How to stop skype contact sync with phone contacts

1. I have transferred contacts to my new Z from old nokia phone using an app via bluetooth. They got stored in gmail account instead of local phone memory. How to transfer them from gmail account to phone memory ?

2. I have installed skype and skype contacts also got mixed up with my general contacts. So using filter option i have unchecked Skype contacts to hide them..... but it also started hiding the contacts that matching with skype. How to stop skype contacts getting syc with general contact list ?

To sync Gmail contacts, simply create the Gmail account on the handset and perform a sync.

Menu > Settings > Accounts > Add Account > Google > Existing > use your current details.

Once this has been done, simply do the following,

Menu > Settings > Accounts > Google >Tap email account name > Tap Sync Contacts.

In regards to Skype contacts, the only way to remove these is to remove the Skype application and the reinstall, when it comes to setting up the Skype application do not select sync contacts.

I hope this helps.

I dont know whether you really don't understand what i wrote or give simply whatever information you got in your knowledge base!

The procedure what you given is irrelevant to my problem. I clearly told that google account synchronised local contacts to it. I want them back to my local contacts list.

But again you are guiding me to sync them to google account. Your suggestion truly screwd up my contact list with all the gmail contacts synchronised into phone memory.
