Imported Contacts Not Merging

[bkurt01]

So this may be too unique a problem for anyone else to have tips...but why not give it a go...

At the Sprint store, the rep imported my contacts from my Pre over to the Photon. Then, I linked up my Facebook account. Problem is, they won't merge. So if I have a John Smith from Facebook, and I also have an imported John Smith that came from the Pre, they won't merge into the same contact listing (even if they have the same phone number listed, email address, etc). Instead, it lists John Smith twice. I'd love to have one merged listing for contacts with both, combining whatever information I have on them from my Pre with whatever info they have filled out on their FB profile (and the nice added touch of seeing their FB pic on their contact when calling or sending texts to them).

Any ideas? Thanks!

Go to john smith, then press your menu button. Then edit contact. Then press your menu button again. Then select join. Then pick facebooks john smith and that should be it.

Perfect! I would have NEVER come up with that one. Thank you! Wish there was a way to merge the whole list, or have it present a list to do them at once.

Thanks again!

Do you really have to merge each contact individually! Say it ain't so!
