back up to google is on... could that be the cause of this problem? A quick check in xda shows that I am not the only one.
could be, but not sure, you can turn it off and test it just in case.

Same exact problem for me. Can you please share your ROM configuration. I am on Crash ROM v7
think you need to check your google contacts and remove duplicates there.
Thats a good idea, you can merge contacts via comp browser. Or remove them there if they are there. Then possibly switch of after duplicates on phone are removed contacts sync.
Could be the culprit. Best to check where the duplicates are stored before trying by opening duplicate and checking which account it is saved under.

Gents, i really do think this is a bug. I too have the issue only with my work exchange account. The issue wasnt there before the latest German rom LRK. I have tried removing the account and recreating it but it happens again......
Can you others with this issue please post the rom version.
Also please dont suggest merging contacts as that isnt a fix to this issue
Ok, was just eliminating possibilities

Hey guys!
Don't know if that is possible on any ROM but for me (when I still was on a "normal" ICS ROM.. currently I'm on MIUI searching for a good ICS ROM) it worked out kinda like that... (On MIUI thats not possible...)
I don't remember very well how the option was named but if you go to your contacts and press menu one of the options on the bottom brings you to a list where you can choose from which source you want your contacts be taken from... Like SDCard, SIMCard, Google Account, Facebook, etc... just choose one source where you know every contact you need is saved and there you go.. You don't have any duplicated contacts anymore...
But maybe I'm remembering wrong and it was on the stock GB ROM from Samsung... Sorry guys it passed some time since my MIUI flash so I can't remember very well... But hope it helped somehow...
Guys the problem is only with exchange office 365 account, a corporate one in my case. I don't even have google contacts syncing. Everything in Outlook is great just one item on calendar, and just one contact.
The duplicates are only on the Note. I am on Crash ROM v7 4.0.4.
Maybe 4.0.4 ics is the problem...

Not necessarily. I have an on premise Exchange 2010 at work, not O365 and I have the issue.

Are you on 4.0.4?
maybe previously retained items are maintained, In that case switch off sync, make backup of outlook items, so incase anything goes wrong you can reimport if 365 has that opportunity.
Then set sync one way to phone on phone, and delete all contacts and calender items on phone. This could be done automaticslly not sure, when delting sync acount in accounts. Maybe from there you can delete data to, Then setup synch again, check if its push and if thats not supported there are any options regarding full synch on every synch. Also switch off option to allow duplicates to be created if its there.
This could work, try it and report back

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.

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.

how many times?
Havent tried myself but something is here
iCal can sync with Google Calendar, and Outlook 2011 can sync with iCal.
So: Google Calendar --> iCal --> Outlook 2011 for Mac
1) Set up you Google Calendar in iCal.
To do this, open iCal, go to Preferences, select the Accounts tab, click the '+' (plus) sign to add an account. In the Add account dialogue, select Gmail from the drop down menu. Enter your Gmail (or Google apps) email address and password and click Create. Proceed to Outlook 2011.
2) Configure iCal sync in Outlook 2011.
Go to Outlook Preferences and choose Sync Services in the bottom of the window. Tick the Calendar check box. In the accounts window it will say 'On my computer'. This is correct, as iCal does the sync'ing to your computer.
Wait a few minutes (or perhaps close/open Outlook) to see your calendar entries appear. You can always double check that they appear in iCal first

skip samsung and use email or exchange, set it up for push. Thats most battery friendly

I use MyPhoneExplorer for that purpose - a very reliable way to sync with Outlook (and create backups for contacts, sms, etc).

+1. Just add your email/corporate account details in the setting page.

I bet you haven't tried Google.
I wonder why the search function in PlayStore does not find this app. Using google, I found it under Google Play. However, it states that it is not compatible with my Galaxy Note! Anybody knows what is going on?
play store on the phone will not show u apps that are not compatible with the phone u using it on

assuming you have PC at work: google calendar sync, beware - you need admin rights to install it, then it sits quietly in system tray and sync at given intervals
I have a S3 and a lumia 820. I really like a bit of both. One app I am always dissatisfy on a S3 is the stock email app! Is there any email app like on the windows 8 phone for an android device?

For which protocol?
If just imap, you should try kaiten, if you need proper exchange support tty touchdown

I cant get my FB contacts lists and pictures to import/sync into my 'people'.
I enjoy having the small profile pictures next to my contacts, was simple on my WP, cant get the Moto X to do it.......
If it doesn't work by default and removing and re-adding your fb account doesn't resolve the issue either, try downloading Haxsync from the Play Store.. Works for me!

same here
I'm facing the same problem and on the sync page I get a forever syncing. (config> accounts> fb).
I tried re-adding fb account, but no success.
Anyone with a solution? or got it working?

I think android and fb have issues with his because Google wants there Google+ pictures to appear. Its been off and on through updates with my last moto phone. I use sync.me and make it sync whenever I open it. It will also give you a list of contacts its not sure about so you can easily click "yes that's the person" or "no that's not the person" if the name is listed not exactly correct. I would use third party apps because figuring out the Facebook syncing profile pics is virtually impossible. IMHO

Yes you do need jellybean workaround.

You need both.. Jb workaround is not standalone. Its dependent on full app. Works like a charm tho!

Installed both, worked pretty well!
Still not synced up with all my FB contacts info and pictures. Any other tricks?
