Transfering WM2003se contacts to WM2005 ....

Hi there you guys, I need some serious help here. Has anyone managed to copy his contacts from wm2003se to wm2005 after upgrading it to the latests release by BUZZ.... Hey BUZZ THANKS !!!!
Problem is that xBackup does not work properly under wm2005. I use xBackup and Sprite Backup to backup my contacts and restore them at a later time. But now I'm stuck, how the hell am I gonna copy my old contacts from the wm2003se to the new wm2005 without using xBackup or Sprite Backup. Any suggestions would help and your quick responce would be highly appreciated. Thanks.

dyuring the time you using the wm03 se)i think to make easy for you is first have a conection between the outlook on your pc and ppc then when you do find out tha all your contacts (beside tasks and calender) have been sync then you will see all your infos transfert to outlook ( check it out first) once that done perfectly,
then you can install the wm05 and syn again all you infos will be back again.
remember dont delete the infos of your membership with the activesyn of the older nickname that you used before,.
i hope it will work out very well with u.

Thanks alot for taking your time in explaining how this works. I will give it a try and I'll see what happens. Thanks again. Cheers.

Ummm...what is this doing in the Blue Angel forum?

WM2003 > WM6 contacts etc problems ?

WM2003 > WM6 contacts etc problems ?
Hey ,
I just loaded WM6 on my o2 xdaIIs or Blue anger as you say,
now i have several issues in front of me:
1. the backup file ( 2 files individually created on WM 2003) from both " spb and x backup (inbuilt in WM 2003) " won't restore any thing i.e. contacts,Apps, notes anything on my new WM6.
i tried restooring from both the files but to no avail.
any solution how to get my contacts back.
Note: i didn't sync with my PC, so no contacts loading from syncing with pc
2. there's no send via bluetooth option in file explorer.
3. when dialing no.s from keypad of BA, the no functionality won't happen. i.e. only alphabets appear, but in WM2003 no.s did appear.

i guess you haven't really completed the upgrade to wm6. you should do the reset + no/yes/yes + mail button routine.

I already did the same, but the problem is from the beginning, is there any way i can get my contacts from the backup files back ???
and what about the keys issue !!! and bluetooth funda !

the only way is to switch back to wm2003 restore ur backup, sync ur contacts or save them on sim than put wm6 again get ur contact back.

Hi,
now i want to downgrade to WM2003,
but going to the wiki gets me confused, b'coz of the several ROM's there.
now the thing is i have O2 xda IIS, India, and i have the official O2 asia WM2003SE ROM downloaded from the website of O2, that has been made for my Mobile only, but now as i have WM6 and i guess while upgrading to WM6, i deleted the contry code etc...., so now the O2 ROM is not detecting my Mobile,
can anybody help me out here !!!

DO THIS
1. extract the file given below.
2. put the rom file which u hv downloaded from the o2 site (file=nk.nba) in the same folder where above files were extracted.
3. put ur pda in boot loader by holding Pwr+camera+rec+reset.
4. screen shows bootloader serial.
5. run maupgradeutilitynoid.exe (it will skip country id)
6. do a update by clicking next next and so on

I have something like this pb on my Qtek 9090. But i think after upgrade the contacts database is crashed cause any CM application terminates immediately after being launched:
NullReferenceException.

Transferring contacts from Vario > Vario III

What's the best way of transferring my contacts from my MDA Vario to my new MDA Vario III. It looks like my old one has them stored on the phone rather than the SUM.
I tried Activesync but this said I don't have Outlook installed for the Vario III.
How have you guys done it ?
Vario III rocks

search for pim.vol -its like that on my uni - might be the same...

Easist way? Download the Outlook trial version, install, sync both phones, do a system restore.

I use an app called EasyHelper

Easy to use and works

Not if you ask me.....why don't you just use DotFred's PPCPIMbackup utility (Posted HERE) to backup the contacts (and anything else), copy the backup file to your desktop PC via ActiveSync, then copy onto the new device and re-run PPCPIMbackup to restore it all again....
Now, THAT'S the easiest way!!!!
Mark.

Or you can use the 15 day trial version of Jeyo Mobile Extender. I used this to transfer my texts and call history from my Vario to my Vario III.

pls help: restore pim.vol

hiho,
i need your help. it looks like that my pim.vol is corrupt.
i allways backuped my contacts, while i make a copy of the /pim.vol to my /speicherkarte/pim.vol. and restore it the other way. works like a charm (no active sync ...)
now i downgrade from win 6.5 to win 6.1 and i copied my pim.vol back to / , but i can't see my contacts.
is there a program where i can extract/read or something else a pim.vol file?

edit: i install win 6.5 again to read the pim.vol but same :-( no contacts

Could try pim backup on phone, would be a better way to back up in future

transferring contacts from xperia x1i to laptop without using active sync

hi m a proud owner of xperia x1i i'v the following problems:-
1) i've lost the original active sync cd which came bundled with the phone dur to which i'm not able to connect my xperia to my laptop via active sync or windows mobile device centre.
2) i flash roms regularly, so i need to save my contacts in my laptop or make a back up of my contacts.
pz help me out...thanx in advance...

you can download active sync at microsoft.com just google it , otherwise copy all contacts to sim card

There are several solutions for your problem: Backup software like SPB Backup, SK Tools... They create self extracting backup files or backup files that can be restored using the corresponding program (in case of SK Tools). Another possibility is to use a software that exports your contacts to a xml file. And of course you can download active synch from the MS website.

you can use PIM manager. unlike spb backup, this is a freeware, and i have been using it for years now. below is the download link
