Transfer phonebook from old to new phone - General Topics

I am trying to find way to transfer all contacts from OLD phone ( sgh - e530)... and still nothing.dozen of apps/ windows software,virtual machine.
I have new phone - Nokia Lumia 720,but i cant transfer all my phones (about 150 contacts ) .
First i've tried Samsung PC Studio,Samsung PC Studio II 2.0.And i manage to copy all 150 to SIM card + a single file with all contacts on my desktop ,but is .ESB file and cant find way how to use it....Then i put the sim on my HTC Desire c ,but unfortunately i cant send those sim contacts via bluetooth to my new Nokia, because before 2 weeks i install custom ROM, so i cant access the sim.
Also i've tried Samsung PC Studio 3, Samsung PC Studio 7 ,but the phone is not supported The last one is installed on virtual machine (vmware workstation)
So, i need some software that supports SGH e530 ,or some kind of bluetooth access, or idk what...simply i cant imagine what else to do ....
PS : i cant put that SIM on nokia ,because Nokia supports OnlY Micro SIM,

Try going to your carrier and ask them to transfer your contacts over from your old phone to your new. Most will be able to.

As mentioned above I believe that your carrier will have a tool that you can just place the sim cards into and it will transfer them. We had one at work, and AFAIK you can also purchase them for not too much, however if it's a one off job, it seems pretty frivolous..

The best way for Microsoft phones is to use outlook. Most phones (the pc software) have a connector to this program.

Transferring Contacts To A Non-WM Phone Without Using SIM?

I also have a Sony Ericsson W580i as a "backup" phone and I want to transfer all of my current contacts to that phone without having to copy all of them to my SIM card. Is there any way I can extract the numbers from my PPCPIM backup files?
Maybe there's a different way?
Thanks in advance.
Exchange/Outlook would be the most viable way, assuming the SE phone supports either.
If you have an Exchange server with your contacts on it, you could just connect to that. Failing that, you could sync your contacts directly to Outlook on your PC from your WM phone, and then back to the SE phone.

[Q] Reusing phone

I will soon have an adroid smartphone that will no longer have a simm card with at&t. If it is a supported phone, can I download cm7 etc and still use it with SIP?

Really old phone, trying to get pictures off for someone

Ok, so I have someone's Kyocera Kona S2151 flip phone. Now when I plug it into my pc in device manager there shows two "modems" and a serial port without a driver. Even after installing the specific driver for this phone from the Kyocera website it still says there is no driver. I tried to manually select the driver from the folder that was created during the install, not a single one of the 6 worked. Now all of this might even be a moot point as I don't even know if this device will allow me to pull the pictures off of it using a USB cable attached to a pc and everything on the web says I should be able to but there's also a Kona android smart version. I also can't find anything that says I can't either lol. Now I would Bluetooth but there are no options for sending photos via Bluetooth and whats worse is the antennae for the cell service is going out so it won't stay connected to the tower (I assume its the antennae, I'm not gonna try and fix something this old, also its sprint which just got absorbed by Tmobile which could also be the issue bc its pre sim card).
So, in summary, I am trying to retrieve the photos. You can't Bluetooth them, there's no SD card slot, I can't text or email them due to lack of wifi and cell service issues, Which leads to the only option left, PC USB transfer but I can't get that working either due to what I am hoping is simply driver issues. If I need to use an older Operating system that's fine I have another pc here I can mess with to my heart's desire.
I know this isn't android, rooting, modding, custom os, related but this forum is home to some of the smartest people, it's where I come to get all my instructions and files for phones. if anyone could help I'm hoping it's the community here.
Oops, just saw the "don't post questions here" my bad... sry
Update, I installed xp on an older pc I had sitting around. ALL drivers worked fine BUT it appears the only functionality this phone would have for a pc is to act as a modem. There doesn't seem to be ANY functionality in the way of file browsing or retrieving media. Furthermore, this specific phone lacks media sharing over any other connection aside from the mobile network. So if anyone has one of these old phones and it no longer has service/can no longer connect to towers your only option is going to be a data retrieval company.
Bummer, some older phones are very limited when it comes to retrieval. cheers

It seems that now the only way is to have the driver work and then use PC USB transfer. In addition to the driver from the Kyocera website, have you tried the Google Android USB Driver for Windows? It's available on the Android Developer website. Have a try. Good luck to you.
Flip phone, not an anroid
