what ? plz explain in details.
There's no sync app.
It's in the settings - accounts and sync(i'm not sure, my phone is on russian)
There if you dont have any accounts tap on new account there you can register a new google account,or use existing.
Then just activate sync and here you go.
You can check it via http://www.google.com/contacts.
thanx actually I'd forgotten it, hehehe, +1

Have you looked in settings/accounts and sync under manage accounts ther should be gmail sync. select that and ther should be 3 tabs for contacts, mail and calendar. make sure all are selected. toggling any off then on will do an immedite sync.
Don't know about exchange as I don't use it. does that show as well?
I have under manage accounts - pc sync which works, google which works and twitter which does not work on contacts. comes up with a sync error.
have you tried to compose email using exchange activesync... there is no option to select GAL..... man dell sucks
so, after a lot of google'ing, it seems that android 2.1, without carrier modification to allow exchange cal sync, is missing the option.
exchange cal sync is only available in 2.2
all the more reason why I desperately need 2.2

If you're just looking to sync them to have their contact information in your phone then I do have a solution for that. Its a process, but once its done, its done (but is reversible).
You'll need a Yahoo email account to do this. Log into your Yahoo email account, go to your contacts page, and choose to Import. Select Facebook. This will import your facebook contacts to your Yahoo account. Ok, now from the contacts page in Yahoo, you want to select export. Create a yahoo CSV file and save it to your computer. Now log onto your Google account and go to the Dashboard and then to Contacts. Now import the CSV file you made for Yahoo and you'll have all your facebook contacts now in your gmail account which will then sync to your phone. Of course you'll have to add any new facebook contact you aquire after the process manually (of just repeat the process).
Its not the most automated solution, but it is a solution. Of course you wont be able to see updates and what not with this solution, but it will get your facebook contacts information into your phone.
^^^ this is some very useful info here. Didn't know how to do this until this step by step instructions. Thanks so much.

Hello! (excuse my english)
I have a problem in my Defy (2.2) with the synchronization of contacts and calendar with Google. When I synchronize my contacts, the contacts that I deleted came back and the new ones disappear. In the calendar the same thing happens. I looked around a lot and found no solution. Can anyone help me?
Do u use google calendar sync and google contacts sync for outlook? Or any other sync tool for comp and account?
Do u use msoutlook or website for google account?

Hi, Thanks for helping!
I don't use outlook for anything, not even in my computer. I use website for google account always, and I dont have any other sync tool for google.
It's like, it transfer the "old" data from the website (calendar and contacts) to my device, instead updating all.
So in settings>accounts and synchronization u have checked 'Data in background' and when u checkmark 'autosync' and press your google account u have checked 'contacts' and 'calendar'? (after checking u can uncheck 'autosync')

Well, my phone have only the option "accounts" (not accounts and synchronization); I open "accounts", select my google account and then I have a list: sync contacts, sync gmail, sync calendar. If I want to sync I have to press one by one.
In settings>Data manager>data delivery, I have always checked "background data", if thats what you talking about.
Note: My android is 2.2.1 and I have not enabled motoblur, if that helps.
Well, no more ideas. I had motoblur just for a moment (mean few hours), then switched to custom ROM without motoblur.
The problem is strange but maybe u can try switching motoblur on, as it is to do with accounts sync. Give it a try.

Go to settings > accounts> activate google account using gmail, after that go to sync settings and tick Sync contacts and
other items of your choice.

i have to move all my contact from the sim to the device ,haven't I?
Yes do that first time. Then evertime you activate your Gmail account automatically synchronize your mails and contacts especially if you are switching from one phone to another. Even on new sim card as long as you can activate your Google account.
