Specs: AT&t Galaxy S2 i777 with android 4.04.
I am not sure what is causing the problem, but all of the sudden the CONTACTS app is acting up. It is showing contacts from my phone and synced google account at the same time, which results in multiple identical entries. Also, the AT&T address book bugs me to sync it every time I use the Contacts app (even after I have synced it multiple times. The main problem seems to be that both the local contacts stored on my phone and the contacts synced with my google account want to be displayed at the same time. Now I can go into setting and change the "Contacts to Display" to one or the other and it will do it, but once I close the app and reopen it, it goes back to displaying both of them again. As a result of this, it makes voice dial totally useless, because when I try, it just comes back and say, "Multiple Contacts Found". Since the contacts are identical, there is no voice command that you can say to get the voice dialer to choose one or the other, so you have to get you phone out and manually select one, which defeats the purpose of the voice dial function. I did a factory reset on my phone, but the problem persist.
My questions are, can I fix this problem, or should I look for a better contacts manager? Thanks.
