HELP! Android Contact groups are empty!

Hey all
I was trying to backup my contacts to google. With my phone(galaxy s2) i went to contacts-> merge with google. After that, some of my groups(which i created myself in contacts- example: clients, leads, customers etc) are empty!!! I'm not sure whether all the contacts are there and just not organized into groups, or maybe they were deleted! I wasn't able to restore this, no matter what I tried- and I've tried everything for an hour now!
Please help.... I'm desperate :_(
 
Re: HELP! Android Contact groups are empty!

Welcome to Android Central! Are the actual contacts synced to your Google account? Go to Google Contacts on the web--are the contacts there? If so, then at least they're safe. The group designations you created on the Phone account (not synced with Google) probably don't carry over to Google Contacts. I would create new Google Contact Groups (easiest to do in the Google Contacts site on your computer browser), and these groups will then be synced to your phone.
