Default [Q] Tmobile contact backup question

I have the tmobile contact backup turned off & set to not sync. Every time I look at my phone though it is shown in the notification bar as "Checking Status". Does this happen to anyone else? I don't want this damn program running at all!

Mine doesn't seem to be running. i went into manage apps, cleared the data and turned off sync. I still check it every now and again to make sure it's not syncing behind my back. I don't trust it because for the first few days it seemed undeterred when I'd tried to stop it.

Also I would advise you to delete your tmobile contacts form your phone, and just store and sue the google contacts, so that you can be sure if the Tmobile contacts syn has reenabled itself after you disabled it.

I can't wait for Root so we can get rid of this stuff!

I don't want to sync my contacts with google simple because it'll add any email address that you email. I use Outlook to handle them. I did clear the contact backup data & haven't seen anything happen since then

For some reason when I got the phone it added all my contacts about 5 times each... I had to delete everything from the phone itself, then resync with tmobile back up because of all the crazy linking of phone numbers. I don't even store contacts on my phone anymore I purely use the tmobile backup list and facebook contacts.
