Contacts

The Contacts application lets you store and manage contacts from a variety of sources,
including contacts you enter and save directly in your phone as well as contacts synchronized
with your Google account, your PC, compatible email programs (including Exchange Server),
and your Facebook friends.

Get Started with Contacts

Before using Contacts, it's best to learn a few basics.
Your phone automatically sorts the Contacts entries alphabetically. You can create a Google
contact, a phone contact, or a Corporate (Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync) contact.
● Phone contacts are stored locally on the phone.
Note: If the phone is ever reset to its factory default parameters, locally stored contacts (phone
contacts) can be lost.
● Google contacts are shared with your existing Google account and can also be imported
to your phone after you have created a Google Mail account.
● Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync (also known as Work or Outlook) contacts are those
contacts that are intended to be shared with either an Exchange Server or from within
