like my title says: activesync does not add all google contacts completly
this means, when i set my active sync on my mobile up, to sync with my gmail account. it does add all my contacts but allot of them are missing their phone number and further details..
gmail and calender are working fine, its just the google contacts that does not import all of phone numbers to the contacts.
What i have in my contact list in my phone after sync are:
79 contacts (the same as in google contacts on pc)
13 of them have their info (phone numbers, email adresses) synct
the rest is just only an plain contact with only the name
I guest that the eve phone you were using is an Android device.
Just go to your google contact on PC then edit one by one the type of phone number to anything different Other type.

Hi !
After placing/receiving calls or sending/receiving SMS, device shows the contact name from the Sim card. (The contact name that appears in the call log or SMS thread tittle).
Contact to display is set to - Phone. Still it seems the device looks into the Sim card by default, while it registers the call/SMS.
This makes the names appear shorten as they are in the Sim.
How can I set the device to look at the contacts that are store on it ??
I'm using the original Lg apps and software (Android version - 5.0)
Thanks
Same thing happened to me after I did a full reset. I have my contacts in google contacts so what I did was -
1) I deleted all my contacts (phone and google). It should also delete those in google cloud. So keep internet and sync enabled.
2) Go to contacts.google.com and restore your contacts from yeaterday(for instance). Google keeps all your contact changes from the last 30 days.
You should have Sync and internet enabled all that time on your phone during that.
It should sync the contacts and all should be working fine.
Hi, I have a sprint s6 edge that's unlocked. I live overseas and I'm trying to import my sim contacts to the phone with these steps.
Start your Galaxy S6 and open the Contacts app and tap on “MORE”.
Open the “Settings” and tap at the top in the list at “Import/Export contacts”.
Now you can see the “Import”-Button at the top. This will allow you to copy the contacts from your SIM to your Samsung Galaxy S6.
In the “Import contacts from” popup you have to choose “SIM card”.
Save it to “Device”, wait a second and you’re done.
Now use the Home key to return to the home screen and you can see your contacts in the Phone book.
However the "import contacts from" popup does not have the "SIM card" option. It only shows device storage. Can anyone help?
USe Google Account to import or Export Contacts

Does anybody know how to set phonebook to show only SIM contacts.

1.Open contacts/settings and then enable show Sim contacts.
2. On the home screen of contact list tap arrow mark which is on top left corner and select Sim card contacts.
In case if you still couldn't figure out reply back
Hello,have S20+ with the latest Android. Using 2x SIM card (home, work). Every contacts are synchronized to my private google account.
Curently I have 500 contacts in Google Contacts. Device shows me 518 contacts.
Sync doesn't work well. Deleted all contacts from google (500 contacts), in device are 43 contacts now. Deleted them and everything from the trash. Imported 500 contacts to google again, mobile shows me 571 contacts now.
Have this problem for some months. Sometimes I found a lot of contacts are deleted (in trash). Google shows me contacts was deleted by device ie at the night if I sleep.
- tried factory reset, didn't help
- yesterday I removed all contacts again and manually add every contact via google contacts. When 30 contacts was in google contacts, device shows me 42 contacts (a lot of duplicates again).
Any fix for that please? It's really uncomfortable. With iOS I didn't have these problems. I'm thinking about returning to iOS again!
example of duplicates in attachment.. If I go to find duplicates in device (by number, name, email), it still shows me there are no duplicates
I cleaned up some contacts and just found this:
google contacts: 488 contacts
s20 (phone app): 503 contacts
s20 (contacts app): 513 contacts
wtf?
SIM will have some carrier contacts and may have some you saved there in the past?. You may have saved some to the native or other dialler contacts before making Google the default account for contacts
Dont think the device has a problem, just think you havent realised how contacts works or realised theres carrier and dialler contacts.
Stop reimporting them and creating more issues.
Stop manually recreating them because Google will sync and create duplicates - youre creating the problem there...
Google Contacts has an option to merge and fix contacts, both in the Contacts app and in the online web page
Sign in - Google Accounts
Please never mention that locked down abomination of a phone OS again, we like freedom here...though it may be jarring to some
you're not right man..
1. don't have any contacts in SIM cards (tried both SIM in another device)
2. made factory reset (without restore backup) few times, still same problem
3. never had this problem with Android 11. It started with Android 12 I think
4. today tried delete all contacts and reimport again 4x. Everytime device showed me wrong number.
4.1 - first import shows me 28 contacts difference
4.2 - second import - 15 contacts difference
4.3 - third import - 41 contacts difference
4.4 - fourth import - 1 difference
5. if device shows me duplicates, there are no duplicates in google contacts
see attachments..

Youre seeking support for a beta? Report it to Google....thats what betas are for
sorry, made a mistake in post. It started with Android 12. Using latest official version.
1) What contact app are you using?
2) What is your default account for handling/syncing contacts
Hopefully both Google....or both Samsung
1. default samsung's app
2. my default account for syncing is google account.
