Contacts help PLEASE

[hotis300boy]

So over the years between having, treos both windows to palm, to pre, to evo to now EPIC, I have a few issues with my contacts I need help with please

1. ALL my contact numbers are formatted different some are (xxx) xxx-xxxx others are xxx-xxx-xxxx others are xxxxxxxxxx and this is annoying, is there a way to fix them all in one format rather than one by one considering I have over 800 contacts

2. Some contacts are in proper Gmail groups such as friends, business, family, etc, others cause of the EPIC have no group at all, Is there a way even in gmail contacts to pull up the non category ones only n that way I know exactly which ones to group rather than searching through 800 contacts?

There is a display option under contacts settings you can chose which ones to display.. maybe you should log into gmail, categorize them and then star in android the ones you frequently call.

Another method is to save contacts to a .csv file and edit that way

Addie the problem with looking at it on EPIC is that there is a HUGE glitch on this phone...It will fetch your groups from google however you cannot edit them, add to them or change then which is real stupid actually cause it makes it pointless to have the groups...

My point is I have over 800 contacts and LOTS of them have NO categories that I do need to categories and wish there was a way on gmail to display only the ones that are not in a category

Yes, I see your point. Gmail being as advanced as it is, should offer filtering of non categorized contacts.
