Any app in Android can restore contact from PIMBackup backup file
have some problem with u, n i wasn't found any application to convert that file..
(i want migrating from winmo to android)
try this way, (sorry i can't write link in this forum coz newbie)
search on google with key "sprite mobile" (migrating contact,messaging,log call data)
it's like PIM backup on winmo
Hello,
I had solved the problem by
- deleting exchange account on winmo iphone
- setting up my gmail account as imap in winmo
- sync contacts etc. Between phone and gmail account
- using the gmail account w/ my new android device.
You can find some guides w/ a google search about how Toso configure gmail with winmo.

I just moved from WinMo to android and faced the same situation.
I first made a fresh PIM backup in case anything went sour. I setup activesync to sync with gmail (Google has a step by step tutorial that's based on WinMo 6.1 but it's fairly easy to figure out) This is where things can go sour, like doubling of contacts or appointments. If all goes well you'll have everything in your gmail account (it might take a while though).
If you have any pocket notes, and aren't synced with Outlook, you'll need to manually copy and paste them into OneNote Mobile. Then copy them to your desktop and open them in One Note.

Or, try this.
1. Open PIM Backup on your Windows Mobile device. Select the Backup action and unselect everything but contacts, then hit Next.
2. At the "Select backup filename and folder" screen, unselect the "compress backup" and "binary backup" options, then hit Next.
3. Transfer the BACKUP.PIB file that you just made from your phone to your computer. Change the extension from .PIB to .RAR, then extract the file.
4. The extracted file should be BACKUP.CSC. Simply change the extension to .CSV and import the file to your gmail account. All your contacts can now be imported to your phone through gmail - just follow the instructions given in the phone's contact menu.

Hi
As a noob to android, I wanted to ask step by step converting winmo PIM backup file to android. Which includes migrating contacts, messages, log call data etc)
Is this doable. Can any one advice. PLZ.
Thanks in advance.
Hi, i have a HTC HD2 running WM - Energy ROM and Android - Core Droid HD V0.2 and i want to use my contacts in Android.
I did as Dblfstr said, but the file i got from PIMBackup was contacts_20101206.pbc
I use PIM Backup v2.8.0.0
I did not mark "compress backup" and "binary backup" but still the file is some how binary and it shows garbage when opened by an editor.
Does somebody have another solution to this problem?
ThX!
forget about using pimbackup,i already tried everything and did nothing...
try using outlook,simply export the contacts to CSV and import them in google
or send them via bluetooth (for those who have 2 devices)
there were quite a few contacts that were saved on my phones internal memory before i switched to android. Unaware of these contacts, and unaware of proper procedure to restore the pim backup once android was up and running. I created the standard backup with compression enabled and all default specifications. Can I restore the contacts with the default pimbackup method?
thanks

I have the same problem in that I didn't know about the compression. Is there any way to uncompress and will I be able to restore text messages as I'm not really worried about call logs, emails and contacts?

Hello. I have an HTC One S with Cyanogenmod 11S installed. I came to CM from HTC Sense 5 and backed up all application data with Online Nandroid Backup and Helium. I also have an HTC keyboard dictionary file (*.htcudb). So after changing Android versions I successfully restored all my application data with Helium. But cannot restore user dictionary and SMS database.
When I select SMS in Helium, it starts the restore procedure but no old SMS messages appear in SMS app.
The Keyboard dictionary file is invisible for standard keyboard at all. It just keeps saying "No user dictionary found in Downloads folder" or similar.
Is there any solution for these two things? Thank you!
Guys
I just moved to a Nexus 6 where I'm using the stock AOSP keyboard. When I go to swype settings on my old S4, it shows me personal dictionary but no way to export it to a text file that I can use on my nexus 6. Any ideas on where swype stores this file in the system or any other tricks I can use to do this?
Thanks
Swype's personal dictionary is linked with the email address you put in it. Then your words are synced to their servers and re download when you change devices. So the best way is to use the Swype app on your Nexus 6 too.
You can't import it as a text file and mount it in the stock keyboard app as far as I know.
Hope I helped.
Hi All,
Sorry if my question its not related to our oneplus one phone. But I just wondering, any steps to sync the personal dictionaries in our keyboard to google or another? I always input some of new word as my personal dictionaries when I'm typing with keyboard, it can make me more fast n easy for typing.
But every time I do clean flash for new ROM, my dict always gone even I'm already back up my keyboard with titanium backup and restore it.
Any suggestion?
I also have installed Google Keyboard app on my tablet and have selected my main Google account as the sync account. The dictionary was initially empty but I have added some words. I also pressed "Sync now" after adding the words.
I have also installed the Google Keyboard app on my phone and just have also selected the same account as on the tablet and have pressed "Sync now". BUT the dictionary hasn't transferred to my phone.
Any ideas on how to make this will work? Thanks!
Hi
Thank you for using XDA Assist.
Select “Google Keyboard Sync” from the Accounts & Privacy setting.
