Transferring SMS's from Nokia to Blackberry

Post by Moin. » Sun Apr 29, 2012 10:26 pm

Gents, I've given up trying to google :( I am not very tech savvy. Any idea on transfeering SMS's from a Nokia Phone to a Blackberry. I have backed up the messages using Nokia Suite Software. I could export them to an CSV and then to an excel format. Now I am stuck. Is there any way of transferring or importing this to Blackberry Desktop Manager from where these can be transferred to a BB.

A lot of IT people here and therefore the post. I hope this is in General Ramblings Forum and not inappropraite for IFG. Look forward to some help. Some really important SMS's I want to transfer and dispose the old phone.

Thanks & Regards
Moin.

1. Forward you messages from one device to other using two sim's.
2. Copy your messages into sim from device.

Can you tell us the exact make and model of your devices.

We are the blackberry boys,oh yeah! We are the blackberry boys!

Sorry Moin. You just cant. I couldnt even transfers the contacts.
My years and years of reading Chip and Digit religiously was in wain, here.
Asked my friends as well.
But there's one jugaad way. Copy them to SIM card and then open them in yoyr BB. Move'em on phone. Repeat the process till you get all your messages.
What BB is yours? What model?
Probably you might, a teeny weeny li'l 'might ' transfer SMS in the latest and higher end models of BB

Best of luck!
Do teach me if you find out.

The Best option for transferring SMS from Nokia to BB is convert your SMS in Nokia to a Excel file & save it in your BB for reference.

The Nokia is a X2 (my building watchman has a better phone :mrgreen: ) and the BB is a 9220. SMS's can't be copied to the SIM, the Nokia is very basic. Another SIm can be inserted and forwarded but those will go from a single ID ? And more than 500 SMS's to forward.

I have saved them as an excel file, but was wondering if there's a way to transfer ?

Thanks

Moin Sir,
Slightly OT and I dont want to Hijack your Post,
I must say swiching cell phone is theeee bigest problem atleast for me.
My Wife and my 6 year old DADDY, apart from enjoying gooood life ,are totally advertisement driven.
For last couple of years , Before I could understand and use a a cell phone I am compelled to SELL it and BUY a new one that matches the status symbol.

Thank GOD you are learning in advance :D :D
best wishes Saar :) :)
