Contacts to favorites ?

I have all contacts on my sim card. How do i put some of these in my favorites tab ? Do you have to add new contact to get pictures/special ringtones ... for the existing numbers ?

I think the contacts has to be on the phone for that. And why are you not doing that?. I have all my contacts on Google, which means that the second I get a new android device I have my contacts etc up and running within minutes of powering on my phone

Can i import my contacts from my P990 to my Gmail/ contacts ?

Im not sure which LG phone the P990 is unless its actually the LG 2x :P. But yes you can.

The trick is importing all the contacts from sthe sim to the phone. And then change the contact "setting" from Phone to Gmail/Google and then it all gets synched there.

Only downside is that all contacts that you have on Google that emails you and such, gets synched to the phone as well. So I regularly go through my google contacts and clean them out to remove all those contacts I dont want. Either that or simply choose not to show contacts without a phone number in my list of contacts on my phone.

You could assign a group to those contacts you want to show in the phones contact list, and on the phone filter by that group.

To import contacts from X2 to gmail it needs CSV- or vCard-file ?

No,

are the contacts on your phone now, or still on your SIM?

I have them on my phone

Im not sure how you do it on the LG, but I know I had the option to change a contat from being just a phone contact and change it into being a google one. Being a google one meaning that it would sync to googles cloud and thus be accessible on every android device I would ever own.
