Hey all, new here. How's everyone?
Just purchased Samsung Galaxy S Epic (Sprint). Love the phone, except...
When I import my Facebook contacts, and they have nothing for phone numbers on their profile (blank or otherwise), edit contact doesn't appear on the "push-and-hold menu". Same happens when I enter a new contact, and forget to enter a phone number. The only solution I've found so far is to delete and manually enter all the information again, creating the link afterwards.
Is this the only way? Following instructions step-by-step, I get the same results. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
