Usim and phone contacts in view are disabled. But when i add a contact and forget to set google as contact location,then in order to view it i have to enable phone contacts

I'm having the problem with Google contacts too. If I add a new picture to my google account it will sync right too my phone but the ones I added before using Odin one click will not sync. Is there a way to force the pics to sync?
I tried to change some info on a contact thinking that might force a sync. The info updated but not the pic.

So I don't get what HTC did with the Thunderbolt....on my Incredible it used to send my contacts I added to the phone on Google. However now it doesn't sync them. And I can't find an option to save to Google instead of Phone.
When you add a contact, the second field is contact type: phone or Google. Choose Google to add to the Google cloud.

Menu>Settings>Accounts & sync check auto sync. Then tap on google and check sync contacts

I have noticed, (and this I very annoying) , that when I first setup a new rom, after syncing my google account, it creates duplicate entries, one called phone and one called google of the same phone number.

It doesn't sync them because by default new contacts are not set up as google contacts. After selecting to make a new contact you must before inputting the name manually make it a google contact.

Open contacts
Hit menu
Hit view
Uncheck everything but Google.
This will make your default Google when u add a new one.
Then they will sync

And there is no way to edit where the contact saves to AFTER you make it? I could've sworn I could change it on my Inc.

This works great, thanks. I never liked having to select Google for each new contact.

Sure you can edit contacts. Go into the People app, click on one of your contacts, and press the Menu button and choose Edit. Not only that, but in the edit screen you can choose to link identical names in your phone book and the you can see what information is stored in the phone (which syncs to Verizon's Backup Assistant) and what is stored in Google.
Knave68's post above tells you how to make sure that your phone will sync with your Google account.
It doesn't let you switch between a phone contact to a google contact, am I missing something?
Go to people, hit menu, import/export, export to SD.
Then choose phone. This will export all your phone only contacts to a vcard file.
Then choose import from SD and set Google as the destination.

Thanks. It sucks they make it that difficult but that should do the trick.
I have phone numbers on my phone that aren't linked to google sync so when I load a new rom, I lose them. How do I move a contact from "phone" to "google". And please don't say sync because it doesnt

U have to save each one separate. Open contact edit save to Google. Should work. It's a known issue with the tbolt syncing new contacts to google
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk
I don't see a save to google option
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk
OK when u add a contact the first option is contact type. Make sure that's google
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk
Even easier still.
1. On computer of choice log into google mail
2. Click contacts and add, update and save.
3. ???
4. Profit
Transfer them all from your address book on your pc to google contacts in your email account. They should all sync automatically then. I saved all my contacts from outlook and then imported them in a .vcf file. Google it, is really easy to do.

Is there a reason that when you slect a contact and choose any of the options History, Activities or Media.... nothing ever shows up under those menus?
I thought it was supposed to sync with your SMS and facebook and show recent messages, sttus updates, etc.? And I do have my contacts synced with Facebook.
is this a breoken feature when running a custom ROM? Or am I just missing something?
Thanks for any info!
Anyone on this??

You have to sync with the integrated facebook sns and not through the facebook app from the market. If you go to add account you will see facebook under the integrated accounts header.

I am synced through there as well. As, even if I wasn't linked with facebook, I should still be able to see call and text history with my contacts... that's not showing up either. Thanks though...
Anyone else?

If I understood your question correctly and you wanna sync your Facebook friend profile pictures with your contact pictures on your phone, I personally use https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.syncme.syncmeapp and find it quite good, it does what it's supposed to.
