Accounts and Synchronization
Your phone provides the ability to synchronize data from a variety
of different sources or sites. These accounts can range from
Google, a Corporate Microsoft Exchange Email Server, and other
social sites such as Facebook, Twitter, and MySpace. Corporate
and Google accounts provide the ability to synchronize Calendar
events and Contacts.
To enable the auto-sync feature:
1. Press ➔ and then tap (Settings) ➔
Accounts and sync.
2. Tap Auto-sync. A green checkmark indicates the feature is
enabled. This feature enables the synchronization of data
between your phone and external sites or servers.
• The three main components are Contacts Email, and Calendar
Events. Before these can be synchronized, they must be added to
the managed accounts list.
• Background data: allows your phone to use data in the
background.
Synchronizing a Google Account

must be manually added.
To manage an existing Google account:

Note: If you do not already have a Google account, tap Create and follow the
on-screen prompts to create your new account.

and enter your information.
5. Tap Sign in. Your phone then communicates with the
Google servers to confirm your information. Your existing
Gmail account then appears within the Manage accounts
area of the screen.

automatically updated to your device.
