Would have liked to see initial steps clarified before going through these steps: which of the two phones should have the SIM card (as normally, you pass it from one to the other)? Should the general phone setup be done first or should nothing be done before using Samsung Switch?
You'd generally leave it as it is(meaning your sim is in your old phone before and during the transfer)and then transfer your data once it's done turn off both devices and insert SIM into the new device
that was the easiest I ever unlocked a phone in my life... thank you! I did set the date to june 30th on my pc as suggested in the comments and I also installed samsung usb drivers, neither the phone nor pc was connected to the internet after the software was installed and It just worked.
Thank you so much for this video. I have a question; I use Samsung S9+ with 128GB internal memory and a sd card storage 32GB, and would like to transfer data to my new Samsung A34 with 128GB internal memory and a sd card storage 128GB. Now, while transferring the data from my old phone to new phone, would the sd card storage 32GB data be transferred to the internal memory of my new phone or the sd card storage 128GB? I am really confused here, help would be appreciated.
Great Vid! Does this process transfer all the contents from the sd card on my old phone to the internal memory on my new phone? I'm going from S20 Ultra (which currently runs 1 128GB SD card, 1 Sim card and 1 eSIM to my new S23 Ultra - which apparently will not allow sd card storage therefore its all internal storage. Also will it also transfer an eSIM?
If eSIMs work the way I think they do, I believe you have to contact the carrier you bought the eSIM from to make the transfer happen. If the eSIM was not bought through a carrier, then the eSIM from your old phone has to be deactivated, then reactivated on your new phone.
How do you get the SIM card out of the old phone and where and how do you put it in the new phone...I'm a newbie to this. The store always did it for you in the past...I'm kinda lost
Will this app work if your copy from your old Samsung to a different brand phone? On my old phone I have apps on both the internal storage and on the SDcard storage. Will it copy from both to the new phone?
since this is a year old I probably wont get a reply but. dose this work for apps? my old phone as a magnification app and I can't find one comparable to it on my new phone only ones with adds or... WHO PUTS ADDS IN A FRACKING MAGNIFYING GLASS APP/
@stevehoward677 what this guy told you is bull shit. As someone who has done hundreds of transfers this year alone because of my job. If you have a usb-c cord just use that for the transfer. It transfers the data much faster than using wifi.
I'm sure this would be very helpful if I had got as far as seeing that sort of screen on my new phone. :( I have loaded Smart Switch on the old phone but cannot get onto the new phone to load it there. :(
What do you mean just plug in to the old "charging cable"? You can't connect two phones like that as on the other end it's USB ending.... I mean how...🤔🤔
Are you serious? Like, you've never seen a type C to type C sync cable before? They're like 5 bucks. Hell, some are even in the checkout isle of a store.
Thanks for the video. I did it when 1st got my new fone. After I had a problem with my fone, took it for repair and I used old one for time being. When I got my new one back, tried to transfer the data, it didn't transfer all for some reason!! Like watsap msges and pictures/videos. Can someone help pls?
Would this work with a 9-year old phone like the Galaxy S5 Neo? The app store says it can be installed, but it has the old micro-USB port so I doubt it would fit the new cable for modern phones (USB-C?). Maybe there's an adapter or something? Anyone try this?
I need help. I used a cable to transfer everything from my old phone. Now my new phone has the exact layout of my old phone. How do i change my new phones layout so its not the same as my old phone
I wasn't able to transfer by cable. For this to work you need a cable that works with the USB format on both phones, some sort of double USB cable. Charger cable is not equipped that way in any of my three Samsung Galaxy phones.
@@anitamogra858 you should have a usb-c to usb-c cable in the box but not the power block as they dont provide them anymore to save on costs. if you dont have one you need to go back to where you got the phone and tell them
I have all my apps organized.. Does it take over all the apps in the designated maps.. Since it took a lot of time to organize all my apps..and isnt the first step to put the simcard in the new phone or first transfer
please how can you transfer everything from your old note9 Samsung phone to a new Samsung phone when the old phone is having the screen problem how can you transfer it I always do updates on the old phone
WhatsApp has encrypted messages which should be backed up in the cloud (I think Google drive) and therefore it won't be transferred to new phone. The settings might, but not the messages.
This was really helpful. Was able to move not just my files, but also my settings.
Really amazing
Even apps will be moved ?
Cool

Exactly my question!
Yep, my question too

what about the sim card, do we transfer the sim card first to the new phone?
Does this method also automatically transfer saved passwords from the old Samsung?
good video, do you do this before swapping the sim from the old phone to the new ?
Can do this before or after, it doesn't affect the data being transferred
Straight to the point. Helpful video. Thanks.

Thanks for this guide! Very reminisce of the link cable between Gameboys
does it transfer SD card files as well I wonder, thanks for the clear and concise vid.
it does
Thank you so much. With your help I was able to transfer the data from the old phone to the new one.

All I have is the regular charger phone cable. Do I need a special cable that will connect to both phones ?
Would be useful to show what to do from step 1 ie from setting up the new sim card etc.... Good video anyway 👍🏽
Will this work for Samsung tablets as well?

This was truly very helpful indeed. Thank you very much. FANTASTIC.
About to buy the S23. Curry’s charge £20 for doing transfers but having seen this I’ll have a go myself. Thanks.
Does it matter whether the SIM card is installed in the new phone before or after the transfer?
No. Connect through wifi
What happens after if i factory reset my old phone after tranfering data to my new phone?

You can do this without cable u need to do it via wifi
Thank you I was transferring because my USB cable don't work and got scared 😅
Is it better to do via cable or wifi?
@@stevehoward677: I have done it with cable (usb using WiFi) WiFi is easier due to a stronger signal

@@abraxas6326 If you meant my comment 4 weeks ago,i meant USB -C cable to cable using Smart Switch,on a WiFi signal.
Hello. I want to ask. Is Whatapp data also transferred using Samsung smart switch?

So what if my charge port on my s10 plus doesnt work? Im trying to find a decent way to switch my stuff to my s23 ultra😅 im struggling
Awesome instructions! Thank you so much!

Don't need to use cable at all for these phones...
Lier
My phone seems to be working, but my screen is out. Just bought an A54. Is there a way to do this transfer or am i SOL. Thanks
My screen went black on my last phone. The tech at the store told me there was no way to transfer data, since we couldn't see to open the phone.
Where did you get that 2 side cable
Exactly. The cable I got on the new phone is c-to-c whereas the old phone has an old plugtype
Is the cable with two C ends coming with the New phone?
Memory card data from old phone will also be transferred???
Thank you so clear and easy to understand.
Do you need to be connected to wi fi to do the smart switch?
Yes But how to transfer them if your old phone screen shutterd
😢
can i do this if the samsung phone is old and uses microusb transfering to galaxys21fe
I'm sure this would be very helpful if I had got as far as seeing that sort of screen on my new phone. :(

Thank you so much. This was really helpful! ❤God bless you
Thank you im not so good with this high tech,So I down load smart switch and all my Pics and videos transfered successfully
Did you need a cord from phone to phone?
When you go custom and transfer messages why don't the MMS files transfer as well?
wow thanks...what if you don't have a cable? can it be done via wifi?
Yeah done this before and I never needed a cable. Smart switch is always through Bluetooth regardless
Does the data on the old phone gets deleted after the transfer?
No you have to do a factory reset.
My smart switch keep crashing on the old phone - do u know why and what can I do? I've tried all the fix'es and nothing works 😳
What do you mean just plug in to the old "charging cable"? You can't connect two phones like that as on the other end it's USB ending.... I mean how...🤔🤔
Both those phones have a USB "C" female charge port. If you have a USB C charger brick the cable it uses is a double male USB C.
Are you serious? Like, you've never seen a type C to type C sync cable before? They're like 5 bucks. Hell, some are even in the checkout isle of a store.
you won't have if you have never had that type of charger before though would you? ... first i seen it was with my new phone.
thank you so much for your help i relly appreciate ❤❤❤❤

"Everything" MISSED SO MANY FILES and also did NOT enable my Samsung Health or Wear on my new phone, among *many* other apps. :(
What if you can't see 80% of your old phone's screen but it still works
Does the transfer include data from WhatsApp as well?
WhatsApp has encrypted messages which should be backed up in the cloud (I think Google drive) and therefore it won't be transferred to new phone. The settings might, but not the messages.
does it also copy the micro sd card?
I had done that bt seems like app wont be copy , just data
Can old device also the data if the old phone new
I just want to transfer videos and pictures. How do I do that?
