I had my 7650 stolen and the only file where my phones are is contacts.cdb that I revert it from 88.dat with PC suite tweaker. Could anyone tell me how to make it readable? My temporary phone is samsung v200 so I want a file like txt. Maybe I could send someone contacts.cdb and after reverting it with his 7650 send it back to me.... Any help would be valuable..

Umm yeah the contacts.cdb can't be spilt open and looked at with any program that i know of, so i think the best idea is find a friend who's got a Nokia 7650, backup his phone to a PC, and then replace the contacts file in the backup with your contacts file, restore to the phone and you can access your contact list now..

Then if you wanna, you can send the contacts (from the phonebook) to your PC via a communication link (bluetooth or Infrared), and they'll be saved as a Business card on your PC..
Cheers

Thank you but I found a solution easiest and fastest. I downloaded SDK kit for Symbian Phones. Then I put inside the contacts.cdb and run the emulator. So I read all my phones! :D :D :D

...or force-open it with Wordpad, you can see the contacts although some garbage data will be seen also. Better than nothing if you really need to see some important contact number.
