transferring phonebook to new phones

| P.Schuman 2007-05-19, 3:33 pm |
| how do folks handle tranferring an ever growing & important phonebook
to a new phone ??
Over the years, I've always managed to purchase
a vendor data cable + vendor software to download to a PC
and then upload to a new phone - within the vendor family of phones.
But this approach doesn't seem to be viable for a lot of phones....
so - how do you backup, download, or transfer you phone's important data ??

I make sure I only buy phones that allow me to SYNC with Microsoft's
Outlook (e.g., Nokia smartphones [e.g., 3600, 6620 or Crackberries)

I routinely SYNC and manage my contact on Outlook. When the new phone
arrives, I make sure my contact/calendar is SYNCed with the PC. I
then plug in the new phone and shoot the contents from the PC to the
new phone.

The ZYB solution is free and extremely easy. After one is done
transferring, one could always delete the data and even close the
account. For myself, I'm not worried about the security of the data
since virtually all of the info can already be found in public
phonebooks. It's not exactly a Janus List.

Maybe, but phonebooks are just lists. Your contacts and numbers are all
related to you in some fashion. Knowledge is power.

True indeed but my life is an open book anyway. Digging into my
phonebook would give boredom a whole new meaning and, while I wouldn't
want to post it publicly, ZYB and the offerings from carriers and
manufacturers seem pretty low risk.

With Cingular (at&t) gsm it's pretty simple. Copy all your contacts
to the SIM card from the old phone (SIM needn't even be activated
still), pop sim in new phone. Done.
If the new phone came with a new SIM, then copy contacts from the old
SIM card to the phone, pop in new sim card, and decide if you want to
copy from phone to SIM or not, and be on your merry way.

I pop into the Alltel store and ask one of the nice guys to save it to a
floppy they give me for free. If I buy a new phone, they always plug both
phones into a snake and transfer the phonebook with floppy copy for safe
storage as part of the sale....

Did you guys know the American landline companies all store all your
personal information with some company in ISRAEL?....OUT OF REACH of the
Federal Government's laws protecting it?
There was a YouTube documentary from some TV network about it, showing
this unsecured building that has the phone records of the entire USA just
sitting there.....and probably for sale for the right price.....
The billing information and all are stored there so they can easily see
who you called and who called you, too. Not sure if cellular carriers
store their stuff there, too. It's a HUGE operation....

If true, Isreal is probably one of the safest places but for what
purpose? Telcos are not required to keep call call records for more than
90 days and your account info is already on their servers locally.

No, as long as you have a working WAP access on your mobile, you should be able
to use the service, GPRS just makes the service a lot faster to use.

Unless their site is dripping with ads that are getting eyeballs, one
has to wonder the business plan of the site. And just because the
privacy policy or terms of use say one thing today, these have a pesky
way of meandering when someone else purchases the company and wants to
leverage the information assets of the company to make a profit.
It'd be something I'd be very careful with certainly because you're
handing over a notion of all your friends to a third party, and it
comes down to trust.

Not far fetched, at all. Your entire phone history is stored, for
whatever purpose, in a foreign country you have no control over,
whatsoever. The fact that it is in one of the combative Middle Eastern
countries, who as we are supposed to forget, attacked our Navy ship
SEVERAL TIMES, and killed 132 American sailors flying the largest US flag
the ship carried while trying to conceal committing genocide on Egyptians
during their 1967 war against their neighbors. In case you've been
brainwashed, that ship was the USS Liberty. 3 guys I went to ET School
with died in the attack. It could have just as well have been me.
I cannot help think the entire US phone database is stored in a country
run by these same wonderful friends of America, immediately accessible to
the Israeli Mossad secret police, who can use this information for
whatever purposes the State of Israel deems "necessary" to keep the
American Tax Dollars pouring in to fund such wonderful enterprises as
Tadiran, creating AWACs planes to sell to our enemies.
The State of Israel has an over 50 year history of spying on America,
very well documented.
As you can see, my paranoid schitzophrenia is well fed by past historical
facts and the current state of international affairs that state is well
involved in helping to create.

I tend to stay with Kyocera phones, mostly because I like their
feature set. So all I have to do is buy a new cable when I get a new
phone and the same software (Kyocera Phone Desktop) will sync my
contact list and calendar.

This will not work if you have multiple phone numbers on one or more
contacts. The sim will only store one phone number per contact.

I sync on a continuous basis with Outlook.
I prefer the feature set of Sony Ericsson. The SE phones we have
bought lately all come with an Outlook Sync program on a mini-CD. I
recently switced my personal phone from a Nokia (TDMA) to an LG 350
(Sprint), so I had to buy Datapilot to sync the LG. It absolutely
stinks compared to Intellisync that comes with Sony Ericsson phones,
but there is no Intellisync for the LG 350.

Not true for all phone.
Did it last week from a Nokia and they copied to the sim card as
Entry Name
Entry Name1
Entry Name2
Entry Name3

Via Bluetooth, isn't that one contact at a time?

Bluetooth is a connection method, just like a USB cable. Whether it
transfers one or all contacts is up to the software you use. I sync my
current PPC phone, and used to sync my last phone, a Nokia 3650, via BT
with Outlook on my desktop.

I was thinking of what one gets with the standard Windows XP SP2
installation. I should have said "Via Bluetooth OBEX".
Are you adding any additional programs?
I have used MPT in the past for sync with Outlook, and Lotus Notes, and
just saving data to the MPT .mdb database.
MPT allows multiple profiles, and I have used that to copy contacts
from old phones to new, do some sharing of contacts, and key in contact
information the PC instead of the phone.

Nokia offers free backup/transfer software (Nokia Phone Suite) and
Windows Mobile phones include Microsoft Activesync to sync with Outlook.

I've always used Nokias prior to getting into Windows Mobile phones. The
idea of being soaked an extra $30 for backup software is strange to me,
but I guess it's always been that way with Motorolas?

| Yes, I have actually used Blue Soliel - for one frustrating week until I
was able to convert the dongle to work with the Widcomm stack. If I
hadn't I couldn't have a valid opinion on it. I found Blue Soliel to be
much more difficult to work with than the Widcomm/Broadcomm stack.
Apparently others agree as the price for a dongle with the Widcomm stack
is usually a few dollars more. If you're happy with Blue Soleil then
that's good for you. Have you ever used the Widcomm stack? If not,
rather than tell you to "shutup" I'll just suggest you try it and see
for yourself. If you have tried it and didn't like the extremely easy
"My Bluetooth Places" interface please tell us what you found to be
better in Blue Soleil.

stack and had a lot of trouble connecting my stereo headset and
cellphone (connected as a DUN) at the same time (the dongle is version
2.0). I purchased another BT adaptor (version 2.0) that came with Blue

for the new dongle/SW off eBay - good 'bang-for-the-buck' IMHO.
