Nokia 5800 (and others on Symbian 9.x) - sync calendar and contacts with Google Calendar and Gmail

I recently had a Nokia 5800 phone and, of course, the first thing I wanted to do was synchronize contacts. Since I actively use the services of Google, respectively, the most current database of contacts I have in Gmail.

It turned out that the contacts and calendar of the phone are easily synchronized with Google via Mail for Exchange, the Nokia application included in the software bundle supplied with the phone.

This synchronization can be configured on any Nokia phone on which you can install Mail for Exchange, these are all phones on Symbian 9.x. Check if your model is supported on the Nokia website .

At first, Google recommends updating Mail for Exchange to the latest version; we take this program on the Nokia website .

Then open the program itself, it will offer to fill out the profile. Configure the following settings.

Compound:
Exchange Server: m.google.com
Safe connection: Yes
Access Point: Internet
Sync. in roaming: As you want
Use default port: Yes

Uch. data:
Username: Full Google email, for example: jon@gmail.com
Password: Google Password
Domain: Leave blank

Next you need to specify the synchronization schedule, it is divided into two periods - with maximum load and without load, the schedule for which you can set different. For example, during working hours more often than during non-working hours.

Next, you need to specify synchronization settings for calendar, tasks, contacts and mail. Currently only calendar and contacts are supported. For them, you can specify whether to save the existing records in the phone when you first synchronize.

UPD: As The_Alex correctly suggests, By default, MfE sets the “first sync” option to “delete items in the phone”. Be careful.

It's all. Then everything is quietly synchronized and even pictures for contacts, which is nice. The application can be closed, it always works in the background.

Here is a link to the original instructions from Google in English.

UPD2: allmoney reports. that synchronization works with Google Apps accounts on your domain
