Synchronization of contacts from cell phone => Nextcloud does not work

ℹ️ Support
1

Hello, my dears,

i have a question? My contacts in Nextcloud are only synchronized to my Android phone via DAVx 5 when I create new contacts in Nextcloud.
If I create a contact on my cell phone, it will not be synchronized in Nextcloud. Synchronization only works in one direction.
From Nextcloud => Mobile
Is there a solution?
Synchronization from cell phone = > Nextcloud works?

Or for longer, use three backticks above and below the code snippet:

Which information/protocols are important for error analysis?
I need your support here?

Nextcloud version (eg, 20.0.5): Nextcloud Hub 3 (25.0.6)
Operating system and version (eg, Ubuntu 20.04): Debian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye)
Apache or nginx version (eg, Apache 2.4.25): nginx 1.18.0-6.1+deb11u3
PHP version (eg, 7.4): 7.4.33

Did you select the correct account when you created the contact?

For example, if your Google account is set as the default in the Contacts app and you don’t change the account when you add a new contact, the new contact will end up in your Google account instead of Nextcloud.

That’s exactly what happens. Contact is created in Google Contact. Not in Nextcloud. How do I make sure that my new contact is created in Nextcloud in the Contacts app on my phone?

It can be so easy.
Select the DAVx account with the name in the contact app on your cell phone. Afterwards, when you create a new contact after synchronization, the contact will be displayed in Nextcloud.
