phone contract has ended, cannot change it over to payg so have to sell it.
however, i have kids photos and video clips on it. is there any way i can transfer these over to my pc or a cd . so i can clear my phone and sell it????
any help/advice appreciated.
thanks

my contract was with 3. they wont swop it over although i have sim and phone,
which is quite annoying.

Think I'd be tempted to transfer the number to another network... or unlock the phone and grab myself a choice of PAYG sim.

hiya, make and model of phone is lg 8120 . apparantly 3 don't sell sims individually, i.e. without a phone.

buy a 3 pay as you go phone and sim, stick the sim in your phone and sell the new phone.

Use the Kodak machine in Boots and send your piccies to it via Bluetooth. Print off pics or have them copied to a disk.....voila etc!

Or get a dongle

Like Scheming Gypsy said,what you can do is take the phone to a shop to get it unlocked to use with any network(finding a shop is up to you) once unlocked you can ask 3 for your PAK code not PUK (this is your roaming code) then you can phone vodafone or another network provider give them the code and they will send you a new sim card for the network of your choice for free, and this will include your number that will be the same, But make sure you ask your new supplier for the same number just to make sure.

requested pac code, but cs said i had to continue with contract for an extra month to be able to transfer no. i was just a couple of days away from disconnection. so i left it.
not keen on 3 payg , think its too expensive , especially as there is the 30 day credit limit.
i have a usb cable and software which came with phone. can i use these to transfer pics/videos to my pc and then cd etc.
pleeeeeeeeese help as i'm not very teccy
thanks
