Hi all

i ve just got a new K850i... really happy with it....

however i have to use my orignal sim card out of my sony w850i.... i want to transfer my numbers over but the sim only holds 200 and no other details...

i think the only way is to borrow another vodafone sim and bluetooth them across...

but nobody i know is on vodafone any other ways? the old phone still works...

any programs that will do it for me?

cheers!

cant you put the sim in the new phone, then put the numbers onto the phones memory card?

RobCarden

i can mate but the prob is the sim only holds 200 number and none of the details.

i use the phone for work as well so there is shit loads of numbers and email addresses etc... when i had 2 sims and as the old and new phones are both sony i could bluetooth everything over...

see my prob?

cant you use the sony software ? install to the computer, sync computer to the w850 and update your contacts then switch to the k850 and sync the computer with the k850 and load the contacts on ?

RobCarden

thats an idea!

i ll give it a try... i ll let you know if it works

cheers

what he said.

k850i's are 299.00 open to all networks at CPW

RobCarden

ok cool. just installed the software.

so i need to have the sim in the old phone (w850i) and make a backup

then put the sim in the new phone (k850i) and restore?

will it let me restore to a different phone?

again, thanks for the replies

You can transfer all your numbers across using blue tooth or infra red . Just go into the menu select "contacts", then press "options", scroll down and select "advanced", scroll down and select "send all contacts", then chose to send via infa red or blue tooth (making sure these are activated on your new phone) .

Job done

some phones dont have the capability of 'reading' the files containing phone numbers sent to them through bluetooth.

RobCarden

not with only 1 sim card and 2 phones you can't

RobCarden

i know what you mean but hopefully as they are both sonys they might.... if i had another vodafone sim.... that might be the only way.....

or you could just sack it off and masterbate.

Borrow a sim card off a friend / girlfriend - it's not rocket science - unless of course you have neither .

Does your mother wipe your arse after you've had a shit ?

They WILL transfer across as per my post, as I have done the same from a W800i to a K750i .

RobCarden

i'm alone in the house (so foreverwhite yours might be the best advice ) and i want it done NOW

can't be doing with this waiting lark...

anyway... no thanks to you mike - SORTED!

sony program will only restore to the phone that made the backup...

however....

my phone explorer - found here.... WILL! http://www.fjsoft.at/en/

it also transfered all the appointments from the calendar to.


excellent.... cheers all.

Mike, I'm quite impressed at your technical know how - where did you steal it from?
