Hi guys!

I've been using Samsung Galaxy Note 2 for years and finally decided to upgrade. I opted for LG v20 and it should be arriving shortly. Samsung Kies 3 is a great tool to backup data including SMS, Photos, Videos, Contacts etc...

I was wondering how can I transfer my whole data from Note 2 to LG v20?

I've briefly checked LG's website and there seems to be a backup tool but it works only with their brand of phones and it may not have all the options like Samsung Kies 3 (I will have to check it out once I get my phone)

So, what is the best way to transfer specially my SMS and Contacts from one android phone to the other? (Samsung to LG)

Thanks!
 


I am logged into google on my Note 2 but my default option to save any contact detail is on the device memory, I will see if it brings all the contacts but how will it import all the old SMS to LG dating months / years back stored on Note 2? My understanding is all the messages are stored on device and not online.
