Use Contacts Setup, a PC Companion application, to transfer contacts to your new Sony Android™ phone. Contacts Setup gathers contacts from different sources, like your old phone and your computer. The contacts are then copied to your Google™ account and synced with your new phone.

To start PC Companion:

1. Start your new phone and connect it to a computer using a USB cable.

2. New phone: Tap Install, to install PC Companion on the computer.

3. Computer: If a popup appears, select Run Startme.exe. In the Installer popup, click Install to start the installation and then follow the instructions to install the application.

4. In PC Companion, open the Contacts Setup application and follow the instructions to transfer your contacts.

Note: If you have problems using your phone to install PC Companion, you can download it via the download page:

Don't be, you already have a file with all your contacts stored on your computer.

open your phonebook

press MENU button -> tap on Send Contacts -> select all -> send it to your email

on your computer

-> download the file -> go to your gmail -> click on contacts -> click on more actions -> on the drop down menu click on "import" -> choose the file -> and click import

you can try this

on your computer -> gmail -> contacts -> more (drop down menu) -> find & merge duplicates
