I used Smart Switch to transfer my contacts from my Blackberry Leap to my S8 but can't find them. They are not in my S8 contacts list...

Try going to contacts - drop down - Manage Contacts and the Import/Export contacts and see if any of the Import functions there that might help.

Thanks, but tried that, but no luck. Have tried to synch and import several times. They are hidden somewhere on the S8.

That doesn't help. My contacts are still in my old phone but still not able to find them in my S8. Any other suggestions?

You could try doing the old school way of transferring contacts. If you have an SD card for the devices try exporting the contacts to the SD card on your blackberry and then insert the SD card into your Samsung and import from SD card. I believe there is also a way to transfer through Bluetooth.

Are the contacts saved on the Leap itself? Or linked to an account?

Another thing you can try is use Smart Switch from your blackberry to a PC, and then a PC to your Samsung S8.

Thanks, but the new version of Smart Switch doesn't seem to have the pc option. I luckily don't have too many and did it manually. Thanks for all the help though.
