its easy to save contacts in vcf form. Just go to contacts app and press the mennu button and opt for export the contacts to sd card. the saved contacts will be in .VCF format. if you sync the contacts then the contacts lists in your google acc will also be added to your contact list. that can cause the double entry of the contacts. To resetore the vcf format choose "import contacts from sd card" option. select the file ur done.

OMG it has saved all the contacts in the entire google system ... more and more times ...

yup that may be the problem of syncing. Ok if you have more than one number in one name say for ex "John" has 4 numbers under his belt, one home other office etc, the vcf format will see it as 4different contacts. But thats not an issue, when u import the contact all 4 numbers will be saved in one name only say 'in john's name'. hope i AM CLEAR ENOUGH.

sync off, internet off on the phone.

1) go to https://www.google.com/contacts/ and if you will delete all contacts of the android device.

2)open the contact list -> options button - > visualizzation option -> activate everything. so you can see what you have, delete all the doble, -> then save to SD, delete the rest, and then restore the SD contacts. (i have restored from the sim card)

3) turn on wifi and sync, the contact sync tells you that there are many contact delete, and it ask you if you will delete them.

i have sayd yes, and now i have everything ok.

Neko, do you think you could add MD5 checksums to your ROM links? I'd feel safer checking the files before flashing them... Or is this something very uncommon for ROMs?
