I cracked my Lumia 1520 screen and will have to send it out for repair to Palco, which will take a week. I will use an old iPhone 5 during this time, How can I get access to my contacts and text messages that are on my windows phone? Thanks.
IN outlook.com on my pc, I can only see Skype contacts under messaging. I don't really use Skype so there are not many there. On my windows phone, there are many more contacts, and these are the ones that I text message and would need available on another device. thanks.
Yeah, I'd second a 520 or something similar. I picked up an AT&T 520 GoPhone for $39.00 from Amazon.Make sure to save all your contacts to Outlook and not local storage on the phone. This way they are available on all the devices you would use. As for the test messages I am pretty sure getting them over to an iPhone is not possible.
I recently was without my 1520 while the screen was being repaired. I pulled out my old Samsung Ativ S and within 30 minutes I was back up with everything including text message history. If you get yourself a cheap 520 or other Windows Phone device this will work for you as well.
