Help! Importing SIM contacts

[linbuk]

I've just unlocked and jailbroken my iphone 3g and connected to work on tmobile, however I wasn't able to import my contacts from SIM card. Did any of you have the same problem?

did you specifically try to import them through the settings menu?

[linbuk]

Yeah, I did, I went to the settings menu and requested to import my contacts from SIM, however the message that contacts being imported just blinked and dissapeared and it didn't do anything.

i found that some sim adapter are unable to go on itunes and unable to import contacts.

Did anyone figure out the problem yet, Im having the same issues and I'm using turbo sim.

I think that you will just have to re-enter all of your contacts. My contacts wouldn't download to my iPhone, and that's what I had to do.

I had the same problem, and yes I had to add the contact 1 by 1 and it was a pain. There are some people I will never call again!! LOL

You can use the bluetooth to import the contacts if your old phone is equiped with bluetooth or just borrow AT&T sim card from somebody, move the contacts from your old phone into that sim and then insert the sim into the iphone.
