[Bug 1421889] Re: Ubuntu Touch 15.05 (r1) - Google Contacts not synchronizing

 

Synchronizing contacts is the only reason I still use my old Nokia
phones. First of all Google doesn't sync all the data from the files
that Windows or Nokia programs spit out. Second (and that's the reason
why I join this bug report): if the synchronization with Google succeed,
my Aquaris 4.5 doesn't get all the information from Google! I could
understand the details as address, fax etc. but in my contacts I get
empty names without a stupid, simple phone number which makes my ubuntu
device useless. My Nokias have something like 500 complicated contants
which I'm not gonna copy by hand half a Year. This bug is critical for
me.
