Hi!
I used to have K750 - it wasn't great - software bugs making it restart, buttons were stuck from time to time, sound had some noise after a month's use.

Anyway, I was assured by my local store, that this is not an issue with W800, so I bought it.
Well, restarts were rare, BUT today software completely collapsed and phone doesn't start at all.

Local repairers said they have to flash it, but in this way I will lose over 400 contact numbers.

DOES anyone know how I can save my address book? Is there any such software, for example like for PC-s, to just read the phone memory as a slave card?

Unless you had the option enabled that autosaves new phone contacts to the sim, methinks you are s.o.l. If the phone won't turn on, you can't access it, even with the SE PC Suite software (which normally would let you get access to the phone contacts, files, etc).

Hi,

I have more than 450 numbers, so no chance for a SIM to gather all them, that's why option was turned off!
