How to turn off Google Contacts sync on Android
Android phones, by default, use their users' Gmail account to sync all Google services directly to the device. This can mess up your contacts schedule by adding duplicate or out-of-date information. The problem tends to be greater for those who prefer to use Facebook contacts or a Microsoft account.
To organize all this data, you can choose to turn off Gmail contact synchronization on your smartphone, and determine which service your records will be imported from. See the following tutorial for a step-by-step guide on how to do this on your phone.
