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 phone. For more information
about syncing existing managed accounts, see
“Accounts and Synchronization”
