A640 Broke in Half, Need Contacts


My A640 just broke in half. Bluetooth and all that stuff still works. I'm looking for a step by step guide on how to send files over bluetooth(screen is broken).

Thanks,
Red Cape

I have an A640 in front of me now.
- Assuming phone is at main screen.
I press "Menu OK" for the menu.
My phone is in the 3x3 graphic menu mode
Right Arrow once
Up Arrow once "Tools"
OK to select
"1" for Bluetooth

Then I get a "Trusted Devices" menu. Hopefully you have been paired with your PC in the past. It will also show any bluetooth headsets you have been paired with and any other phones you ever shared contacts with. -- so this can be tricky, but not impossible. Pressing down once will go from the first device to the second. When you get to the end, the selection will go back to the first. You may have to try multiple times to find your PC.

OK - you make your best guess and continue ...

Right ... button for "options"
"2" for Send Contact
Down Arrow once to "Send All"
OK button to send
Then I get the message "Sending Please Wait 0/114" -- You have to watch your PC and see if the contacts are coming in.


Alternatively - I can load and download contacts with BitPim and a datacable. This may work for you, but you would have to buy a data cable for your phone ( around $10-15 with shipping, BitPim is free )

Good Luck!!!!



----- Forget this, Under Tools, you can send all contacts.... ------
It will be very difficult without knowing where you are at on the screen.
Here are the keys I press to send a contact to my PC.
- Assuming phone is at main screen.

Right ... button for Contacts
Down Arrow once for first contact.
Right ... button for Options
3 for "Send Contact"

OK - now it is more tricky. I get a menu of "Trusted Devices", I have 4 of them, hopefully you only have one, or know which in the list is your PC.

My PC is last - the first device is selected by default, do I down arrow 3 times.

Left ... button for "Select"
OK button for "Yes"

Then the phone says "Please wait"

You would have to repeat this over and over to send many contacts.
