Homer Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 alright, so for those who may know more about cellphones than i do...is there a way to transfer everything from one cellphone to the next. i mean in particular my phonebook. i remember that the verizon guys could hook things up and transfer it all over for me before, but now that everything is more self sufficient, is there a way i can do that for myself? or am i stuck to spending a week to transfer my phonebook, if i get a new phone, one number at a time?

Kccitystar Posted February 3, 2007 Share Posted February 3, 2007 If there is a SIM card in the phone, I believe you are able to copy your contacts from the phone memory to the SIM memory and use the SIM on a new phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klesko174 Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 or you can try on your service provider's website...i have verizon and they have a thing on their website set up so you can save your contacts from your phone to their site and then transfer them to another phone...i don't know which provider you have but more than likely they'll have something set up so you can do that.

angryrat Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 im pretty sure the last time i did this, Verizon wanted to charge $10 for the service. You shouldn't be surprised, they charge you for everything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted February 8, 2007 Author Share Posted February 8, 2007 oh. bastards! well there's gotta be a free way to do it. i know they used to do it when i went to the store to get a new phone. i just figured there had to be some software on the net to do it yourself by now.

fenway389 Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 You need to get a usb cable for your phone (to hook up to your computer) and get software that lets you save and transfer your contacts to your comp. Your service provider might have this software for free. If not try a program called BitPim. Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
