I have been noticing that new contacts that I have added recently, are not syncing with my gmail account, even though I am selecting my gmail account and not the phone option when adding the contact. When I go back into the contact and try to "Link" it, there is not option for gmail. Does anyone know what the issue is or how to resolve this?
:laugh: did' you check the singal status befor you ask:laugh::laugh:

I just graduated from a Blackberry to the HTC Incredible. After a few days of use and way too much forum browsing, I still have a few issues that I cannot resolve. Please help if you know of any solutions!
1. PHONE: If I dial one of my local contacts and do not include the area code, the call log labels the call as UNKNOWN. This is somewhat frustrating as every phone that I've ever owned was sophisticated enough to known that I'm dialing a known contact even if the area code is not included.
2. CONTACT SYNC: I synced my Blackberry with Outlook. I had no problem getting all of my contacts into the Incredible, but now I want to sync them with Google Contacts and ditch Outlook. I cannot change the PC Sync label on each contact in my phone though, and I'm not even sure if it has anything to do with it.
3. CALENDAR RECURRENCE: I often need to enter meetings to repeat on multiple days of the week. For instance, I may have a review meeting every Tuesday and Thursday. Is there a calendar app that has the capability of recurrence in this manner? I know this is a popular problem, but I have been unsuccessful in finding a solution. It seems insane to have to enter these types of recurrences through Google Calendar to have them sync with the phone properly.
4. MAIL: If I setup my "native" or default google account in the HTC mail app, it syncs with IMAP to get all of the existing mail. HOWEVER, it will not show any new mail that comes in. I have unchecked the sync with the Gmail App ( I cannot remove the account from the Gmail App), but no matter what I do, I cannot get new mail in HTC Mail. Each time I try removing the account from HTC and setting it up again, the new mail shows up, but nothing new from then on.
5. POPUP NOTIFICATIONS: I love the notifications that I get in the status bar for new mail or text messages. Is there anything that I can use to have these notifications popup in a new window on my screen?
Please help! This is an awesome phone, but it just seems that some of the "basics" are missing.
Why didnt you post this in the HTC Incredible subforums? I doubt you will get an answer in here.
Hello
Problem: About 90% of my contacts have a "/1" at the end of them. For example:
Luis/1
John/1
Ashley/1
and so on...
When I login to my gmail none of them have the "/1". I sync my contacts but they still show the "/1" in my phone. How can I fix this?
I deleted all the contacts from my Sim Card, so I am only using and showing the Google Contacts.
Thanks for your help.
I got it fixed. In case anyone out there is having this problem this is how to fix it.
For some reason my contacts were being "linked" with gmail and phone, even though I had the option to only show Gmail contacts.
To Fix It
You have to do this individually, for each contact.
Open a contact, and under "Linked Contacts" delete the one from the phone or the one showing the "/1".
Hope this helps.
That's actually usually a problem with bringing contacts over from sony ericsons
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
Yeah, I had a Sony Ericsson W760.
How do i sync sms and contacts with htcsense.com ?
I can log in to htcsense.com and make my phone ring and i can lock the phone.
But i want the rest that is shown in this video.

I don't know when they stopped having it look like that, but I think it automatically syncs.
I exchanged my Sensation today & when I signed in the my htcsense account on my phone it started to sync the contacts & texts back to my phone. I really wish there was a way to disable it actually.
You can disable sync, but then you will not be able to track your phone i guess.
I don't understand why i can't see all options.
If I'm going to do a hard reset, then i want to know if my data is in sync with htcsense.com or not...
see that's what sucks. I'd like it to be synced to htcsense, but I don't want my contacts/sms synced. i hope they fix that. right now if I sync it up then it will pull down my contacts & there will be duplicates which I don't want.
After sync with htcsense.com, I did a hard reset of the phone.
The contacts and the messages was not restored to my phone when i again performed a sync with htcsense.com
There was no important sms on my phone and i had all my contacts synchronized with gmail, so no problem losing it.
Apps was not restored when logging on to marked.
Hello. Yesterday I changed my gmail password so I had to update it on my android as well. I wanted to do this but instead of changing the password I deleted my gmail account from the android. Now I set the gmail back up with my phone and I don't see my phone contacts(phone numbers) any more.. There are just some facebook/skype contact in my contact list now.
I had my phone to save them on my gmail account because this seemed convenient. Is there a way to get them back? I tried looking at my gmail contacts on my computer and there are none there, I tried the restore contacts option but it didn't bring any up.
Is there anything I can do?
Thank you.
I have stock 5.0.1 on my Nexus 5. I use my Google account as my primary personal account. I have my work exchange account on my phone, but i only sync calendar and mail.
My problem is once i got lollipop, my contacts automatically synced, no matter what account settings i had. If i create a new message in hangouts, i have to sort through hundreds of work contacts i have no desire to have on my phone. Anyone else have this problem? Any work arounds?
This started happening on my Nexus 6P. I don't want my Exchane contacts to sync - just mail and calendar. Not sure what happened, but seems like a bug in a recent update.
