[Q] creating new contacts - problem

How do I create a new contact in "my contacts" group ?
I'm trying to create a new contact, but it always goes in "motoblur" and "gmail" group NO matter which group I'm viewing it still goes to "motoblur" and "gmail" .
Then when I sinc contacts with gmail, all newly created contacts go to "other" group in my google accout and all my existing contacts are in "my contacts" group.
So how do I create new contact that automaticaly saves in "my contacts" group?
Or, how do I move contacts from one group to another ?
thanks for the help.
...so, no one know how do I create a new contact in a specific group !? No one using groups in his phonebook ?

"All Contacts" vs "My Contacts"

Gmail automatically adds contacts you've emailed into your contact list, they belong to "All Contacts" group.
Manually added contacts belong to "My Contacts" group.
But I couldn't get the phone to display *only* "My Contacts". (Contacts -> Hide/Show -> Google...)
Tried Googling the issue, solutions available but don't seem to work on Defy/Motorola.
Any idea?
Thx in advance.
Anyone...?
I have the same problem, which I posted to the Motorola Owners forums as well, only I don't just want to not display those contacts, but prevent then from syncing as well. I can't yet post working links:

After syncing my new Defy with my Google account, I've found all the contacts in the phone - not just the meaningful ones from My Contacts that have phone numbers and names - but every last single email address has created a separate contact in the phone.
My question is this: how can I limit the synced contacts to a group, like My Contacts in GMail?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So far, I have not found a way to limit the display or the syncing of these contacts.
There are 2 apps for contacts, the one that is embedded in the dialer (the one that SUCKS), and the other is a stand alone Contacts which allows yo Manage groups in a certain way. I'd like to have good one embedded in the Dialer next to Recent and Favorites.. but im no dev. An certainly is annoying having to switch between them.

Contact Managment

Hey,
Got a question....when I am in my contacts and groups I see at the top it says:
Not Assigned (22) then under that it reads:
Integrated groups and under that are my groups
Starred In Android
Co-Workers
Family
Friends
My contacts
No in Gmail contacts the only groups I have are starred in Android and My Contacts.
How do I remove Co-workers, family and friends
How do I remove the Integrated groups, I ONLY want Gmail contacts.
I did turn off all the other contacts from Skype, FB, etc....
Any and all information will be greatly appreciated.
Ciao~
Ok, I deleted SKYPE and that removed the not assigned contacts.....getting closer...
did you find a solution?,i dont want the standard groups as i want to make my own ones instead, i dont see why we must have stock ones when we can create groups

[Q] How to alphabetically sort contacts in group?

If you add contacts into a group (says Favorite), those newly added contacts will be put at the end of the group, regardless of the contact name. How can we have it alphabetically sort the contact?
I know that Sense 4 allows to custom sort the contact in group, but why don't they alphabetically sorted by default (like any other phones)? It's kinda annoying if you add new contact to group and have to see where it should go.

Group messaging/emailing ??? (noob question)

Not sure if this is possible... I sms/mms/email a lot to my kids/family. And I find myself sending articles, pictures, etc to the same 2 or 3 contacts. Is there a way to make a group "KIDS" for example, that would contain the 2 or 3 contacts instead of adding each contact separately ? I've looked, and I sure can't figure it out.
Yes go to contacts and then groups tab. Hit the menu button and make a new group . On the bottom of that screen you will see add member. Click that and add people to your new group.
Now to send a message to that group go back to contacts and click the group tab. And long press the group you just made. You will see options to email and message
