Default [Q] Contact Transfer for AT&T SGS-2 From Atrix w/ Different Gmail Address

I am getting a New Samsung Galxy S-2 and would like to know how to transfer or restore my contacts, here's the Glitch.

I have a Atrix, and the Gmail Account is Different than the Gmail Account Im planning to use on the SGS-2.

How do I get the 465 contacts from one Google account to another?

Thank you In advance

Larry

go to contacts on the atrix
menu, and find the import/export
export to sd card

take the .vcf that it creates, and import it in your new phone. dont know of any way to take it from one gmail account to another.

i have to ask WHY you want to do it this way though?

why are you using a different gmail account?

My Primary email is a roadrunner account, I did something stupid I included "Atrix" in my gmail name.

I didnt get the Samsung yet, so I was try to figure out how to synch or get the contacts over to the new email

Default PirateGhost! you did it!

Hey thank you, you did it, you made me think..... I exported the entire 465 contacts to a Google File like you said, but I did it on My PC! and to my Desktop. I then Logged into the new Gmail Account Im going to use for the Galaxy S-2, and Imported them. Blink their all their.

Now when I log into the gmail account (New One) on the SGS-2, the Contacts will automatically show up on the phone????
