menu - settings - accounts - google, make sure you have contacts set to sync.

Check settings in Contacts to ensure those contacts for that account are enabled:

Menu>More>Settings

It should say "All Contacts" at the top when you open the Contacts app. If not, click on the header and select all.

If you have checked Settings>Accounts and selected your Gmail account and ensured Contacts is set to sync, I can't think of anything else...

mine says new contacts and touching the top does nothing

What did you see in the settings I suggested you check?


It says "New Contacts"

When you go to Menu>Display Group in Contacts, what groups are listed?

On that list you should be able to select "All Contacts" and should also see your gmail account listed/selectable.

If that isn't true, then it sounds like your Gmail account is not syncing contacts to the phone for some reason.

Recheck this: Settings>Accounts, select your Gmail account, and if Contacts is selected to sync, de-select it, reboot, and got back in an enable it again.

contacts/google sync

I had the same issue with the verizon contacts not synching with google. what I did to fix the problem was to go to contacts--menu and there a menu where you can export vcard info to the external SD card. Then in the same menu inport the file back, it will pop up where to inport to, choose your gmail account. close the contacts and do a manual sync. Your contacts will be in google under my contacts. At least it worked for me.
