      Try by Syncin your Nokia first with outlook. Start kies with your Android connected. Again sync with outlook. It is done. Again sync with Google. Now every time you factory reset your Android, simply sync with your google acocout after getting connected. It takes 3 or 4 minutes to sync all your contacts

        Dr K A Rasheed, Your method is most simple and easy. It was succesful for me. Thanks. However, when I synced with google, it flashed a message that the account used for syncing is the same as in the device, hence cannot proceed. If I use another account, will it proceed?

    Use Nokia’s Mail for Exchange to sync your contacts to Gmail account and then back to your Android. Could not be simpler.

    No need to do any of that

    if your symbian has Bluetooth

    go to contacts, select all(options> select>select all), in options > send card > by bluetooth (to your galaxy/any android)

    and no need to do anything in the galaxy, the phone book is already there =)

    When you have hundreds of contacts this trick will work fine, thanks for the detailed instructions! I just noticed that the CSV file Nokia PC Suite created used semi colons. For this reason Kies wouldn’t approve them and I used Word to replace them with commas.

    What is the easy way to transfer messages from Nokia N72 to Samsung Galaxy S2. Searched for this a lot, but everywhere its only about contacts. I would like to copy my precious messages to the new phone as well. Please help out. Thanks a bunch.

      I’ve been wondering the same thing: how to import all the old sms from my memory card to galaxy s2?

      • NeaL Pradeep
        September 19, 2011 • 1:34 am

        you can do so by converting it to csv format and then you can import using the “sms backup and restore” app from androidappslabs.com

    I’m no dummy but I can find “Open File” anywhere. I have a brand new Samsung Galaxy S2 with Android 2.3.3. When I go to Contacts on the phone I get Import/Export from SIM. There is no option to import from a file. When I browse from my computer using Kies air I can get to Contacts but there is no “Open File” button. I could only get as far as screenshot 3. Please help!

    I saw this post and was surprised about all the methods given here to export contacts. I can see people are going through all the hassles of exporting and getting softwares and God knows what else. Instead, has anyone tried to send the contacts from your nokia to samsung using bluetooth?? I have a nokia 5800 and I just selected all the contacts, and sent them via bluetooth to my samsung galaxy s2, works like a charm, no hassles! took me 5 mins. All my contacts are there now!

    Hi,

    Thanks for this post, in my case it didn’t work (transferring from NOKIA e90 to SAMSUNG Galaxy S2). The simple procedure which I did and it was 100% successful is on NOKIA e90 I marked all the contacts and copy to SD Card. I removed the SD Card and install in Galaxy s2. I went to contact and import from SD Card. This is all it is. Because of these contacts I used to stick to Nokia.

    Regards,
    Aziz Khan

    I just did the bluetooth way = simple.

    dont bother messing with software or sync. i just did over 400 contacts from my nokia in contacts go to settings, manage, mark all, send business cards, via bluetooth, sending, bang on.
    the sammy didnt even look like it had done anything so i just hit contacts on the phonebook icon of the s2 and there were automatically ordered in as if by magic, no bluetooth messages in the inbox just a whole complete phonebook automatically. the easiest thing ever. takes seconds

    Ok so! The easiest, no time consuming at all and the most effective method I could find is to sync your Nokia contacts with google and get them on your android phone. On most Nokia s60 phones an application named “mail for exchange” is per installed or can be installed from Nokia store for free. To setup a google account in mail for exchange follow instructions on http://support.google.com/mobi

    While setting up, only select contacts to be synced and select “no” for everything else if your only goal is to transfer contacts. When setup is complete, in “mail for exchange” app opened, select “options” and select “synchronize”. All your contacts will be on google in seconds.

    Keep in mind to be patient. “Mail for exchange” pauses for a moment after every 50 contacts have transferred. This is the most helpful method I could find after a whole night’s research and it really worked for me.

    thansk for the bluetooth tip. It really works.. I just tranfered 1,300 contacts from my Nokia N81 to Galaxy note by clicking–mark all, send business card—via bluetooth (nokia will convert all your contacts to business card, which might take few minutes, depending on how big is the size)

    one more way is there by which you will have the backup as well. Install Usync (http://www.usyncworld.com/). Through usync u can backup all ur nokia data in it and can transfer to any other mobile phone.

    absolutely great instructions, I did this from Nokia N97 to Samsung S3. Nothing else was working for me, Bluetooth, memory card, etc etc. This was just great, thanks a lot!

    great manual but this way your contacts are transferred without GROUPS because export to .csv from Nokia PC Suite doesn’t support it. 

  36. Radhe Rajput
    July 8, 2012 • 12:54 am

    There is more simple way available to do this…..
    *Go to your contacts, and select mark all.
    *Go to options, select send via blue-tooth.
    *On blue-tooth of your Samsung receiving mobile phone.
    *Just accept it, its done…no need to do above mentioned excercise of converting to csv and blah..blah…

    Hope it will help you.

    Thanks,
    Radhe

    This instruction is really helpful. While i have tried another way, using MobileTrans which is a professional phone to phone transfer to move anything in my old mobile to a new one.
