Contacts List
Creating a Contact
The default storage location for
saving phone numbers to your
Contacts List is your phone’s
built-in memory.
If existing Google and Corporate
email accounts have been
synchronized to your phone,
these will be made available to
your device during the creation
of new entries. These new
Contacts entries can be
assigned or saved to synced
accounts such as Phone, SIM,
Google, or Corporate.
Your phone automatically sorts
the Contacts entries alphabetically. You can create either a
Phone
,
SIM
,
T-Mobile Contacts Backup
,
, or
Microsoft
Exchange ActiveSync
contact.
Note:
Before you can save a contact to the Phone, Contact settings must be
set to

to

Important!:
The Google and Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync account types
are only visible after creating an email account of those types on
your phone.
