Hey guys, i've been looking for this all day, but i can't realy find a awnser.
Today i deleted all my contacts from google (gmail, on my pc). Obviously they disapeared from my phone aswell.
Now i restored my contacts on my phone (made a backup), but they wont reapear on gmail...
Now im wondering how the sync works, and if this has to do with my ROM (CMH) not having sense.
Thanks in advance guys
Omg I must be retarded...
I just had to press the 'Sync now' button in the menu -.-'
Sorry guys, just delete this.

i deleted all my contacts from phonebook... so like expected cant get my contact back in live messenger... tried hard reset/reinstall ROM... nothng...people thta chat me are shown offline.... i can still use IM+ ,,, whitch shows alll of my contacts... so i guess msn server still has them... only my phone refuses to succesfuly sync contacts.... any help?
i searched forums but only found people advising not to delete contacts lol... anyway back??
PS: it refuses re adding contacts... says contacts already in my list...
anyone at all???
Guys, anyone has the file to share? Mainly what happened was that I choose the option to sync all msn contacts into the diamond when i signed in FIRST on msn messenger via the phone. And realised after a while it was actually a hassle to have all these email addresses in my contact list on the phone. So what I did was that I deleted the list from the phone and did not realise its actually in sync with my computer as well. So when I connected the hp to my computer last night to transfer some files over, the "ZERO MSN contact list" got updated on my computer and so I lost all contacts on my computer. It was like a freak accident.
But luckily I managed to get the contacts by sourcing around. But now my worry is that if I were to connect my phone to the PC again, it would update ths system and thus delete all MSN contacts on the computer again. Any idea how I can change this setting on the phone? or by re-installing msn mesenger on the phone again? If so, does anyone have the MSN folder to share, because its a default file from the phone itself.
Thanks for all the help...
Cheers
Hi,
You can uninstall the LiveMessenger application but it would be easier to switch identity (so that there is no profile for hotmail user) and log in to application again. When you do so untick the selection of 'merge contacts'.
I went through the same grief!
You can download the app from Dutty http://www.duttythroy.net/download-area.html?task=view.download&cid=24

Hi
How did you get your contacts back? Cause the same happened to my, but I only lost a few contacts... I was looking to recover them, but i dont find any information about it....
I will appreciate your help..
Hey just got the phone today. Ive got my phone synced to the pc fine. Although i cant see how in outlook etc to manage my contacts. I knowi t copyed them over but i dont know how to choose what goes over.
But thats not the problem. The problem is taht i set up msn on it and i stupidly synced my contacts with the emails and now i have around 400 email adresses in my contact list that i want to remove and am unsure how. Ive been looking for the folder its self on the phone also with no luck, but i shall keep probing away.
Thanks, newby error i know
:EDIT:
the option in windows live to "store windows live contacts in your mobile phone cvontact list" is ticked and greyed out so im not sure what to do bout this.

this fine little tool might help you out

There's no way to select contacts for sync AFAIK, but you can create multiple contact lists in outlook, and only the primary one will be synced.

Cheers mate! Did the job perfectly, erased all the emails and not the numbers
Now all i gota do is get orange to finaly activate my phone, sigh. Why cant things ever just work eh? Wait 24 hours for a text suposidly... never came lol.
Dear all,
Did a search and could not find anything that related to my specific problem. So apologies if I did not look hard enough.. BUT...
I finally cleaned up all my contacts on google and synched my phone with googlesynch rather than sony synch. Great all fine, except.. if I create a contact in my x10, so someone calls me, I add their number as a new contact. When I next synch the contacts, the new contact has been deleted!
I can not for the life of me find any setting on the x10 which chooses how it synchs and why it keeps deleting the contacts!?
Any help advice would be appreciated...
What happens if u go to settings, data synchronization, google sync, n check the auto sync option n then add the new contact?
perhaps mayb try mess with the option at the bottom, group synchronization?
hope its of any use!!
Sent from my rooted x10i using swype via xda!!
Tried autosynch, and manual synch, and unselected all the group options. Stilll no joy. I presume this works fine for everyone else?

Yep, works fine for me.
i had this prob...
since then stopped using sync services..
whenever u need a backup of ur contacts, jus go to contacts tab and select backup to mem card.
a .vcf file is created in the storage card\system\pim folder which has all ur contacts..

Don't have my X10 with me at the moment but isn't there an option on which direction to sync? Directly on the X10 or on Gmail website settings?
Unless I'm thinking of Windows Mobile Device Center

I can't see that option on my Xperia, but not checked gmail settings as it either updates my phone if I create a contact in gmail or in gmail if created on my phone.
Hi all,
Could not find any settings to decide which way to synch. Hard Reset the phone and all works fine now! Thanks for all the suggestions though.
I had a slight suspicion it might have been to do with the googlemail.co.uk changing to gmail.com? But then why would the original synch work with the other contacts? maybe it would not allow googlemail account to add into gmail account?
Anyhow, after a full reset (and registering gmail on the phone) it seems to be fine now, touch wood(!)
Thanks again
For the first time ever , i used button synchronize in my original Stock callendar by Samsung. Suddenly , i lost everything. Hundrets of events planned for months. I almost threw my phone on the ground. I am so furious right now......... Could you help me ? I am lost without this....

What calendar were you sync'ing to? Maybe go and check the settings on that? If everything is there, try uninstalling and reinstall calendar & see if it picks them up again.
Also before that, maybe check to see which way the sync is set up - you don't want to go sync'ing all the blankness up to the other calendar.
