I'm rooted, and have installed several different many times as I check them out. One of the things that has been most frustrating, is how my simple phone contacts are now connected to Google, and multiple instances of other (duplicate) phone and Google of the same contact.
How is this happening? When I flash a new ROM, I skip through all screen setups, click on People, and then Import my contacts from the .vcf file on the SD card. This way, when I exit and set up my Google account, they are only syncing. I really don't care to have Google back up my phone contacts if exporting them to a file on the SD card will work just as well.
What are the differences when we open/edit a contact in our People list? Why does a simple contact with basic information now have Google bits, or duplicates. And, if I unlink them all, and delete all except for one last remaining 'unique' contact - I could literally lose ALL phone numbers and addresses that I used to have. Grrrr.
Thanks!
