The following steps can be applied to most Android devices, they are used to copy/import your contacts from your hosted exchange environment to your Android device. After enabling the service any new contacts created and edited on your hosted exchange will be copied/updated on your Android device, however the reverse will not take effect. Please read all the steps before trying to set this up.
