Not all contacts syncing - Nokia 8 Questions & Answers

Hi,
I'm using a Nokia 8 since yesterday. Setup went well, it directly downloaded and installed Android 8.0.
Everything seemed fine, until I noticed that some of my contacts (synced from my Google account) were missing. I tried virtually everything to make them appear:
Invoke the sync manually
Delete data of both the contacts app and the contact storage app
Reset the phone to factory defaults
Export, delet, and re-import all contacts from my Google account
None of this made the missing contacts appear on my phone.
It seems that the contacts affected are (mostly) those which are also linked to a Google+ account. I removed the link to the Google+ profile from three, and afterwards, these contacts appeared on my phone. However, I don't want to do this manually for every contact, and I also found at least one with no link to Google+ who is also not synced.
Oddly enough, I also have a Pixel C running Android 8 with exactly the same version of the contacts app and no sync problems whatsoever.
Does anyone have the same problem or at least some idea what might be causing it or how to solve it? I'm about to return the phone while it is still possible, though I really like it so far apart from this issue.

I'm having the same issue under 7.1.1 on a new Nokia 8. Sorry this isn't much help, I'm hoping the issue will be Google sync related, and rectify itself.
My friends Nokia 8 is not having this issue.

I found a workaround, but it's could be tedious if you have lots of unsync'd contacts.
I loaded up my contacts list in a browser ( https://contacts.google.com ) and on my phone, then manually identified the contacts that had not sync'd.
In the browser I added a character to any field for each of the contacts that failed to sync. Those contacts then immediately appeared on my phone.
Most of the contacts that gave me issues had Google+ profiles. It's pain in the backside, and you shouldn't need to do this, but it does seem to work.

Thank you for you reply. I feel relieved not to be the only one having such problems. I can also confirm that the problems seems to relate to Google+ profiles.
I found out that several people are reporting this problem in the app reviews: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.contacts (at least here in Germany). So it seems this is a bug that was introduced with some update of the app - and hopefully will be fixed soon...

I just reset my phone (again), and now all contacts seem to be synced.
I don't think it has to do with the reset (as this wasn't of any effect before), perhaps Google just fixed the issue...

I'm glad you've resolved the issue with your phone. It's a really nice piece of hardware. I hope you enjoy it.

For anyone who is following the thread and having the same problem, the solution seems to be to clear contacts storage, this isn't the same as clearing data on the contacts app.

Not working here.
Problem here is Google contact not getting WhatsApp contact list or Telegram.
Only Google contacts shown in contacts and all lists are ticked.

[Q] Problems syncing contacts and calendar from default Microsoft account

Hello,
When I first turn on my phone, I added my Microsoft account. Then it downloaded the contacts, calendar events and emails.
Later on I updated a contact and realized that it didn't sync to my phone. I tried doing it manually (keeping my finger on the account and taping Syncronize) but that didn't do it.
So I thought maybe something was wrong so I reset the phone to factory settings, add my Microsoft account and... ONLY 3 CONTACTS copied over. I wipe the phone a second time and I get the same result. Third try, all my contacts are back but still not syncing.
Then I see that the only checkbox available for syncing on my default account is email. So it doesn't seem to sync contacts and calendar (which is weird). So, to test it, I modify an even on my phone and wait. It was never copied over to outlook.com.
Why? Why can't I syng all three easily like it does on my Windows 8 computer?
Did this happen to any one else? What can I do about it?
Thanks
Haven't seen that happening before. Normalyl I would say that a hard reset should fix that problem but given that you already tried that it seems like a rather severe problem. Perhaps there is something wrong with your Outlook.com-Account. You might want to contact their support team?
What phone are you using?

I didn't think of that! I keep trying to debug the phone but yes it could be on the outlook.com side. I'll check that out. Thanks.
I did a test yesterday. I added a new even in my calendar and it did sync. But I modified a contact and that did not sync. Very strange...

Thank you so much for that tip! I got support from them and there was indeed a problem with my account itself which they fixed and now it works fine! :good:

[Q] Sync problems Facebook & HTC One

Since day one I am not able to open my Friends-list in Facebook on my HTC One phone. When clicking on Friends I will get this message: Cannot retrieve friends list. Please try again later. [1/An unknown error occurred]
When checking Settings/Accounts & Sync in Android I will find an red refresh symbol of Facebook and this message: Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly.
I did completely remove Facebook, People and Contacts on my tablet, phone and PC. But after re-installing everything, the problem remains.
I am not able to see my friends list and can not tag friends in a post. Also my contacts pictures in Android are not synced with the Facebook profile pictures.
What can I do to solve this annoying problem?
460 views and 0 replies, damn. Nobody got a clue? I tried to contact Facebook as well, but no help from them either.

Thanks for helping xineis!
I tried those steps but that didn't help either.
I removed and/or cleared:
PC>Facebook>Account Settings>Apps>every single app
Phone>Accounts & Sync>Facebook
Phone>Accounts & Sync>Google
Phone>Apps>All>Contacts Storage
Phone>Apps>All>Facebook (also uninstalled updates)
Phone>Apps>All>Facebook for HTC Sense
Phone>Apps>All>Google Contacts Sync
Phone>Apps>All>HTC Sync
Phone>Apps>All>People
I also removed all contacts from Google contacts on my PC.
After these steps I open Facebook, and after filling in my credentials I choose Sync all. After a few minutes, when I check the Phone>Accounts & Sync>Facebook option I will find an exclamation mark right next to the refresh symbol within Facebook Contacts.
I tried all kinds of configuration but never have been able to solve this issue. Facebook will simply not sync the contacts.
More suggestions please!
Just tried a full wipe but that also does not change anything. Than I tried another Facebook account and that worked just fine. But when I tried mine, same problem remains. Must be an error on Facebook server.
How can I contact Facebook directly? The help function sucks and it seems they just ignore my messages

You even tried the "change password" step?
humm, I don't have the One (yet), but as any Android device it probably has that reset button (is that the "factory reset"?). I know it's a little harsh but it could (maybe) solve your problem...
Have you tried alternative facebook apps like Fast for Facebook and Haxsync? See if they have are having sync issues as well. Also, is your phone 'authorised' by Facebook? Long shot but worth trying

Ok I had the same problem for ages and one day realised that not all syncs were on - under phone settings yes but apps have individual settings that cannot be overridden by your phone... I'm sure you wouldve tried something so simple but just in case - go into your Facebook app on your phone, under the menu tab select 'app settings' and at the very very bottom of the list there is an option for how to sync contacts i.e. none, all or existing only ...
This is probably something that you've already tried but hey, I was silly enough to not realise!!
I'm sorry if this was not much help, aside from blissful simplicity I am unable to assist.
very useful info
Thanks so much for the useful info ^^^....had this same problem and thought it was the recent kitkat 4.4.2 update. Thanks...am sorted

[Q] Exchange Emails not pushing through instantly?

Hi all!
I've had my N6 for about 2 weeks, and crack-flashed 4-5 roms. I've tried 5.0.1 and 5.0.2 roms, stock and aosp, still same issue. I go through my initial setup, punch in gmail info, exchange info, and everything is fine and dandy. Only problem i have is that exchange email is set to push, but im not receiving notifications, nor is it appearing in the email app. i have to manually go in and refresh. I've looked at all the settings, made sure it was push, notifications is enabled, etc. Is anyone else out there having this issue? I've had no exchange problems with my G3. Thanks!
Anyone at all have this same issue? I can't possibly be the only one. This is a deal breaker for me if the phone can't keep up with emails...

No issues with myself and coworker on Exchange 2010 sp3, or my wife with Exchange 2003. If your coworkers aren't having problems, then perhaps try another temp user account to test, if your work will accommodate.
It can't be the phone hardware. It is stock lollipop.

I'd add that my response is predicated on the assumption that you are clean wiping when you tried all of your ROMs.

I just updated my G3 to lollipop and running tests (sending myself emails) and not getting notifications on it either. I'm the netadmin at where i work, so i'm able to go in and remove any phones/accounts as necessary. Cleared all applicable phones from my email account, still having the same issue. Yes, cleared data/dalvik/cache when wiping. all installed roms ran as new. So i'm having the issue in Lollipop. Any thoughts?
What version and patch level is your Exchange Server? . You tried another user (non admin) on your phone, correct?
If you'd like, I will PM you an account to test in my environment, so we can rule out something related to your Exchange environment.
I just activated my nexus 6 and am having the same problem . I can send emails, and I can recieve emails from someone inside of my corporate domain but I cannot receive emails from outside of the domain.

Thanks. Yes, it is. The OP can get synchs but must manually refresh. I get synchs, but only emails from inside of my domain reach me. I thought that it might be worth posting because the problem described seemed to be the closest to the problem that I am having. Whatever is causing the problem is puzzling as I can send with no problems at all

Do you have the same issue when utilizing Outlook Web Access? Unable to receive external emails? If so then it is an server side issue. I find it highly unlikely that you can receive emails from external users when in the office or via Web access, but only internal user emails show up via ActiveSync.

[Q] Facebook Contacts Still Showing in Contacts, Unable to Hide

Hi, I have the T-Mobile Samsung S6 and I synced my Facebook Contacts. I realized the stock Contacts App displays all my contacts, so I selected Customized List under Contacts to Display and unchecked Facebook ALL Contacts. However, even after doing this my Facebook contacts STILL show in the list. Has anyone been successful in keeping Facebook Sync on but NOT having them display under Contacts?

I'm betting you have sync contacts checked within the actual facebook app. Go to the facebook app...then go to app settings....scroll all the way to the bottom.....is sync contacts on?

Yes that is correct. I have it set on "Sync with Existing Contacts". Problem is, instead of syncing with existing contacts, it syncs all of my Facebook contacts and shows it in the Contact phone book, regardless if they were an existing contact or not.

You might want to try out Haxsync from the Playstore. Reviews are good...might be worth the $1.00.
EDIT: I just checked out the app in the playstore....I might be wrong. It hasnt been updated since 2013 lol

lol ok well seems like there isn't a quick solution to this.. .probably something with Samsung or Facebook's side. Thanks for the research though! I recall using Haxsync many years ago as well. It kinda solved some issues with syncing, though not perfect. I doubt any phone really needs it now lol, given no update since 2013

Duplicate contacts on phone app

Hi all,
I just bought the new Xiaomi mi a2, Oreo 8.1.0 with the June's security patch.
And i have duplicate contact on the phone app.
Anyone figured out how to get rid of dupe contacts on the phone app? On the contacts app, they show up fine. But, on the phone app, I sometimes show three listings for the same person - due to whatsapp and duo being added for the same contact.
When i uninstalling the Whatsapp app all the the dupe are gone, but when i reinstall it they are coming back in.
I tried to sync Whatsapp off on Accounts settings, but that didn't help me either, it removed all the dupe, but after i deleted a contact all the dupe came back (this is weird), and when i'm comparing to my friend's settings, he didn't turn off the sync of Whatsapp but his phone app knows how to deal with the contacts.
Please advise,
Thanks.
It´s an android bug. I reported it on android bugtracker last year, marked as future release............but yeah........it´s google.

Just install Google phone app from playstore. It will detect contacts and ask your permission to delete.
There is no way to uninstall the Phone app,
I contacted Xiaomi support,
And this is thier weird answer
Hi Ido,
Greetings from Xiaomi!
Thank you for writing to us.
Sorry for the delay in response.
I understand that you are facing the issue with your Mi A2 due to duplicate contacts. I regret the inconvenience.
With respect to your concern, would like to inform you that this an inbuilt feature of Mi A2/A1 phone that Whatsapp and Google account contacts could not be merged and they remain separately shown in the contact list of the device.
I regret that there is no way to merge the duplicate contacts of both the accounts. We regret the discomfort this may have caused you.
However, I will definitely transfer your feedback to our concerned authorities so that they can work upon the same. We assure you that we would do our best in order to avoid any further inconvenience to our customers. We value your opinion and see it as an opportunity to learn and improve.
Hope your bond with Xiaomi stays forever and we walk a long distance together.
Please get in touch with us if you need any further assistance.
Regards,
Suman

Same here in google phone App. But no problem in google contact app.
No solution yet ?
Turn off contacts sync from Whatsapp account in user and accounts in the settings.
You can delete the whole account and add it again and turn off the syncing
Solution that worked for me. Hope it does for you.
So I had this problem too, I bought the phone just last Monday. I found a solution googling it in other language which suggested the format of the phone numbers saved in your google contacts (or any contact manager you may use), as far as it not the same as whatsapp, the contacts won't merge.
I migrated from an Honor device to Mi A2 and as I exported (yes, exported) my contacts from Google and opened the file in Excel, I noticed there were some special characters between some numbers that were not visible on the phone app. Maybe your previous device or your contact manager does it too. So I basically exported my contacts, deleted every special character between numbers, deleted spaces, deleted all contacts from my google account and imported contacts again from the edited file. I thought that would solve the problem but it didn't. I then edited one of the contacts again to add the country code that was missing for this particular contact (+1 for US) and Google automatically added spaces in certain manner depending if it was a cellphone or a home number (depending of the count of digits that vary in my country), I saved the contact and that specific google contact merged with the whatsapp contact.
So I figured, if I let google apply the spaces (or even special characters for US phone numbers "-") as I delete one digit and type it again (assuming the phone number had no spaces and had already the country code) and save it, the contacts will merge. I did not find a way to do it in bulk, so I had to edit one by one and let google do the formatting for each one. That did the trick for me, no more duplicate contacts.
This worked for new contacts also. Even though when I added a new contact, and it appeared duplicated, because I let google do the formating, after some time it eventually merged.
If you find a way to do it in bulk it would help others save maybe around two hours of editing your contacts. I hope my solution works also for you.
Best regards,
Your savior.
I solved the issue by updating the phone app. If you don't find update in Playstore, go to Apps and uninstall updates of the Phone app (as you can't uninstall the phone app, just uninstall the updates). Once done, you'll find update for Phone app in Playstore. Just update and duplicate contacts issue gets resolved.
I cant delete update the phone dialer app, and cant find any update in playstore...

The uninstall updates option is hidden in the three dot menu on the upper right corner..
I have the same problem as well.Unfortunately installing and reinstalling the phone app didn't work for me. The contacts in the Contacts app are showing ok, but not in the phone app.
Problem solved
Use this apps
Twitch contact formatter
Basically this change a format number of contact into international standard
So any application messaging will recognize and merge the contacts ( i just tested with whatsapp)
1 contact will be have some number in one formated
Ex: mia (if merged correctly)
Xxxxx for native call
Xxxxx for wa
Xxxxx for any messaging
So there is no duplicate number again

I found a solution to this problem. Basically it's some kind of bug in the latest version of Contacts app, not the Phone app.
1. Just uninstall the updates of Contacts app (Settings -> Apps and Notification -> See all apps -> Click on Contacts app -> Click on uninstall updates option in the three dot menu on the upper right hand corner)
2. Just open the Contacts app now, it'll automatically merge the Contacts.
3. If you want, update the app now. The changes will persist.
This app solved the problem for me: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.contapps.android.merger&hl=es

just turn off the contacts sync for whats app
Just bought my A2 and have the same issue with double or ripplet contacts.. Can hide them in contacts but shows in phone app no mather what
Hi All,
Just go to digital well being under settings, then select do not disturb and under exception go to calls. Now select all list of contacts. Now wait for a while. It will merge slowly. Now last things is to deselect all that you want. Now you will no longer see any duplicate entries. It's a sync issue. Go and quick fix it.
Are installing unwanted app for a google problem? ok i have the solution.
go to setting -> account -> whatsapp account in account sync deactivate the sync option.
go to setting -> app -> search for "contacts" app -> storage -> clear storage.
all your contact are going to be removed, and google is going to sincronyze your contact again, without duplicate.
Sorry my english.
i hope this work for you, like is work for me
I solved this issue using Twitch 2! app.
In app settings, remember to enable "com.whatsapp" from providers list, and then just "save selected" in the main screen.
hope it helps.

This method works perfectly, for the latest version of Digital Well being you cannot select contacts, instead you can star duplicate contacts, and then go to accounts and sync contacts for the account. Check your phone app and you will see the starred contacts will be merged into a single contact.
Thanks for sharing this info
