Switching from BBerry Q10: easy way to switch over and import contacts and such?

[TehKhy]

Hi folks,
After 6.5ish year of Blackberry, I've moved over to a S7. Has anyone else done the same and found an easy way to swap over your contacts, txt logs, etc? Messages and phone logs aren't that big to me, but I do need to keep my contacts. I think there has to some others that have made the switch from a BB10 device, so anything you can pass along would be greatly appreciated!

Use Samsung SmartSwitch. It can work for Blackberry devices. Just check out their website.

After transferring them, copy them to your Google account. They will live in the cloud from then on & when you get a new device after that, when you sign into your Google account, they will automatically be there.

Yes. Put them in your google account!! Then you alway have them.

I don't think SmartSwitch works with BBOS 10 devices from everything I read. I was able to find a berry app, Contacts ImEx, that can dump your contacts to .vcf or csv then imported to google. I highly recommend going vcf to import to google; the csv didn't pull anyone's names correctly and I had 80something no name contacts!

Any ideas for msg and call logs? Pics and music are all on a memory card, so that's all good and moved over.

Samsung's own website says it works with BB10, complete with download links.
