock contacts app, and it works fine.

I had the same problem.... you have to import you contacts from the sim to the phone and then they will show up.

Since I updated to the official 4.0.4 I constantly get contacts and calendar items duplicated. Do you guys have this? Is there a possibility to wipe just the calendar and contacts and resync? Just taking the tickboxes out and putting them back.in the account settings doesn't cut it.

may be the contacts are in your sim too.
Hi
You're not using multiple computers to sync by any chance? Further, if the information comes from Exchange Server, don't bother as you will never get it straight. I've tried everything to sync with Outlook and gave up, MS and Android just don't match

I found a solution. First export exchange contacts to your ext usb and then open outlook and delete exchange contacts. When you delete from your pc your phone contacts will be deleted. Finally import the contacts from your ext usb and sync with your exchange. 2 days left nomore dublicated contacts.

I found a solution. Just flashed Crash ROM v8 based on LRK and problem solved no more duplicate contacts nor calendar items. I am happy again! 4 days now and everything is perfect
Check this thread for solution. Apparently an update to gmail app solves it!

having the same issue contacts creating one additional copy each time it syncs. I have 7 copies of each contact. although you can select show contacts having number only will display only required contacts.
I have this problem, my father is updating his phone from a Samsung Galaxy Pop to a Galaxy S3 mini (So he is used to TouchWiz and Android) so far so good.
There is only one small problem, he had saved all his contacts in the SIM card (Yes, very old fashioned hehe), now I copied all of them to his Google Account, in contacts I selected "only show contacts from Google Account", and it works fine! (Otherwise it should show duplicated contacts. the old ones from the SIM card and the ones in the Google Account).
BUT
When he want to send a SMS and selects the subject, it shows ALL the contacts in the phone (SIM and Google Account), so it's very anoying!
Contact app only shows the desired but SMS app shows all!
Is there a solution for this?
Best regards
Delete the contacts from the sim card.

You could remove Google account, then remove all contact & add Google account back & sync. If you still have double i'd check then in Google dashboard on a pc.
Hello guys
I changed my phone to z. Restored all the contacts from my old phone to new one.
After this is done. For few contacts I can't find their name or number when I search it using smart dial or phonebook search. But when that user calls me up his name n no. Flashes on the screen n stays in the call log. Later vanishes.
Could anyone help me to get all those hidden contacts.
Thank you.

Did you make a backup of all your contacts on Googleaccount on your previous phone
Sent from my C6603 using xda premium
Nope. I dint backup to a Google account.
I used wondershare mobilego.
My old phone was HTC wildfire we could not keep 2 Google accounts in it old version of android so I dint backup n dint want to mess up my primary account.
N in this phone I backed up all the contacts to a gmail account.
But I can't find it in phone.
I.e. When I try to find contacts In phone home screen last tab after favorites. Three persons icon where u can find local groups n Google account
In Google account the count is 0 , though I backed up the contacts.

Go to your contacts, optiond -> filter, expand the gmail account you used and make sure the correct group has a tick in the checkbox.
Thank you.
But in gmail account I checked all the sub fields.
When I backed up all my contacts to that gmail account.
After logging into gmail from my pc I'm able to see those contacts.
But in phone I can't find them under the Google account tab.

Re-sync maybe?
Could be duplicated numbers or names?
Sent from my C6603 using xda premium
Yup.
I had so many duplicates must be *3
Coz I had the Facebook sync on old phone.
That's the reason I used mobilego app to delete the duplicate. It worked well.
Still I have few duplicates. Very few I don't bother much with it.
But if I factory reset n sync my gmail account will I be able to restore my contacts.
I doubt coz I'm not able to find them in my phone.
I'm planning to root. So will have to be doing a factory reset many times. I'm new to root.

Resynced everything contacts calender etc.
No change

Sync your contacts to Google than open your gmail on your pc and check if all your contacts are there before doing a factory reset.
In gmail there is an option to merge all duplicated contacts
Sent from my C6603 using xda premium
This happened to me too. I found out the contacts merged somehow O_O it's apparently a problem that other people have (Google it) as well. I painstakingly just unmerged every single one manually
Check if the contacts are merged!

My Z merges contacts with every single reset or flashing of the phone. Became a bit wearisome.
guys i lost all of my contacts while copying data from the phone to pc...all i did was copy all the data from the phone to pc..nothing related to contacts... already tried data recovery...any solutions??

You havent synced your contacts with any of your google accout? Also dont you copy contacts once a while in your SD Card or PC using apps such as Superbackup?
Just asking cause the best thing with android is that your contacts are always safe of you sync it with your google account.
As far as your problem is concerned I dont know why this would happen. Did you try a reboot or check the settings as to what contacts are shown. Else i am sorry to say but i think your contacts are gone.

If u have a google account on ur phone justs go 2 " google.com/contacts " when u sing up in the ur browser, and try 2 restore ur contacts and make some export on the pc in vcard format.
If u have no a google account, that's is bad for u. Also u can wach the vcard file on ur memory card, m8bee u make export contacts before.
