Ive messed up big style with the Mrs new phone. Basically I was trying to make my mind up if I should create her a google account or just use mine as she already has a outlook.com email account which would be her primary account, so whilst I was deciding on that, I moved all her contacts on her old 6300 to her SIM and then imported them from the SIM onto her new nexus 4. I had to do this is blocks as she had more contacts than the SIM can fit.
Yesterday, I decided to link her phone to my google account. I then realised that this was actually gonna be a pain because she wouldnt actually be able to create contacts on her outlook account via the person app and instead would end up creating them in to my account (yes, im stupid). So I removed my account from the phone and set her up a new account.
At this stage, I then noticed that all her locally stored contacts that I had imported from the SIM had then disappeared.
Hoping that they were still there I removed her new google account thinking that this would then display the "local phone" storage contacts, but alas it didn't.
Any ideas? I have tried downloading "Go Contact Ex" from the store thinking that it would allow me to browse the local contact store to access them, but it didn't work.
My HTC One S has the ability to show locally stored contacts via the person app. Any idea on how to do the same from the Nexus 4?
