Getting contacts into your
phone
The first time you open the Phonebook, you get hints
on how to start adding contacts to your phone. This
is a good time to choose a method that suits your
situation and setup. View all import options on
www.sonyericsson.com/support/contacts
.
Example of methods:
Synchronize your phone with contacts
already stored with an online synchronization
service, such as Sony Ericsson Sync or
Google Sync™.
Import contacts from a SIM card. You may
not be able to transfer all information from
one phone to another using this method
because of limited memory on the SIM
card.
