[Q] How to clean out my contacts - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

I have my primary gmail contacts, touchdown, facebook, google+ contacts all showing up when I search in contacts, so annoying. I set to ONLY show my primary contacts, but when I search, all the others show up.
How can I clean it up again and ONLY have my primary gmail contacts?
Thanks!

[Q] Contacts sync with facebook, twitter

Everytime I reflash, I seem to loose the merged contacts between my phonebook with facebook/twitter/whatsapp etc. My blackberry back in the day stored the connection as an attirbute in the contact object such as; fb://profile/XXXXXXX. Any apps that can back up the contacts with their other app relations?
apart from the contacts, I could swear that the facebook birthdays would sync to my calender as well. I seemed to have lost it, was it a friendstream functionality? Thanks

[Q] I don't understand how contacts work

In my contacts, I have my google contacts, my Touchdown, my facebook, my google+ contacts. As you can assume, there are tons of duplicates from contacts with the same name that is in google, touchdown and facebook, sometimes google+. I set in contacts to ONLY show my google contacts, but still when I search, I see 3 of my friend name.
Its really annoying...I'm almost inclined to wipe the contacts database.
How do I clean it up? Also, for anyone that use Touchdown, how can I prevent the contacts to show up on the phone contacts in the future?
Thanks!
You could try to long click a contact, select join contact, and then find the duplicates to join.

[Q] Export Merged/joined Android contacts

I'm facing a problem with exporting all my contacts on my galaxy s4
I'm new at android and i have put all accounts connected to GS4 and i have contacts from gmail, facebook, skype, google+.
i have spent a lot of time merging all the contacts so i can have a clean contact list with only one contact per person.
My problem is that in gmail after finished merging i only have the contacts that i had before on gmail accout. Is there a way of exporting all contacts from my galaxy s4 (from all accounts) so i can then import them to gmail, outlook.com or yahoo.
I have been reading in the forum and the only thing i found is to backup the contacts with groups and merged/joined option, so if you want to change room i just have to load the backup, but i did no find nothing about exporting them to csv or vcf to import to other accounts
Best regards

[Q] Facebook Contacts Still Showing in Contacts, Unable to Hide

Hi, I have the T-Mobile Samsung S6 and I synced my Facebook Contacts. I realized the stock Contacts App displays all my contacts, so I selected Customized List under Contacts to Display and unchecked Facebook ALL Contacts. However, even after doing this my Facebook contacts STILL show in the list. Has anyone been successful in keeping Facebook Sync on but NOT having them display under Contacts?

Google Account Syncs Contacts, Despite Being Disabled

I can't have my own email servers, because Google considers anything not from gmail, yahoo, hotmail, etc to be spam. So I use a gmail account and need to have a google account in my phone. I use Nextcloud and DAVx5 to sync some files and contacts, so I disabled the google account's contact sync.
Since I imported my contacts into Nextcloud/DAVx5, I deleted the google versions of said contacts. However, despite google contacts sync being disabled, this deleted all my contacts over at gmail and contacts.google.com.
Is there a way to positively DISABLE contacts sync with my google account?
ps. Notice how I didn't bother to post this at Google support?
