Hi, Transferred all my contacts (via computer) from old PAYG phone to new Samsung 3, (which I have had for only 3 days) and notice the contacts are just saved to phone. Could someone please give me an idiots guide on how I can get them saved to Sim? ...Bear with me, this transition to S3 (and smartphones in general) will take me a few months to gain a basic level of competence! slight_smile

In the contacts app press menu then choose "import/export".

If they're all backed up to a Gmail account you could never lose them.

 

You would be able to access them from any device anywhere.
