PhoneCopy.com is a web service which is free for personal purposes (with few limitations). This tutorial will show you how to backup your data from Nokia Asha 205. The whole process can be completed in few minutes.

This guideline also works for similar devices like Nokia 206, Nokia 2060, Nokia Asha 210, Nokia Asha 501, Nokia C2-05, Nokia X2-02, Nokia X2-05.

Phonecopy client registration is simple. Choose your username and insert your email address, where we will send you a confirmation email that you will need to activate your account.

Phone setup

To have your contacts saved you have to synchronize the Nokia with PhoneCopy. First step is to set up the synchronization on the Nokia. For better illustration, we've made some screenshots, but experienced users naturally won't need and will be able to set up the phone on their own, or following the device manual on PhoneCopy website. But back to the screenshots now, create a new synchronization profile in the menu:

Choose Settings Choose Configuration Choose Personal settings

Choose Options and Add new. Choose Synchronisation as typ.

 Zvolte Options a Add newChoose synchronisation

Now, fill in Account name- Phonecopy, your username, password and Server Address http://www.phonecopy.com/sync

   Type Phonecopy into box Account name. Type your user name into box Username.Type your password into box Password

Type http://www.phonecopy.com/sync into box Server Address.  

Fill in everything, what you need synchronise.

  Select Contact database and typeContacts. Select Calendar database and type CalendarSelect Notes database and type Notes.

Come back into Personal accounts and press the button with your new Personal accounts. Select Activate and come back into Settings.

  Select Add new.Select settings Sync and BackupChoose Sync with server

Choose data for transfer after your choose Server Sync. Press the button Done, Server Sync again and synchronisation will see on your screem.

   Select Server Sync Choose everything, what you need synchronise and press the button Done. Synchronisation will be done.

After your phone is synchronized, go back to your PhoneCopy online profile (probably you will have it still open in the browser since you activated your account) and accept the assignment of your phone to the account. If you do it within the hour after the synchronization, the phone will be assigned automatically and you will only need to confirm the process. If the delay is greater than one hour, you will be asked by the server for the cellphone's identification number, called IMEI. This number can be easily found under the battery of the cellphone, or you can type in the symbols *#06# and the IMEI will appear on the display.
