Next, launch the contacts app and select to import the contacts from storage / SD cards. Follow any additional on-screen steps to import the vCard file's contents

Using "My Contacts Backup":

Using the "Send Anywhere" Application:



Send Anywhere is an app capable of transferring pictures, numerous file types and contacts from one phone to another, using a P2P connection.
