hi people in previous month my cousin has inserted her SIM card in my phone so all her numbers saved to my phone book and then to Google account, i was thinking that i can use phone and just ignore those phone numbers but after some time they started annoy me. I deleted them and when i connect to wi-fi they appear in my phone again. I can't off contact sync because I'm always testing my new ROMs ( if I turn it off there wont be any contacts anymore). I searched lots of forums but doesn't found anything about it. Do you have any ideas about it?
You can do it from your gmail account

can you tell me where exactly you found it?
If i remember correctly there should be a tab called contacts on the main page after you login. Was it the upper left corner?

If you delete from phone, It'll sync and delete from google account too.

Unfortunately I don't believe there is anyway to pick and choose.
You can set it to sync with existing contacts but that's about it.
Part of why google was talking about dropping support

Yeah so really the only way is to have it sync with existing, at least that limits what syncs
My friend broke his screen on his HTC trophy and he is unable to see anything on the screen. He cannot put in his password to unlock the phone. Does anyone have any ideas on how to transfer the contacts? Cellibrite will not work because the phone cannot be unlocked because the broken screen....

Phone is not unlocked.

He doesn't need to; they will all transfer automatically when he puts his sim card into a new windows phone and logs into his live account associated with his original phone. If he needs to see his contact have him visit his windowsphone.com account and view contacts.
If no sim card, no worries, just sign into new phone using the live id he used on the trophy.
I think that is part of the problem. He never did have a windows live account.
Sent from my HTC ThunderBolt using XDA Premium App
He had to set one up at some point to use the market, built in services like Office & Skydrive, Find My Phone ect. He's either got a "live" or "hotmail" account, and that is where his contacts will be stored. He could have had them sync elsewhere in addition to that (like gmail ect)
He has his replacement phone which is a HTC trophy as well. He has the phone up and going but his contacts are not there. What should he log into to bring up his contacts? Window market, his email account,... sorry for the newb question. I am use to android.
Sent from my HTC ThunderBolt using XDA Premium App
What for email did he use?
Windows live 1st... it is usually required.
Gmail?
Exchange?
Any of these he could have been saving contacts too. Just not pop3 like comcast for example.
Have him enter all of his email accounts that his previous phone used and see what happens after they sync.
Ok. Thanks

So i'm wondering if anyone is also having issues with syncing Facebook pics to your contacts? I've clicked sync in the Facebook app and also in my contacts on the phone and the pictures don't sync. Maybe i'm doing something wrong?

well for the FB app.. the uh original one... you can always click "don't sync" let it erase everything then click sync again. Or Don't sync... remove FB app then dl fb app and sync.. just have toy around with it. Remember you need to let it fully sync before resetting or doing anything that will make you lose data connection. that just messes everything all up again lol.
Just realized... I should delete my FB account if I'm at a point where I help others on fb troubleshooting..
Mine will sync a handful of pictures (always for the same contacts, oddly enough) but never more than 5 or 6. Even though their Facebook page is displayed in their contact info, it won't bring their pictures over. Could this be a privacy setting on their end perhaps? I can't think why else it would sync the same people every time on three different ROMS and kernels and ignore everyone else.

Google contacts
I am also having a issue with my "Google" contacts syncing pictures. I was on a stock rooted ROM with the issue, I now have the Juggernaut ROM and still, no contact pictures. I am not really interested in "Facebook" pictures, just Google contacts. If anyone has a clue on how to remedy this issue or can point me in the right direction I would be grateful. Thanks in advance XDA members.
UPDATE: I figured this out, it seems I am not the only one who came across this problem, so this is how I solved it, If you make changes to your contacts that you want to undo, you can restore your full contacts list to an earlier saved version. This allows you to undo changes like:
Recovering contacts that have been accidentally deleted
Restoring contacts after an unsuccessful sync
Undoing a recent import
Undoing a recent merge
To restore your contacts to a previous version, just follow these steps:
1Click Contacts.
2From the More actions drop-down menu, choose Restore contacts.
3Choose the time you'd like to revert your contacts list to (e.g. 10 minutes ago, one hour ago, one week ago, etc). We suggest that you also make a note of the time that you restore your contacts, in case you'd like to return to where you started.
4Click Restore. You'll see a confirmation at the top of the screen when the rollback is complete.
Hope this helps people restore their missing contact pictures and data!
If you guys wanna get the all pics for the synced contacts you should open the Facebook app and get to your friends list by using the draw on the left side. Friends is under the apps subsection. Once you are there scroll al the way down to the end of the list and wait for the pictures to load. Once you get photos for all friends loaded just reboot the phone. It should do.

and I'm assuming when you say to manually sync all contacts you mean to sync the contacts under your google account under settings>accounts?

I recently flashed a new rom on my girls GS2 and she now is telling me that she is missing several hundred contacts. i asked her if they were all tied to her google account and she told me that they were until now. she's had several other androids in the past and always had all the contacts transfer just fine. I work for T-Mobile and i have seen this issue in a couple of other devices before but have never been able to come up with any sort of rhyme or reason as to what, why, or how this is happening. can anyone shed some light on this for me? and if anyone knows a way to possibly recover those missing contacts that would help me out greatly. plus, it kinda worries me to think that one day if i flash a new rom onto my phone i may log in only to find i have lost all of my contacts......
thanks

thats the big issue, they deleted out of her google account completely. on the phone and online. she had something like 800 contacts (crazy i know) the other day and now she only has around 250. ive seen this happen with a few of my customers phones at work as well where one day they have contacts stored to gmail then suddenly they are gone. its very strange.
Umm were they mostly guys number?
Are you sure it wasn't part of fb of fb contact sync?

I am having the same problem. Phone was setup to sync contacts to gmail... but now its gone off phone and off gmail.
If I recall correctly, Google has an option to revert to previous versions of contacts up to 30 days ago. Maybe that would work?

do you save them by phone or on your computer. Be sure you have your google account selected instead of phone or sim, or do you use multiple google accounts?
you could try
save a contact on your phone
check on gmail if the new contact is present
switch roms en check on your phone
Hi,
I do it by phone and when i save them i select google.
I only use 1 google account.
Its with every rom even when i use RUU my contacts are gone
