Nokia 6230i help!

[NiceCupOfTea]

Hi all,

My wife has tasked me with copying all the text messages / photo messages / photos / media off her 6230i (on Orange), but I haven't used Nokia phones for years.

Do I need Nokia Datasuite or can I jsut get them all off via bluetooth. One at a time is a bit of a drag though...

I suppose I could just use the card in my card reader but some stuff is still on the internal memory and that wouldn't help for SMS/MMS messages...

All thoughts on a postcard

Probably much quicker to just download the datasuite and install it to be honest, i can't see any easy way of doing it otherwise

Cheers,
Rob.

Think you can do it via bluetooth, you have to " mark all " of the objects you want to move across and send it that way, i could be wrong though but i am sure that is how my mate did mine

You need to go into the phone settings and copy everything from the phone memory to the sim card, put the sim card in the new phone (before the sim is disabled) and copy it all back from the sim to the new phones memory. Alternatively take it down to one of the many many orange shops and they'l do it all for you.

Ah, the PC Suite has done most of it fairly easily, it's a lot better than when I used to use it!

However, it doesn't seem to see any of the MMS messages... I've had this problem before, whilst you can copy off photos and back up SMS messages, you don't seem to be able to copy of MMS messages - anybody have a solution to this?

Nokia PC Suite the best way to go and easy peasy
Not sure why MMS isn't copying

Where are they stored? My wife says they appear in her inbox amongst the normal SMSes but they're not there in PC Suite...

Inbox -> Click on msg -> Options -> Objects -> Open picture -> Options -> Save.

This will let you save the image to the gallery, for transfering, you can do the same with the text too i think.

Cheers,
