New phone, can't trasnfer contacts... Motorola v360 to Samsung Blast

[Al Skierkiewicz]

The SIM card should allow you to store most of what you need. It won't let you transfer voice dialing as that is stored on phone memory. You didn't say which phone has the USB so I assume it is the Samsung. There is a cable and CD kit that is avaialbe for the Motorola phone that will synchronize to Microsoft Office and put all of your contact info on that which you can then transfer back to the Samsung phone. Software should be available on the Internet for most any operation if you search around. There is even sites that will give you methods of making your own cables and other hints.

The pen/paper method is probably what I'll end up doing, when I give up later tonight.

When I was at the store, I considered asking to transfer the contacts, but figured it couldn't be that hard... Maybe next time.


You are right, the SIM card SHOULD allow me to store most of what I need, and it does. The new phone just doesn't see any (useful) info on it. Both phones can connect via USB, the motorola is the one I have the cable for. I've been trying to avoid spending money when I can do it for free (even though the free way will likely end up being the pen/paper way). I've been searching for software to do it for me for awhile, but haven't found any free programs that can do it.


Well, you guys seem to be telling me what I thought you would tell me- I'll probably have to do it the hard way. Thanks for the help though!


UPDATE: Managed to borrow someone else's SIM card. Transferred through bluetooth , and everything works great!
