HELP: How do I stop verizon contacts syncing with Gmail contats?

[missy2]

I keep updating my contacts on the Verizon contact back-up site but my Gmail contacts (which are not updated) keep over-riding my corrections in my Droid 2 & Verizon back-up assistant. Please help. How do I disconnect the syncing from Gmail?

Menu - settings - accounts, tap your google account and uncheck the sync gmail box.

Thank you very much for your quick response. 

I unchecked sync contacts & sync gmail.

Will I still get Gmail on my phone & still be able to sync my Gmail calendar with my phone?

I'm sorry, I was half asleep. I meant uncheck the sync contacts box.

You don't need to uncheck the sync gmail box.

Unchecking the contacts box will still let you get your calendar and gmail.
