Hey there,
After a year of using Windows Phone, I've finally decided to cleanup my contact list of all the Google contacts (because the contact pics are just ****ty thumbnails that stretch).
Steps taken:
1) Desync from Google / Facebook
2) Import all contacts from Google to Outlook.com's contacts (aka People)
Now when I do this, it lists all of my contacts once but are in fact linked to themselves from Hotmail. So when I try to set a contact photo, it asks me which hotmail link I want to set it to.
Now if I delete all my contacts from Outlook, they're still on my phone listed as a hotmail contact, but I have no access to them via outlook.com if I want to edit them.
BUT if I manually create a contact on my phone, it'll appear on Outlook (but the picture won't show).
Two questions...How do I sync my contacts from Outlook without them linking, and is it possible to have a picture set for my contact on my Lumia 1020 and for it to show on Outlook as well?
