How to migrate Windows Phone Contacts to Android Phone


When I changed my phone from Windows (Dell Venue Pro) to Android (Galaxy S 3), the first challenging task was, how to transfer all the contacts from Windows Phone to Android? Here is the trick

  • 1.       Since your windows phone synchronizes your contacts with your Hotmail/live account, all these contacts are available on cloud. Open your Hotmail/live account and go to Contacts.
  • 2.       Select Manage and “Export”.
  • 3.       It will export all your contacts to .csv file.
  • 4.       Now go and open your Gmail account.
  • 5.       Select Contacts, More and “Import”.
  • 6.       Import the .csv file as windows comma separated file.
  • 7.       Once Import is finished, Go back to your new Android phone and synchronizes Google Contacts.


All your contacts will be on your new phone now. Enjoy.
