I accidently force stopped the account and sync setting (Xperia play) and now my sim and all contacts has been wiped.
Can you restart thi if it has been stopped and can I get my contacts back????
Any help greatly appreciated
Again restart the sync and it should work fine
If you accidentally deleted them then just go to your Gmail ID and go to contacts > click on more > restore > 1 week/day etc
This may sound stupid but how do I restart the sync???
Settings > accounts and sync > turn on
None of that worked. All contacts still gone 
That Account and sync setting is still stopped too!
First go to gmail and check if your contacts are still there
If yes then restart your phone and then switch on wifi. Make sure Auto sync is on
Go to settings > account and sync > tap on your Gmail > Sync contacts > unmark it and then mark it ( Or if it's showhing tap to sync now then do it )
Make sure you are connected to wifi and wait for somtime. Let the contacts sync
Contacts is empty on g mail
Then you deleted it
Now follow the restore method
If you accidentally deleted them then just go to your Gmail ID and go to contacts > click on more > restore > 1 week/day etc
After restoring follow the method i just wrote above
Also do this
Contacts apps > press menu button > Filter > Mark all sub categories in phone contacts and Gmail contacts
There's nothing in the contacts in gmail when I restore them from a week ago.
Under the account and sync settings the data is at 0 and so is the cache. Is there a way to get this restarted???
