If you ventured into the Microsoft platform, having bought a Windows Phone smartphone for some time and now want to return to the green little robot, you must have realized that it is not easy to transfer your data. Google does not offer a specific app for Windows users back to Android, and mobile phone manufacturers also do not give much attention to it.
So if you want to bring all your old device data Windows Phone for its new Android, you must use manual methods or buy software that automates the process. The MobileTrans Wondershare can be considered one of the best paid options, costing around R $ 150.
MobileTrans can get almost everything you have in the old phone and takes to the new, and also compatible with iOS. But if you do not want to pay anything for it, check out the following steps.
Contatos
Para transfer your contacts from one phone to another, the simplest and quickest way is doing it by the computer by exporting contacts from your Microsoft account to a file and then import this file to your Google Account. It is worth noting that for this to work, you need to have your phone contacts synchronized in the cloud. Here’s how:
Step 1
Access your Microsoft account through this link. Enter your email (Outlook, Hotmail, Live etc ..) and password.
Step 2
Now, check out the page title bar and click “Manage” . Select the “Export to use with Outlook.com and other services” .
Once this is done, you will download a file called “OutlookContacts.csv.”
Step 3
After you save the file in a location easily accessible, go back to your browser and go to the contacts in your Google Account using this link.
Enter your Gmail and enter your password. If you do not have a Google Account, you’ll have to create one.
Step 4
After being on the home page of your contacts, go to “More” at the top of the page, choose “Import” and click “Choose File” .
By clicking this button, you will have to navigate to where you saved the file “OutlookContacts.csv” and select it. Finally, click “Import” .
After that, you may be required to confirm any window, but contacts must then be loaded. In a few minutes to sync your Google account on your new Android should bring new contacts to the phone without any action required. Remember, however, you need to log in to your Android with the same Google Account to which imported contacts.
Photos and videos
To take your photos and videos to Android, the simplest way to do this is using the onedrive, which is the backup engine standard in Windows. After that, you must install on your Android onedrive and download your images to the device, or leave them there saved it. Check out how to do this:
Step 1
Go to the “Settings” from your Windows smartphone
Step 2
in the “System” , click “Photos Camera +” .
Step 3
Look for the “auto Upload” and touch “onedrive” to enable, if not activated. Now you can choose the quality of the images sent to the cloud, as well as videos. Do not turn off or format your phone to make sure that all images have been sent to the onedrive
Step 4
install onedrive on your smartphone or Android tablet via this link. Log in with the same Microsoft account, tap one of the legs and look for the option to leave offline if wanted to keep the files locally.
You can not make the automatic restoration of WhatsApp data directly from Windows Phone to Android. This is because the backup system on both platforms is different. You then need to back up on your Windows phone’s memory card and then take it to your Android smartphone.
If any of the devices do not have slot for memory cards, your only option will save the conversations files in your email, but there is no way to restore them again in the new cell.
Step 1
Open WhatsApp on your Windows device, touch More “…” and choose “settings” . Then select “chat settings” .
Step 2
Click “backup” and wait for loading. This will make all your conversations are saved on the memory card.
Step 3
Check through a file browser (PC or smartphone) is the backup folder WhatsApp on the memory card is saved as “whatsapp” or “sdcard / whatsapp” . If so, it is possible to take the card to the Android device.
Step 4
On your Android device, put the memory card, connect the unit, install WhatsApp and soon after checking your phone number, tap “Restore”. The app should check your memory card automatically to restore the conversations.
It is possible that errors occur in this process if you are not using the same old device’s phone number in the new, among other complications .
