How can I do this?

Also I think it's wrong place to post but just checking if I use low quality chargers will that effect my phone in anyways?
I recently bought a charger for LG Optimus net for Rs 60 and whenever I'm charging the phone it doesn't let me use the phone. I mean the phone will be locked and unless I remove the plug I cant unlock it. Could this be the charger?

okay.. I upgraded from my Galaxy Apollo to Moto Atrix 2 (ICS) .

I need suggestion on a couple of applications.

1. Best Theft-Protection application? (paid or free both will do)
1.2. Do I need a AV ? most AV has theft protection.. but which one is the best??? (paid or free both will do)?
2. Any way to bypass/block ads without rooting?
3. Need cloud storage.. I think I will give Ubuntu One a try. Negative on Skydrive and Google Drive, need to check terms of DropBox.

For export and import you can use default contact application. You will get both options there.
For single contact if you long press the contact you might get option to send that contact as sms depending upon your contact app and android version

It's not backup yaar. Suppose my friend needs a contact details which is there in my phone I need to send those details.

Also I'm having one more new problem for the past couple of days I'm unable to receive any SMS's though I'm able to send them. I remember 3 days ago I had my phone memory full which may have caused this. But after that I deleted the SMS's but still getting the same problem. I contacted the Airtel CC and they asked me to check the message delivery number which is correct. Anything else I can try from my end to fix this problem?

^^Inability to receive messages is definitely due to low memory. And deleting messages won't help. You will have to gain memory by removing some apps.
Android starts to give warnings once the free memory reaches less than 20%.

To send contacts I use whatsapp if target phone is Android. If not I simply copy number manually to send through message.

Install Lookout Security for 1 and 2.

I also use Dropbox and Ubuntu One.

No idea about 2.

I don't know if this send contact option is there or not in previous versions of Android (Gingerbread etc)

As I replied earlier you can use different contact app to send individual contact as sms or email.
Eg rocket dial, go contact etc

Is this app safe to use. Its actually restarting the core and all apps and not actually rebooting the device normally. I mean killing all the apps at once will do any damage ?Fast reboot

using it since a year. it simply removes all running applications from ram so the necessary ones start up while the rest don't. completely safe.

Is 26 MB not sufficient?

Try to get rid of some apps from phone memory or atleast move them to memory card. See if that resolves the problem.
