Ubuntu Touch has EDS (Evolution-data-server) installed. So you can sync it using syncevolution.



First install latest stable version from repo:



For =>14.04



sudo apt-get install syncevolution syncevolution-provider-uoa


For <=13.10



sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://downloads.syncevolution.org/apt stable main"
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install syncevolution-evolution


If you are using Google-Contacts, then export all contacts as vcf (i.e allcontacts.vcf) & then import it using following command at terminal (Change the path & database accordingly):



syncevolution --import /path/to/file/allcontacts.vcf backend=evolution-contacts database=Personal


To know the names of all available databases type:



syncevolution --print-databases

NOTE :



If vcard file (contacts.vcf) doesn't have new line space after END:VCARD, syncevolution might fail to import all the contacts.
