backup restore sim card ( not involving contacts ) - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General

Hi.
My wifes got a new phone and she's moved from orange to o2. The only problem is all her contacts are on the orange sim card. Does anyone know of any way of copying all the contacts from one sim to another using my BA without affecting my contacts. Something like
-remove my sim card
-insert wifeys orange card
-run magic software package to backup all contacts to <some_format>
-remove orange card and insert new blank o2 card.
-restore contact from <some_format> to new card.
I really want to avoid using 'save to contacts' from simm manager as I don't want lots of hairdressers etc in my contacts
Thanks in advance
Jeff

Dump Sim - Please Respond To This One

Quick Question
I just recently got the 8528 and it came with the phone, headphones (alhto my cat chewed them), disc, and the new sim card.
My old sim card is full of phone numbers. (I like keeping them on the sim card and not the phone)
Cingular said I needed to use the new sim card for 3g.
I was going to by a usb sim flasher so I could transfer my number over to my new one but I was wondering:
Is there any program for or on the phone that will allow me to dump my sim card and then put it on my new one? If not I'll buy the usb flasher but I was hoping there was...
Thanks all,
nomb
At least on a decent TyTN there is a "SIM Manager" which copies them to the PDA and vice versa. Have you tried it?
Thats what I'm using now just for the contacts, I was hopeing to be able to copy everything over at once. Like a backup -> restore type operation.
why dont you copy everything onto the device, then insert the new sim card and copy everything back to the card?

Sim card contacts

I've upgraded my P3600 to WM6 (thanks to Lasagna). With WM5 I could see all the contacts, both stored in the phone and in the SIM Card. With WM6 I can only see the contacts i the phone but not the one onthe SIM Card.
How can I find them without copying them in the phone memory?
Thanks

How to save text message and contacts in SD

Is there anyone can help me how to configure text message so i can save text message and contact in my SD or my UIM Card ?
ok, please don't tell me, you really have a UIM card, meaning, that you are on a CDMA network, then the entire other thread you opened was redundant, BECAUSE:
cdma devices of the general shape and outlooks of the blueangel are called harrier, meaning they cannot be upgraded with wm6 anyways.
but to come to your actual question. there is no way to store your contacts or sms on the sd card directly. they need to be stored in the phone. if however you are planning on making backup copies of your pim data to the sd card, to not lose the data in case of a hard reset, download -=PIM backup by DotFred=- and put the app on your sd card and make backups to the sd card, that way you always have all your data save in case you somehow should lose the device's storage's contents.

Contacts TO sim card

Just got a replacement sim card and want to put all my phone contacts onto it. The three options I see under Import/Export are:
Import from sim card
import from sd card
export to sd card
If I select any of them, I only have the options to create account under either Google or Phone. How do I get these onto the sim card?
contact2sim (free) on the market did the job for me simon.
You may have to reboot the phone once they've been copied over to the Sim-card before you can see them but it works well.

Contacts from SIM card not showing

I updated Note 4(SM-N910P) to marshmallow and I cant access my contacts on my SIM card. Its really strange the network and data works but cant access my contacts. I can't see the SIM card whenever I try to save a contact, so I only have to save on the device or my gmail account. I have tried other SIM cards and they have the same problem. The network works alright but I just cant have access to the contacts on them. Please help
