Finally I can't be sure changed contacts on phone won't be in conflict with cloud ones. I will go through this pain only if it's the last chance I have honestly... | |

As I think that contacts stored locally are in Android storage and have no link with Google accounts and contacts in the accounts will get affevted after removal of that account. | |

| Apr 23, 2018 at 10:35 | comment | added | Pratham Khurana | I dont think so, only those contact that are saved in Gmail will be lost, not the local one's | |
| Apr 23, 2018 at 10:33 | comment | added | Marco | Sure, but all the contacts I've added and/or edited on my phone (even if they are part of the gmail account on the phone) will be lost in that case. This is the last attempt I'm going through... | |
