Hi
Is there any software helps me to group around 100 items from contacts in one group at one time . Without needs to edit each contact and add it to the group.
Thank you
i haven't tested this thoroughly though:

Moved to Q&A section
OS Contacts Manager is great but it will erase the any old group for the contact . I need to add the contact to new group without erase the old association
Any further assistant ?
Anyone know if there is a way to do this?
I have 7500+ contacts both for business and my personal contacts.
I need all of them but only use specific groups on a regular basis. Is there a way to sync all the contacts but only show lets say Family, Friends groups in the contact list.
But when you tap menu > search and search for a specific name itll search through all of them and show the results? In other words hide specific groups but still sync them.
If this is in the wrong section please forgive me.. Its a general question and not device specific which is why i posted here.
Have you tried going to contacts...hit menu...then hit display options? I'm pretty sure it's the same as 2.1
If you have an Android phone from HTC with Sense, then what you request is standard functionality already in 2.1. You can tag your contacts, put them in respective groups (like family, business, vip) or even create your own ones.
The only problem I would see is the size of the contact storage with that amount of contacts. I have only about 450 contacts with minimal contact info, but the contact storage is already 13.7 MB.
I've done a bunch of searching and can't find the answer for this phone.
Does anyone know how we can select just "My Contacts" instead of "All Contacts" with regards to syncing the Google contact list?
There's gotta be a way. I'm going to check the option to only show contacts with phone numbers but frankly, that option kind of sucks. There should be a better way to do this.
i have the same issue and can't find any setting to sync only My Contacts.
What is even more annoying is that it does not sync the groups i have set in google contacts

I can't find any options to add groups or add contacts to groups. I have only 2 groups listed - google and corporate with no options.
I think Touchwiz completely borked groups.
Yeah, it seems to be a problem with touchwiz because my buddy who's got an EVO has the option available.
Yeah, this is probably the only thing on the Captivate that I haven't been able to fix. It syncs every random Google contact I have, whereas other Android phones I've had would only sync the "My Contacts" group.
You can set contacts to only display people with numbers, if that helps.
You can create groups. Open Contacts then hit menu, create. Then when you open the group there will be an add member on the screen. For existing groups with members, you have to hit menu and then add member to add more.
The other thing is that I keep losing contacts randomly.
I don't understand why this is happening, it's quite frustrating

I still can't follow;
I open contacts and hit create and I get an overlay "save contact to" with 4 choices:
Phone
Sim
Corporate
Google
Only if i choose phone and scroll to the bottom is there an group field (shows unassigned).
EDIT - if i select the group i go to an empty box, but i can hit menu and create a group. Unfortunately every group or contact I create assigned to phone (not corp or google) becomes hidden. If I try to create group with the same name, it says it exists. Trying to create a new contact in "phone" still gives me empty group list.
So TouchWiz is hiding some stuff/data in the interface. Very bizarre.

I forget a step, sorry. You have to select groups after opening contacts.
I used the free AT&T Address Book feature on this phone to create all my contacts on the phone. I then have them linked to my Corporate contacts, Gmail and Facebook. This allows me to assign custom ringtones and manage my contacts using all the features of the phone.
To use the AT&T Address I had to export my contacts from Outlook to a CSV file. I then imported them via the AT&T website (addressbook.att.net). Now I have all my contacts as phone contacts and no longer have the SNS restrictions.
hey all~
so i know i'm still a newbie, and hope i'm just missing something here but i have an annoying problem with my contact list.
i'm on a non-rooted samsung captivate galaxy s. i have my contacts copied from my SIM card to my phone and i have contact sync turned OFF for my google account [i have tried with it turned on as well and have the same issue]
no matter what method i use to add a contact to a group, 9 times out of 10 they disappear. [with the exception of the favorite group]
i have tried adding straight from the group management, from the contact card, when creating a contact, when creating a contact group.
initially the contact will show up in the group, but within an hour they disappear.
i have tried using different contact managers, megroups etc and always have the same issue....any ideas or fixes? [i have text msg's i need to send weekly to different groups and it would be much easier to have them actually sorted in groups lol]
thanks

I'm searching for a mod to sort chats/contacts into different categories. For example to move all work related contacts into one page, every advertisement or news into one and keep them clean from normal contact chats. Do you get the idea?
