how to save contact to sim on omnia 7 , pls ?
I don't think it's possible. Contacts on WP7 don't really related to the SIM card. Note that you don't have the option to view SIM contacts, but only import them.
so , how to backup contacts ?
Didn't they already back up on your Live/Hotmail account?
They must be already backed up on your Live/Hotmail account as foxbart121 already said.
U can use the Outlook Hotmail connector to bring them to outlook.
thank-you all , i found them on windows live .

Hi all. I have an Artemis. I want to copy my phone contacts from Nokia E50 to it. I tried from nokia to send all contacts at once via bluetooth, but nothing. If i send contacts one by one, it works. The problem is that i have 600 contacts and probably i'll get old moving them one by one. Is there an automatic procedure?
Hi, I know how frustrated you would be at this moment but please avoid double postings.
Why don't you first sync your nokia with the pc using the nokia sync program, and then sync your Artemis with the same pc? That is the surest way to have the same set of info on both devices.
the problem is that i don't use outlook. i have it, but active sync does't syncronize my contacts. From nokia, I uploaded all contact to outlook, but i can't syncronyze the ppc

Have you put any effort at investigating why it doesnt sync?

I think another way is to copy all contacts in E50 to SIM card and put it into your Artemis. Then you can use Artemis's SIM manager to copy all SIM contacts to your phone. Hope this helps.

Unfortunately the sim may be good only for 250 entries, with the entry name truncated to 13 characters

Chances are since he doesn't normally use Outlook, then it isn't check to synchronize with it in ActiveSync.
hello mate!
i had similar difficult this morning. Copying my 200+ contacts from O2 XDA Exec to Nokia 8800 Sirro.
This is how I worked it out. [Make sure, your phones are properly connected and synchronizing with PC properly before you go ahead with this].
First synchronize your XDA with outlook, making sure, that all your contacts are copied there. MS Activesync works just fine.
Next connect your Nokia phone to PC. Open up Nokia's Synchronization Software in PC Suite. Goes with the name of "Synchronize". Open it up, and follow the directions to Restore contacts from Outlook to your phone [follow directions: PC to Phone].
I successfully moved/copied my contacts and calendar reminders from XDA Exec to Nokia 8800.
One point to be noted. A couple of my contacts on XDA had Images embedded with them. [You know where u put your girlfriend's pics] When these contacts got restored, they still had images with them. But names changed to unnamed. Had to rename them once manually. I couldnt work out the reason for this, probably something that Outlooks does not support properly.
Hope this helps.
Hey all,
Someone stole my Dash =( and now I'm probably going to get the Android - I was wondering how I could recover my contacts... I've got Vista, so it syncs via device center, and I know I did have them syncing.
I thought they would be in my Outlook address book, but none are there; nor in my Windows Mail contacts.
Did something go horribly wrong? Or is there way to find them?
Thanks
Y don't you copy them to Sim card?
I'm sure on the Dream, you'll be able to transfer contacts from sim.
My phone was stolen... I don't have it or the SIM card any more.
There syncing on the Outlook.If they where not there then you have to get them one by one
I have my old sim and I want to put the contacts from that sim on to my new Desire. I had to have a new sim and number for it so want to add the contacts from the old sim. I wondered what the best way was. Any help greatly appreciated......
I know it's laborious but you could copy your old contacts into your Gmail contact list, then they'll automatically be sync'd with the device. It'll be less of a ball-ache than having to key them in on the device.
I was wondering the same but seeing as hand problems going from SE sim contacts to Samsung HD contacts (loads more field options) then spent time having to clean up all the contacts.
So this time i was able to first export all my contacts to VCF files then just joined them up into one big VCF file split by GMAIL groups and they just synced straight to the handset as i was doing it.
Plus its a lot easier to edit the contacts via GMAIL than on the phone.

Just stick your old SIM into the Desire and 'Import all contacts from SIM to phone'. This will transfer all your old SIM contacts to the phone itself. If you want these contacts in the new SIM (not necessary) then stick in the new SIM and transfer the contacts (now on the phone) to your new SIM.
If I'm not mistaken, I believe contacts saved on SIMs do not support multiple entries/fields or is quite limited.
If you want to transfer all your data 'as it is' (or as close as possible) then you need your old phone and transfer via a common software - MS Outlook for example.
When I bought me Focus the ATT rep installed a new sim card. The rep didn’t copy all my contacts from my 2 year old Fuze running Winmo 6.5. I haven’t seen anything in Zune to copy my contacts from Outlook to the Focus. I have copied through activsync all my contacts from the Fuze to Outlook but can’t find a method to know get the outlook contacts on my Focus sim. Thanks for any suggestions.

Windows Phone 7 does not currently sync directly with your desktop Outlook client (via USB, or any other directly connected method). The phone was designed to sync with cloud-based services, which means that it ties into your Windows Live ID (Hotmail contacts), or Exchange ActiveSync accounts (such as Gmail).
A workaround would be to use the Outlook Connector to add your Windows Live Hotmail account to Outlook, and then copy your contacts from your Outlook file to your Hotmail account.
The phone automatically syncs Email, Calendar, and Contact information from your Windows Live ID.
Please try a search next time, as this question and information on this topic is everywhere.

So far, no.
Ok here's the story
saved contacts to gmail account
needed to return phone for repairs
exported contacts from gmail to SIM card
put SIM card in loaner phone
added new numbers to SIM card from loaner phone
got back real phone and inserted SIM card
imported contacts from gmail AND SIM card
Now all (but the newest) contacts appear twice What's the easiest way to fix them? Do I need to do all one at a time?
In contacts set which number or.places to show (gmail,sim etc)
Sent from my LT15i using XDA App
Delete all contacts and then just import from either gmail or sim, since they are identical.
You can also check whether your contacts weren't doubled on your Google account (via PC is most comfortable). If so - there is a tool to remove all doubled records offered directly inside your contacts list in the account.
Choosing the source of contacts to show as described above by colleagues will help surely as well. Regards.

Just download MyPhoneExplorer from market and for PC and have full access to your phone.MyPhoneExplorer was initially made for SonyEricsson phones but then expanded with android devices from all brands with WiFi support.
Try it ...
