Sync Android Phone Contacts

As a Google-developed mobile operating system, Android is designed to primarily work with the Google email service Gmail. Although the phone supports synchronization with email providers beside Gmail, it does not provide native support for synchronizing the contact data on those accounts. The Gmail account contact synchronization service, however, is easy to use and automatically syncs by way of the phone's wireless connection.


Instructions








1. Activate your phone and tap the "Gmail" application icon on your home screen.


2. Tap "Add Account" to register your Gmail account's contact list with your Android phone.


3. Type your Gmail account user name and password into the corresponding text-fields.








4. Tap "Add Account" to sync this account's contacts with your Android's Contacts application. If you add a contact to your Contacts app or in the Gmail app, your Android will automatically sync the new addition to your online Gmail account.
