good day all, this few past day i was troubled with my blackberry 9810 contacts. it's give me trouble now because i just realize that when i buy a android smartphone, the contacts will be restore from gmail account(one of the option, and i choose this then other). but all my most latest and updated contact is located at my blackberry handheld. After bought the android smartphone i still use my blackberry handheld not just replace it with the new one. And the question is how can i restore my blackberry contact to the android with perfect ?
if you using a full blackberry services then it should have no problem, but in my case, i have not using the full blackberry service for a long time, and when i use that blackberry service, i don't know how can my blackberry contact has a few double contact entry. that's new problem.
so this few past day i try to find how to backup all my blackberry contact to gmail and then i remove the double contact entry and the android should sync automatically (if mobile data/wi-fi turned on).
gmail could import contact from CSV file but i've tried it and give no good result. i don't know whether the mistake is at the CSV format, or the backup contact data. how can i get the backup contact data is, i backup the contact using the desktop manager and then i get the CSV using magicberry.
and now let's we move to the successfull way. Make sure you have your blackberry with full Blackberry services, in this case my main cellphone number don't using a full services, so i bought a new number and register for a daily full blackberry services (this will have a cheaper solutions) and top up the number with a minimum amount voucher.
sync your blackberry contact to gmail, make sure the gmail get the latest contact from your blackberry. how to make sure, delete gmail account in the blackberry and re-add it, and choose the sync contact to the gmail. after that, check google.com/contact and check if the gmail contact is same like the blackberry contact. After that go to blackberry contact - options - choose the gmail account contact - and uncheck the sync contact wirelessly.
if you have double contact entry like mine, then delete it from your gmail contact, make sure the gmail contact is the main contact repository and then you click more button above the contact list. export all the contact to google csv format. why you have to do this, so if you fail to restore the contact to the blackberry or the gmail contact get the replace by the old blackberry contact you still can delete all the gmail contact and then re-import it from the csv you just exported.
after that back to your blackberry, contact - option and then type WIPE or RSET, it doesn't have to be capital. then if you choose yes, all your blackberry contact will be wiped. after a few minute, your blackberry will come up with empty contact. after that, go to contact - option, select the gmail account and then select sync contact wirelessly. in a few minutes (depend on your network) your blackberry contact will be restored from your gmail contact. you can re-check your blackberry contact with the gmail contact. it should be the same.
at last i can have a clean blackberry, gmail and android contact. and make my gmail as my main contact repository.
