I synced google email account to device contacts phone and then get all contacts phone but still can not see. Is there any way to get it ? Thank you.

I think you need to go though the Google people api

The People API lets you list and manage the authenticated user's Contacts and retrieve profile information for authenticated users and their contacts.

The Gmail api just contains emails.
