Contact List vs Facebook Contacts

I have many contacts stored via Backup Assistant of people that are also Facebook contacts. However, the information I have for many of my BA contacts is information they do not include on Facebook and therefore they are now showing up as two different entries. Is there a way to eliminate the Facebook contact entries without removing the Facebook app? I also have a number of contacts on Facebook (like high school friends) that I would never need to call and don't want to scroll through them to find the numbers I really need. TIA!

Hi -

This happened to me and I hate it. I may just go through and delete everything when I get a chance.

What I did was, make everyone I actually call a "favorite" and then I display just that in my contacts.

There is a way, I do not remeber how I did it, I believe I deleted the account and found an app. I do have a FB shortcut and do not have the contacts

you can install FB for android and its free, the FB icon will be on your apps page after you install. Hope that helps

Open the facebook-app and press the menu-button, then go to settings. Under the item contact-sync, you can select which facebook-contacts are synced with your phone. There are 3 options (none, only contacts that are already on your phone, all contacts). Selecting none should solve your problem.
