I did receive one suggestion that made sense: copy the contacts list to
the phone itself, insert new SIM, transfer copy to new SIM.

Well, it sounds OK. Has anyone any experience?  And if so, some directions?



Yes. I have done this both ways several times without problem

It's admirable to know how to do that. But for safety's sake I'd just do an
"ls > myrename.sh"
then edit the file manually.

Think of what could happen to your bank statements with the slightest

For me, I'd personally play it safe and edit the rename file.
