[Q] Galaxy S3 wont sync contacts, but sync calendar and email - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Device: GT-I9300
Android: 4.1.2 I9300DXELK1
Exchange: 2007
I'm having trouble syncing contacts, but calendar and email works fine. I have two other exchange accounts installed, and one of them is syncing calendar and the other one just email.
I have tried to remove all Exchange accounts on the phone, and re-installed first he main account witch won't sync contacts. At this point it works just fine. But after a while, it stops.
I have a bunch of other apps that access the contact list in case it can have anything to to with the problem:
I use Viber, Skype, WhatsApp, Facebook Cantact Sync from WeedNET, and several of the contacts are combined in the phone.
Can anyone help?

[Q] Can't access multiple email accounts

I have just got my SII and am trying to connect to both of my Google accounts - my Gmail account is the one I use for trash & Market, my Google Apps account is the one I need for email, contacts & calendar.
It syncs the Gmail account fine, connects to the Google Apps account fine but only shows Calendar & Contacts for sync, the email account is missing. I was using a Nexus One fine with both accounts but the SII just won't see the G_Apps email.
Anyone got any ideas ?
Handset from O2 UK, locked I assume.

O___o
That is a bit of a bummer. I use at least 2 Google Apps accounts... Though I'm pretty sure that this sort of functionality comes from the Google stuff, rather than Samsung...
Did you add them both in the same way?

prolly your are forgetting a checkbox... are you syncing both accounts?
in gmail app, under accounts do you see both accounts?
I have both a GMail account and a Google Apps account - both are syncing fine here, showing sync options for calendar, contacts and mail for both accounts.
So must be something specific to your setup - definitely not a SGS2 or Google limitation
Can't work out why this happened, it is working now so it may have been a setting or anything, I deleted the G_Apps account & added it again & it all worked.
Thanks

[Q] Cannot sync google contacts to Streak contacts

Just purchased a Streak running Android 2.3.3. I set up my gmail account on phone and everything looked ok. Mail and calendar appear to sync fine but only a few contacts synced. When I open Settings/Accts & Sync, the gmail account shows and sync is turned on.But if I open Contacts/menu/Accounts, gmail does not appear and if I try to add an account, gmail is not present as an option. How do I get the google contacts to sync?
If I remember right you have to go into your Google Contacts on a web browser and move all your contacts into your My Contacts area.
problem solved
I discovered the problem. I had used Root Uninstaller to freeze the Google Sync application at the time I was trying to reduce the apps I didn't think I would need. Now everything in sync. Thanks

[Q] Disable email sync in "Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync" account

It's strange, but I want to sync only calendar and contacts with my work account (Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync account).
In my old HTC Wildfire, under Settings-Account, I was able to choose what items I want to sync: calendar, contacts and/or email.
But with my new SGSII I can only choose calendar, contacts and task.
I can't tick or untick the email mark, it isn't.
It works well, syncing my email, but I don't know how to deactivate email sync and go on with calendar and contacts sync.
Does anybody know how to do this, is the diference the android version ? (if the cause is the version, what about ICS ?
Thanks a lot.
Anybody ?
Thanks a lot.

[Q] Linkedin incomplete sync

Hi,
I have a galaxy note with gingerbread, rocket rom (I don't understand much about roms, if necessary I can upload a screenshot of the "about" section).
I use the built in contacts app, and sync it with my gmail contacts, facebook contacts, and linkedin contacts.
I noticed that on the linkedin account, only the first 70 contacts out of 98 sync with the phone. Meaning that on the computer, I have 98 contacts on the linkedin web site, but on the phone I only see the first 70 (alphabetically), and the rest are simply missing. I have some of these contacts also on gmail and facebook, so I have the contacts on the phone, but it's like they don't have a linkedin account as well.
Tried removing the linkedin account, restarting the phone, and adding the account back but nothing changed.
Why does this happen?
Thanks!
