Contacts List
Creating a Contact
The default storage location for saving phone numbers to
your Contacts List is your device’s built-in memory.
If existing Google and Corporate email accounts have been
synchronized to your phone, these will be made available to
your device during the creation of new entries. These new
Contacts entries can be assigned or saved to synced
accounts such as Phone, SIM, Google, or Corporate.
Your device automatically sorts the Contacts entries
alphabetically. You can create either a
Phone
,
SIM
,
Samsung
account
,
Google
, or
Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync
contact.
Important!
The Google and Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync
account types are only visible after creating an
email account of those types on your phone.

Joining Contact Information
Most people now maintain multiple email accounts, social
networking logins, and other similar account information. For
example, a Facebook account login name might differ from a
corporate email account login because they are maintained
separately and for different groups of people.
This device can synchronize with multiple accounts. When
you synchronize your phone with those accounts, each
account creates a separate contact entry in the Contacts list.
If one of your contacts (Amy Smith) has a regular email
account that you maintain in Gmail, but also has a Facebook
account under her maiden and married name, as well as a
Video! chat account, when you merge those accounts into
your Contacts list you can join all of her entries and view the
information in one record.
Joining contact information makes sending messages easy.
You can select any account email address or information all
from one screen, versus searching multiple, individual
screens to locate the desired account information.
Next time you synchronize your phone with your accounts,
any updates contacts make to email account names, email
addresses, etc. automatically update in your contacts list.

three phone records for John Smith, the Voice dialer is
looking for the “default” number or entry.

Network), you will first need to set up an IMAP or POP
account.

frequently used in large networks and commercial settings.
IMAP4 is the current standard.
•
POP3
(Post Office Protocol) - This protocol is supported by most
ISPs (Internet service providers) and common among consumer
applications. POP3 is the current standard.
•

Sharing Pictures XXXXX
Pictures are the best way of remembering the moment, but
an even better treat is to share them with others.
Two new features allow you to either instantly share a series
of pictures as they are taken or quickly share a picture
without using email or messaging.
•
Share Shot
is a great way to instantly share a series of pictures
among a group of users. The best example for this feature is
having multiple users instantly sharing each others pictures at a
company or family gathering. As each person takes a separate
picture with their own device, they are all pooled together and
instantly appear in each user’s Gallery.
No more “Email your pictures to me later”. Each person walks out
of the event with all the pictures taken by everyone.
This method of image transfer requires that both devices have
Wi-Fi Direct active and be paired prior to use.

also have their Wi-Fi Direct feature active.
