Its been a very unfortunate event for me. I'm currently using a photon bought few months ago. For some reasons, i had to do a factory reset to my handset. So i decided to backup contacts, sms & calls logs. Some how this time i decided to not to export contacts to my SD card and sync it to my gmail id through the contact sync options in the account. I did the sync and it was shown the process was on by a small syncing icon on the right side. Somehow when i tried syncing the account and contacts, the contacts which were added recently did not show up. I tried to crosscheck it with my gmail account but to my surprise the recent contacts did not show up even there. Anybody else has ever faced similar issues?
It not a good feeling when you loose contacts like this. Can anyone think of any way to get it back or perhaps any other way google contacts are synced with any other account (like earlier Facebook app used to sync all the contacts but they have stopped it due to privacy concerns).
