Nokia Content Copier

Okay so I admit I still had 256 mb memory card stuck in my Nokia e61i. I thought I will finally switch to 1 gb which cost me only $15. Now the momentous task was to switch all the info from my 256 mb to 1 gb I thought I will give content copier a crack and see if it finally works or not. After opening up the content copier I selected memory card back up only and after waiting for I don’t know how many minutes (mind you it is a pretty slow process) I finally managed to transfer files. Content Copier did work but to my utmost disappointment it copied only video, music, images, backup sms’s from sms export, contacts and a few useless items. Nopes no softwares were backed up. Then I thought I will give data transfer through cable a try.

Data Transfer using cable

After connecting the usb cable with my Nokia e61i the new drive was recognized as L drive on my laptop I copied the whole root folder to my PC G drive. The process was much faster in fact I think it only took 5 to 10 minutes. Then I copied the L folder and since I had put my mmc card with my 1 gb micro sd card in my laptop it had also created a K drive and pasted all my content in it. Please make sure to select all folders inside the root folder not the root folder. Alternatively you can also do the same with the usb cable i.e copy memory card content L drive back it up on a pc drive then copy/paste it to the new memory card. Again the process was very fast. I took my micro sd card out of the laptop and inserted in my nokia e61i. Voila all my programs, pictures, music, videos and other stuff got transferred without a hitch. Special thanks for erphan my colleague for giving this tip.
