Remove Twitter and Facebook contacts from Contacts list (Droid 2)

Just got my Droid 2.  I setup my Facebook and Twitter accounts.  I have lots of people in there that I really don't want to clutter my contacts list on my phone.  How do I prevent these people, or selectively prevent people, from my Twitter/FB accounts from showing in my contacts list on my phone?

Go to your contacts list, hit menu>display options then go to the facebook and twitter accounts and make sure display all contacts is unchecked.

I don't see a Display Options.  When I go to Contacts list, I hit the menu.  I don't see any options for display, so I click the "More+" button.  From there I see only the following:

 

My Info

Manage Accounts

Settings

Share name cards

Import/Export

 

Went into each of these menus and nothing giving me ability to hide Twitter/Facebook accounts.

For me, Menu -> More -> Manage Accounts, then pick an account (twitter for example) and uncheck Sync Contacts. For Facebook, the only option (again, under Manage Accounts) is to remove the account.

To remove double contacts steps are listed below.


  1. Open the Facebook application.

  2. Touch the Menu button and select Settings.

  3. Scroll down and touch Sync Contacts.

  4. Select Remove Facebook data.  This will delete all Facebook contacts from your phone (but don’t worry, they’re read-only and we’ll restore them in the next step).

  5. Repeat the entire process but this time change the synchronization settings back to Sync all.

When I go to accounts>Facebook, I'm only given the option of removing it. I have a Droid 2. Also, there are no sync/unsync choices in the Facebook For Android (downloaded from the Market) or in contacts. 

 

Any advice?

saltire08 Try login out Facebook application and Facebook on your mobile browser. Log back in then you will get the option to sync existing and proceed with the login.
