Nokia Lumia :: How To Get Contacts From GMail To 800
Nov 23, 2011
I'm having issues in getting my contacts from my GMail account to my new Lumia 800. I find lots of references telling me to go to 'm.google.com/sync' on my phone but this just ends up in a loop (it redirects me to a page which says to visit [URL]
I also have the contacts in vcf format but again, can't find anything relating to importing these to the Lumia.
It's a great phone so far, but ultimately pretty useless if I can't get any contacts in there!

So despite my last thread where I was worried about missing some features I picked up the Icon. So far, I'm enjoying it a lot, aside from the fact I can't get my gmail contacts to sync. I've been googling and searching this forum for an answer and it appears I'm doing everything right, they just don't sync. I've deleted and re-added the account, with a restart in the middle.. nothing. I've changed the cardDAV server to m.google.com and Google and nothing. Any way besides a hard reset? It's pretty frustrating not having most of my contacts.

I'm giving serious consideration to moving to WP and the Icon from Android and a Galaxy S3. I'm not overly concerned about the so-called app gap but I'm curious to hear stories from others who have made this move and how you may have handled moving all of your google contacts and calendar appointments to a Microsoft account. Can I just add the google/gmail account and have the contacts move over automatically?

On my 920 when composing an email there was always an option at bottom to search server for the address on a gmail account, it's missing on the 1020.

I'm unable to properly set up either of my Gmail accounts. My Yahoo and other Pop account are fine, but with Gmail the password changes to a longer set of characters, and only one/no emails load/s.I've tried deleting the accounts and setting them up again, to no avail.

I have a lumia 800. I set up my gmail account on the phone, but none of my mails seem to be coming through. What would people recommend as the best way to try and get my gmail to come through properly? Is it likely to just be the server settings that need a tweak?

I've got a Lumia 800 that wont connect to Gmail. I get the following message:"m.google.com is currently unavailable. Try again later." and the error code 85010017.
I've tried 2 SIMs and a couple of different wifi networks, but all give this error. This happens both when using the windows phone wizard for Gmail, or by trying to set it up as an outlook exchange server. I can connect to Gmail using it's POP servers, but that sucks as I would like to have push email and have my Google contacts and calendars synced!

I have my gmail account set up on my phone that updates every 30 mins, however every time it checks and I have an unread message it gives me a sound notification. This would be all good except I receive a daily email around 1.30am which disturbs me sometimes. how I can change this, I've tried everything I can think of? I have a Nokia Lumia 800.

Cant understand why the backup to PC of vital Lumia phone information such as contacts, calendar and messges can not be easily and quickly achieved as with the Nokia suite and N8. I believe it is synced automatically to Sky-drive but I cannot find evidence of this. I would like to have control of this data for easy retrieval and stored on my PC. Windows phone software on my PC is sub standard in comparison with Nokia Suite. It is clunky, contacts cannot be backed up, photos have no picture reference when transferred and the overall Windows Phone software on my PC is second rate in contrast to the Windows Phone 8 phone experience. Can anyone enlighten me on how I can easily copy my contacts to PC. No problem getting contacts into the phone. Just unclear on how to get a copy of them out.

Love the phone - just got a really irritating problem. I've synced my phone with my gmail account - the My Contacts list has my key contact email addresses. Then I have multiple groups within gmail account relating to work emails etc, nearly 500 odd.
On the phone, when I click my 'Contacts' button, initially it showed all my phone number contacts, as well all google email contacts mixed with them. I corrected this by going to 'display options' to select 'display only contacts with phone numbers', so that I didn't have to trawl through random email addresses mixed with my proper phone contacts. Great, sorted.
But, when I go to compose a text message - if it is to one or two specific contacts it is fine...I just type their name and it comes up. If I want to scroll through all my phone contacts to send the same message to multiple contacts, big problem - I press that envelope button in the top right corner next to 'enter recipient', and it takes me to the Contacts list, but here it still shows ALL 600 odd contacts with phone contacts still mixed with google email contacts, which is impossible to scroll through and select multiple people to send a text message to....Does anyone know how to sort this out?!??!

My apologies if this is discussed somewhere else, I looked, couldnt find it. So does anybody know of an easy way to sync my contacts FROM my blackberry TO my gmail contacts? I have google sync on my phone, but that only messed up my contacts by dumping a bunch of duplicates into my BB contacts and it doesnt seem to reverse sync. I have since deleted my gmail contacts so I dont suffer this fate again, but cannot for the life of me figure out how to reverse sync from BB to gmail.

I have my contacts synced to my phone via gmail. I would like to import ALL of my facebook contacts into my gmail/iPhone contacts. That way I would have other phone numbers available without having to load facebook app to find certain people.

Is there a way to have a synchronization of the gmail contacts with the contacts in my Nokia C3-00 phone?I used to have android phones.If not, is there an other way to have the synchronization of the contacts with a server (ovi)?I do not want to restart to have to connect the phone to the PC and transfer the contacts as we used to do years ago..
In the manual it is wirtten:"Select Menu > Settings > Sync and backup. [..] Sync with server — Synchronise or copy selected data between your device and a PC or network server (network service)."But how to set the settings? Nothing more in this poor documentation!

Currently using a Samsung S5. A new Gmail account was set up for this phone in order to sync the contacts to this new Gmail account. Previously it was synced to another Gmail account. Even though the phone said all has been synced (to the new Gmail), nothing appeared when I login to the new Gmail account contacts.

I just bought an iPhone 5c and the dealer manually transferred all of my (gmail) contacts from my Samsung Galaxy. Now the contacts on my iPhone are no longer synced with my gmail account. If I make changes to a contact on my iPhone, that change does not show up on my laptop when I am logged into my gmail account.Â
Can I fix this by turning "on" the "Contacts" button under Settings > mail, contacts, calendars > Gmail > contacts > on?Â
When I attempt this it asks me what I want to do with the existing contacts on my phone. What do I want to do here? If I say leave the contacts on my phone will the contacts merge or will I end up with duplicates?

How to transfer contacts from Nokia N95 to Lumia 800
I tried the appealing Bluetooth option, but unfortunately it didn't work. The pairing of the devices seemed to go OK.But after starting "contacts transfer" with some dots running over the screen of Lumia for a few second, I got "unable to complete the connection etc.".So apparently N95 is not supported or something.

I have around 450 contacts in my address book (names, address, phone nos) on N9 and around 400 on Windows Lives account (combination of Gmail, Facebook and LinkedIn) on my Lumia 800.So, I tried using the Contacts Transfer app to move the contacts from N9 to Lumia via Bluetooth. What happened was that it transferred around 60-70 contacts and then failed.I tried repeating it several times, each time having to pair with the N9 again on Bluetooth and each time failing the transfer after moving around 60-70 or so contacts.I then decided to give up and look into PeopleHub and under the contacts, I found hundreds of entries labelled <Unnamed>, with empty contents in them.Now, how can I get rid of them and why failing to complete the transfer resulted in these blank entries being generated?I also logged into my Windows Live account and indeed, it is saying I have over 900 contacts but these <Unnamed> contacts are not listed anywhere in the ALL, 123, A, B, C, D, E, etc. groups. So, I'm unable to bulk delete them on the web.

ok so i just got a nokia lumia 610, but everytime i try to add a new contact, i add a name and a phone number and as soon as i try to save it, it pairs it up with either facebook or hotmail (by itself), and then it says i cant it as i have choosen not to see contacts from facebook/hotmail, i would happily have my facebook contacts showing but the last thing i want is 300+ people on my phones contacts that i will never phone, or text, also if i try to show contacts from facebook, and then delete the 1's i don't want to see, it doesnt let me press delete so is there a way to connect only some contacts to facebook, so you only see the 1's your going to use and have the number of, or is there a way to delete the contacts you dont want to see from the peoples/contacts? if i cant sort this out i wont be able to use this phone,

I have a lumia 800 that randomly deletes my contacts from my contacts list, the amount of contacts and when it deletes them is totally random.I contacted nokia support and they suggested a factory reset, which I did and the phone then promptly deleted 4 more of my contacts.I contacted nokia support again and they suggested a rollback to the previous backup before the latest update, tried to do this(twice) but this does not work and I get error code 801812eo.

suppose I wish to add some info from my contacts to an sms, is there any way to do that at present, except Cut and paste.In all my earlier phones there use to be "Add text" option (Android) or "add contact info" option by which I could directly add ny email/number.name from my address book to messages.
