Thread: Sync Google Contacts with nokia 5800

Google gives you the ability to synchronize your phone contacts with the contacts on your gmail account. Google has given information how to do it on other devices rather than s60 v5 (5800).
I saw the settings that they put on the other devices and i made you a quick tutorial so that you will be able to do it on 5800 devices.

Without images:
Go to Menu -> settings -> Connectivity -> Data transfer -> Sync -> New sync profile
In the 1st page put any name for the profile
In the 2nd page select "1.2"
In the 3rd page select ONLY Contacts
In the 4rth page type "Contacts" (without the quotes)
In the 5th page select "Internet"
In the 6th page type "https://m.google.com/syncml" (watch out for the "s" on "https")
In the 7th page type "Google" (capital ‘G’ is important)
In the 8th page put the user name of your account
In the 9th page put the password of your account

Once you are over with the pages it will go you to "sync"
You will press options -> Change active profile -> The name of your profile
It's ready for you to try it!

Go to your contacts and press Options -> Synchronization -> Start
It is ready!!!!!!!!!!!

Great tutorial. Do you also know how to sync with google calendar?

You need Mail for exchange from ovi store

Hye.. What if I choose "Contacts" and "Contacts Group"? Will it able to organize my contacts with their respective groups as well?

I don't think that it works anymore.... For me it doesn't!
I now use Mail for exchange to sync my contacts and the calendar
