I am trying to send all my contacts from my Sony Ericsson W350i to my
new Samsung Tocco Lite S5230. I enable bluetooth on the Tocco, and then
go to the advanced phonebook options on my Sony Ericsson W350i and
select Send All Contacts by bluetooth.

It transfers for a while and the Samsung Tocco goes very slow for a few
minutes. Then it says all contacts received, but when I look in the
phonebook, only the first 200 contacts are there. That is less than half
of my contacts. Is there any way to send all of my contacts via
Bluetooth?

Thanks in advance

The first thing you need to determine is whether the contacts are stored
in the memory of your Samsung Phone, or in the actual SIM card itself
(or a little of both). Most phones have a function that lets you copy
all the contacts from your phone’s memory on to the SIM card. If you are
able to find this on your Samsung phone, then you can copy ALL the
contacts on your phone’s memory on to the SIM card so they are in a
centralized location.

Once you have all the contacts on your SIM card, you can then insert it
in your iPhone and do the reverse, which is to copy from SIM card to
Cell Phone.

Another option is to download Samsung’s PC Studio software for free and
backup the contacts to your PC. You can then insert your iPhone’s SIM
card into a Samsung phone and do a RESTORE.

You can also go to eBay and do a search for a SIM card reader/writer
that sell for under $10. This is a nice hardware tool that provides more
flexibility and will also do the trick

Thanks very much for this.

The contacts are currently stored on the phone memory of the Sony
Ericsson W350i. There are around 500 of them and thus too many to fit on
the sim card. I want to copy them to the phone memory of the Samsung
S5230 handset. I do not have an iPhone and never mentioned it in the
initial post.

I wanted to know why the Copy all contacts via bluetooth option on my
Sony Ericsson W350i only seemed to copy for the first 200 messages.

Thanks for your help.
