Backup Assistant Plus ate contacts-- anybody else?

[Wildman · Accepted solution]

To disable BA+ goto Settings / Application Manager / All / Backup Assistant Plus / Clear Data and restart, this should disable the sync option from device...  This wont delete any data stored on BA+ site but will remove data required to connect to sync server.

BA ate my contacts also.  Now they are in my backup assistant, however, ther're none on my cell phone.

Any suggestions?

Perhaps Backup Assistant got a little hungry, RainGirlToday. Let's see what we can do to get those contacts back on your phone. Have you tried re-syncing BA with your device. If not, give it a try:

1. Settings

2. Backup Assistant Plus

3. Select Backup Assistant Contacts

4. Enter your PIN and Sync.

Let me know if this helps. Have a great day.

I gave up on BA a long time ago as it never returned or stored anything correctly. It would always change the House line and mobile lines, change phone numbers between people, lose contact addresses.

I shut it off and never set it up on my newer phones. I use the Phones default Google to store all my contacts. All you need to do is tell your phone to save them that way.  Saving them in Google, when I add one on my phone, it immediately syncs to Google. If I add it to Google it immediately syncs to my phone. Best of all it is ACCURATE and barely uses any data.
