Either I'm being stupid here or this can't be done.

I haven't got a spare SIM and neither phone can be operated without 1.

So I've 2 phones and 1 SIM, but both need to be on in order to do the transfer.

Any ideas as I'm completely flumoxed.

many operators/service providers give out a few pre paid SIMs a few times every year, try to get ahold of one of those, and put it in the other phone. I know theres a few members here (i believe one is Peterkay, if not, im sorry) is selling a few for a very good price. so take a look

Copy the contacts on sim, then copy back in the fone from sim to fone. Or get another sim, really not a big deal now a days, so u can use bt for transfer.

Do you have an expired or inactive SIM card? It can be used for just transfer the contacts.
Or do a synchronization with computer.

found a long dead sim and it worked a treat.

Just seems a bit awkward to me though ?

I use MyPhoneExplorer to make a backup file which Isend to my PC via BT. I then restore that file to the next phone via BT.
