Synchronizing Contacts

Syncing data from your managed accounts allows you to add and
manage a new or existing contact from your online or remote
accounts to your phone. Prior to syncing, you must first have an
active Google or Microsoft Exchange account with current Contact
entries, and be signed into your account via the phone.
With syncing, any Contacts entries (with phone numbers, email
addresses, pictures, etc.) are updated and synced with your device.
1. From the main Settings page and then navigate to the Accounts
area.
2. Select the email account containing the contacts you wish to
synchronize.
3. Tap
account's synchronization settings screen.
4. To synchronize only Contacts, toggle the active state of the
Sync Contacts field. A green checkmark indicates the feature is
enabled.
Note: The process of updating your Contacts tab can take several
minutes. If after 10-20 minutes, your list has not been updated,
repeat step 2-3.
5. Your Contacts tab then reflects any updated Contact
information.

Corporate accounts via the device.
