    Google Contacts non stop "Getting contacts, this may take a while..."

    I see. I am actually not from US. I have also never gotten a contract phone from my carrier previously.

    Thanks for all the input. I think I have already gone far enough into territory I normally don't feel comfortable with. Cheers!

    At this moment I have resorted to disabling Googles Contact App, to prevent it from getting contacts non stop, possibly draining my battery life at the background. I have installed another simple contacts app, turning off all syncing, and it works fine. I can live without syncing no problem.

    Lol. This is not a cell phone carrier contract phone. So there is nothing pre-installed by the carrier. It puzzled greatly me as well. My wife has an exact same phone bought a couple of months ago. No problem at all.

    Anyway. I think we probably kill all the possibilities there is out there. Thanks for all the help. I will just not sync anything. I can live with that no problem. Cheers

    I think I should add a little more about what I have done earlier. When this problem first occurred, I actually did a factory reset, and start them beginning again. Same thing. Also, my old phone went completely dead. Couldn't be started. Would that be a problem? I also log out my Google...

    I actually did a factory reset, Okay. I did that. Clear cache and Force Stop. (There seems to be no storage that can be cleared, it was blurred out).

    Device Setup don't allow me to clear cache or storage. Also don't allow me to Force Stop. It says blocked by IT Admin

    Anyway, I thought it was going to be an easy fix. Apparently not. Besides this, the phone functions well. I also do not need to sync everything that I have on my phone. I really don't want to take up too much of everyone's time. I appreciate all the help. Thank you.
