I was used to having my contacts on my phone be the same as what was in my google contact list. now it seems that HTC contacts are stored on the phone and when I add one, it doesnt sync with my google contacts. Is there a setting that I can change to only use google contacts and not the local "people" contact list? or is there an app that I can install that would replace the "people" contact list? I dont want my contacts local to my phone. I want my google contact list to be my only contact list.

Thunderbolt Contacts not updating in google
- Thread starter rustinq
- Start date
I have sync turned on for google and contacts is checked. I am not able to find where to turn on sync in People. In the people app i can link a contact in google with a local contact, but it doesnt sync that info up with google.
Had any luck sorting this out or finding a fix? Or can the masses confirm if this is/should be working? My GF and I now sync our iPhone address book on our phones through gmail with one account and it works great for us. I can't imagine going back to trying to manage our phones separately and keeping the consistent through manual labor.
So once u change that if you login to gmail and modify the contact does that get updated on your phone too?
With my iPhone my gmail is setup as an exchange account with contacts set to sync so no matter where I update it local on the phone, my gf's phone or gmail directly they all are consistent. Im still thinking trying to get my head around if this works with the TB/android so I have something else to help try to sell her on and finally ditch at&t

Start here, http://www.droidforums.net/forum/th...dated-easy-root-available-3-step-process.html. This is how I rooted mine. Just be prepared to possibly devote a few hours of times if you have to restart the application several times like I had to. It is worth the trouble to obtain root!
I just figured that out! lol I was wondering why everytime I flash to a new rom my new contacts don't get pushed over :biggrin:
Not the best workaround, but on my computer I added a Google Contact with the same name as on my phone. I entered the name and email address, because on the phone the contact only had the phone number. Within seconds I got a notification to link the two contacts. I assume you can create a contact on the computer with just the name and no other info. It should still sync with the phone contact.
