YES!(cool) good method to copy contacts from one phone to Samsung, and it's useful, but in advance, we should make sure the enough space in SIM card to store contacts, if so many contacts....., it's better to backup to Google, then restore to Samsung phone. Or transfer contacts between phones by Eelphone Mobile Transfer.
