Help One way syncing for gmail ?

[swayzak]

Hi

I've always been a bit confused by concept of sync'ing - how does one avoid a favoured Contacts list (e.g. phone) being replaced by the other sync'ed entries (gmail account).

Is there an easy way to push edited Contacts , Calenders etc. in one direction only ?

e.g if I use the phone as "master" Contacts, how do I get this replicated in my google account ?

I can't see an option in the phone to only sync in one direction.

thanks

Thanks - but that doesn't appear to mention how to sync one way ?

I tend to edit Contacts in my S2, and would like to push these changes to Google Contacts (not have any differences in Google Contacts pushed down to phone at the same time).

Is this possible ?

I've been looking for a way to do this as well. Whenever I try to sync my Google contacts, it will totally mess up my primary phone ones -- duplicate names, some names over-written with just the last name (even those both first and last are visible in the detail view). Like you, I want to have my phone (HTC Vivid) be the master list and push anything new to Gmail.

Hopefully we can get an answer soon. I'm tired of having to re-create anew from my Outlook contacts.
