Transfer contacts, SMS messages, photos, etc with kies from Samsung Galaxy (S3) to Galaxy S4

transfer from samsung galaxy s3 to galaxy s4

After unboxing the Samsung Galaxy S4 in a previous article, as well as taking the first steps such as setting up for the first time, microsim, gmail, Location, etc, it's time to transfer data as contacts, posts SMS, calendar, music, Photographs y videos, from our old phone, to the new Samsung Galaxy S4.

In this video and as an example, we transfer data from the Samsung Galaxy S3. This procedure is the same for other models of android phones Samsung galaxy .

As we mentioned in the video, we must have the latest version of the Samsung Kies program installed on our computer, be it Windows or Mac, from which we leave you the link below to download it.

  • Samsung Kies

Before connecting the 2 phones, it is convenient to disable firewalls or antivirus security packages, so that there are no connection problems between the devices and the connection to the USB port of the computer.

If we have correctly performed the steps discussed in the video, we will have the Samsung Galaxy S4 with the data from our previous Galaxy, contacts, calendar, SMS messages, videos, photos and music.

This and other videos, you can find them in our Todoandroids channel on youtube. You can subscribe if you consider our content interesting. In this channel, you will find videos about the Samsung Galaxy Ace, Footnotes, S2, S3, Mini2, Sony Xperia S, among others.

Downloading the Samsung Galaxy S4 user manual and instructions, you will be able to perform most procedures and get the most out of this marvel of technology.

    Kies does NOT work like in video
    Updated Kies 3.2.15013_17. Firewall removed. An S3 and an S4. Windows 7
    When I connect the two before booting K3 tells me to unplug one of them
    When I connect them afterwards, the second one doesn't take it whichever is the second one.
    In Backup/restore the third tab Transfer to another device does not appear.
    What I can do?

    It won't let you plug in both at the same time.
    i9300 and i9505 don't let Kies3 plug them in at the same time.
    The program asks me to leave one unplugged.
    ¿??

    Hello, I think that if you have android 4 on the S4.3, it is the kies 3, but the normal one.

    Export the contacts of the z10, through menus in the contacts app and the exported file, you import it in the S4.
