In order to disable showing SIM contacts in pocket Outlook and accordingly in Spb Diary I set the following registry key to 0:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER/ControlPanel/Phone/ShowSIM\Ok another issue, after resetting the phone, the value goes back to 1.
So:
1- Hide sim contacts works only for contacts app not spb diary
2- Resetting the phone redisplays sim contacts.
Im fixing issue 1 with spb forums, but what the heck is up with issue # 2?
After updating the registry, try power off+power on. This forces flushing the registry to flash memory.
I did that, I changed the value and then powered down for a minute or two then powered up again and still shows sim contacts.
My simple program which change registry value after Soft Rest (precisely speaking one minute after SR). Install cab - thats all
Enjoy

Hi
Anybody knows how to show only contacts and not SIM contacts plus contacts?
Modifying the register we can do that by changing at Register Current_User - ControlPanel - Phone, ShowSim from 1 to 0. However making a soft-reset (and we need to do soft reset a lot of times), something reset again that parameter to 1.
Thanks for help

try http://pocketcm.com it'll only display the contacts since it doesn't support SIM. looks nicer too and FREE.
got tired of the reg hack not sticking after a reset.
Is pocketcm still the only way to isolate the contacts? Thanks

I have an annoying new sms alert that wont go away.
Ive discussed it here before and the problem didnt go away. I did enter the registry and manually zeroed the unread counter but it still shows a new sms everytime i receive a new sms.
So ive decided to hard-reset. So that I have a fresh new device.
Now my question is, can I restore my contacts-sms-mms and appointments using PIM backup from dotfred.net?
Meaning I will back up now, hard reset then restore. Does it defeat the purpose of hard resetting?
Also, I have several SPB apps like diary - mobile shell and so on. They all have backup settings options which I use. After ive hard resetted, can I re-install these apps and then restore to previous settings or will this also defeat the purpose of a hard reset?
Thanks guys!
A hard reset will more than likely not fix this. What you are having is a network issue, not a hardware one. What's the message you keep on getting?
For some reason, I dont think its a network issue.
I receive no message.
This is how it is. Ill soft reset, and upon start up it will say I have a new sms, but no new sms exists (thoroughly searched all inbox folders).
So ill go to the following directory in the registry:
HKEY_Current_User\System\State\Messages\SMS\Unread and then set the count value to 0.
For some reason, I have 2 items under Unread.
Count 1 (0x000001)
Text SMS \ MMS (1)
After I set it to 0, the bottom string still shows SMS \ MMS (1)
In the past, ive deleted the Text SMS \ MMS (1) string and restarted, but it keeps coming back.
Lets assume it is, what do I need to do to clear it?
is their a way to show only the contacts on phone memory? It shows both my contacts on sim and phone memory. Or do i just have to delete my sim contacts? I got the Tilt with the att wm6 rom
use Schapps Advanced Config
search the forums for download
ok, i'm in a good mood, i'll attach cab.
wow, nice program. thx a bunch!
Having same problem, SIM contacts show even after checking DO NOT SHOW with Schapps Advanced Config and then soft reset. If I don't do SR SIM contacts do not show.
Use Kaiser tweak (a must have!!!) - you have there an option that says:
Contacts
\Sim Contacts
"Show or hide the contacts stored on your SIM card from the Contact screen. Note: This option is reset when you reset your device"
Slide Options:
Show (default)
Hide (Advised)
Select "Hide"
That should take care of it...

CAB in post 5 worked on my device, Thanks.
I've used fixunreadcount.cab, tried turning off threaded messages and deleting from there, but nothing works! It says I have 1 unread SMS, when NOTHING IS IN ANY OF THEM. I am NOT going to hard reset, i put too much into this phone
might it be an MMS waiting to be downloaded?
Hey,
if you have a registry editor on your device, please check the following registry key:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\System\State\Messages\sms\Unread]
You should find under it the following entry: "Count"
Try to set its value to dword:00000000 - afterwards exit the reg editor, open shortly another program to give the device time to correctly store the value, then soft reset your device.

I randomly have to fix this myself.. Sometimes I'll get a text message and it'll beep multiple times, as if I have multiple SMS, but when I read 'em I only find one, but the unread count is 2, so once I read it, it's still 1. Then I have to go in and edit that registry key.
Very annoying. I wonder if anyone has made a simple program that 0's out all of those unread keys to make 'fixing' this simple?
It is just not worth the effort to write a tiny little program for it.
Simply export your REGISTRY KEY once it is set to "0", then import it whenever it is needed ...
maybe U guys can look here...
was having the same problem...

After a phone crash, moving data to a sd card with activesync, i lost nearly all tabs on the phone settings. I just have the tabs to set the ringtone, services and the network selector. Settings like band/pin/pin2 etc are gone... Also when calling, you can use the numbers to look up a contact, this functionality is also broken. I'm using a stock rom and only have SPB shell installed. I also checked the registry in HLM/Software/OEM/phonesettings and all settings are set to 1. How can i fix this?
