I bought a new HTC EVO today, my first foray into the world of Android. I have been searching the forums for awhile trying to figure out how to get the phone contacts from my old Sanyo S1, but to no avail. I managed to get the two phones connected using Bluetooth and shipped all my contacts off to the EVO. I have the EVO connected to my Mac as via USB and set to appear as a hard drive. I can see about a bazillion .vcf files in my downloads/bluetooth folder.
I downloaded and installed Import Contacts but it just crashes. Visiting their website I saw that it's intended for pre 2.x Android and that Android 2.x has an app for that. Uninstall IC.
I found some sort of contacts app on the phone which prompted me to scan my SD card for .vcf files then told me I don't have an SD card. That may be, but I've got the dang files somewhere on my phone! Now I can't find the contacts app again.
I don't really want all of Gmail's synthetic contacts in my phone. I just want my phone numbers. I believe I have them on the phone somewhere but can't convert them into phonebook entries.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
