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

Hello all,
I cannot seem to get my Gmail contacts to stop importing into my phones contacts.
This is a problem because I use Craigslist a lot, and keep getting random emails and pictures of people I don't know in my phones contacts.
Any help is always appreciated

See that's weird, I had done that, but when I downloaded the music app to use the music cloud it resynced them all. Anyway, thanks, hopefully it doesn't happen again

I have created Facebook account and it's working in socialhub but I couldn't get the contacts to sync with device. In GB there will be an option to check whether do or do not sync contacts. But I couldn't find it in ICS. How to solve this?

go to your contacts and hit settings. then accounts. Then check off the "sync" icon next to facebook
^^ Copy That.
Else you can do one more thing. Reinstall the FB app. Once I got stuck in somewhat similar thing like that.
I found that my facebook application which was restored by titanium backup didn't actually sync well with contacts. so had to reinstall.
I checked it and its in green color. When I go further it shows only messages and calendar. It didn't show up contacts. Any idea?

I'm talking about inbuilt social hub which lets the contacts to sync with Facebook account.. Can I re install that?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Why don't you use the fb app which is AVAILABLE in market. It also syncs in the same way.
Sure it will work.. But I don't wanna pile up with apps. Social hub has to do this job and I wanted to do it. Actually when I was GB I'll remove all social hub related apps (twitter account, linked account, even default mail app) except Facebook account, still it was syncing contacts flawlessly. Now I wanted the same. Does ICS doesn't have that capability??

Should I remove all Facebook items from ICS and install third party apps from market?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Well I think you should wait for some more time till a solution comes out. I had the same problem with SocialHub. I chose over FB Market App since I didnt have time & wanted to get my contacts asap back. :/ Still will send you any info which might be helpful on this topic
Thanks.. Just now Google it... It seems there is a bug in ICS that stops sync contacts particularly in contactsprovider.apk. We need to add some .xml file it seems. Which is too tech for me so m gonna search some other option for this.

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.
How to disable SIM on my contacts? I only want to appear my google contacts and saves evrything. Thanks

They shouldn't show up unless you import them. If you view your address book on google using a web browser do these contacts show up? You should be able to delete them.
Menu display contacts.
