Q: Is it necessary to connect the UME to a PC in order for it to work?
A: The UME is a stand-alone solution that does not require a PC in order for it to work. A PC connection is needed when you wish to upgrade your UME software allowing for support of new handsets or, when you want to upload and save customers’ phonebook on removable media or a central server.

Q: Does the phone have to be powered on when performing a phonebook content transfer?
A: Most phones with the exception of some older versions of Motorola handsets must be powered on. See the list in this site.

Q: I want to transfer phonebook content to a Smartphone - How can I find if the client is already loaded to the phone?
A: Look for a file name "PHBxcg" or "CelleBrite" in the phone. Note that the location of the file changes from one phone to another. Open the file and activate the IrDA from its menu. In any case, it is recommended to upload the client again since the UME might contain a newer version of the client’s information

Q: How do I upgrade my UME unit to support a newly introduced handset?
A: Update software to support the arrivals of new handsets to your market will be sent from CelleBrite by Email. You need to connect your UME to the PC, install the Utility program (found in the UME kit or this web site) activate it and indicate the upgrade file. Select the "Upgrade Firmware" option on your UME menu, and start the upgrade. Progress is indicated on the UME screen, and the UME will shuts down when the upgrade is complete.

Q: How long does it take to transfer information from one phone to another?
A: The information transfer speed is determined by the size of the memory transferred and by the handset manufacturer and its utilization of the Communication Port into the phone memory.

Q: What will happen if I’ll try to transfer more numbers then my new phone can hold?
A: The UME first reads the information to be transferred. Then, it transfers the numbers according to the order you have indicated. Once the phone capacity is reached, any numbers beyond the capacity limit will not be written into the new phone.

Q: Can I transfer information from more than one phone at a time?
A: Only one phone should be plugged into the source and target side at one time. The three ports on each side of the UME are for redundancy purposes only.

Q: I keep getting the message: ’reading failed - check cable’ on my screen?
A: Make sure the source-phone data port is clear of dust and debris. We recommend cleaning the port with rubbing alcohol and a toothbrush before connecting the cable.

Q: I have a faulty UME unit - who should I contact?
A: Contact your local CelleBrite Distributor; See the support section for details.

Q: What do I do if I have a faulty UME unit and I want to send it for repair?
A: Follow RMA procedure and be sure to tell CelleBrite in advance regarding this shipment. The RMA procedure form can be found in the download section of this site.

Q: I have a phone with name and numbers stored in its memory. I have another phone with additional numbers in its memory. Can I add the numbers from one phone to the other?
A: The addition of numbers to existing memory is possible by uploading both phonebooks to a PC and performing a merge of the files. The newly merged file can then be downloaded to the handset.

Q: What is the foam around the pins in some cables?
A: The foam is placed around the pins in order to protect them during shipping. Remove the foam protection before using the cable.

Q: Some Nokia phones call for battery removal in order to use the cables. How do I operate those cables?
A: Some Nokia handsets do not have a standard external connector. These handsets require the removal of the battery and in some cases the SIM in order to connect to the phone. Refer to the "Complicated Cables" instructions document in the download section of this site.
