hiteshkkk1 327 Report post Posted November 29, 2011 Hello Rimwebians... Time to contribute to Rimweb... I have found a very simple way to transfer your contacts from SE/Nokia/Iphone/Outlook to your google contacts account so that they could be synced to your new ANDROID Phone. Below is step by step tutorial of the same which I have specifically done from Nokia. Requirements.. 1. Nokia Backup file (NBU) which contains your contacts from your existing phone I wont go in how to create NBU backup since its very easy & we have been doing it since ages in Nokia PC Suite. 2. Sony Ericsson PC Companion 2.0. Download here. Though this has been created for SE, but you can use it for any phone. 3. Obviously google account. Steps. 1. Download & install SE PC Companion. 2. 3. .4. Here you can select if your old phone is SE or if you want to trf outlook contacts, then select 3rd option. For other, select 2nd option. .5 Here you can select Iphone or Nokia. For others, it will just use outlook contacts. I have not tried iphone as I dont have its backup. .6. .7. Here, it will list all nokia backups which are present in PC. You can select whichever you want. Also note, if your NBU file is in some other path, it wont show it here. You need to place it in content copier folder only. Next, select if you wish to add outlook contacts too. .8. Verify your contacts are ok or not.. .9. Put your google login details here.. .10. Here you can choose to add to your existing google contacts or replace them. . Thats it.... You are done.. Your all the contacts will be transferred to your google account & then you can use them seamlessly with your android phone. I understand that you can use google sync too but, setting google sync in nokia is pain in a**... Also, you need data for the same on your old phone. I found this utility to be simplest of all & very fast as well as perfect. Hope this tutorial helps our community... 11 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

digitalnirvana 646 Report post Posted November 29, 2011 Good work, Google has a serious problem in accepting direct .csv files because the fields defined in it's format do not align to how nokia pc suite or lg pc sync export. If they fixed it then every phone user could simply export contacts in .csv format and upload in GMail contacts then sync. Right now it needs manually modifying the .csv field columns.

KumaarShah 143 Report post Posted November 29, 2011 ^^^ I saved the csv file as dos instead of windows and all my contacts were accepted seamlessly. This was posted somewhere here a few days back. It worked flawlessly. Try it out, it may work well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
