Hi,
I would like help in how to transfer my contacts and sms messages from my sony ericsson K310i (Java based) to Samsung I8000 OmniaII (Windows Mobile based).
As for transfering contacts, i tried copying all my contacts to sim in my K310 then copy to phone on the I8000, i get weird entries in the form
LastName;FirstName/M (M: for mobile, W for work)
and it recognizes all that as a single name, i.e. if i want to edit the contact, LastName;FirstName/M will all be in the First Name field.
I think there might be a solution using K310 and a PC but i don't have a data cable and it's hard to get one currently.
Any help would be appreciated.
transfer contacts to Omnia II
if you can save your K310i contacts to a .vcf (vcard ) file then there's a windows mobile utility "vcard expert" available from the microsoft & samsung app stores that will transfer your contacts onto your Omnia II with correct formatting.
You could send this vcf file as an attachment in email to yourself then save the attachment to your device and load into the app. So you wouldn't need any data cables to do the transfer.
Thank you for your reply, it helped even if not directly. i forgot to say that i'm missing the K310i data cable not the OmniaII one (so its impossible to export contacts from K310i as the only option available is via infrared), but your info regarding .vcf files gave a new terms to my google searches.
I found an old infrared adapter. I tried first the option to export via infrared from the K310i and got a .vcf file, which when imported in outlook gave me just the first contact (although i opened in a notepad and saw all contacts there), any solutions there?
I then managed to use "My Phone Explorer" to sync contacts with outlook, then sync OmniaII with new contacts.
Now the only thing remaining is that i need to transfer my messages to the phone. My phone explorer can export messages in .sms/.csv/.txt file formats. I tried imobiletool sms backup to restore a .sms/.csv files but without luck (the WM program will not even see the file. and the pc program will give "file validation error" when tried to import). Any insight as how to import .sms messages?
Edit: I found a program that can split the single vcf file into multiple files each one for a contact, callud suppcom vcard splitter. still outlook has no right to refuse the single vcf file!
Edit: Its damn annoying that all the SMS backup/restore programs i found only restore backups created by the same program...sigh, is there no standards or compatibilty between programs??
Anyone have a solution to transfer sms to windows mobile phone, please?
sure, transfer nokia contacts to android is very easy, but the other way is hell
some of us have 2 phones or just need for some weird reason your contacts on a nokia symbian or s40
used google nexus 4 4.2.2
nokia 5800 s60v5
need:
*nokia pc suite
*nbuexplorer
1) have your android sync contacts to Gmail and nokia pc suite installed and nbuexplorer_v2.6.zip (or you can create the .vcf file by other means like apps, export from phone, etc) (i dont know if other ways work)
2) go to gmail / contacts / select all contacts / export
3) select (i used “the group” not all contacts), and select format: “vcard”, click export, the file (contact.vcf) is created
4) open nbuexplorer and drag the contact.vcf file (yes drag and drop)
5) right click on contacts, export, select a folder, a lot of vcf files are created (for each contact)
6) open nokia suite or pc suite, plug your nokia in ovi mode, or pc suite mode, let it sync, install support, etc.
7) go to contacts, file, import, then select all the vcf files created, (yes all of them)
8) let it sync the phone, that is it, you have all your android contacts in nokia, even contacts with pics
It actually worked !
You really made my day

Transfer Android contacts to nokia Symbian or S40
Thanks a million. This is really helpful for me. There are several ways to transfer Android contacts to Nokia Symbian. The post provides me with a new idea, which is more convenient.
Searched a lot for doing this and found this at last.
Thanks a ton man :good:
Thanks, worked superb with Nokia N82 (S60 v3)
Worked superb. Didn't bother with PC Suite, though. After had the multiple VCF folder, just copied .vcf files to ExtSD Card -> Other -> Contacts and selected 'Import' option in Contacts. Many thanks, bru
Export Google contacts to Nokia and vice versa
I developed an application to export Google contacts to Nokia or Nokia contacts to Google.
I have uploaded the file. You do not need to install it, just run the exe.
The password for archive is : 1234
There is a help in it, how to use.
Works well
