Hey Gang !

Why does my Galaxy S duplicate my contacts ?

I have as many as 30 copies of the same contact this is so annoying - can anyone help ?
 
Hello and welcome to Android Forums! :)

Mike, if you have your contacts saved in multiple places, like both as phone and Google contacts, or you sync facebook contacts which duplicate some other contacts they will show as duplicates until you join them.
 
Welcome to AF, glad you found us, hope you enjoy the site,

No I don't have multiple locations just in contacts, something I am hitting is multiplying them everyday ! I can delete down to one copy of a specific contact next day there are 10 of that one !

Do you sync your contacts to gmail?
 
That might be the problem. If you only have contacts saved on the phone or (worse) the sim card, the phone keeps importing them into the contact list.
