If your Google account is not a Gmail account then you'll need to create a Gmail account and everything will then be linked. You'll use your Gmail account for everything, but still be able to log in using the original email address. Note: you will have to log out of Google Play and back in with the new Gmail address or nothing will work.once you sign into your google account they should all be there. make sure in contacts>settings> and find where it asks you what to display and make sure google is check marked. and when you create a new contact always make sure you create it in google. Not the sim or phone
