Motorola Photon 4G :: How To Delete Duplicate Contacts
Aug 22, 2011
I have just returned from the Sprint store where they reset my Photon and synced with my old phone after I couldn't get rid of my duplicate contacts. I looked in the store and my phone had single recordings of the contacts, for a total of around 600. I came home, signed in and synced with GMail which only has 3 contacts and was trying to figure out how to send my phone contacts to Gmail. I'm not sure what I did but I suddenly have 1200 contacts on my phone and onl,y 3 contacts in Gmail.

My contacts are updated through CompanionLink with my Palm Desktop. There are duplicates of almost all of the contacts after the sync is completed. To remove the duplicates I use Contact Remover. Each duplicate is reviewed with this program and indicates either "Account Motorola" or Account MyGmail Address.
How do I stop this duplication during every update from my desktop?

I had an EVO. it synced all my facebook contacts with my phonebook contacts. So i could look at pics and statuses from my phonebook. Im assuming this phonebook doesnt work that way. it added facebook contacts before i got to add my real contact list. so now there are doubles of some ppl . and some of my contacts that dont have their phone #'s on fb, i cant link them to my contacts like the EVO would. Also, some contacts that i had linked to facebook show up now with a NOTE under them with a HTClink:for their facebook. (if you can understand that) Also the contacts that say they do have a facebook. when i click go to their page. its just goes to mine. so the links must be screwed up.

When I synced my iPhone 3 to my Motonav, it seemed to take a very long time at the Administrator screen and I don't have that many contacts. I also don't see a progress indicator on the Nav so I tapped OK and synced again. All my contacts were synced, but now they're in the Nav twice. How do I delete the duplicates? Or wipe them all out and start fresh?

I recently purchased an iPhone 4S (came from a droid) and my contact list was in gmail.The service provider "copied" my contacts from my old phone to my iPhone and when finished, most of them came over in triplicate. Is there a way to merge, delete duplicates; short of manually? If done, will they come back during a sync

iPhone 4S, iOS 5.1

I went to use my contact list and I discovered that my name & several of my contacts had been duplicated in name only, there is nothing attached to the name, but I cannot delete them. This just happened sometime in the last couple of hours, I made no changes during this time. I have a galaxy s5. I tried shutting off the phone and restarting it thinking it may reset itself; it did not change.

I noticed there was a duplicate of a video file in my phone and I can't get rid of it.
I already got the original file off phone but the duplicate is still there. I can't play the file and when I click on the file the delete option is grayed out. I looked in the memory card and there is no file there but the phone still says its there.

Contacts showing lots of (No Name) and Unknown within contacts list.

I have a page on my browser that I want to delete. Somebody I was showing this phone to thought they would be funny and went to a site on my phone that is offensive. That page can't be deleted from my phone. I have gone through the history and bookmarks yet I can't get a delete for this one page. All that comes up is the add book mark (and this add sign stays on the picture in my bookmarks) and it won't allow me to change the bookmark to a page I want. I've been trying for three weeks to get rid of this page and I can't.

never really noticed this as a problem until this past week. When I purchased the phone, I imported my contact list, and that worked out perfectly. Since that time I have not really had the need to save many numbers, but the ones I HAVE saved, I cannot find in my contact list at all...., when I dial their number, the name I typed comes up and they show up in the recent calls list. For example.. I saved the woman who cuts my hair as "Hair Kelly" I can't find it in my contact list, but when I dial her number, it shows up as "Hair Kelly"

I just purchased my phone. I can't view any of my contacts that have only an organization name. I can't view contacts that do not have a first name either. Do I not have a setting correct? Even if I create a new contact I still can't view it.

I have several entry's in my phone contacts (set up as google contacts) where they have no first or last name and only and organization name (i.e. ABC Plumbing Supply). The name shows up in my contact list on my phone, however, when I search for these contacts, either with the search function in the contacts app, or the search glass in the bottom right corner, I do not get these contacts in my search query.I saw another thread where someone had to do a hard reset which seemed to fix this. I really would like to avoid that if possible...Another thread said to clear the contact storage cache - mine currently has 0 kb and is not selectable.

I recently synced outlook, google account, facebook, linked-in etc on my phone. In my contacts folder in outlook (on laptop), my contact list shows my google/facebook/phone contacts and multiplys these contacts thousands of times, literally. I'm up to like 170,000 contacts and its the same 80 people. Its as if its syncing over and over on a continuous loop infinitely?

I just discovered that the Photon doesn't allow adding local (phone) contacts??? The documentation even says an e-mail account has to be set up before you can add a contact to the phone..
So, every contact I've added as been added as a gmail contact. Somehow I have some local contacts on my phone, I think they came over from my Epic.
The problem with this (other than the obvious requirement to have an e-mail account to put someone's phone number my phone!) is that some applications that synch only look at local contacts. For example, I was trying to figure out why another QIK user that is in my address book wouldn't synch and get the QIK user information, yet some of my others did. I found out that all of the ones that did, are local contacts (that were added back on my Epic and moved to this phone). Any contact added via this phone (thus as a Google contact) won't synch with QIK.
Sure, Moto could point fingers at QIK, but this seems like it could happen with others, as they would certainly expect local contacts to be there.

When I started my phone for the first time, it automatically synched my GMail contacts, which I really don't want on the phone. On other Android phones, there was a way to clear the data in Contacts Storage when you went into the app through the app menu. That option is "greyed out" on the Photon, so I can't just erase all the contacts and let my Outlook contacts automatically repopulate.Is there another way to clear Contacts Storage without doing a reset? I"m sure I could get rid of them by starting over, but they I lose all the customization I've already done.

I thought I was imagining this for a while but I can confirm for sure that my Photon loses track of the default number for a contact.
I wernt throught the 5 people in my dialer favorites and selected the default number i.e. work/mobile for each one. Now none of them have a default number selected. Is anyone else experiencing this? It drives me nuts. I have not been able to determine if it is my travel outside of the US and switching numbers that causes it or not. Either way I would not expect that to change my default selections.

is there any way to add a new contact in my phone without having to save them in an email account? I am only given the option to save them in either my gmail or yahoo account and I don't want them saved in either.

I do not want my contacts stored ANYWHERE except on my phone and on my laptop (Outlook; not using exchange server).However, when I try to create a new contact, the phone asks me to select a gmail account.It does not offer any option to select something other than a gmail account.I have accessed all menu settings and have limited my gmail accounts to only syncing gmail.There must be an option to create a new contact without linking it to a gmail account.

Duplicate Contacts (Merge Contacts and Remove Duplicates does not actually work)
I have my contact spread out over mutple source like sim, phone, and accounts.
Problem is each account has duplicates on its own and there has been no cure to this madness.
