Using a Google Account:

NOTE: Using a Google account you can sync the contacts on your SGSIII, which means you can then re-sync the contacts from the account with the LG G Stylo. To use this method:

  1. Sign in with your Google account on the Galaxy SIII
  2. Press “Menu” on the home screen and go to “Settings”
  3. Tap “My Accounts” > “Google”
  4. Tap your “user name” or “email address” and enable “Sync Contacts”
  5. Tap “Sync Now”
  6. Switch to the LG G Stylo and register the same Google account
  7. Allow the account to sync contacts with the LG device

Using the “Contacts” app:

NOTE: Using the default Contacts app you can export the contacts on the SGSIII as a vCard file. Then you can transfer the file to the LG G Stylo, and import its contents via “Contacts”

  1. Open the “Contacts” app on the SGSIII
  2. Access the “Contacts” tab and press “Menu”
  3. Tap “Contacts to display” > “All contacts”
  4. Press “Menu” > “Import / Export”
  5. Tap “Export to SD Card” and ensure you recall the file’s name before tapping “OK”
  6. Send the vCard file to your own Gmail address
  7. Switch to the LG G Stylo and open the email containing the attached vCard file
  8. Download the file and open “Contacts”
  9. Press “Menu” > “Manage contacts” > “Import”
  10. In the “From” field select the location of the VCF file
  11. In the “To” field select either “Phone” or “Google”
  12. Choose the contacts to import or tap “Select all”
  13. Tap “Import” > “Yes”

NOTE: After you have created the vCard file on the SGSIII, you can transfer it to the LG G Stylo by connecting both smartphones to a computer via USB and manually copy-pasting it

Using “Send Anywhere”:

NOTE: If you’re looking for a third party app that can transfer files and contacts from one phone to another via a P2P connection, Send Anywhere might be what you need.

  1. Visit the Play Store and install “Send Anywhere” on both Android smartphones
  2. Open the app on both devices
  3. On the sender device, tap “Send” > “Contacts”
  4. Select the contacts you want to share and tap “Send”
  5. Finally, tap “Generate QR Code” on the sender device and scan the code with the LG G Stylo camera to begin the contact transfer. Alternatively you can tap “Receive” on the LG, and manually enter the transfer code generated by the SGSIII
