how to import contacts in android phone from csv file
-
After 15+ years, we've made a big change: Android Forums is now Early Bird Club. Learn more here.
If you can get them into vcard (vcf) format then it's easy, as you can import that directly into the android phone's contacts app (put vcf on sd card, go to contacts app, in settings select "import", select file, done).
Otherwise, you could import the csv into GMail, using the same GMail account as the android phone. Then sync the phone's contacts with Google and it will load them all to the phone. This post says a little more: http://androidforums.com/4504262-post4.html.
Or you can import the csv into Outlook on a PC and see whether you can sync from there. Some manufacturers provide tools for this - not knowing what phone you have I can't say whether yours is one of them. The GMail route would be simpler, since that's what Android is designed to do.
