> In reply to courteousy of GCSTro @ 2008-06-02 23:47 from AdXmI tried your solution and it worked beautifully. Both the store and tech support on the phone told me there was nothing I could do to get my numbers back. So, I just wanted to say thank you! You're a life saver :-D

Second: Power up the phone, close it and wait approx. 1 minute. (Just to ensure the phone boots up properly)

Third: Open the phone and follow these keystrokes. By the way, for clarification let me explain what I call the keys. The upper left most key on the touchpad is what I call the "select" button. The circular touchpad with the "left, right, up, down and enter" keys I call respectively. The center button being the "enter" key.

Ok, so here are the keystrokes to download the phone numbers saved to your piece of crap phone onto your SIM card.

Open the phone
Down
Up
Up
Enter
Press Down five times
Press select (the most upper left key on the pad)
Press Down five more times
Press Enter
Press Enter
Press Select

Wait approx 1-2 min. Power the phone down, remove your SIM card and install it in your new phone. From here you can either download the SIM card numbers onto your phone's database using the respective keystrokes on your non piece of junk phone.

I have the same issue of a blank screen on my Sony 525a. I too need to get the numbers. However, without knowing every keystroke to Copy Phone Address Book to SIM, it is not likely. I don't even recall where the cursor goes in the menu to get to the right option. Can anyone provide these step-by-step keystrokes?

Can anyone help me??? I guess I was lucky. I got this phone in March 2006 and had absolutely no problems with it. I finally decided to get a new phone just because my phone was getting old and I didn't want to take a chance on it dying on me and leaving me without a phone (mind you there was nothing wrong with it at the time). Anyway, the very next day the screen went blank. Now I have my new phone, but I did not get a chance to save my info. from the old phone onto my SIM card. I tried the directions that were posted here, twice. It didn't work. I really need to get my information off of my old phone. HELP!!!!!

To Celine,

I'm facing the same problem as well. It's my second time actually. The first time I sent it for repair, the service agent told me it's because of a screen problem and she told me it'd maybe due to a shock / drop on the floor . So I wonder if you did drop it on the floor accidentally. For the second time, it's my mistake as I did drop it and the next day, I couldn't see anything and the screen flickered like an old tv :(

Aayesha, are you talking about the blank screen problem? I just found the problem a couple of days ago. Would you mind to tell me where I can get one flex cable and where the instruction is? Thanks in advance.

you can also send the pictures to your pc through bluetooth, it more or less like my w810i, removing the walkman functions.and the picture quality too. i got mine for about $60.00. you can't complain with that. IT'S REALLY NICE FOR THE PRICE.
