I had to hard reset my phone and before I did this I had all my contacts (phone and google) saved to my sd card. Well I can no longer find them. And when I synched my FB acct to my Evo, some contacts only have an email and no number. When I try to link the FB name to their acct they are unsearchable. Also when I manually go to a FB contact and try to edit to add the number, the eidt option is not available. One other thing when I go to the ppl icon and hit menu and vie, next to phone ther is ZERO entries. But Google and FB have a ridiculous amount of contacts......CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME???
i have linked all my contacts from my facebook with there numbers in my phone book, but only a few of my friends default pictures show up as there contact picture... is there any way to get all of there default pictures to be there contact picture? i cant for the life of me figure out why only a few friends pics are there any no one elses... any help?
I would guess it has to do with the difference in naming conventions between your phone and facebook. For instance someone may be John A. Smith on your phone's contacts, and John Smith on Facebook. That seems to be what happened when I synced mine anyhow.
I haven't looked into manually syncing up contacts, but it *may* be possible, or maybe not. In any case, this was my experience and what I assumed happened to make some pictures pull over and others not.
Hope it helps a bit!

that could be, but even the facebook friends i have that i dont have in my phone book dont have pictures... and the ones that i had in my phone book i linked to there facebook to its one contact... its really not a big deal but i just wanted to know if there was any specific way i could possiby get all there pictures to go to my contact list.
before joining them together you have to make one of the contacts as default then join and default one will be the first one including the picture
You have to pick which contact picture you want to use. The default will be the contact's GMail image. If the contact doesn't have a GMail image, it will use the FB by default. To change the image, go to contact, edit contact, and scroll down to the contact's FB information, touch the FB picture and select "Use this image". From there on out, your contact picture will always be his/her FB image.
Hi all,
Hope someone can help with this question.
Every time i save a vcard with contact info it automatically saves the card as a phone contact. I would like to be able to save all my contacts automatically as Google contacts. I really don’t care if I don’t have the option for sim or phone contacts as never use them and don’t think I ever will.
I would be most greateul for any help.
Thanks,
Martin
I'm trying to save a new contact as a google contact but it's only giving me the option to save to sim an phone. Any idea on how to fix this?
Anyone else having issues with their contacts not showing contact photo's that is stored on Gmail, it was fine this morning, now all images are not showing on my phone contacts, I did do a sync, but still not showing. If I log in to Gmail from PC contact photo's are there. I was playing in the contacts settings on my phone, but never really did anything. Anyone has any thoughts.
Update: I looked everywhere and could not find a solution. So I decided to delete my Gmail account and then set it back up again and all contact photos are back. So now you know what to do if it happens to you, cheers. :good:
