V600 Copy entire phonebook to SIM

Posted: 07-24-2004, 01:29 PM
Instructions in book to copy all does not work. The second time told
to press the Menu key does nothing. I can copy one address at a
time, but that's way too painful.

I too, would like to know how to copy entire addressbook (or multiple
entries) from phone to SIM and vice versa.

I have a V400. I saw no instructions anywhere on how to do this.

Also, is there any way to keep an entry on both, the SIM and the phone?

The V600 keeps both, and that's another problem. In the phonebook
are both entries, the original from the phone, and the copied entry
in the SIM.

There's gotta be a way to display only one of them, but I can't find
it.

You are going to get duplicate entries.

Best way to back up phonebook is by using a PC and a BT dongle.

Works a treat........

Isn't there a way to view just the phonebook entries..?

My purpose is not for backup. It's for renting a phone in Japan,
using my own SIM, and having my numbers with me.

I don't get that option. What are the exact button pushes you use..?

Open up the phone book (to show list of names/numbers0

hit the middle soft key (menu)

Select 'Copy' (6th from bottom)

Then 'All to SIM'

Mind you, I dont know if it leaves all the entries on the phone as well, I
suspect it does, which may not be what you want.
But I'm not going to try it as I don't want all my phone numbers on my sim.

I do not get the choice "All to SIM," only the first entry in my
phonebook.

Perhaps you have a well botched version of the V600, cos even my Orange
edition has the coreect menu's to do this .
