Is their anyway I can sync my BlackBerry contacts to my Gmail so that every time I save a contact it saves to my Gmail. Right now my BlackBerry 10 syncs all my contacts from Gmail to bbm

I have my Gmail set up as an Exchange account and 2 way sync works great. Even sends profile pics set on the device up to Gmail.

When you add an account, click on Advanced at the bottom.

Mine syncs automatically. I've even watched it.

Made a change in the Zed and it updated on Gmail simultaneously.

You'll want to choose Microsoft Exchange.

I already have my email set do I need to delete it

[dmacne]

Does this save any of the linked accounts?

If I lose my phone with all the links can I get those from a cloud services?

In order to set it up as Exchange yes. Are your contacts stored on your Google account? If so and if you delete your account any links/associations you've made with you contacts will be lost. If you don't care about losing your linked contacts and your contacts are stored on your email account safely, then go for it.

Basically the source of your contacts should be Gmail for all of this to work.

Make the user name field just above your email address, your full email address. Both username and email address will be the same.

I think exchange is no longer supported by Gmail. Just add it as a Gmail account and add the carddav calender and contacts. You'll see it under adding the email. Mine syncs and that's how I have it set up.

But will it sync my contacts back to Gmail tho

Yes, so if you put in information on your blackberry it syncs it to Gmail, and vice versa. I didn't even know people were setting up Gmail as exchange because Google was discontinuing the service.
