Steps to remove duplicate contacts

Duplicate Blackberry Contacts

I had an issue come up yesterday where I needed to reconnect a user’s Blackberry to our BES server. Upon reconnecting, the users contact list was duplicated because I did not clear the users device before reconnecting (nobody’s fault but my own). To clear this issue up I took these simple steps:

  1. On the Blackberry, open the contacts and go to your options. (Menu -> Options)
  2. Simply type: rset
  3. The device will prompt you to delete the local list and re-populate from the server, choose yes. (Probably a good idea to make a backup of the contacts on the server)


After a few minutes the device downloaded the contacts again and the duplicates were gone!
