| 1324761 | 2013-01-24 22:49:00 | Just got the girlfriend a new HTC One-V, very happy to be ditching the iPhone. I've been looking around on how to move contacts/messages to the new phone, and it doesn't look like something that can be done without some third party software. I've come across this (www.backuptrans.com)program, which looks OK, but it doesn't seem to do contacts. (Why on earth Apple doesn't let contacts be stored on the SIM is truly beyond me.) Has anyone done this before, or has some knowledge on the subject? Thanks. :) |

Apple on the other hand :rolleyes: |

| 1324765 | 2013-01-25 01:25:00 | I don't know why anyone would store contacts on a smart phone full stop when there are so many good cloud solutions. Be it GMail/Hotmail/MS Exchange, makes life so much easier when changing phones. | Alex B (15479) | ||
| 1324766 | 2013-01-25 02:24:00 | Thanks for the suggestions everyone, and Dave, you are bang on there. I just came across this for moving the contacts... www.digitaltrends.com Seems almost too easy? |
