A strange thing happened when i go from my Samsung S5 to the samsung S8. The problem was also there with the s5 showing 2 exchange contact links, but now it is even getting worse.
Some contacts are synced with 4 the same exchanges, and i need to be alerting that i save every contact change on all the contact exchange links to be sure i don't lose anything.
Anybody know how i can solve this? as google didn't give me an answer, i am asking the experts here
See screenshots in attachment.

I have had no real issues with my N1 since I got it. I have been using CM's roms. The other day I noticed that when I was making and receiving calls the wrong organization was showing up. I noticed that if I deleted a contact and reentered it it fixed that contact. I have 200+ contacts with multiple entries and would like to see if anybody has an easier way to fix this problem.
Thanks in advance,
Manny
same here.
the organization is shown up wrong in the in-call page.
in my case, the contacts were synced via Gmail. I've checked there and the information is set correctly. even on the phone, if I go to edit the contact details, the organization is shown correctly. only when in the in-call page, the information is wrong...
tried to re-sync several times with Gmail after changing some information, only to test, but it won't correct the situation...
Same here. Contacts sync'd from Google/Gmail. Everything shows up find on both Google and phone's contact list, but in-call display shows something different.
I though it was me lol!
Yeh i noticed that, not sure if it was doing this on older cyanogen roms or not.
Funny...I get one contact picture for all of my contacts that have an organization assigned??? She's not even in the organization.
I am glad that I am not the only one. I even turned of sync and deleted all the contacts on my gmail and on phone. Then restored a back up to my gmail account and let the phone sync up but it didn't fix it. The only way I have corrected it on some contacts is to delete them and reenter them. Its okay when the only have one number but when they have multiple numbers and emails it will be a hassle.
i hope this gets into cyanogene's issue list and will be fixed within the next release.
I have the same issue.
Is anyone experiencing this issue syncing their contacts with Facebook? This was an issue for me when I first got my N1 and not syncing my contacts with Facebook fixed it.
same issue here.
Me too got same bug
I am glad that I am not the only one, but I would have expected someone to have a solution. I will have to do more searching.
Wrong Organization
I am also getting wrong organization for the calls coming in. It is quite disconcerting, because I need this data to be right. However, I fulfill this need by using the name and number to figure it out myself, and by asking the caller who they're calling from. This should be fixed soon.
I have model Nexus One, firmware 2.1-update1, baseband 32.24.00.22U_4.03.00.21_2, kernel 2.6.33.1-cyanogenmod [email protected] #1, mod version CyanogenMod-5.0.5.3-N1, build #EPE54B.
P.S., with all my "should"s, of course I am very grateful for any and all work that's gone into this for otherwise uncompensated work. I'm leaning toward learning this programming myself, so if anybody insists and points me to the right primers, I could fix it myself.
I have all my contacts on google and they sync with my i9000 including the pictures and numbers and everything else. My contacts are organized in groups in google. The problem is: These group names do not show up on the phone.
I think I found out why: Because of Samsung's faulty implementation of the contacts app.
Check it like this:
Create a new group called 'test' in GMail and put a new contact in it. Wait for the sync. Now the contact quite surely _is_ on the phone.
Now try to create a group on the phone with the name 'test'.
==> Not possible, error says "Group name already in use".
The other way round does not work either. If you create a group on the phone, it's not synced to GMail, because the grouping function seems limited to the phone.
I found out that, using other Android phones, you can select "sync groups" in your google sync preferences. This is just not implemented on the i9000.
I'm really wondering why on earth Samsung did this.
Any ideas how this could be solved?
I tried aContacts, but it's more a workaround than a solution.
Can we replace the Samsung contacts app with the stock Android one?
This seems to be a Samsung related issue according to other threats on the website. Indeed very anoying. I'm hoping on a fix from Samsung here very soon as well!
syncing groups?!
Mine doesn't offer that option. The gmail contact shows up in my contacts, but there is no group information attached. SUCK

Hi guys,
I recently flashed my phone and 2 weird things happened:
1. my facebook no longer push notifications to me real time like it used to do before. I've searched through all the settings and could not find a parameter which does this. Any advise guys?
2. I have 3 gmail accounts running simultaneously. One main one and 2 others are for receiving spams from advertisers etc. Everytime I try to share an article via email, it kept bringing up the spam gmail account as default in the send account field. How do I change it to my main one?
Thanks in advance guys.

About that facebook thing, I havent rooted mine and it doesnt give me realtime push notifications at all. I always get them few hours after I read them on a PC.
when did FB start to support PUSH? the lowest update intervall is 30 minutes :S
so i have it of to save battery.
My dad just got a note 3 from an iphone 5. This was a huge step for him and he loves the phone. The only problem is his Exchange email folders are not syncing. This is a deal breaker for him and he will go back to iphone if I cant resolve this issue.
Sending and receiving emails works great. The sub folders are the only problem. His folder structure looks something like thins
Inbox
-HR
-Personnel
--person1
--person2
-To Do
Inbox and HR are the only two folders showing up. I have removed and re-added the account too many times to count. I set the sync to 1 month and manually put emails from today in the missing folders. I have tried 3 days sync as well, no luck. I have gone though ever single setting and cant figure this issue out.
Today I downloaded touchdown and folders synced perfectly. Is there something I am missing? Are others having this issue? I haven't found any solutions on Google or Searching this forum.
One last thing, I am one of the admins for the company. No other Android or Samsung users have this issue. We have exchange 2007 and 2010.
Thanks,
MC

It's a known issue. Some stock email apps don't sync all folders. You can use either Touchdown on your Note 3 or buy a Sony Xperia Z1, where the stock email is able to sync all folders. :cyclops:
Unless Samsung updates the Email App, there is no way to fix your problem.
thanks. are there any better alternatives to touchdown. The UI is horrendous. Not a fan of K9 either. But at least they work
K9 seems to have been updated since I last looked at it. Ill give that a shot too. Are all users having this issue. This particular user has an ridiculous amount of email. but I don't think that is the issue here.

REALLY? How?
Do tell me, because I have a friend with a Z1 and is cursing exactly because he cannot exactly that.
And he has a tree of around... 50 tree nodes in his mail, that he needs to MANUALY set to "push" one by one! (exactly like my Galaxy Note 1)
Do you know a better way?
Try k9..not the app store version.. download from the development site
http://code.google.com/p/k9mail/downloads/list
Try 4.800 the 4.801 file is corrupt I think.
Been using this .

I have the same issue
Hi, I got Galaxy bought 3 4G model & we are using Exchange Email Cloud (Office 365). See guys, I was using Galaxy Note 2 with the same email address & account (Nothing changed on the Exchange Configuration) & the stock email with Note 2 working perfectly (Android Version 4.1.2).
As I can see the Note 3 has Android 4.3 & Stock email has an updated version (Lighter GUI). I'm trying to analyse the problem but it seems the problem is from the stock email where Samsung should have an update that can fix this big issue.
BTW, I tried also to configure another account on the same device (Note 3) & the problem still appear.
I have a suggestion guys, what about sending an email to Samsung directly describing the issue. It might help? Am I Right?
Awaiting your feedback.
Stock email app
Same issue here. Very annoying. Been using touchdown for awhile and I love it. Does anyone know whether you can create subfolders of inbox (running exchange) in touchdown?
Hi all,
Bought a unlocked G6 about a month ago after owning a G3. So far I am really happy with it, however it bugs me that the "Me" contact does not pull the information from Google - i.e. the Duo app is not shown there, the address (work or home) from Google isn't there neither. Is there a way to link the information?
Thanks for your time and looking forward to your replies.
Wasn't this suppose to be automatic?
Well, that would have been my thought but it doesn't work on my phone for some reason.
This is still bugging me massively, am I the only one in this situation?
I've just checked on my G6 and it doesn't show any info for me at all.
Update: I've just added my home address using the edit function and now my info does show.
Indeed if you edit the contact info it will show.
My point is that the contact should be pulling info from your or mine Google account information and it doesn't.
Well for me contact syncing doesn't work at all on stock(/fulmics) rom.
I've re-added some colleagues a couple of times only to lose them again on full wipes.
Everything working as it should now on LineageOS.

Starting with Android 5.0, multiple user accounts are allowed to be set up on an Android phone. Maybe your gmail info is deliberately not linked to the phone's own number to prevent "other" users of the phone (who may have different gmail addresses) from using those info?

This is possible, I have three gmail account for myself on the phone. However, technically it would be really easy for them to make you select which account you would like to be your main one.
Anyway, thanks.
