Hi I am using the Touchwiz Rom for Htc Wildfire (Buzz) and for some reason, since day one, I have noticed that even though I have checked the Auto-sync setting under Accounts & Sync, all my contacts stored with my Google account don't seem to sync..........can somebody tell me how to fix this problem? Thanks in advance!
Have you flashed correct gapps?
I'd try removing my google account and re-inserting it...

I have recently purchased the HTC Desire HD and its an amazing phone. So glad to be away from Apple - amazing to have so much control over my phone again.
I have rooted, installed Android Revolution - and I am currently trying to find ways to improve my battery life - thanks to all the great posts on here about that, I have spent ages reading and tweaking the phone. The best thing is however I can carry round spare batteries! Good bye iPhone
Anyway I have a slight problem that I think is related specifically to the HTC. I have a Google Apps Domain account. I have set up the Gmail Sync for Contacts / Calendar - but the sync is only one way. So all changes online from my laptop change the contacts on the phone but not the other way round? E-mail syncs fine as well... just not calendar / contacts - I have seen problems online with Gmail accounts - but not with Google Apps accounts - do you guys have any ideas?
Cheers

Clear data of any google applications from setting may help.

And let it resync? Won't I loose all the new data off the phone??
Cheers
anyone got any more ideas on this one?

Weird...you have it set to sync manually or automatically? Also check what google synchronizes under accounts and sync...see if contacts and calendar are there. I ve never had any problems
hey thanks for getting back to me... I have set it to auto sync in background, contacts checked - new ones come down to phone from account but when a new on on the phone is made - it doesn't go back up to Google Apps account

Hi,
this is an old topic, but I had exactly the same problem. Clearing the data and cache from Gmail totally helped. It resynced everything and it is working normal again. Thx for the idea jokies.
i have the orginal desire hd rom by htc and its rooted. the contacts are appearing more and more times. first each contact only appeared twice, now they appear eight times. i don't know whats causing it and i really need a fix, it becoming a joke. any help is apprachated
Thank You
I had the same problem. Didn't really solve the problem but i removed the duplicates by simply deleting them. Quick and dirty but it "works". I also stopped syncing my Facebook contacts and haven't had problems after that.

i think...... when we flash a new rom the device synchronizes our contacts with the google account... and reload our contacts.... but wen you flash a lot of times...diferent roms, the list of contacts multiplies the numbers because "google sync" was maked a security copy of de data from the roms one by one.
Conclusion: whenever flash a new rom I erase one to one the duplicated contacts.
I used to have that problem, what I did was just go inti my Gmail account on the PC, go to contacts and delete the duplicates or you can just merge them. And now I just let Google sync my contacts back to phone, also check in contacts on the phone the contacts display option for which contacts to show, phone/Facebook/sim

I recently wiped my old decks rom bc i was tired of the bugs & crappy battery life. I installed a new rom and went to use gmail which syncs my contacts. But the latest contacts I had synced on my account are not in there...Is there anyway to get them back? I thought once you synced them up they were always tied to your account once you logged in?
bump anyone? Would like to fix this
You must of turned sync off before, or recent would be there too

Well I remember when I input the phone # it asked do u want to sync the number with google or Not Sync and just have it in the phone. I always choose SYNC with GOOGLe. But once I wiped my rom & installed a new one all the new contacts are gone =( & I didnt backup bc I didnt plan to use that ROM again...
The ones you synced with Google should come back if you:
Go to settings
Accounts and sync
Select your gmail
Click "sync contacts " then they should be there

Okay I am running CM7 on my HTC Wildfire (Buzz),
The problem that I have is every time I log into Facebook on the official Facebook app that I downloaded from android market it always asks me to sync my contacts even after telling it that I don't want to.
with your answer please consider that I have also tried actually syncing as the app requests but I still receive the question every time I log in even if I did sync so how do I stop it from asking? anyone else experienced this? it never happened on HTC stock Roms...
Thanks to any answerers.

Hi, I'm running a similar set up to and not received any issues. It did ask me to sync the 1st time but i've not seen it come up again.
If you go to settings and then accounts & sync, see if your FB account is in there and turn sync to OFF.
You do this by clicking the account and then unchecking 'sync contacts'
See if that helps
I have this question, in ICS when i install the facebook app, its ask me to sync my contacts in with facebook (the existing, i mean the contacts in my phone to update with fb photo, info, etc) but in jellybean i cant, i see the account there, i turned on the sync option, but it doesnt do anything.
Someone know what to do?
The functionality has been deliberately disabled by Facebook. There was something of a controversy about it back when it happened. So, yeah. Not happening anymore.
So,do you know any good app that do that work very good? like ICS without any problem
Contact sync for facebook in the play store. Try that out.

I use Friendcaster and it syncs the contacts pretty well. I started using it when Facebook upgraded to 2.0 and kept having network errors. The contact sync was just a plus.
