    Jailbroken? Unjailbroken its not possible, don't know if there is an app in Cydia that allows it.

    Back up your contacts to your computer, place the sim in the phone you want to use and then sync it with your computer. iSync will do this for you on a mac, I suppose you could just use Google on a PC.

    Im sorry i have not gave alot of information. Im using pc and the phone i have. My old one is and e51. I just wanna get my contacts from my iPhone onto the sim. So when i put sim into e51 they are there.

    The normal way of doing it was just copy contacts to sim. But Apple seem to be making that hard for me:)

    You can't do this directly from your phone.
    Go into iTunes with your phone connected and click on the info tab. Under the Contacts section you can choose to sync your contacts with either a Google or a Yahoo account. Click on configure and enter your info. After syncing, you can log into your Google account and export the contacts as an .CSV file. The software you got with you E51 should be able to handle the rest.

    It was easy enough in the end. I just downloaded the nokia suite software and that just got the contacts from the same place the iPhone gets them. "Windows Contacts"

    It was such a joy to use the e51 again. Turned off 3g. My battery lasted from Friday to Sunday. Did not have to worry about being caught out. Felt great to actually trust the battery.
