Hello, i have a 2G on Tmo network...How do i save all my contacts to my SIM Card??

Not sure how. But, I guess I have to ask why?

Alternatively, sync your iPhone with your PC/Outlook, then sync again with your new/replacement device...

You don't, the iPhone does not use the SIM for anything other than getting you on the network.

My iPhone sim card has ALL my contacts i had on my old phone (NOT iPhone). In fact the old sim card is what's in my iphone.

I moved from a Moto Razr to an iPhone 3G and I was able to save all my contacts on the sim and import them on my iPhone. The only downside is I had to do some editing to each one because Moto's formatting is a little different from Apple's.

Are you sure you can't save to SIM? Check in Settings?

You can't save to the sim from the iPhone. You can only import from a sim.

If you need to save from an iPhone to another source, use google sync with your existing gmail account. I never have to worry about losing my contacts and any changes made are pushed to my phone or to my google account.

Shouldn't really hyjack someone's thread...

Nonethless, you could sync with Outlook if you have it, then export to Google Gmail contacts...

Use iTunes to sync to your address book then sync your backup phone and use it to save contacts to sim. This will only work if your b/o phone can sync to your address book.
