Duplicate Contacts and the Droid X
Ok, I use MarkSpace’s Missing Sync for Android on my Snow Leopard Mac to synchronize everything to my Verizon Droid X Android phone. About 3 months ago it developed a duplicate for most every contact I have. The duplicates are not on my Mac and they are not showing from another sync source.
I found this on the net and it seems to work pretty well:
Go to “Manage Applications” and select Contacts Storage and Contacts apps and clear the data for both then reboot the Droid. The droid should come back up with only the default Verizon contacts (e.g., #BAL, #MIN, Voice Mail, etc.). Then resync the phone with Missing Sync for Android (MarkSpace; it’s in the Market) and Bob’s your uncle… Only one set of contacts…
Be sure your Mac’s contact list is up to date before you do this because it will wipe out everything on your phone.
