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 Microsoft
Exchange 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.
Depending on the storage size of the particular SIM card, the
maximum number of phone numbers the card can store may differ.
You can create a Phone, Google, or Microsoft Exchange
ActiveSync contact.
Note: Before you can save a contact to the Phone, Contact settings must be
set to Save new contacts to Phone.
Important!: The Google and Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync account types
are only visible after creating an email account of those types on
your phone.
• Phone contacts are stored locally on the device.
Note: If the phone is reset to its factory default parameters, contacts stored on
the phone 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 Gmail 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 Microsoft
® Outlook ® .
• Remember this choice assigns the desired default account storage
location for new Contact entries.
Note: When storing an entry into your SIM card, note that only the Name, and
Number are saved. To save additional information for a particular
contact, such as notes, email, dates, etc., it is important to save that
Contact into your phone’s onboard memory.
