About online accounts

Your phone can sync with various online social networking and email accounts.
These are some of the types of information your phone can sync with your online
accounts:
§ Gmail, Exchange ActiveSync, and other POP3/IMAP email.
§ Google and Exchange ActiveSync contacts, as well as your friends' contact
information in Facebook and their Twitter profiles.
§ Calendar events from your Google Account(s), from Exchange ActiveSync, and
from your Facebook account.
§ Status updates and links shared by your friends and yourself on social networks
such as Facebook and Twitter.
§ Flickr and Facebook photo uploads.
You can set up your Exchange ActiveSync and POP3/IMAP email accounts on your
phone either in the Mail app or the Accounts & sync settings.

Synchronizing with a Google Account

Signing in to your Google Account lets you sync Gmail and your Google contacts and
calendars between your phone and the Web. You also need to sign in to a Google
Account to use Google apps such as Google Talk and Android Market.
If you skipped signing in to a Google Account when you first set up your phone,
you may encounter problems when using some Google apps. If these problems
persist, you may need to factory reset your phone and enter your Google Account
details when you set up the phone again.
Adding more Google Accounts
You can add more than one Google Account on your phone. However, subsequent
Google Accounts can only sync contacts, emails, and calendar events. Other Google
services use the first Google Account you added.
1. From the Home screen, press
2. Tap Add account > Google.
3. Follow the onscreen instructions to sign in to an account or create a new
account.
, and then tap Settings > Accounts & sync.
