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.

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

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?
Hello,
Could anyone help me? I keep getting a SIM card memory is full message although I have removed all of my contacts from there as well as deleted all of the messages. Also, how could I get my emails to be stored in the SD card? Just one more question, Everytime I try to access the phone stttings, I get a "phone not ready, retry in 15 seconds". does anyone know what this is about???
Looks like your SIM card is defect. If possible try if your SIM card works on an other phone properly.

No problems
I have tried to use my SIM card in another phone and it worked just fine. Could it be that it is automatically storing all of the emails and messages into the SIM card? How could i configure the phone to store those things into the Storage card instead???

Can i flash without my sim card in the phone and then put it back in and have my contacts on a new ROM? because im sick of redoing my contacts
it shouldnt erase your contacts thats on your sim....i think you have your contacts saved on the phone...not the same.
use sim manager to copy all contacts to sim and you can flash while having the sim card in as well.
but to be on the safe side try to pull it out before flashing and just use sim manager again to transfer contacts from sim back to the phone.

Sure dude sim card has nothing to do with flashing. Save all your contacts to sim first and keep it in the phone or take it out; doesn't matter

Try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299705 Works really well. You can do a backup and save it to your SD card or desktop, flash, and restore.
Hi, yesterday i rooted my HTC and flashed this ROM : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2674767
Everything seemed fine, looks cool, works pretty smooth but then i saw one problem. I cant import my contacts from sim card to phone. It says there are no contacts there. My question is can i export them thru adb or sth to my sd card and then load the file? I've read that exporting from sdcard works fine, but i dont want to flash it back to stock rom. Is there any way to do this ? Perhaps put sim card and sdcard to another phone and export it from there ?
Thanks in advance
Yup, many non stick ROMs won't read sim properly so either import from SD or link to Google account so you never have to worry again
