Transfer Contacts from the Samsung Galaxy Premier to the Galaxy S5 Active

Transférer des Contacts via Google Sync:



Using a Google account you can sync the contacts stored on your Galaxy Premier, and re-sync them on the Galaxy S5 Active. This makes for an effective method of contact transfer, as it doesn't require access to a computer or other resources.

Transferring Contacts via "Import / Export":



Via the "Contacts" app, you can export the contacts stored on the Galaxy Premier, and import them on the Active either via email or by using a computer.




  1. Launch the "Contacts" app on the Galaxy Premier

  2. Access the "Contacts" tab and press "Menu"

  10. Press the "Menu" key and then tap "Import / Export" > "import from SD card"

After the transfer, launch the "Contacts" app on the Active and import the file



Using "Send Anywhere" to Share Contacts:



You can use third party applications such as "Send Anywhere" to transfer contacts. Using this method you can easily share the contacts stored on the Galaxy Premier via a P2P connection, without needing access to a computer.
