I finally got the Google sync issue resolved (the contacts had not been synching with Google since June 25). Unfortunately, I had to reset the phone to fix the problem. I have added a new contact to my phone. I initially added it as a phone contact and then went into the settings and synched the contacts with Google. I logged into Gmail and looked at my contacts -- the newly added contact was nowhere to be found. I then deleted this new contact and added it back, but this time made a Google contact. I then went back into Gmail and looked at my contacts -- again the same problem. The new contact was nowhere to be found. What is the point of having my contacts synch to Google if they don't show up. If I ever have to reset again, I will lose this new contact that I entered. What am I doing wrong to prevent it from showing up online?
