Hundreds of worthless contacts on my phone
Posted: Thu Nov 06, 2008 10:53 pm
Hi there
I have the following problem: I decided to synchronize my contacts and events of my computer with the ones of my smartphone. After I did this, I found out that I have a massive amount of contacts on my smartphone, named "," (no first and last name), basically contacts that consist only of email addresses to which I previously wrote an email answer in thunderbird. However, I actually use my smartphone ONLY for phoning. This means, that I actually only intended to have only the contacts synchronized that actually contain at least one phone number as well.
Questions:
1) How can I get what I actually need (only synchronize contacts that make sense on a smartphone, and not "email address only" contacts in my address book on PC that don't even have a name assigned to it)? Would this belong into the suggestions forum?
2) How can I effectively and manually delete the massive amount of useless contacts on my smartphone?
Greetings,
NZ
