Hello
On my (Eclair) Android phone the contact list is driving me crazy.
I set it all up to synch to Google -- neat! Worked great.
Then I installed the facebook app. All of the sudden my 250 facebook friends were in my contact list. Real safe scrolling through that while driving. Finally got that disconnected, although the facebook profile pictures are still in my contact list.
Then I installed Skype. Again, without asking, my Skype contact list has now overlaid my contact list. The description for phone numbers that were in my Skype contact list overwrote the Android list, but when I bring them up to edit I see the old description. In other words there is no way to edit the description being displayed in the contact list anymore.
I've gone through every dialog I could find and unchecked all synch options. However the Skype contact list is still there.
In the Accounts menu, Facebook and Skype do not show as synched (gray indicator).
Since all my phone numbers are backed up into Google/Gmail can someone tell me how to reset the contact list and reload it from Google?
A contact list should be the most simple, easy, basic function -- it was on my iPhone. How can this be such a disaster?
