Help I need to link multiple phone & Gmail contacts...

Hi,

I have added all my old phone contacts, and also got all my gmail contacts onto my HTC desire. Obviously there are lots that need linking. I have read that the notification area should now show an icon indicating that there are 'matched contacts suggestions' but it does not. I can go through individual contacts and link them, but I need to do them all in one go...

I have tried syncing my gmail account but still nothing.

I dont care about facebbook right now. I have searched on the firum but pretty much every post is about facebook.

Ideally i just want all my contacts merged on the gmail account or for 'people' to show a merged list.

Can anyone help me figure out why the notification icon wont show me there are matched contacts suggestions so i can see a list of all the suggestions?

Thanks!
 
Some are the same and some are virtually the same...

The phone can see there are potential links for the contacts as when i view them individually the link icon is there. I just need to be able to see all suggested links in one view, or autolink them - which I have read is possible, as there are hundreds to scroll through
 
Bump...

is it a false claim that the desire is able to show that there are 'matched contacts suggestions' and list all suggestions so you can handle them all with ease? Or as I am seeing this is not the case and you have to go through every single contact individually?
