Hi all,
Im new with Android and was wondering how to move my contacts from my old BB 9000 to my new Desire S. Ive tried the bluetooth way as the phone asked me to, but only one has transfered. My BB is sinhronized with a Google account-do you guys think that helps?
Many Thanks
I think that if you add that same google account to your phone, it will automatically import your contacts for you.
If not, you could always use your BB to export contacts to SIM and then import them on your Andorid phone.
Good luck!

Howdy,
Does anyone know why you get dual contacts saved to the simcard when using exchange activesync and your simcard to combine contacts?
I am using a jasjam (aka dopod 838) and this is really frustrating because I have to manually edit the simcard one by one to delete the duplicate contacts.
Any ideas? Anyone know a good method of editing sim contacts on the PC to make it fast, rather then on the phone?
Did a search, couldn't find much on this topic.

Greetings KillerBunny,
From my knowledge, the best method for a consumer is to manually edit the contacts. I have heard of telephone stores using devices which automatically transfer contacts, so if you have access to a mobile store, ask for help there.
Hi All. im running a A stock rom on an HTC desire UK standard non branded.
Im having a small but annoying problem when adding a new item to one of my secondary calendars on my desire.
Whenever i create an event in one of my secondary calendars it automatically adds myself as a guest in the google calendar application on my pc.
Ive been reading up on the google help forums and have found this..

It is 2012 and Google still hasn't fixed this issue.
Howdy. Sorry if this is a noob question but...
Today I returned my Xperia X10 and obtained an HTC Inspire 4G.
I made sure to google sync everything on my X10 prior to returning it.
How do I import all the contacts I google syncd back to my new phone?
Just pressing google sync on the phone doesn't appear to work.
Hello. I recently installed a new ROM, coming from the official Aria 2.2 update that had HTC Sense and all, and I'm having a problem... I have always saved new numbers to my SIM card, I guess because when I first got my phone I didn't really trust google with my numbers. Well jokes on me, because I just installed CM7, and it cannot see any of the numbers on the SIM card. I've tried going into contacts and importing from SIM, but it says there are 0 contacts.
Basically I have alot of numbers I cannot replace easily, so what is the best way to get the numbers synced up with a gmail account? Is there an app that does this, or should I try to get ahold of another phone, stick my sim in there, and export them? My family all has iphones, so I'm not sure how that would really work. Anyways thanks for the help in advance.

If that not works (a bit strange) , why don't you try insertig you sim into an iphone and exporting the number to a sd card. later, on your phone , import from sdcard the numbers

Save them on the sim, but that would not save the pictures and detailed contacts. Another option could be the export of the contacts and import them on the other phone if it's an android phone. Or take the outlook way and at least some contract provider give you the option to use their sync.

Press the blue contacts button, then the menu button. Press "More" and choose Import/Export. Then under export to: choose SIM Card.
If you dont want to export them via sim card, you can try to sync it with your google account. Then when you start using your new phone, restore your google account on it, and your contacts should sync as well. You can verify that all the contacts sync'd up correctly by going to contacts.google.com
Honestly, I think syncing with your google account is the most convenient way and the best way not to lose your contacts. But if you really want to go through the hassle of keeping your contacts away from google, you may need your service provider to port your numbers over to your new phone, add the numbers manually, or sims card.
Or backup to SD card. Within that import/export option.
