Hey! Don't know if you've tried this method yet but I'll post it anyway:
Transferring your contacts
The first step in this rather easy process would be to create a Gmail account if you don’t already have one. Why do you need to do this? Android requires -- note how we put that in bold italics -- a Google account in order to activate the phone. Once your new account is created add it to your device, then download Google Sync on your BlackBerry, which syncs your contacts and calendar into Gmail. The backup process can take some time, depending on the size of your phone book. But once you sync that new Gmail account to your Android phone, it will now pull all of your contacts, e-mail and calendar to the device. Rather simple, huh?
Did a quick Google search on this topic and got that info from here: http://www.androidcentral.com/jumping-blackberry-android-heres-what-you-need-know
Let us know if it helped!

Yahoo Go beta is old news that I know of. It's kinda a memory hog as well.

Sending contacts using SMS

Is there a way to bring up a contact on my phone and then forward that using SMS? I have searched everything I can think of and haven't been able to find an answer. My wife uses me as her personal 411 and I can't tell you how much it would mean to me if I could bring up a contact she's asking about then choose and option to SMS send it to her.
Help please, if you have any suggestions.
you mean send phone number (contact) with sms ?
Yes.. exactly!
Andy... Where is the app for that screenshot?
Major warning guys
Do not click on the picture above as it sends you to a site that is nastily infected... just in case this only happened for me, please do not hesitate to delete this message... anyrate, just a friendly warning...
Also, yes please, tell me where we can get this extension!
This is a feature in WM 6.5 (or maybe it's 6.5.x) anyway - I know I can send a contact (or part of a contact, you get to select what exactly) by SMS or Beam (infra-red if you still have an irda port)
I can't screen shot (don't have the app installed) but have tested it - it works great between WM devices, however sending info to an iPhone results in absolutely nothing happening - so must be a WM native thing?
Aj
Im also lookin for something like this i guess i got into the habot after i used a nokia when my old phone was on the fritz i could send a contacts details to anybody and they would recieve it no problem. While my TP2 which is supposed to be such a "smart" phone cant send a contacts details??
try this, it's not perfect though:

Do you use google voice? Do you have other names in there? What is listed as details when you click one? ....
U can even click on your post and edit it to include some more details if you're looking for help.
If u wanna explore something, to to your contacts, hit menu, more, display options.
If u have all or most of your contacts saved to your gmail account (and not just to the "phone), you would also he able to go to google.com/contacts to so some contact list maintenance.

I have the same problem haha. Its a Google contact thing.
Shifted from my Evo using XDA app.
I found that editing my contacts through google on my PC corrected most of these for me. I also got a bunch because I had two identical Facebook profiles under my synced accounts. Pared it down to 1 google and 1 facebook account, and all was good.

The title says it all,
The gmail native app, when various accounts are set, does not allow switching accounts, in the "from" section.

I just had a quick check and my GN has no problems allowing me to switch accounts in the "from" field when creating emails with gmail.
I have 3 accounts and they all show up when I click "from"

I know, but when i looked for it at the market couldnt find it either, i was thinking on just apk it but had no time yet.
Now I tried and still is not working, because I meant when trying to reply or forward email, not when composing.
Still my old Sgs could do without a problem. I still think it is a missing feature.
Am I right or wrong?

Picasa folders in Gallery

Hello,
i've noticed this annoying fact on my NoteII.
I've tried on various roms but the problems remains.
I sync my photos with google+ and it's ok with the Galaxy Nexus. I see my local folders and 1 (ONE!), only one gallery called "Automatic backup"; plus other picasa gallery, all created on google+.
This is what i have with the samsung default gallery app
countless f*****g galleries ...not even in a logical order!

I've also installed AOSP gallery on my noteII. Works fine but, what's the problem with the stock gallery?
someone else?
thanks
Remove your google account, then add it again. After login, quickly go to your google account settings and disable picasa web albums sync.
Hope this help...
Simple solution go to settings application manager scroll to all select gallery and now clear data and disabled Le sync works like a charm.

uhmmm nope,
i don't want to stop using this service, i want to use it in the right way, like the AOSP gallery
no way?
It's not properly a "fix" but...i had to delete all my google+ images on posts and now i have only my albums and the folder for the automatic backup.
On Galaxy Nexus all the f+++ing galleries are grouped under a single folder. I'm not able to understand what's wrong with samsung gallery
