@kota.prabhu249 First check if .vcf file can be created. If there is no way to create .vcf file, then Copy all those contacts to sim and then transfer from that sim to android phone.

thank you so much for the comet a SIM card can hold only around 2:50 contacts are there any SIM cards or can hold more than that and how to create a VCF contact and what to do after that

Setup a google sync acc on ur old ph and syc contacts on google acc
Now ur contacts will be stored on google acc .
As soon as u setup ur android ph using this google acc u will get all contacts on new ph

Other method would be to create a contact backup on ur old ph .
There is an option in setting

No u can rename backup file as backup.zip and open via zip viewr
There u should see .vcf file
With vcf u cn proceed further

If nbu file is created u might need nbuexplorer

Other method would be using nokiapc suite (not sure)

if there is a feature to set Google account I would not have worried at all does Nokia suite work for Samsung mobile

Actually, there’re many android data transfer apps could transfer data between android device and computer. You ca transfer contacts from samsung to computer first, then conncect another phone to computer to import contacts to it.

Transfer the contacts on old phone to a PC using USB feature if supported or through SIM+SIM reader. Create a .VCF file. Upload to Google contacts and merge duplicate contacts. Then link this google account to the new phone.

To transfer 1200 contacts from your old phone to the new Android phone, there are two ways. One is using Google account, the other is using Phone Transfer program. With their help, we can directly transfer contacts between mobile phones.
