There is android app that need to sign in using my google account openID, so I need to sign in my google account on the phone (galaxy sl). I already disable "auto sync" option, but I am not sure why the phone auto sync sometime, maybe it is because I didn't disable "applications can send, sync, receive data at any time".
When the phone auto sync, it show all my private blogspot pictures on the phone Gallery album, omg! So I look into the "setting > Accounts and sync > google account", then I saw Sync Contact, Sync Picasa Album, Sync Calender. I want to disable Sync Picasa Album, and unable Sync Contact. But there is not option for me to disable Sync Picasa Album. Please see the picture for reference :

Compare to Galaxy S2 which has several checkboxes to allow user select which account to be sync and which not to be sync :
I asked the Galaxy S2 user to try the steps :
1) sync Picasa Album (check the checkbox),
2) go check the phone Gallery album see whether or not the pictures appear,
3) uncheck picasa checkbox,
4) go the phone Gallery see the picture still there?
He said when he did 4th step, all the pictures are disappear, so it mean he can choose which account not to be sync.
My Galaxy SL doesn't has checkboxes, how can I choose which account not to be sync? I did tried to download some Android app to handle account sync but Android App with checkboxes also can't prevent the stock account sync software from auto sync my Picasa Album... sad case.
In other word, after the phone auto sync my account, how can I dis-sync it without removing the account?
wich is your firmware?
Mate all my firmwares sync option, have been like the galaxy S2 you've put (i.e.with the check boxes). u'd need to seriously consider upgrading ur phones fw ASAP!

Can I check outlook email directly from my mobile?
Was trying to search in this forum and also did some googleing, but can find any...
Does anyone know -> "Can I check outlook email directly from my mobile?"
I'm synchronizing with my PC outlook (company's POP3 email) with my Touch Pro, most of the time I always let's my PC downloads all the email and sync it to my mobile and only check it when I have time (at Touch Pro). I've found this button (pls refer to the pic attached) and thinking maybe Touch Pro can use its internet connection (3G/WiFi/etc) to check the "outlook email"* as well? Does anyone knows can this be done or this button is just for 'display' purpose? Or there's other way for me to get this done?

Pls advice, thanks a million. Cheers.
* I mean Outlook Email that able to sync with PC in the end, not POP3/Hotmail email feature.
You need to set up a pop account with your outlook email settings. This will give you 2 accounts on the phone Outlook and the pop of it. in activesync set it up to delete the pop email when connected to the pc to stop the doubleup of emails
I believe you may be thinking of "direct push mail" technology. You can set up your outlook account through an online exchange server (mail2web.com for example) and it should automatically "push" your email to your phone.
Obviously, it takes some time to set up and I don't know all the details about your email setup.
Hope this points you in the right direction.
What company/ISP are you using, one thing to bare in mind is most carriers (in the UK at least) use their own smtp server, so when you set up your account on your Touch Pro and you find you cant "send" emails, it will more than likley be because of this.
just set it up in messaging
start -> messaging -> Setup Email
follow the prompts

First of all you are asking in wrong forum, so next time post it right place.
Second you will be only able to see check box under google account settings if you set auto-sync feature on under general sync setting Understand , if you disabled it then no check box will be appear on picassa or contacts....
Third if you already synced some pics of piccasa and now you don't want it to show it on gallery, first un-check piccasa sync under google account then go to
settings >manage applications>select gallery
and then clear its data n cache.
Ok I hope this will solve your problem.

This is a simple way to remove the account, without having to reset the unit, and lose all your data, settings and installed applications.
remove all accounts that are sicronizadas in: settings> accounts and sync

Thnx
Just to be clear, by "delete all accounts," does that just mean my gmail account, ONLY?
Also, how would I go about deleting my FB account?

I wanted to know that too. Is it working only for Gmail account or ALL accounts that we have on the phone?
You could go to Settings > Accounts and Sync > [ Your Account here ] > Remove Account... A lot easier and safer...

2. As soon as you click on more option, you will get some options. Now, you need to Select the Import/Export option to proceed.
3. Now, after clicking on Import/Export, you can Select your choice of Export to either SIM card or to SD card
Ⅱ. Sync contacts with Google Gmail
1. First, log into your G Mail account from PC or laptop, once you get logged in, select the contact icon which is located on the left hand of the screen. You will be directed to contact management area, now click on "+" signed icon. After clicking on "+", you will be asked to create a new contact. Now, input all of your contacts and once done with all the entries you can click on the save link. Now, repeat this process until all of the contacts get saved.
2. Log into your G Mail account from your Android device where contacts are stored. Go to the main menu on the device and select the contacts icon. Drop down the check box to bring the list of options. Select the account from the available list which is select the G Mail account. Once you select the account, turn on the sync contacts option.
3. Now you have successfully synced the account with your Android device and all contacts will be transferred from the device. It allows you to conveniently have a backup of all your Gmail contacts. This helps a lot when phone gets stolen or crashes down or even if it suffers from memory loss. As all the contacts are synced with your G Mail account, you can retrieve on any of the smart phones as a replacement device not necessarily to be Android.
Easily use the backup feature of Moborobo
1. Open Moborobo, click Data, select the contacts you want to backup. Click the button Backup/Restore.
2. Specify a path for the backup file, then click Backup.
Thank you! :good:
Thank you. .. My first thank in xda...
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
Thank you for clear instructions. I use ICS and there is no option to store contacts other using Google account. When I create a new contact there is only google account option .Is there any option to override this setting if I would like to save new contacts to sim card or other contacts account. Google starts to be funny
Thanks

Thank you, these instructions are useful!
Is there anyway, -not- to have my contact list pull from my Google account the second I add a Google account into my phone?
I have disabled automatically sync data, yet Google still deem it necessary to push my contact from their servers into my second phone where I do -not- want any entire contact.
I remember that on my Galaxy S7, I ended up getting around the issue by simply deleting the contacts I did not want on my phone (probably by disabling sync first).
But on my Pixel, which replaces the S7, I am getting a warning that doing so will remove the contacts on all my other devices despite the fact that I have also disabled auto-sync.
Worse come to worse, I suppose that I could just use a different account on my second phone and avoid adding the account on my primary phone, but I would prefer not to that if only because I would like to be able to access my paid apps (yes, I could also login and out of my primary account as necessary, but I'd prefer a set and forget solution if there is one).
Thanks.
I just make backup copies, then import the latest one.
Hi, you can also use android contacts manager tool to help you make backup of contacts on your android phone to the computer, and you can also manage (edit, delete, etc) them before you take backup. The tool my suggest is Coolmuster Android Assistant. With its help, contacts manager is really easy.

With Samsung phones there is already a robust contact manager, no Gookill needed.
