Adding and transferring contact
information
There are a number of ways in which telephone
numbers and contacts can be entered and stored, and
there are also a number of ways to make a phone call. It
is therefore important to be able to transfer those
contacts between the programmes used to make calls.
Places where contacts can be entered into your
phone and stored
• Your SIM card: You can exchange your SIM card between
your Smartphone and other devices; while using other
devices, you can create one or more new contacts on the
SIM card.
• Microsoft Contacts.
• Call History: New contact numbers can be found in
incoming calls or missed calls.
Why transfer numbers?
• In the event you lose your SIM card while using it in
another device, your SIM numbers will be backed up on
to your device.
• If you want to transfer a number to
Speed Dial
, it must
be in
Contacts
, not on the SIM card.
• If you are using your SIM in another device, you may
need the numbers stored in
Microsoft Contacts
.
• Transferring numbers to
Microsoft Contacts
allows you
to create more detailed records.
