Need a clean resync of android phone contacts from gmail
I'm having struggles with getting getting my contacts (up in Google) to resync correctly with my Galaxy phone. It's an S20 so the Android is relatively current.
What I'd like to do is just wipe all the contact info on the phone and resync from Google. I don't want wiping out my phone to erase anything on Google though. It's just my phone I want to clean up.
How can I do this?
