OK, so, I don't want to run Exchange on my personal phone anymore (I have a mandatory carry BB) but I want to keep all the contacts.
I don't want to use kies, or any app to do a backup (cause I try custom roms all the time) I just want the contacts.
Anyone know how to rip them out to be put back in w a custom rom without an app?

I want to keep them on the e4gt..
I know its a vcf file, but how to import without using exchange to do it.

Are these contacts also on your bb? Because when you remove exchange from your epic the exchange contacts will disappear then you can share them from your bb using bluettoth and then they will sync with Google and always be available in the future
This was the simplest way for me. I know there are other ways however I am not familiar with them

You should be able to export them to the SD card, remove the Exchange account, then import them again.

I'm guessing you haven't sync'd your Google acct yet...Try to sign into gmail on a regular computer see if they still there, if not then I think you're SOL sorry.

Just go to settings - accounts - then click on google. You see where it says sync gmail and click it. Give about a minute to sync. Then check contacts.

He should be able to export his id card from his phone and import it to his Gmail account which will add the contacts to his account. But if the contacts are all gone he's screwed

Do you know what your server uses or are you grasping at straws? Try asking your activesync exchange server administrator for the settings.

If none of the options you are using are connecting to the server then you are likely not using the correct server address.
try mail.*****.*** instead of *****.*** as the server.
Are you trying to set up hotmail? if so you have to do it manually . I can tell you how if that's what you're trying to do

try this..
go to add account, fill in your information (your email and password) then hit manual setup..
then on the next screen hit exchange
then on the next screen called ( account setup ) under domain ..you will have to fill it out to look like this ( \[email protected] )
then scroll down to server and fill it in to look like this ( m.email.com )
make sure use secure connection (ssl) is checked
then hit next
not sure if this will help.. this is how to manually set up an account

There should be an app out there, or pick the ones you know you'll need and actually save them to your phone.

So, I want to back up the contacts I had on my phone sim card before flashing rom -Aokp task 650-.
I really cant stand that it auto synched all my google contacts. In fact... I think the invention of synch should be completely eliminated it messes up everything.
So I only want to have phone contacts and nothing to do with any synch or email or anything. I think i been clear enough haha.
Also the jellybean limits my options about contacts and sim card and such.
So...what options do i have?
Thank you in advance.

1. Get GoContacts or GoContactsEx. You can export all your contacts into an XML file. After you load your ROM, simple import the list back.
I would strongly recommend this cos of ease. Plus, you could keep multiple copies of contacts export files.
2. In TiBu, backup contacts storage, and restore later and reboot.

Go into contacts...hit menu... select contacts to display. Then select which ones you want to display i.e. phone, Google, Facebook, etc. Or create customized list. Phone is what is saved to your phone not Google. When you flash it's basically nothing but you
So do i have to reflash the rom and wipe everything from recover?
Update!
Ok i decided to delete all and simply impirted from simcard. All is as it should be.

SIM card has limits on number of fields you can store. So if all you store is numbers, this method should work great.
