This isn't related to lollipop as it was happening before the update but sometimes I'd add a contact, it would "check contacts" and would appear fine, but then the next time I go to contact I notice the contact I saved is no longer there. I've thousands of contacts as I use my phone for business and use a customer number sequence so it's easy to notice when the previous contact hasn't saved properly and it's happened a few times on me now
Hasn't yet happened with lollipop but I did notice when lollipop loaded, the last contact I had saved on KitKat was no longer there. 0 -

The way lollipop manages silent mode is a real pain in the arse too.
Yeah, one of my handiest apps that I used, more often than I even noticed, was Widgetsoid which put a little toggle widget on my home screen, one of the toggles was a quick switcher between Sound+Vib/Vib/Silent, now when I click it it goes Sound+Vib/Vib/Priority and doesn't go to silent on another push Not sure if it's best waiting a widgetsoid update (probably won't come if lollipop has been out 6 months already) or just disable priority altogether and make priority my silent mode.. 0 -

I know you have probably already done this, but thought i would suggest it anyway again on the off chance you have not done it....This isn't related to lollipop as it was happening before the update but sometimes I'd add a contact, it would "check contacts" and would appear fine, but then the next time I go to contact I notice the contact I saved is no longer there.

Check whether your contacts are saved:-
-on sim card
-
-on storage (phone)
-
-on google servers
Open the contacts/people app, bottom right 3-dot menu, select export the contacts to storage - they should sync to google servers automatically unless this option is disabled. Then in Settings/options in Contacts, change it to show contacts from Google as opposed to sim or storage.0 -

Is Exchange Active Sync what manages the syncing between any updates and Google Calendar/contacts etc? I rely on this syncing very much and don't like the idea of having to turn it off
No. That's your normal google account that keeps those in sync. The Exchange Active Sync is if your work email and calendar is run off exchange and you're syncing that to your phone. I have my work calendar and email syncing to my phone and it's that EAS that can get caught in the loop of constantly syncing.0 -

I think you can achieve what you want by swiping down and swiping down again, it will bring down another menu, is that what you're after?laraghrider wrote: »No. That's your normal google account that keeps those in sync.

That's a relief to know, but hope it's sorted soon for your sake
