1.Saving contacts on the SIM card of your meizu phone.

Transfer via SIM card.

This is the easiest and most intuitive way to transfer contacts from phone to phone.
Depending on the meizu phone model, it is possible to transfer contact book numbers to a SIM card. If, when creating a new contact, you did not save it to a SIM card, then in order to transfer contacts from the phone memory to a SIM card, you need to run the command in the phone - copy contacts
from the phone’s contact book to the SIM card (not supported by all models).

Advice for simple push-button phones.

Experience with contacts shows that when creating an important contact, it is best to immediately save it to a SIM card. Even though the SIM card has few fields, there is no Email, Additional Information, or fields for Extension telephones. But a SIM card is usually used for years, and users change phones approximately every 1-3 years. In this case, when purchasing a new meizu phone, all important contacts will always be reflected in its phone book without any problems. To do this, you won’t have to do anything, just insert the old SIM card into the new phone. But don't forget to make backup copies of your contacts from time to time. For example, copy them to some old phone.

Branded contact synchronization utilities for meizu.

Use of proprietary software.

This is when copying and transferring data from a meizu phone to a computer is carried out through special Software (driver, program). All more or less well-known manufacturers of mobile equipment: meizu and others, specifically create and distribute programs that allow you to enter the phone’s memory from a PC. But this is true for outdated models, push-button phones.

When using the phone manufacturer's proprietary program, first a backup copy of the address book is created on the PC of the old meizu phone. Then a new phone from the same manufacturer is connected to the computer: meizu and in the same program, the contact book is transferred to the memory of the new phone.

But we must keep in mind that phones of different price lines do not have the ability to connect to a computer or laptop. They either don't have Wi-Fi or USB or Bluetooth.

Another problem is that different phone models have different numbers of fields in the contact book. Because of this, when transferring contacts from an expensive model to a budget model from the same manufacturer, the contacts will not be transferred correctly. For example, when you transfer a Misha contact containing 6 phone numbers to a simple device, you can get six contacts with the name Misha, each of which will have one number. Or such data is simply lost during transfer.

And if the transfer needs to be done between phones from different manufacturers, then it is not Meizu proprietary software that is used, but universal software to synchronize phone data with a computer and with different models from different manufacturers.

If the models are the same or the phone manufacturer is the same, this method is effective. If the old and new phones are from different manufacturers, then in addition to the proprietary program of the phone manufacturer, an “intermediary” program is used - Microsoft Outlook

(from the Microsoft Office package, not to be confused with the Outlook Express email client).

Method 1. Through a Google account

Each Android smartphone user must have a Google account, which can be used to install and update applications. Through your account, you can copy numbers in two stages.

Before you transfer contacts from your phone to your computer, you need to synchronize:

• Login to your smartphone settings
• Select "Accounts"
• Click on the Google item or add it using the command in the list
• Set the switch next to the “Contacts” item
• Click on the menu in the upper right corner
• Click "Synchronize"

After this, you can proceed directly to copying numbers. This happens using the settings of the “Contacts” system application. This program has an export and import function. All numbers are packaged into a vcf file, which can then be sent by email:

• Launch the Internet on your smartphone
• Open "Contacts"
• Click on the drop-down menu
• Select Import/Export
• Specify a SIM card or internal memory as the export source
• Select email address
• Specify contacts to transfer

After a few seconds, all contacts will be reset to email. They can be left in an electronic mailbox or transferred to the PC memory.

By the way, numbers from the phone book in the form of a vcf file can be copied to an SD card, and then transferred to the computer’s hard drive via a card reader. In this case, it is important that there are no applications installed on the card that will be removed after it is removed.

How to add a new entry

To add a new contact, click on the round pink “Create” button at the bottom right.

A window like this will open with the newly created data, click on the cross to close it.

After you add a new entry to your account, it will automatically appear in the phone book on your smartphone. This is provided that synchronization of contacts with Google account on the device is enabled (we will talk about it below).

All added entries can be divided into groups. Expand the corresponding item in the menu on the left. In the example, there is only one, and three users are added to it - the number in brackets. If you want to add a new one, click “Create a group”.

Come up with a name for it and click “OK”.

To add a user to a group, hover over the user and click on the three vertical dots, this is the “More” button. From the drop-down list, click on the name of the desired group.

There are two more buttons here: “Add a note” - the entry will appear at the very beginning of the list, “Edit” - a window will open for changing the contact.

After selecting a group, a check mark will appear opposite it, and in the list on the left, the number of users included in it will increase.

If you hover your mouse over the name of the group, buttons will appear using which you can edit the name or delete it. When you select any of them, a list of users who are included in it will open. To remove a person, click on the dots next to him and uncheck the box next to the group name.

Method 3: How to copy contacts through third-party programs

The “Applications” section on the Play Market contains hundreds of programs that can be used to copy phone numbers to your computer. Despite the differences in settings and interface, all these applications have one thing in common - the principle of creating a vcf file into which contacts are packaged for sending to a PC.

Having tried several programs for transferring contacts, we decided to recommend to our readers the AirDroid service, which allows you to remotely control your phone from a PC. An account in this service is created in three steps:

1. Open the official website of the service and register
2. Install the AirDroid application on your mobile device
3. Sign in to your account

Hello, friends! I would like to dedicate this article to the contacts that are stored in each user’s Google account. Many people have heard that they exist, but only a few know how to use them, where to look for them, and how to set them up so that after a sudden breakdown of your smartphone they can all be restored.

I'll tell you how I found out about them. My phone worked great and I didn’t plan to change it, but one fine day it just turned off and that’s it, no reaction at all, no matter what buttons I pressed. Of course, I took it to a repair shop and ran out to buy myself a new smartphone. I was upset about the contacts - how can I put them all back together now? There were a lot of necessary people, friends, acquaintances there. So, I logged into my Google account (to use the Play Store) and lo and behold, almost all of my contacts in the phone book were restored!

So let’s, so that everything is just as perfect for you, we’ll figure out what contacts are in a Google account, where they are, how you can view them, how to save phone contacts in a Google account, perform automatic synchronization, restore the necessary records or delete them. First, we will do everything using a computer, and then from an Android phone.

Restoring the correct display of lists

We already know how to recover deleted contacts on Android - using third-party applications and backups. But sometimes situations arise when contacts remain on the phone, but we simply cannot see them. This happens when there is a problem with the phone book settings, as a result of which it tries to show us contacts from the SIM card or from the phone’s internal memory. And if the phone memory and SIM card are empty, then we will not see anything.

In order to restore the display of the phone book and regain access to phone records, you need to go to the application settings for working with contacts. Here we need to find the item “Show contacts”, “View”, “Source of contacts”, etc. (the name of the item differs depending on the program used).

After visiting this item, you need to select the storage location for your current phone book - if it is stored in a Google account, choose to display contacts from your account

. Here you can also choose to display data from the following sources:

• SIM card (sometimes more than one);
• Phone memory;
• Contacts in applications (Skype, Viber, etc.);
• Contacts via email;
• Contacts on social networks.

If you select an empty source, the contact list will be empty. Thus, failures in applications often lead to the absence of displayed contacts - you just need to understand their settings.

Modern phones are complex electronic devices. They help owners anywhere in the world view content via the Internet, do business, and pay taxes. And also - communicate with each other using various communication programs - from a regular telephone to instant messengers and social networks. It is extremely important to know and maintain the contacts of your interlocutors. The smartphone stores such information.

The contact database is one of the most important blocks of information in a smartphone.
