On your current handset you should be able to go through to the settings and "save to sim" rather then to the handset. Once you have done this it should all transfer but just to be sure, I'd try saving them on a peice of paper! Its a failsafe way to ensure you don't lose your data due to a tecnhical hiccup!0 -

You can put your contacts into google contacts and then sync with phone.0 -
As the title says. I am on O2, my OSF due Wednesday. Have had a lot of advice on debranding etc - wait and see. If I am happy with mine, will get one for daughter. She is with orange,wants to stay with orange. Is there anything I can do to the phone to de-orange all the crud but keep it working with orange PAYG account? Also, note various comments about the orange E-mail being rubsville, so can she get E-mails via another source with out using on borad orange crud? Thanks in anticipation0

My OSF arrived. Charged up (2 hours and indicated charged on phone). Unlocked it (thanks again for all the help with that). Not going to do too much to until tomorrow but.... When it powers up, just stays on main screen (with open lock at bottom left and loud speaker bottom roght). When I press menu button at bottom it just vibrates and nothing happens. Can you help (again)0

Put your finger on the unlock symbol and slide it across the screen.0

Thanks. I did say in another post i was technically dumb. Perhaps i should have ordered an unsmart phone? Thanks0
