How can I enable offline message view in the Gmail app? At the moment I cannot see the folders / messages I have previously viewed when offline.
Thanks!
You can choose the labels and days to be synced in the settings of the gmail app.

how to delete gmail contacts in samsung galaxy S II? I don't see Gmail Contacts in contact list but when I goto MSG and see numbers I see them there.I have deleted all the Contacts from Gmail but I still see them.How to delete them?
Don't allow gmail to synchronize your contacts. If you still have them, go to contact options and allow the phone to show every contact you have and delete the gmail ones.

Hi,
I have skype, whatsapp and a few other apps installed on the phone and their contacts are showing in the main contacts app. I use Google contacts as my main source for contacts.
I want only the contacts from my Google account to show. I can use the 'contacts to display' option to select the google account but this is not good enough as apps like gosms take all the address books available and uses them and as such is pulling old names from whatsapp etc.
How can I remove all the contacts from the contacts app with the exception of my google contacts. If I want a whatsapp or skype contact I will go in to the relevant app.
Please help!

I did do that and it works within contacts but not in other apps that access your contacts like gosms etc.

Deleting whatsapp account just causes it to reappear and deleting skype is not possible, just gives a message saying I would need to wipe the phone to get rid of it.
Issue: When pulling up a contact and clicking on the email address (to send the contact an email), I get a message that says there is no account configured.
I have gmail configured, and I get and send from it all day long. So I don't understand why it doesn't recognize gmail as a valid account.
I set up my gmail account using "email" and it was fine. Am I forced to not use the gmail app, or is there something I'm missing?
Change the action so it's set to go to your Gmail account by default. I believe it's set to use the mail app in sense by default.

I can't find that setting. It isn't in contacts setting or gmail settings. I cleared the default settings in "mail"... but there isn't anything in gmail to make it default.

I noticed that the picture on my contacts are very low resolution and appear pixelated. Is there any way too fix it?
Thanks
Are you using Google to sync contacts? If so try a picture from the phones memory and see if that helps.. Btw I sync with Google but no problems. Are you using full screen caller pics?

I have this same issue, only with me it happens with 4 contacts (2 pairs of folks with the same names) and their photos appear small and pixelated whilst others are larger, crisper and sharp.
I cant seem to figure out why this happens - cant be an issue with the matching names conflicting in the contacts database??

Are you using Facebook to sync your contacts photos? If so:
-go into the app>app settings>scroll near the bottom and un-check sync contact photos.
-exit the app
-go to settings and scroll down to the accounts section, add a new account
-Choose xperia with Facebook (by default this should sync hi-res contact photos and calendar (you can turn either or both on/off)
Using the facebook app account to sync contact photos will provide low-res. Using xperia with facebook will provide hi-res.

I currently have both accounts for this set up. For the majority of my contacts, the images are ok but i cannot shake the feeling these 4 instances are due to my contacts having the same name. But cant figure that out.
I have stopped my Facebook App Sync now so will try and refresh and see what happens with the Xperia Facebook account still active and see how i get on.

When I had both accounts syncing contacts (Facebook and Xperia with Facebook) some contacts would show the hi-res and some the low-res. When I edited the contact photo I could see both the hi-res and low-res available.
Once I disabled the Facebook account contact sync and kept the Xperia with Facebook contacts syncing, and waited a few minutes, only the Hi-Res photos were showing.

No you shouldn't have to, but give it some time to refresh, especially if you have a lot of contacts. I noticed with mine that while it was downloading images, if I went to a contact that still had a low-res photo and went into the contacts details, a few seconds later the image would update to high-res.

Managed to get to WiFi last night after stopping the Facebook App Sync and the issue still remained. I even sync'ed the Xperia Facebook once again and the issue remained.
I then decided to remove my Facebook account from my phone and recommence the process of adding Xperia Facebook account. However this did not allow all my contacts to be sync'ed from Facebook, so I had to resort to using both the Xperia Facebook and Facebook app running.
I then went through all my contacts and what you described above occurred - the blurred images became sharper when viewing the contacts. it was just a case of going through my list and allowing them to become Hi-res and the problem was solved.
A bit long winded but I am happy this worked for me. Still no real idea why it occurred in the first place and also why it only happened to contacts with the same names....very strange indeed!
Thanks for the help!!

You are quite welcome, and I'm glad it worked out, though the process was sluggish. In the end it's worth it because the hi-res contact photos look a world better.
Thanks for reporting back for others.
Worked for me too! Thanks
Hello, I had problems with this too, and I finally used HaxSync, but after I removed facebook app
I keep getting events on my calendar that are ads for whorebots, what I call the messages from "women " claiming they want sex. I included a screenshot. This is Samsung calendars, which is a system app, right? So on a scale of 1-10, how f*#$ed am I? If the virus is system level, can I even fix it?
File didn't post, apparently..
uninstall any apps that you recently installed.
I just noticed some odd entries on my calendar too. It seems to have something to do with Spammy Emails and how Google/Samsung takes events from your email and enters them onto your calendar

I went into my Samsung calendar and went to "manage calendars ", and I was able to deselect Google email and a few other things. Hopefully that will stop it?
I'm curious if the change in settings stopped your flow of "auto dates" being added to the calendar. Does it add them for emails that get tossed in the junk folder? Gmail has been pretty good about sniffing out the whorebots (I love that name for them). Do the events show up in your Google calendar?
Here is an example of the email and the calendar entry. This is in my Spam folder but still shows up on my calendar. I've turned off calendar notifications to my phone but Reminder emails from the calendar show up in Spam folder.

I literally never even look in my spam folder at all. And unless I hid the icon and forgot, Google calendar isn't installed.
