Hi,
I purchased the Galaxy S for my wife, I improted the contacts from her Sim card but unlike in my Nexus S those contacts were not Synced into her gmail account.
I found a solution on google using an SD card but I don't have one for her phone atm. phone is running version 2.2.1.
Any other solutions for this?
Thanks.
hi mate
im not quiet sure if i understood ur query. i understand that u have the contacts in ur wife's phone but they r not synced with google? if this is the problem, below is my suggested solution.
first u need to export ur contacts to a pc (ive done it through kies in my case) then u can upload them to phone's google account which ur using.
hope this was helpful

I've over 300 contacts in my other phone SE P990i, I'm trying to copy them to the X1, is there anyway that i can copy them without using the Outlook? i tried to back-up them and then send the back-up file to the X1 but it always fail,, i tried sending the same file from my P990i and from my laptop,, same result..
Use Bluetooth?
I would try bluetooth a bit laborious but far quicker than manually enterring all your contacts again.
Cant you just save them in your SIM card and then transfer them to your xperia ?

You just can save a name and a phone number on a SIM card, I'm sure he wants adresses, EMail, birthdays and so on copied too.
I copied everything with the storage card because both phones use microsd.
Bluetooth should be possible too.
i did that,, but i dnt see any of my SIM contacts in my X1,, do i have to do sumthing in the sittings to show contacts from the SIM ?

Just open the CONTACTS and then choose MENU and SIM MANAGER. Then you can see everything that lies on the SIM-card

Just sync your P990 with Microsoft Outlook and the sync Outlook with your Xperia.
And, please, leave my private messages for private messages only
I had the same issue. Bought my new X1 a few days ago. Had loads of contacts on my N95 Symbian phone. Bluetooth was laborious and I didn't have access to Outlook.
In the end, I used Google Sync. Worked fantastic.

it does not support Sony P990i how to backup contact from that to x1 using google sync :S or any other software ....
If both phones use Windows Mobile, you can use PIM Backup to backup and the restore your contacts. PIM Backup will also restore your ring tone settings for each contact (not the tone itself). Plus a few other things.
Guys
It may sound like a noob question, because im quite new to samsung and android.
My phone runs on darky 10.1,
since a few days my phone contacts wont show up in kies. The phone shows up, connects but the contact list in kies is empty. I do not have a solution to that, but mainly my problem ever since i got this phone(which is also the first android I use) - Resolved it, the problem was caused by deleting the wssyncmlnps.apk in system/app/ folder as i saw that it helps save the battery. Putting back the file to system/app sorted it, and now it connects and loads up fine. I do not know whether it helps stop the battery drain though, was following some forums.
I sync'd my contacts/calendar to the gmail account i made. It was a blank account which didnt have any contacts nor mail prior to the sync process because I never used it,
So my problem is that - why doesn't my gmail account (on the web) doesnt show any contacts or calendar content which i just sync'd from my phone ???
Thanks a lot in advance !
Strange! Sound like problem with sync software our mistake in your set up ?

That is a very good question let me scratch my bald head and see what suggestions I can come up with! Back in a bit
Donate please @ Nitr8
1st suggestion is to try reflashing darkys, as what you removed and replaced is an apk, it may not be installed properly, or use a market apk installer to make sure it is actually installed, I will keep thinking
Donate please @ Nitr8
Hi,
I am having a very strange problem with my SGS. Before I had a Nexus S and all my contacts are in my google account. I have my SGS sync with the google account apparently with no issues.
BUT when I edit a contact the changes are not saved! I press save and it says the the changes were saved, but when I go again to the contact the old info is there... I have tried to edit the address or to add/remove number in the contacs.
This only happens when editing existing contacts. If I add a new contact is OK or if I delete an existing contact it also works.
Any clue what can be wrong???
Thanks
PS: I have a stock ROM 2.3.6 JWZ
same problem here ....
sometimes my contacts get synced via googlemail - somtimes not ..
Really? How can something so basic give issues... and this is one of the latest official firmwares!!
Does anybody know if in other earlier/later roms work?
Or something better, where can I find the original contact manager from Gingerbread to replace Samsung's garbage? I have rooted and I guess I could get rid of it with root explorer, true?
Nobody else with the same issue?
I really don't want to flash again. And even less if I don't know other stock roms might have the same problem.
Nobody can tell me if they have any problems editing contacts from the google account?
What could I do, copy contacts to phone?
Hi, I have updated to the lasted official firmware for my samsung galaxy GT I9100 and am having the exact same problem as you. Yet it was working fine before update.
Did you find a solution?
Cheers
If u are on ICS,after making changes u need to confirm it at the top of the screen before leaving the contact
Hi Every one
good evening...... This is my first time here and heard a lot about this forum and i have a problem with my HTC incredible S phone where the new contacts are getting saved however when try to retrieve the newly added contacts say after a week it is not there and i have lost a lot of very important number and i cannot find any logical solution with this issue and i recently updated the ios to ICS4 and previously it was gingerbread
please give me a solution to the problem or guide me to the site where the solution is available
thank you in advance
Well that's a weird problem... Try this: Recreate every single contact in one go and export them in a v-card file (that's the way, I backup my contacts - it's easy to backup and restore) after saving the file try a factory reset and import contacts after it. This could help u, but be sure that a factory reset will wipe out all your data on your phone (except SD-card).
It could also be something to do with your settings..
wen you create a a contact you could be saving it to your gmail account & your phone may be displaying the contacts on your phone.
and vice-verse. you could be saving to your phone & set display contacts to gmail account.
i do not think it is possible for you to just loose the contacts

i did check it and all the contacts face book g mail phone sim everything is getting displayed
well if it is synced to google, log in to your gmail account & goto 'contacts'
see if the missing contacts are there.. if they are then there could be some problem with the phone (highly unlikely)
Hi guys! yesterday I installed Cyanogenmod 11 4.4.4Kitkat (2014729) in my GT-I8190 and it works perfectly but i have one problem..
first at all, I'm from Argentina, sorry for my [email protected]#t english
Well, i have a problem whit my contacts provider, contacts manager, contacts app or whatever u call it. The story begins when I did the backup of my contacts, config, networks and messages whit Kies(yup, my bad [NOOB]), once installed CM, kies didnt read my phone(searching in forums I found out that Kies only read phones whit official roms ). Well, I only cares about contacts for now, so looking back to search in forums I could convert my .spb backup archive to a .vcf archive(one for each of my contacts), then I imported them to my phone from the contacts manager(the default in CM) and everything seemed to be fine, but wen I restart my phone and go to the contacts, I dont find them!! There are no any saved contact!!(WTF).
So, here is my solution: replace the default contacts app. I dont want to download other contacts app from the play store and also have the default one. I WANT TO UNINSTALL THE DEFAULT CONTACTS APP AND REPLACE IT WHIT ANOTHER APP DOWNLOADED FROM PLAY STORE OR ANY OTHER SITE. If for do this i need to replace the dialer app to, I dont care.
Can someone help me whit this? Thanks to all

i dont think its possible as all other contacts app such as contact+ and go contacts use the people app for the contact database...why don't you run them side by side..and use only the alternative app as default..i hear contacts+ is a really good option..also supports facebook and google+ sync and best of all its free

Have you checked if show contacts "all contacts" is selected in the options section of your contacts manager?
