I'm not sure what you mean by main friends but maybe this would be a good time to do some friends purging

I know exactly what you are talking about. I only want my contacts to consist of those from my work Outlook. But it has pulled in all my Facebook contacts which I don't want or need in there. When I go into Contacts and hit the option key, I click the "display group" and select my work Outlook group but it does not keep this as a default. It's a big hassle having to do this all the time. On my Incredible I was able to tell it to not sync Facebook contacts, etc. but it doesn't seem we can do that on the X.

I hope someone can make me stand corrected!

i know what ur saying i just figured that out. so not that i made it my gmail account ur saying it wont stay that way?

It seems to stay set to the selected group until you power off and reboot the X and then it goes back to "all" contacts. It's not the end of the world for me and I can deal with it but it sure would be nice to have the X just not pull the Facebook contact info at all.

My other gripe is that it sorts the contacts by first name. I am still trying to figure out if there is a way to change it to sort by last name. And also, when you access your contacts through the dialer, it yet again shows them all (Facebook, etc.) with no apparent way to filter it.

 

[deekum1627]

thats weird and kinda sucks lol. i hear your point it should be one way or the other

I can't figure this out either! I have my main Outlook contacts and that's who I want to see at first glance. Can't get it to stay as default. Wish I could figure this out.
