Multiple addresses in contacts profile?

[rpoli86]

I imported all of my contacts from my gmail so each contact profile shows "gmail" as its "connection".

Randomly my contacts will add "device" as a connection. Why does this happen? This is forcing each contact to have the same addresses doubled in the profile. It's annoying when I click my girlfriend and it shows her phone number and address twice...ect.

any way to fix this? btw I'm not even backing my contacts up to my device so I'm unsure how this happens.
