Hi,
How to save to my phone contacts (all or one by one) to my sim card so if i use my sim in another phone I get my contacts as well?
cheers...
Any body facing same issue
I don't think that is possible. You can copy the sim contacts to your phone so they can be synced to Windows Live but not the other way around.
You have to remember that WP7 is a very cloud based mobile OS...
thanks for reply, but its a basic feature that SIM can be used in other phones and not every phone syns with cloud or with outlook. so need transfer some important contact on SIM so these are always there. any other way transferring contacts from Mozart to other phone e.g. Motorola or Nokia. Bluetooth?
cheerss
I understand that other phones can do that, but WP7 is not other phones and right now it cannot be done. Sometimes missed features on the OS can be complemented with an app, Have you tried that?
Bluetooth is not supported either, at least not right now. You have an easy way to pass contacts to other phones, since WP7 is cloud based, you can manage all that stuff through the internet! Just go to your Hotmail contacts or Gmail contacts (or others, Outlook, Yahoo, etc) and export them in a format that you can import on other phones.
Agreed that WP7 is really at it's early stages and loads of features are missed e.g tethering
but my problem is that i use my SIM in some other phone while on roaming and that phone is a basic Motorola phone, not connected to internet and just for calls and sms. now how to transfer contacts to that phone? I only know the way of transferring contancts via SIM or bluetooth. any suggestion?
cheers...
Try to see if you can connect your phone to your computer and manage the contacts via motorola software or other. Also check if you can import contacts directly in your phone (nokias can do this). If you import via PC or phone you can export the contacts from the internet and then import them on the phone.
actually my other phone is a very basic Motorola L2. so need soem straight forward method to copy contacts.
But one thing strange, copying/saving contacts to SIM used to be a standard feature always. does this mean that in future we won't be having any SIM memory?
cheers...
I have no clue if this would be added to WP7 on future updates, but i don't really need it, as smartphones in gereral are more and more cloud based, and WP7 is even more cloud based than iOS or Android for instance.
Bringing old query again
any app out there that can copy the contacts to the SIM on HTC Mozart?
Hi, old query again.
is there any method even after Mango upgrade, to copy contents from my HTC Mozart to the SIM?
I don't understand why we cannot copy our contacts on windows phone to the sim card.
Its a cloud based OS and its supposed to send and receive your info from online accounts like Windows Live Hotmail, Gmail and others.
Maybe on homebrew someone will be doing it
I was wondering if it is possible to transfer apps from X10 to Arc so I don't lose the progress on the apps?
Also if anyone knows about Lookout Mobile, is transferring data from a phone to another a good option or does it only transfer stuff like SMS and emails?
You could use sony sync app that will certainly transfer all the contacts. Also if you have a spare sim card so that the phone is not in emergency mode you can just bt the contacts to the other phone.
While I have lookout I have not had to transfer to another phone so you would have to ask the developers.
Sent from my X10a using XDA Premium App
Hi everyone, I have the option greyed and when I put back the sim card to my sony ericsson all the contact of the sim appeared. I don't want to send all my phonebook to WIndows live, I just have name and phone number to import.
Is someone having the same problem?
Regards
The Sony Ericsson is not running Windows Phone 7, right?
Hmm, I never save my contact on my sim card, everything is in Google so easier for me to port over if I change phone / OS.
I use Windows Live on my laptop and it is great because it stores everything online and includes your Facebook and LinkedIn friends in your contacts database.
I had the same trouble, shop told me active sync would work the same as my HD2.... so when I looked to inport contacts and calendar from MSoffice on pc to phone angry at the idea of having to make it all available to the web first... Is there any other way????
If the option on your phone is grey'd out, it means that the phone doesn't detect anything on the SIM or you don't have anything on the SIM. I would suggest trying to copy them over again.
hello there,
today i received an iphone and i want to transfer my contacts to it, i think the best way is to use Google contact sync.
Unfortunately my old android phone is broken and sent to trash. But i have backed up my contacts2.db to my computer, do you know if there a way to transfer my contacts to Google contacts without using a phone ?
there such tools available ?
thanks much :good:
