    When you set up your gmail account, before completing set up on the phone its askes you if you want to sync your phone with your gmail account. it is already checked , you have to check it off if you dont want to do it. It is typically best to sync your phone because if there ever is atime where you phone gets wiped or you have to get a new phone and they cant pull all your contacts off,, all you have to so is set up your gmail account on your new phone , sync your phone and,,,bam all your cantacts are back on your phone.

    When you set it up you have to look at the screens and read everything. What you have to do now is, (if you don't want this)
    1) Go into the Google mail account and find the synced contacts and delete them.
    2) Delete the mail account off the phone
    3) Set the account back up on the phone
    4) Read carefully after you add the mail address and password I believe the next screen will ask if you want to sync the phone to your account. Look to the bottom left of the screen and you will see the check box there. Uncheck that box and it will NOT sync. It comes pre checked.
    And your welcome

    It shouldn't take no longer than 5 minutes. I did the same thing and I redid both mine and my wifes phone in less than 5 minutes.
