Ok, I had ann IPhone 3G for a bit over two years and had the contacts just the way I wanted them.
Now I have an HTC Inspire 4G, had it for about 5 weeks and LOVE the phone
BUT
I'm having a heck of a time figuring out how to get the contacts into the phone the way I like.
I'm confused by the whole Google contacts/sync/link thing that the phone wants to do.
I have managed to transfer my contacts from the SIM card to the Inspire and it's pulling some stuff off of Facebook (photos and updates and ???) but I only have a few contacts in Google Contacts.
I know that to do this right I need to get all the IPhone contacts into Google contacts but everytime I manually put one in, the phone asks to link to it and I end up with twice the number of contacts in the phone.
I have no problem with getting all my contacts into Google and the cloud but I wnat to know the best way to go about it.
Should I upload all my IPhone contacts to Google contacts, clear the info from "people" in the phone and start over ? Or what?
Can someone please give me a simplified explanation of how the Google/cloud thing works. And some ideas on how to get the contact info from my old IPhone into the Inspire as intact as possible.
Thanks
Dave
