you make sync with the pc once?
looks on contacts in outlook
oh haven't think about it thank you very much
and the second question is how can i re-arrange my contacts(which are now in outlook)to the device?I'm a novice as you can see
i dont use outolook to sync my contacts so maybe i cant help much..
but, try to sync again your device...probably he will get again your contacts
just sync your phone again, it should add the contacts back in
I have formatted my phone,upgraded it to wm6 so the ID of the phone has changed.So reconnecting does not work because sync does not recognize the old phone.Which software do you use to recover the contacts?
It will give you a new Id (which you can change later). Whatever ID you use, it will still sync with your contacts.
Hello can anyone please help me with a contacts backup software which is JAVA based. Actually I wanna transfer my contacts to other phone which is not a WM but is JAVA enabled, so please help me...!!!
P.S please I know abot PIM backup but I need a JAVA based software.
There is very little Java apps.
If your other phone is able to connect to internet via USB or Wifi, you can try Google Sync, which is able to sync to any google account.
Or find this software called 'Mobiledit', which is a really good payware, you can transfer contacts and photos from one device to another.
Or another way is to use this method:
1) Transfer (Move, not copy) your contacts (from your old phone) to sim card
2) Than at your WM device, move your contacts from sim card to your phone's memory and delete the contacts in your sim card.
3) Keep doing that till your contacts have all been transferred to your phone.
To backup, you can use Google Sync.
Cheers and Best Of Luck.
I remember my days doing that, the best way is to use Mobiledit, which I have been using since 2005, but now I just use Google Sync.
hi im running a 2.2 rom Froyd right now on my hero and a friend of mine with a Nexus one 2.2 was stressing that he couldnt copy his contacts onto his SIM card, so i checked my hero also cas i could have sworn i saw that option on my 2.1 sense rom before but on 2.2 it appears missing.
So is there any hacks/apps that enable contacts 2 Sim card as this would be very useful
thanks guys
There might be an app for this?
I've never liked sim contacts on android, and always discourage them.

No no i mean i want to copy my contacts BACK to my sim card so i can use them again on another phone --
if im using froyd i import my sim contacts onto the phone - i was asking how to import them back to the sim card as i have new contacts that i dont like to loose when either reflashing or changing phone
a nokia 3310 offers this feature LOL (No i dont want to use a 3310) lol
No, I 100% understand what you want to do.
Use the market to search for "contacts to sim", and you'll see apps (many free) like Copy to SIM Card, Contact2SIM etc.
Give one of them a go
thanks Pulser , Contact2SIM worked like a gem
Or just sync your phone contacts to your Google account so you can always access them on any device or computer.

True, and that's what I normally recommend, but the OP was after a way to then put the SIM into his other phone and use it.
So in that case, Contacts to SIM is the best way
My HTC Touch 3G can't read SD Cards.
The phone is dying.
Before I do a Hard Reset, I want to backup my Contacts and Messages.
But to backup contacts I synchronize with Google account (Active Sync). Since I do not have an SD Card, I've insufficient memory to perform the task ()
For messages, i use Mirosoft My Phone app. The app stucks and i can't get synced.
How can I backup manually this two types of data?
I don't have Outlook, and I will not install it!!

Try uploading to Microsoft My Phone one thing at the time, first contacts then messages.
By the way are you using any winmo 6.5 in portuguese? i cant seem to find any.
same my phone honestly never read any cards other than my bank card
I bought the phone last night and already spent 5 unsuccessful hours trying to connect to my PC, have it recognized, and sync contacts/email. All I get are error messages.
1. Anyone want to tell me why there is no software available to download on the phone's product page - samsung.com/us/support/do...SGH-T959ZKATMB ? I tried Kies Mini (update), that works fine. It would be freaking nice to put the main Kies app there.....unless of course it's not supported?
2. I downloaded Kies 2.0 from somewhere else on Samsung's website. Installed drivers, which initially failed (it pointed to my Netgear Wireless Router for some reason - WTF DOES THE PHONE HAVE TO DO WITH M ROUTER), I had to enable Windows Update, and then it was a success. I connect my phone via USB, the only 3 options I have are Kies (firmware update), Media Player, Mass Storage. There is no option just for the normal Kies. So I select Kies (firmware update), and Kies tells me "Kies 2.0 does not support my device".
I've done a lot of Googling and I'm just frustrated now. I unmounted, and removed the 2GB Samsung SD Card (default) already. What the hell else do I have to do now?
I've had mine for 6 mobths and only connected once. Good luck buddy I'm interested in responses.

How did you buy the phone without data? Assuming you didn't buy it from tmo? If you have the contacts on another phone you can take it up to your local tmobile store, ask if they can transfer everything with the cellebrite if they have one, I think every store does.
what format are your contacts in? You can copy them to your sim card and move them over. Contacts has an import from sd card feature. Also, google contacts will sync to the phone, but my google contacts are so cluttered from years of gmail I don't use it. There are apps for email, but the gmail one is good enough for me

Kies is terrible, and the cause of a lot of issues.
Could you explain what it is that you need? If it's just contacts, use google contacts so it syncs automagically.
If you do not have data, use wifi.

I bought it off Craigslist (like eBay). I'm using Mobilicity in Canada.

I have all my contacts in my Nokia OVI Suite backup. I made the mistake of not copying all my contacts to my SIM card before selling that Nokia phone.

Yes, I can see. Samsung software is terrible in general. I have no luck with Samsung....no luck at all.
What I need right now is some way to import all my contacts into the phone. It looks like I'll have to manually input all the contacts whichever path I choose...I'd like to use Outlook 2007, but gmail may be my only option...I have a gmail account but I only use it to forward my ISP emails there...
Aside from contact synchronization, I would have also liked to use Kies for music/video/applications as well but I guess I'm SOL now. What do you guys recommend? I don't have data but I have WIFI at home.
If you have Wifi connection them i will suggest android manager a free product. I am using it for last 3 months as Kies alternative.

Android manager is the best bet also, if you go to the TMO or some store that carries a nokia phone they are usually helpful about copying contacts from one format to another... as long as you have them on a sd card. You may need to bribe them with a chocolate chip cookie .....

THAT I can help with. Load it to your Windows Contacts and then export it to vCard and then put that on your Vibrant (if it connects but without Kies, I think you should at least be able to use it as a drive, or just remove the microSD, put that in the SD adapter and put that in your computer and then save it to there there) Import the file into your contacts after getting it on your Vibrant some how.

In contacts, go to settings and import contacts from SD, select the vCard

Kies - Vibrant
I use Kies version 1.5.3.1009_82 successfully to sync between my Vibrant and Outlook. There are other versions available, but the newer ones have not proven to work for me. That said, I've not yet used Kies 2.0, so anyone having experience with that version and US Galaxy phones, please comment.
Good luck,

Worked for me, thanks. Don't like how the PC Software imports all my contacts from GMAIL though...arghh
Anyone know if we can somehow set up POP3 with our ISP emails for Android? I don't think I'll be making the transition to public email anytime soon..

Set it so it only shows contacts with phone numbers in the contact book.

You can try a manual set up once you put the account name and password into Android's email client and then follow the ISP's instructions for normal mail set up, relatively.

I've never had a problem with Kies... I updated at one point and lost all ability to connect. I uninstalled and reinstalled my old version; luckily I held on to the .exe I've never attempted to update again. I really have no reason to. Maybe there are just some compatibility issues with the newer versions of Kies.
I'm currently running v1.5.1.10074_45
Is there even a way to post that setep file on here? Maybe I could send email it to somebody that can post it on here?
Just a thought. I'm not really sure what the problem is either. -j
Kies - Vibrant
I'll be happy to send a file of the Kies version that works for me for syncing between Vibrant and Outlook. I don't think we can post the attachment on this forum, so you'd need to contact me.
Good luck,
