Hi guys,
I accidentally hit "Merge with Google" in my Contact settings but I see no where to UNDO Merge with Google.
How get I get it back to the way it was originally?
Thanks!!
just press on the contacts and it should display the details.
there is a field " joined contacts " and if you press on it, you can use the minus sign to separate them

Oh I tried that but the "minus" sign is faded out and cant be selected
Any other possible solutions?
bump....for suggestions
Maybe your contacts arent synchronised with google? Log in on your gmail account and check by yourself.
Also go to settings -> accounts and sync -> your google account and uncheck sync contacts.

Greets,
Does anyone know if its possible to reprogram the messaging button to open a specific email account rather than the full on messaging menu (which includes "setup email" and "outlook email").
Thanks

In your Inbox, click Menu -> Tools -> Options That should bring up the account setup screen and at the bottom is a box that says "Display account picker when opening Messaging" Unchecking that box should take you to your default email account.

Thank you!
...but this opens last account you used. so, if you click sms icon in HTC Home, the next time you click mail icon in HTC Home it will take you to sms inbox.
right now i have Google contacts syncing to my phone. weird thing is, when i log into gmail and look under contacts, there isnt any listed. where does google get list from? I thought logging into gmail and clicking contacts would show me a list of names, but it doesnt. I dont get it.

First:
You need to make sure you enter a new contact by saving to Google.
Contacts that are on your "phone" will not transfer to Google automatically.
You can change your default save location by:
Open contacts
Press menu touch key (key on left side of your phone)
Press MORE
Press SETTINGS
Change: Save new Contacts from: Always Ask to GOOGLE
In Google it saves your contacts under the "My Contacts" tag.
Let me know if you need any other help with this.
p.s.:
If you want your contacts on Google and your phone, the easiest way is to enter them through gmail then let sync push them to your phone. Your phone (should) join the duplicates since they will have the same names and telephone #.
Hi Guys,
I'm having trouble trying to figure out the following.....
I go to the people hub, and then autos to "All" . . . . . The list shows all my contacts, however it shows ALL my HOTMAIL contacts and my Contacts from my SIM CARD.
All I want is the contacts on my sim card LISTED in the PEOPLE HUB, and dont want WP7 to alo use the HOTMAIL contacts list......
Any one know how to do this ???
goto settings. open each of your hotmail accounts and you will find sync options. untick contacts

Hi,
I cant find what you mentioned. Could you write a step by step if you dont mind please, just incase anyone has the same issue ?
1 . Click on Settings Tile
2 . ......etc......
Thanks in advance !!!
settings
email and contacts
tap an email address
select which content you want to synchronize
there is one exception though, your primary Live account, you can only select to sync your mail or not, the contacts will always get sync'd, I kinda got the mess under control via syncing facebook and only showing contacts that matched in email / facebook.
Here's how it SHOULD work:
Swipe to app list
Settings
Swipe to 'applications' settings
select 'people'
swipe down to list of accounts
select the account you don't want contacts for
deselect 'people' from the 'content to synchronise' set of checkboxes.
Sadly, that isn't an option for my Live login, so I have weird random MSN contacts in my list of people alongside the Exchange contacts I actually want.
Annoying! Also, you can't delete the Live account.

Thanks again guys !

I do not own mi3 currently. If you have backup of your trusted contacts, then I think, you can clear your contact list from the settings->App menu (In android devices). Go there and choose contacts.apk app and clear the data ( Please note that it will wipe your all contact list). Make sure to disable auto sync with Google prior to.
Phone app (the one you call from) - Menu - Settings - Organize contacts - Clear all data.

Go to Contacts app
Press Menu key-> Tap on Settings-> Display preferences-> Hide incomplete numbers.
Every contact which doesn't have any associated numbers to it will be hidden from now on :good:

if u wipe all contact list that will also delete from google contacts permanantly
Hi, I've just patched my nexus 6 with 1 March patch.
But honestly I'm not sure if it's from patch or not.
Some of my contacts are doubled, some are tripled, and some have no duplicates.
I checked via web based google contact, and it has no duplicate, just normal.
My other logged account have no contacts at all (even though the contact sync is checked)
I also download contact optimizer app, it gives me no duplicate, and shows normal list.
I go to contacts and try the contact to display, my second account shows only a handful email address (which is true and normal) but my main account shows those multiple contacts
I tried to delete one of the duplicate and end up losing all of the contact. umm..sorry for bad english...i mean ...
i got A, A', and A". deleting A end up losing A' and A"... so i need to re-add the contact from scratch...
the duplicate contain is exactly the same
again, sorry for bad english.
and Thanks.
Assuming you are using the stock contacts app, tap the 3 dot menu, and click "Contacts to display" - is only your primary google account (where your accounts are stored) selected?

btw I solved the problem by clearing the data at google contacts and contact storage.
thanks jj14
