Hi, I didn't think that Google was accepting new Exchange accounts, thus
the need to use CardDav.

You can also set up your gmail account as an exchange account and then it
will sync all of it, email, calendar and contacts.
Use m.google.com as the server and google.com as the domain.

Subject: Re: caldav account to sync google contacts
You need to use CardDav and not CalDav to sync your Google Contacts. I
suspect this is just a typo.
I'm not sure what's going on with your phone, I just followed the
instructions I got on the web and it just worked.
To set your default Contacts go into Settings -> Mail, Contacts,
Calendars and jump down to the Contacts heading. Double tapping on the
default account button will let you change it.
I didn't have to specify that contacts is the service I want to use. I'm
assuming that's because the CardDav protocol is being used.
Make sure you give the account a recognizable name so you won't get it
confused with your Google IMAP account in the Settings -> Mail,
Contacts, Calendars page.
For example, I see
Google, Mail, Calendar, Notes
Google, Contacts
Note, I called both accounts Google, so I didn't follow my advice from
above. The "Google, Contacts" is the CardDav account I added to sync my
Google Contacts.

Hi, I went googling and found out that i can sync my goglecontacts
through caldav. I followed the steps and added the account but now still
dont see the option to make this the standard contacts account and also
contacts are not selected as the items that are synced with htis
account. I logged into the google website but did not get any messages
there as if i should ahthorize it.
What might i be doing wrong?
