Accidentally hid contact?

So I was going through my call list and didn't like all the frequently called numbers on my favorites list, so I figured I'd just delete them. Well I longpressed a contact and for whatever reason clicked delete contact. It said I can't delete contacts from a read only list but I can hide them. Then the contact was gone, not just from my favorites list but also from my contacts list.

So I went to re-add the contact, but now it simply won't link up to facebook. I originally added it via facebook (clicking their thumbnail image) and the image, email, phone number, etc were all imported into my favorites. Now when I click this person's image, nothing comes up.

I'm guessing I somehow hid the contact and it's just preventing me from accessing it in any way. Does anyone know how to revert this?

Would help to know what phone you have. Did you try accessing your contacts through the Gmail site? Maybe the contact got moved to a group (Hidden?) and will still appear in the All Contacts list. You can probably unhide it from there.

It's not appearing under my google contacts, and I have every checkbox checked in regards to displaying contacts under that account.

I can still add the contact manually by entering the number, but if I try to click the thumbnail of the person from within facebook, I don't get that little popup which lets me add them. It's like I've somehow blocked any sort of syncing with this number.

i did the same thing. what i did was i deleted the facebook account (you have to go to accounts and sync and delete it) then i added the facebook account again and did the process over. once i did that everything came ack but no pics showed so i turned the phone off and turned it back on and the contact i hid reappeared along with the pic and everything. hope that helps
