Im wanting to import a csv with the following values:
[Folder,Number,Name,Time,Text]
This is exported from Wavesecure as a CSV, due to wavesecure cant import SMS's properly (they are all out of order).
Thanks in advance
PS: I tried SMS Importer. But that crashs after 150 SMS's or so.... (ive got 4000 SMS's to import or so)
And also Athg2Sms i cant really get a proper syntax to make it work.

Hi all,
I need some help please. I received my TyTn II yesterday and now I need to shift all my data (contacts, tasks, sms, etc.) across to the TyTn II before selling my S710.
I know I can use Outlook syncing to get the contacts and tasks across, but can someone please confirm exactly what process I should use as I've previously had syncs wipe the data on my PC when connecting a fresh phone to try and get data onto it. I have already been using the S710 to sync with Outlook 2007 on this PC (ActiveSync 4.5).
Also, can someone please tell me how to get my texts (sms) onto the TyTn II from the S710? - I've got Sprite Backup 6 on the S710, but I don't know whether the "upgrade" backup file option will work between a WM6 Smartphone and a WM6 Professional device. I've actually tried to restore just the "personal databases" from an S710 backup onto my TyTn II but the SMS's don't show up, only call lists and contacts.
Any help and/or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
- Odie
Get PIMBackup. It's somewhere on the Forum here, and can backup your TXT messages fine!
Heck, I actually used it last week to copy 2600 SMS messages from my Nokia N80 (outputted to .csv) into my Kaiser...
It works great!
I don't actually think that DotFred's PPCPIMbackup - to give it its' real name - will work on a SmartPhone....as the name suggests, it's for "PPC" or Pocket PC devices.
You could ask the man himself - post in the thread in the Development & Hacking forum HERE, or visit his website DotFred.net.
Mark.
Thanks for the suggestions.
I think it might work if I can get my Vox SMS output as CSV, I think I've seen a program that does this. Then I can use PPCPIMbackup to import them into the Kaiser.
contacts, mail, agenda can be synch with outlook
for sms you can save them to SIM
Thanks for all of your replies.
As I had hoped, the contacts and tasks synced successfully from my laptop's Outlook 2007 (after getting the latest stuff synced from my S710)
Notes seem to have messed up in that my multi-line notes have been split into multiple single-line notes. I'm not too fussed about this as I didn't have that many notes anyway, but it's a little disappointing.
Now as for the SMS, I managed to get it done pretty painlessly using a fantastic program called Jeyo Mobile Companion (it runs on the PC rather than the device itself). It supports both WM Smartphone and WM Professional, and exports the SMS database as an XML file, which I then managed to import onto my Kaiser. Everything went smoothly, all items seem to be present and in the correct folders too. Fantastic!

CSV stand for Comma separated value and means that the value [in contact are Name, Surname, Number, etc...] are separated by the comma "," or other punctuation... Wikipedia This format can be open with Excel and convert to xls format...
Do you have your sms in csv format?? How can you import in the TYTN??
Thanks
Bye
I know waht csv is
I was asking for the csv format (the column order, wether or not text should be double quote enclosed) that PIMBackup is using for importing the sms.
I got them into a csv file using Float's Mobile Agent it should work for almost all Sony Ericsson mobiles.

I made a backup with "Binary backup" disable and PIMBackup made a .pib file that I opened with 7zip and I found a .csm file. I opened it with Notepad and I found this code for the csv:
Code:
Msg Id;Sender Name;Sender Address;Sender AddressType;Prefix;Subject;Body;BodyType;Folder;Account;Msg Class;Content Length;Msg Size;Msg Flags;Msg Status;Modify Time;Delivery Time;Recipient Nbr;Recipients;Attachment Nbr;Attachments
Now i will try to edit this csm with my csv info and try to restore... I hope thet it works...
I have a question about contact importation with iGO8.
I installed iGO on my tytn2 and none of my contact i had in my phone was imported.
But when i had a new contact and i launch iGO this last contact is imported automaticaly.
So my question is to know how can i do to import all the others which was on my phone before igo installation
Which version of Igo8 do you have? I use the newest release and mine Imports the contacts which I really don't like since I don't put people address in my contacts in case of theft of my phone I have a few Important celbs that would be pissed if there address got out.
i have iGO 8.0.0.41506
Any time you change the address of a give contact the geocoder will try to import the contact. The other way round, igo will not try to import any unchanged contacts.
What I do not know is if you need to change the address itself or it is enough to change any other field and just save it. You can simply try.
Hope this helps
I've exported my address book and now when I import it I get a parse error. I'm getting frustrated here.

Have you tried to import using gmail contacts? I have always used that.
I did see that when you open the contacts > menu > more > import/ export > import from SD card or Export to SD card.............searching for vcard

What are you exporting from? Vcard isn't as universal as it should be. You could try creating a contact on the phone, then export it - import on your pc and try to find out what is different.

I'm using the import/export feature built into the phone. I chalked it up to having 500 some odd contacts.

So you are trying to export contacts on the phone and re-import them - like the group/ringtone fix - making dupes on phone of the ones in google?
Someone on another forum, found that birthday's with no year caused a problem for google contacts. It could be something like this, but I don't know where to start looking.
Having same issue.
Captivate cannot read vcards it sends to itself through email
I created a new contact on my Captivate, sent namecard for the contact using email, sent the email to myself. After receiving the email on my phone, I clicked Open using Contacts. I then get an error:
Reading of vCard has failed ... I/O error.
WTF ? Crazy !!
I had some trouble trying to put contacts directly into the phone.
So, I just loaded them into the gmail website contacts from the PC.
Since then, no problems, and they stay synced up.
In any standard .vcf file, you should be able to open it with a text editor to eliminate corrupted entries. Just compare files that import to those that don't and you will figure out what is breaking import.
Good day folks!
Is there any app available for importing contacts saved in a CSV file?
I recently exported my contacts to Outlook using HTC sync prior to S-OFFing.
I had also used a crappy backup tool which completely failed to restore anything
(in case you wanto know the fauly app was Backup Master, stay away)
Well, now i have the contacts in a CSV file on my SD card and i want to import the contacts to my phone book.
Tried the import through Gmail option (which i am not very keen on doing.. for obvious reasons), but even having that as a last option does not hyelp as the 'import' button does not appear in my gmail account on the mobile.
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks
You could log into you gmail account on a pc, then import the contacts csv, then sync your phone contacts with your gmail account
Doing it through GMail would really be the best option
well, i did not wanto use google...
not sure if i want to voluntarily give up all my contacts...
though am quite certain they have it anyways
for anyone who may have this issue, this is what i did...
the contacts were saved in outlook...
i exported all the contacts in .vcf format to a directory on the SD card.
the stock contacts app provides an option to import contacts from memory card...
that's about it...
I am trying to export my contacts that are stored in the phones memory to a VCF file so that I can import them into a new phone. When I go to the import/export menu in Contacts the only Option it gives me is Send to Namecard. This will create a VCF file but it only contains part of my contact list and not the full list. Did they do away with the options to import and export to SD? Does anyone know of a way to get it to grab all of the contacts?
Thanks for any help you can provide!
