A Series & Other MobileI have a SGH-S275 flip phone.
Preamble:
Phone broke when dropped and consequently, the flip is a flop so bought a new one. Galaxy S24.
New phone won't be used or can it.
I need to transfer images to anything that will/might work; a USB, a SIM adapter to desktop (Windows 7, 10, or 11 or Linux (Ubuntu, PureOS, or PopOS) My preference is Win 7 or Ubuntu.
The manual does not go deep enough about transfers or data recover from sim.
QUESTION:
Are customers permitted to remove the SIM and insert it into an adapter attached to desktop, or laptop, and copy images from SIM to Desktop? Is there such a possibility?
I already searched elsewhere.
Just tried to submit this and get the old "Correct the highlighted errors and try again." without highlighting anything. š”

p.s. I hate that antique Google 'Find the sidewalks, then the trains, then the cars, then hydrants, and then cars again... Google has invisible trackers that don't require user clicking through a silly game.

A Series & Other Mobile@user_ams007 ..."Samsung Smart Switch app via a laptop or desktop, It will allow you to backup your data and then transfer it to your new phone"
I'd rather not keep anything personal on any of latest phones so I still rather transfer pics to a desktop or laptop.
Too, I should have mentioned that When I start the FlipFlop š all I get is the keyboard lights up with the battery charging icon with "Battery fully charged"... then screen goes blank.
Tried all kinds of things; pushing buttons, holding start button (or only button other than volume up/down).
Thanks any way @user_ams007 I really appreciate your help,

A Series & Other MobileHi @user_ams007
I took your advice and got the Samsung Smart Switch program.
I noted that it didn't include Windows, just IOs and Android, but on another screen I was able to get the Windows version.
Once I charged the phone back up, I removed the charger, and using a cable plugged the cables USB Micro B in to the phone, and the other end with the USB Type A in to the Win desktop. The phone lit up. Using the Samsung Smart Switch, it connected to the phone and I just grabbed the folders I wanted and copied them over to the desktop.
I could see everything. Nothing was connected to the Internet.
I could not find the text message - not that they were needed but they are not available, at least not w/ Samsung Smart Switch.
Pictures were stored on the phone after all.
I'm done. Got what was needed, thanks to you and couple of others here.
Thanks to all,
~k
PS, Please someone tell Samsung koders that Googles spy, that game of clicking on bikes, sidewalks, etcetera is ancient and darned annoying.

A Series & Other Mobile@Kar Ma That is an antique. It uses Android 4 from 2011. It doesn't have a USB port. I think it only has cellular connection, no Wifi or bluetooth.
You can always take out the SIM but I doubt the photos are stored on the SIM. They are typically stored in internal memory on phones of that vintage.

A Series & Other Mobile@LongHiker "I have a time accepting that Samsung would store such important stuff where it can't be access on a failure. Perhaps you meant stored on a cloud (another server computer)?"
The power port can be used with any USB Micro-Type B to USB-Type A. I have it connected to a Win 7 desktop for now and it's charged up on that, but Win 7 can't find a driver for it.
When I plugged it in w/ propitiatory adapter, I get the same as if using it attached to any computer, just no OS booting either way.
"internal memory" being a partitioned RAM chip cause I doubt any kind of SSD was available back then.
Is it possible, even probable, that docs, images, texts etcetera are store in the Samsung cloud? If that's the case, maybe Samsung, for a fee of course, is able to recover that! I thought you or other might know how to get what is somewhere, on to something we can store - like my own server!
To be clear, I just want the pics - nothing else is needed.

A Series & Other Mobile@Kar Ma "internal memory" as a type of flash or eeprom. RAM is cleared when power is removed.
FWIW, any photos on this device are going to be very low quality. The camera is a 1.3 MP camera.
