Samsung T599 Android Version 4.1.2 - Gmail contacts Sync

[Kendall Kodey]

Everytime I sync my Gmail contacts to this phone they cause them to disappear off my main gmail account. I've done restore, but then once my phone access the contact list again they are gone. I did not realize this after the first restore and now it's been too long (gmail only allows 29 days to restore) since I last restored to see any of the 100's of contacts I manually entered into Gmail! Someone please help as gmail is useless for help on any issue! Is this a phone issue, an android issue, or a gmail issue?

Without experimenting with your phone (and your Google contacts) I can't tell you what's causing it, but I can tell you how to prevent the work you have ahead of you.

Once you have all your contacts back on the site, export them. Save the exported file somewhere. You can always impoort it to the site again, saving yourself hours of typing.
