Displaying Contacts on EVO Shift

[jjackson#AC]

I want to only display certain Google contacts on my EVO Shift. I used to own a Nexus One and was able to display certain groups from my google account on my contact list on the phone.

It appears that on this EVO Shift I must display either all or none of my google contacts. I have created groups on my gmail account and have sorted all my contacts into these groups and only want to display certain groups on my phone.

Is this possible on this phone? If I root the phone will that allow me to do what I was able to do on the Nexus one.

Thanks for the help in advance!

Unfortunately we are stuck with HTCs people for contacts sense and the HTC software is superior in many ways but Google got it rite on some things this is one of them. What you can do is use the HTC people widget to display a specific group. Keep in mind you can use more than one people widget I have 2 screens dedicated to people just to split the groups.
