There used to be this option to store all contacts to Google by default on the stock Gingerbread for Galaxy Ace but it seems gone when I flashed to CM7-APOCALYPSE-FINAL.
Every time I add a new contact it asks me to choose where to save to Google or not.
Is there a way to fix this? Also, can I replace the default Contacts app of CM7-APOCALYPSE-FINAL with Stock. If yes how where do I get a copy of the stock Contacts app?

Hey guys how do you save new contacts on optimus 2x to Google account by default. I must change from phone contact to google acc. each time when saving new contact, is there any option to set google acc. as default for contacts. Thanks.
Hello,
First can you tell witch rom version you are using? Any third party software to manage contacts?
I don't clearly know how to do it but this first info can clearly help with the answer.

on cm7 you have to choose every time. On the stock rom would not know.
I use stock 2.3.4 and have to choose every time time.
yeah.. it is kind of annoying, buy still it's better than loosing all your contacts..
On O3D I set google acc. as default in options and never ever lose any contact, but also dont have to choose on adding new contact. Thanks for help anyway, why would it be simple, when it can be annoying and complicated.
All you have to do is sign up for the Google back up when you first load the market. It will auto back up apps and contacts. Very useful for flashing. Its free and when you flash a rom you just log back into the market and hit sync at the last page

I'm running cm7 and I've never had to choose where to save. You just select the option to do it everytime.

Hello,
First, excuse my english, its not my native language. Thank you.
I used my HTC One with Cyanogenmod 4.2, recently there was a update to Android 4.3
After updating i lost my google apps as supposed since they are made for Android 4.2. This was my opportunity to get rid of google, so i installed K9Mail with Fdroid and imported my contacts with a .VCF file. Worked well.
I have just one mayor problem, I can't add new contacts to the phone. My phone app always want to add a new concact to my exchange account and i cant change it to anything else. I want to add new contacts to the phone itself, without any accounts like whatsapp/exchange/google...
Second problem that occurred: I can`t edit the contacts from the recently imported .VCF file, my Datamanager hang up every time when i want to add some Details.
Do you guys have an idea how I can add contacts to my phone?
Greetings Nox

Hi,
I have the same problem.
I can't add a contact on CM 10.2 (and before too).

I can't never on the other account on my andoird (outlook, facebook, linkedin, or same local)/
Hi guys! yesterday I installed Cyanogenmod 11 4.4.4Kitkat (2014729) in my GT-I8190 and it works perfectly but i have one problem..
first at all, I'm from Argentina, sorry for my [email protected]#t english
Well, i have a problem whit my contacts provider, contacts manager, contacts app or whatever u call it. The story begins when I did the backup of my contacts, config, networks and messages whit Kies(yup, my bad [NOOB]), once installed CM, kies didnt read my phone(searching in forums I found out that Kies only read phones whit official roms ). Well, I only cares about contacts for now, so looking back to search in forums I could convert my .spb backup archive to a .vcf archive(one for each of my contacts), then I imported them to my phone from the contacts manager(the default in CM) and everything seemed to be fine, but wen I restart my phone and go to the contacts, I dont find them!! There are no any saved contact!!(WTF).
So, here is my solution: replace the default contacts app. I dont want to download other contacts app from the play store and also have the default one. I WANT TO UNINSTALL THE DEFAULT CONTACTS APP AND REPLACE IT WHIT ANOTHER APP DOWNLOADED FROM PLAY STORE OR ANY OTHER SITE. If for do this i need to replace the dialer app to, I dont care.
Can someone help me whit this? Thanks to all

i dont think its possible as all other contacts app such as contact+ and go contacts use the people app for the contact database...why don't you run them side by side..and use only the alternative app as default..i hear contacts+ is a really good option..also supports facebook and google+ sync and best of all its free

Have you checked if show contacts "all contacts" is selected in the options section of your contacts manager?
Just wondering if you anyone can confirm how "Huawei Contacts" can be disabled or removed without any issues. I have disabled it and tried alternative contacts apps like Exdialer, DW Contacts & Phone ....however, editing contacts or creating a new one does not work.
The reason I want to disable it as it may be one of cause of power drain on this phone. It has improved now after trying several issues like formatting sdcard, updating Google Play services, disabling other apps, etc.
Thanks,
B
Have you tried Gapps ? nandroid before ...and please report after
Thanks Vladi, I tend to disable all unnecessary Google apps even Google Play Having installed Google Contacts manually it works but forces you to save your contacts to the cloud (i.e. no local acount options). However, found a solution although not ideal - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fjsoft.mylocalaccount&hl=en (I use fjsoft Phone Manager in any way to install apps, etc). It also cannot import or export vcf file.
Thanks
Tried with Titanium?
How can I replace the huawei dialer with google app? and I want to use google contacts app as default as well.
