hi champs,
Please help me. I delete contacts on my phone and they keep coming back.
I have the contacts saved on and sync with google account just so that u dont loose them if something happens with the phone. If i switch the sync off and then future xontacts wont be uploaded in google.
Please suggest a good fix.
Thanks
Do you have any other accounts that you are logged into that sync contacts like Microsoft or Samsung? Check under settings accounts and sync and only enable contact sync for Google

I have two gmail accounts setup on my phone. Before the Froyo update, I would get instant new email notifications on both of my accounts. Ever since I updated to the Froyo final build, I only get new mail notification on my first account. The other one doesn't sync. Both of the accounts are setup to sync under the Settings->Accounts&Sync menu. Any ideas?
I have this exact problem. Help me please.
I have this problem too and it is frustrating!
On my phone I only have one gmail account set up as the official Google account. I then set up my other gmail accounts under the mail program including my primary gmail account. I disabled the syncing of my Google account and access all of my email through the mail program. I do this because I hate the gmail program and all of my gmail and yahoo accounts sync without problem.

I prefer the GMAIL app over the mail app because I am not the most techincally advanced person in the world and GMAIL easier to use in my opinion. I don't know how to make the mail app sync right when the email comes in like in GMAIL (went through the menu and did not find the option). Thanks for the suggestion it is really appreciated.
Some how i got mine working.
Delete the account
Re-add. It will say this account is not sync'ed (do not press menu and do the one time sync)
Now go to the home screen, menu, settings, accounts and sync. Click on the account and hit "snyc now" a few times.
Reboot the phone
Once back on go back to accounts & sync. Open the gmail account. You should now have the sync mail option.
Check the box, it should then sync
Ahould be good to go
This is exactly what i did and its working like it use to on 2.1

I am using K-9 Mail to view all my mail. Great app, integrated inbox to view mail from all accounts at once, can set a color for each account, different notification for each account, very customizable.
Any word on this problem? Just flashed Froyo today and it's bugging me.
I've been having this issue, but I've been on Froyo for a while, I think there is a problem on the server side of things that its not pushing the mail to the phone. I've been posting to a Google help ticket and they said that they're aware that mail is not being pushed to some handsets and they are working on a solution.

what usually works for me is clearing the data in your contact storage app(settings>applications>manage applications>running>contacts storage>clear data). this will delete the contacts on your phone, then resynch them with the server..... if contacts do not come back right away, then it is something to do with the connection to the server and they will come back when the connection is restored. this works for me with Gmail not synching as well.
Hi folks,
I could not manage my contacts between my device, my google contacts and my google+ account in a proper way such as merging the duplicates and showing/hiding the contacts that I want.
Serously.. Google should simplify it with couple of clicks only!!!
Hi !
I'm sorry but i don't understand so much what's the problem with the contact management ?
You can't merged them together or that's not sync with your others devices ?
When I signed up in Google+, Google+ created a new list in Google Contacts. It shows an option to merge my Google Plus contacts with my current contacts, I clicked yes! Guess what? I got merged contacts but with duplications!! So I decided to clean up the mess, Google didn't implement any unmerege option. WTH, also it messes my contacts in my phone.
So I need now to delete the contacts and build up the contacts again from scratsh.
I will try to export the contacts, fix them. Then, import them to Google Contacts again.
I believe you can unmerge them via google+ settings in the app itself or via setting-accounts and sync. Tap on your gmail account and uncheck sync google+

Woaw, indeed, that's strange =/
Very strange !
And if you try to work directly (for this time only to clean up) on the web version, to use the "find & merge the duplicates" ? And/Or use the backup into the Contact too
I didn't have the problem when G+ was implemented into Gmail =/ it's weird that's happen
You can Join & Unjoin contacts in the People app.
you can edit your google contacts by visiting
google.com/contacts
this helps out by cleaning up duplicates and is easier than just doing over the phone.

Problem is the sync is one way, from gmail to android, not from Android to gmail. If I have a phone number on Android it doesnt show up on gmail. Why oh why?
I don't know... I've honestly never had any of these issues. My contacts work perfect.

Man that would make life so easy, I had to do this to bring my phone numbers to gmail:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1417215
SO I take it any contact as long as it is not facebook and skype or whatsapp or twitter will sync with gmail contacts.
i also noticed contacts are a bit difficult, i almost lost all my contacts..
but i just leave them as they are and sometimes see i do need to adjust or merge one, but i aint touching them anymore.
Google COnTACTS has option : click MORE an then RESTORE CONTACTS
A menu opens where you can choose time to restore to (1 h ago, a day ago...)
On my phone, I had all my contacts saved under [email protected] (my university email runs on gmail system) google account althought i never had any success syncing them from my phone.
Just now I deleted that google account on the phone forgetting the fact all my phone numbers were there. Obviously I cant get em back from my google account since there was never a successful sync.
Can anyone tell me how I can get back my contacts?
Thanks

It never synced with the mail system. So basically I'm asking whether I can recover it from within the phone instead of syncing
Export your contacts to another Gmail account, log in with that and sync - job done!
If they didn't sync to an account your SOL. Sorry.

If you can access your uni mail in the Google Apps interface, maybe you can export your contacts there into .csv or .vcf. So you can import them in your main Google account or just locally on the phone via 3rd party Android app that imports contacts.
on my Optimus G in Calendar/settings/accounts when I go to my gmail account the top of the screen has a message "This account is not being synced..." How can I make this happen? I read a suggestion to delete the information in the calendar and let it re-sync, but I don't know how to delete the calendar info. I've gone into gmail calendars on my pc and things seem ok there??? Is there another way to enable the sync?

are you using the power saver features or greenify it has option to turn sync off/hibernate i've noticed sometimes it doesn't reenable them from time to time, try un checking the sync options and can go into settings from the app and mashed sync is clicked

If you have calendar synced (will delete local data): Go to system settings and apps. Click the all tab. Scroll down and find calendar storage clear data and force close. Check calendar/syncing.

unfortunately neither suggestion worked. When I go to the Account & Sync page, Gmail is not listed. I would have expected that. Is this the problem? How do I add Gmail to the sync, or Gmail calendars. My Gmail account actually syncs and pushed mail.
Weird... Gmail should be added to Accounts & Sync when Gmail is installed. I would try uninstalling Gmail entirely and reinstalling.
As for Calendar... as stated above, System Settings>Apps and clear Data on Calendar Storage. This fixed syncing errors for me.
Also, try going into Settings within the Calendar app itself. There you can select which calendars to sync. Maybe all are deselected, so that is the reason for it saying that in Accounts & Sync?
