how can i import contacts from google contact to my android phone?
Not sure what you mean... do you have a phone that doesn't say "with Google" on the back? If you have a standard G1, it should automatically sync your Google contacts to your phone Contacts/Dialer app.
but it doesn't sync nothing in automatic
Menu -> Settings -> Data Synchronization
it doesn't do nothing
uncheck your contacts and check the box again, you should then see the sync symbol
well i understand..it's brand tim and tim doesn't allow sync -.-
i'm very....................

Did you use another program to backup your contacts and restore them? My Backup Pro is known to break contact syncing if you use it to restore your contacts.
If you still have contacts in your GMail account and none on your phone, try a wipe. Once you've logged back into your account on your mobile and you have WiFi, enable that to speed up the synching. Should work fine.
You can on GMail export your contacts too however I've not tried it myself, most likely it would be a csv file.
How in the hell do I get my phone contacts to sync to Google? I tried settings_accounts_Google sync but it only pulls my gmail contacts to my phone. I want to put my phone contacts to gmail. Backup assistant works fine, but some of the custom roms out don't use it. I can't find any info on this. HTC told me when I create contacts and choose Google instead of phone that they will sync. What about the 80 or so that backup assistant did upon activating my phone? And also, if I save future contacts as Google contacts and not phone contacts, does backup assist still back these up too?
In phone book hit menu and export contacts to sd card. This will give you a file that can be used to import your contacts on gmail.com
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
or just go to backup asst online.. vzw.com/backupassistant, and then export your contacts to a .csv file..which you can then import into google..doesnt take long.
In order to get the ones already saved in your phone to sync to google I think you're going to have to go with one of the options they said since I dont think there is a way to change them from phone contact to google contact.
However, when you add new contacts there is a drop down toward the top that you can change from phone to google so that after you save them it will sync automatically.
So if I import them to Google, it will sync. I get that. Now if I add new contacts as Google contacts does backup assist still back them up also?
I backed up my phone using MyBackup Pro and wehn i tried to restore everything, it saved my contacts as Google contacts.
Now im wondering how to save it as Phone contacts, becuase according to HTC Sync, i have 0 contacts.
Ive tried a few apps, but all they do is convert Phone to Google and not the other way around. Any ideas?
Alright well i downloaded an app called Export contacts, which exported my google contacts as a .csv
I tried to import ot outlook and it wouldnt do it, so i had to import to Gmail, then export again and then import to Outlook.
Man, i really need to go through and merge both my phone and my Gmail contacts
well im not having much luck with this new phone.lol. for some reason i cant get any contacts to appear... i can import them to the phone, they even sync with my google account and i can see them on my computer. but if i click on contacts on the phone theres nothing there. ive tried importing them as a csv, vcard and using sprite migrate.. they say theyve imported but nothing shows. wierd thing is my messages come up with the correct names just nothing in the contacts app.
well for anyone who gets a similar problem i finally fixed it by logging into my google account on a pc. moved the contacts into "my contacts" then wiped my phone back to standard, when i signed into my google account it then synced the contacts to my phone..
HI
I am looking for a way to restore my contacts whick i have on outlook to my hero.....
suprisingly htc sync is not working after a rom upgrade......pls help guys
its a huge task to add contacts manually.......
HTC sync is a feature of Sense Roms ,. Unfortunately you cant have that on CM 6 based roms as they lack sense.
my recommendation for a Quick fix for you may be to flash a sense rom and sync your contacts and then change your contacts to google contacts as opposed to phone or sim contacts and then back them up on your google account.

it could be because there is a new version of htc sync on the web page for 2.1 eclair.. if you don't have it already that could be your problem

Log in to your Gmail account (the one that you used originally on your phone) on your PC and go to Contacts. In the "More Actions" menu there is an option to Import contacts. Export your contacts from Outlook to a .CSV file, then import them into your Gmail account. Once they are there, they should synchronise with your phone correctly, and from then on, if you wipe your phone, when you sign back in with your google account on the new ROM, the contacts will automatically transfer again.

Happy to help The only issue there is that you need to keep the gmail contacts up to date as well as your Outlook contacts, but it does work well
Hey what I figured out recently when I got my hero is more of a work around than an official way to do this. What I do is I select all the contacts in my outlook contacts folder, then I right click and say send as a business card. What this does is create an e-mail with all your contacts listed as business card .vcf files. All these files will appear in the new mail dialog under attachments. I right click on that particular dialog and select all - it then offers you the option to cut/copy all these vcfs - once you do that then you can just paste them in whichever folder you wish. Once they are all there just transfer them to a folder on your SD card and use the import feature thats in the contacts application. You can import from SD card and it will locate and list all those vcfs of the SD card. Thats about the best and easiest way I've found of doing this. However when I change the contact on the phone I will try obviously have to find some reverse method to get it back into outlook sychro'd Only got my hero two days ago so will figure something out soon hopefully
