First you need to get both devices and turn Bluetooth on. Then on your N8, go to Menu – Settings – Phone switch. Then select the middle icon (receive data).

On your N8 you will be given some options of what data you would like to receive. Select the data types you want, and press Ok.

On your old phone you should be asked if you want to Allow synchronisation, so select Yes. Your data transfer should begin. Be patient as it may take awhile depending on how much data you want to transfer
