How can i copy all my contacts to a new sim? - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading

Hi i am trying to copy all contacts at once to my new sim card. I know i can copy them one by one, but that cannot be the best way. I have done a search but the only thing I found refered to using Ctrl C but I cannot find Ctrl Does anyone have any more ideas ? Regards, John

you can use sim manager to copy all you contacts to sim card and vice versa

Thats what i thought but there is no way to copy from phone to sim card in sim manager

use the attached file and it will allow you to copy your contacts to any sim card

This is going to sound realy lame but I cannot get it to work. I open up contacte then open your sim manager from menu then click contacts to sim and a view with no contacts apears, I click save & it says that 0 contacts have been saved. I have tried all sorts of permutations with opening one first & then the next with no success. What am I doing wrong

no you are not doing anything wrong, all you need to do is intall prog on your device(not on memory card), reset you uni, start sim manager(dont need to open contacts), click on menu, select contacts to sim,it will give to all contact in your uni, select all either by clicking in the box next to it or select all from menu and save, it will save these
contacts to your sim.i am using version 6.10 so you can give it a try instead of 6.25

Finaly sorted it out. My main Universal uses WM5 & I could not get it to work in that , so I put my sim card into my second Universal & used the sim manager in that. Straight away all the contacts apeared so I pressed copy & they went onto the sim card. Strange eh, thanks for all the help, regards john

It was my pleasure

I got into weird problem with my device. I cannot delete contacts from my phonebook. It seem that these are the contacts from my previous sim card that got somehow copied into the device, but now without the sim the are still there with "delete contact" menu item inactive. when I tried to insert another sim card, I got all the contacts from the second card together with the old contacts again in the phonebook, and again I cannot delete them...
How can I delete these contacts? the device somehow caches everything from the sim...

Contacts Backup\Restore

Hi All,
I'm trying to move my contacts from my HTC P4350 (Herald) to the Excalibur
i'm using xml contacts backup to backup and restore them on herald but its not supported on excalibur , is there any other way to copy them?
Thanks.
just activesync the herald, save them to Outlook, and then restore to the Excalibur? Thats the easiest way
Also, you could save to the sim card, and then move or copy them. Personally I leave them on the sim at all time (updating every once in a while) and set the phone to not show sim contacts. Then, copy em all to the phone. Works great in case of an emergency hard reset
i use this software, to register use 00000 with anyone name
sorry for my english

Sim Contacts

Alright guys,
Thanks to those who are taking the time to read this.
For some reason when I try to copy my PHONE CONTACTS to my SIM CONTACTS, using Sim Manager, it won't copy it. I'll go through the motions and it still won't copy to the SIM Card. Any help is appreciated.
Thank You
?
how many contacts do you have sim memory could be full
Also are you running the SIM manager that came with the 6.1 rom?
Yes, I am running the SIM Manager that came with Kavana's 6.1
Are you sure that when you select to copy you check all the names that you want to copy also make sure its 250 contracts or less as the sim card is only able to hold 250 contacts.

copy contacts from phone to sim card

hi
i have just started using android on my Desire, but i cant find out how to copy contacts onto my sim card in case i want to use a different phone,
i intially had my contacts on my sim so i copied them on to the phone but i had a few problems where it would show duplicates even though it was set to show only on phone/sim (cant remeber which one it was)/ some places it would only show phone ones.
i copied them onto the phone then deleted them from sim, no i want them back lol.
anyone know a way ?
Grab Contact2Sim from the market.
I don't understand
Please explain further

Grab = Download & Install
Contact2Sim = App
from the market = from the Android App market
you could also just export all contacts and then import them on your Sim via the menu in the phone I guess (correct me if I am wrong, not using Sim Card contacts, only GMAIL sync)
i remembered when i was using the original froyo i was able to save contacts into my sim, but ever since i used cyanogenmod 7, there's no such function anymore.
contact2sim does not allow single contact management. any other help?
thnx , it worked

u can go in the contacts, press the option buttion, choose more, select "settings"
In the first option "save new contacts to" --- Choose"SIM" and u can directly save contacts to the SIM card :good:
