Unfortunately I've already tried that and had no luck. Hope it helps!Thanks for the note back, appreciate you taking the time to respond. I had the same problem and the easiest way I found to fix it was:Įverything should be just fine after that. Open up the contacts here and you will see E V E R Y T H I N G! You can delete them from here and not have to worry about them syncing top your phone again. Click on that and you will see a drop down menu for 'contacts' and 'tasks'.

When you log in to your Gmail on your PC you will see 'Gmail' in the upper left corner, just below 'Google'. I'm sure there are easier ways to do this, but since I don't know of any, or work at the Googleplex, the only way I have been able to do this is to delete them from my main Google account. Removing them from the phone doesn't do much because your contacts sync back in from Google. Is it possible that syncing contacts with Skype/Linkedin etc put the contacts into your phone but 'unsyncing' doesn't remove them?I've had similar issues, though not with Skype. Her cell number is part of her Skype contact and part of the contact I set up for her.but when she calls it shows up as the Skype contact. She shows up in my call history.when I hold down and click on 'View Contact' it shows that it's a Skype contact. This time, choose not to sync your Skype contacts when given the option. Go to Settings > Account & sync > Skype, and from the menu button, select 'Remove' and tap 'OK' on the prompt.Ģ. Now, if you want to get rid of your Skype contacts from the phone's contact list, unchecking the 'sync' doesn't work, as you've found. after a contact is linked, that person would only show up once under the same entry. If it doesn't make link suggestions, you can always link the contact yourself, by tapping on the 'Link' button, and selecting the other contact source. I'm not quite sure what you mean when you say that your Skype contacts have made their way into your contacts on your phone, yet are not listed when you look under all your contacts in People.īut in regards to your wife showing up twice because she's in your phone contact and also a Skype contact, you know that you can link your contacts, right? Typically, the phone even tells you when it thinks its found contacts from multiple sources that are the same people, when you go to 'People.' I've searched high and low but have had no luck. It's just a big annoyance.since I have a contact for my wife on my phone and she's a contact within Skype, she shows up twice in my phone.Īlso, the Skype contacts are not listed when I look under all my contacts in People. Is there a way to manually go in a clear out all contacts without a complete reset of the phone? If that's possible I would then just need to go in and sync my gmail contacts back in. So I'm thinking the Skype contacts got synced in at one point or another and now do not want to leave. Ironically, when I unclick my gmail contacts, they stay in my phone.

Under contacts, you see a list (with checkmarks next to each one) for where your contacts have been imported from (Skype, GMail, Outlook, Linkedin etc) and I only have Gmail checked.

I would think that would do it, but it's turned off and the contacts are still there. To start, there is an option within Account Setting of Skye to turn sync with your contacts on or off. I've done everything I can try to remove them but nothing has worked yet. I'm looking for some help trying to remove my Skype contacts that have somehow made their way into my contacts on my phone.
