I bought Samsung Note II to replace my iPhone mobile. I synced all contacts to MS Outlook then to Android. I had 2 issues after doing that:
1- phone numbers that were under "iPhone" phone number field were change to "other" phone number field in MS Outlook. So when I synced them to my Android, this phone number "other" was not synced!
2- some contacts has more than 3 phone numbers. when I open them from the contacts, all numbers are shown, but when I open them in the phone dialer, only the first 3 phone numbers are shown!
By the way, if I add new number in the Android contact editor, it will be shown in the contacts and phone dialer even if it have more than 3 phone number!!
I really stocked in that I have lots of contacts in my phone

I have the following situation:
I previously had a Nokia 6680, which I used to sync with Office Outlook, through Nokia Pc Suite. The problem is that all my contacts phone numbers, was filed as "Other" , in the Outlook contacts field, and now, when I synced again with my XDA III, I realised that ActiveSync doesn't sync the "Other" numbers. So, on my PDA, it appears only the contact names, but not the phone numbers.
The only solution I found, is to change the field section in Outlook, for all the contacts, one by one, but that would be terrible for my over 400 contacts.
For some unfathomable (and at this moment, irrelevant) reason my activesync partnership decided it had to re-sync all my contacts on my Windows Mobile device (it is a Touch Diamond with stock 1.93 ROM).
No contacts or calendars were lost.
However, because the contacts were re-written, all I see on my contact list are the numbers, not the names associated with those numbers.
The call history remains, but it no longer shows names. It is one long list of numbers, which is not very useful. Calls made after the contacts re-sync do show names as usual.
Is there any way to re-associate the call history with the names?
How does the call history - contacts list association work anyway?
Hi.
I have the samsung galaxy S and have just recently synced my phone contacts with my facebook and twitter accounts.
The only annoying thing about this is that obviously it also pulls information about the contact such as phone numbers, email addresses, etc. from the sites too. I have found that many of my contacts have old or disconnected telephone numbers as they have not updated them. This is not too much of a problem as I have their current phone details, etc. stored on my phone anyway, but I want to be able to hide the numbers or email addresses that have been pulled from my facebook/twitter account so they do not show on my contacts page.
I have marked up the relevant numbers as default, but I was wondering if there was a setting anywhere that would hide any numbers from twitter/facebook that have not been set as the default number.
Thanks for any info on this.
Hello and sorry if this was repeated. I sync my contacts from Outlook.com using HTC (m8 & m9) stock mail app. The second mobile number in a contact is always showing as "Car" number not as "Mobile" Number in my phone. Sometimes, some additional strange changes is happening in my contacts details too. My question is this a problem relates to Android, HTC, or MS Exchange service?
I'm a Nokia 7 plus user. In contacts, both email address and sim contacts are displayed. Is there any way to show only contacts with phone numbers?

Tap on the 3 dots on the top right of the Contacts app and click on Customize. Here you can choose which contacts to display.
