Uh oh, P800 playing up [How to backup my contact fast]
Well, lets just say it keeps crashing. I *think* that my contact is stored on the phone as opposed to the SIM card. Is there any way to make a copy just in case? [Assuming its still possible]
Darn, all my electronics seems to be dying lately. For my shaver, now my phone =/

Yea, that'd mean getting a new phone first.. with a different SIM card (unless I can temporarily borrow someone elses phone).
But my next question was: is there anyway I can get a new contract (possibly with a different carrier) and keep my number? I like my current number, there are good deals from onestopphoneshop (I'll probably go for a W800). [It things doesn't look good for my phone right now, too bad I suppose]

yeah, sure. If the online retailer doesn't let you do this they you will need to call your existing network and get hold of a PUK code (at least it is something like that) then give this to your new network. This can take about a month i think.
Transfering from PAYG O2 to Contract O2 took a week for me. |

Thanks. Would stores like onestopphoneshop deal with it? Like I order, give them the PAC code and they'll ensure that my new pack will just have the same number? Or do I order the phone first, then ask to have my old number replace my new one?
I hope my contract has almost ran out. Not sure if it was due for renewal in October or November...
