Post by: aku46 on October 26, 2010, 10:02:20 am
hi, how to transfer all my contact, sms etc from my E2 to ZN5?
i'm using sysbiosis final, can see backup software but could not find how to use E2 backup files.

my E2 = Maxx IV
my ZN5 = Symbiosis X Final

thanks

Just send all contacts to sim card then restore on other phone.
About sms don't know the tool 4 linux phones.

thanks for reply.
any other method besides transfer to sim? becoz i'll lose many contact info like email,address,b'day etc

and why i can't transfer contact using bluetooth? at my E2 said transfer completed but my ZN5 said sort of '0 contact received and saved'..really frustrating

using Maxx make me forget MPT..:sigh
I think will flash my E2 to use MPT.
btw, MPT support ZN5?

Yeah: https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/4885/p_country_code/US

So try like @Tegy said, about bluetooth I think it will work one by one only, not with all contatcs.

thanks zdune & tegezan.
contact transfer completed.
1-sync all contact with Outlook..of course using MPT.
2-save all Outlook contact in ".vcf" format.
3-transfer all the ".vcf" files to zn5 using bluetooth. zn5 will automatically save all contact.

*my MPT can't support ZN5..no money to buy newer version  :P

Good to know opsss :P , about sms, even if you will export them all successfully I ain't sure if they will be able to import back to ZN5.
But wait for @Tegy's answer he is linux phone user :)

already try copying files from SysDatabase folder of E2 and transfer to zn5.
SMS successfully restored but phonebook shows nothing.
later can't save new contact either key in manual or bluetooth fr other phone.
