Sim contacts read wrong, doesnt lookup contacts in new sms

Hey everyone, having an issue with my TYTN II.
The contacts from my sim card have gone all weird.
They show up the second word first and do strange things.
i.e. if i had jim - john it shows up as -jim john.
if i had james c it shows up as c;james etc
and when im typing an SMS it wont autofind them, i have to hit the "to:" button and go in and find them, and its messed up cause its reading the names wrong...
Any help appreciated!

Hi mate,
I guess you did check the options of the contacts list... didn't you?
I don't think the Kaiser would mess them up without any external input
Err... although yesterday my Kaiser erased the whole contact list without saying a word! ...and against my will!

Had not checked the options, but did just then, couldnt find anything to change it
all of the contacts have a /1 after them, forgot to add that.
any thoughts?
cheers

Trouble with contacts

Hi everyone!
New to PDA phones! Im having trouble with adding contacts to my TyTN II, once added they don't show up in the contact list. It shows them in SIM manager and if i copy them to contacts from there they still dont show up! Also is there any way i can copy the contacts from my old N73 onto the TyTN II to save me hours of time???
Cheers guys!

Ok, so i have just bluetoothed all my contacts from the N73 to the TyTN II and saved them to my contact list but they still dont show up in the contacts!!! When i try to send the same contact again it asks to overwrite the contact already saved, same when i try to create a new one!! Its doing my head in!! Any ideas anyone?

sim
you need to go to your contacts in your sim and select all and then copy to contacts. that should help i think well thats what i did and all show up ok what rom are you using ie the origonal or have you flashed your rom with one like duty or alex ? as thire are a couple of cap files to fix bugs depending on which rom you use. i hope this helps as i know you have said you did that all ready.

I bluetoothed all the contacts straight to the phone, they are all there to copy to sim and when people call me it shows who is calling but when i go into the contacts list its blank. I have copied them to the sim card (they all show up in sim manager) and tried copying them back! No luck
I am running the original ROM

sim
sorry i cant help i know thire is an option to choose to use either sim for contacts or the phones contacts. but not sure where it is i think it might be in system then phone but dont take my word for it hope fully m8 some one on here who is more advanced than me might help you out. good luck

Cheers anyway buddy! I have had to put it down for now before i throw it on the floor! You cant get something good with no teething problems.

Contact list problems~!!!

i know, stupid question but i really don't know what to do. the thing is all my contacts on my sim card i've copy to the "my contacts" in my device. the thing is now everytime i go to my contact list i see doubled of every single contact on my list. i know there is a way to filter but it is not permanat. so i was wondering is there a way to view only "my contacts" without viewing the sim's contact on the same list permanatly?

Use the search. There's plenty of reading of this problem

open Contacts Tab -
Menu
Sim Manager
Should work. Don't see any reason why it shouldn't

ahh but it should work.. however whenever i press on Sim Manager.. it just doesnt do anything so i cant get to any of my contacts.. i just updated my ROM so that could be the issue?

How to delete locked contacts

In my contacts I have 5 contacts with a icon similar to the sim card icon, with a lock on them.
The contacts have the name '<Unnamed>'
I do not know how these contacts got there in the first place. I do not have the option to delete/edit and the contacts are empty.
How do I get rid of them?

I have the same problem . they appeared after i installed the 6.1 rom. They appear to be the phone provider numbers (vodafone). They all have lcoks on them and i cant remove them either.

I have the same problem with my Orange TyTN II with Windows Mobile 6.1.
This is just one of the many, many reasons I despise Microsoft. They are trying to turn computers into something that they and other large corporations control instead of the paying customer. And as for Orange, well, it seems their management or software development team - or both! - are complete morons.
Can anyone give me a clue how to get rid of these annoying intrusions?

try
HKCU\ControlPanel\Phone\ShowSim 0 = hide, 1 = show

Yes, this are pre-set contacts on your SIM card. They are saved on your SIM by your service provider. The editing of the above registry key lets you at least hide the SIM contacts in your contact list. That does not mean they are no longer there, you just do not have to see them any longer.

I was able to delete them using SBSH's PocketBreeze. I just went to Contacts Tabs and it let me delete them.

Unnamed new contacts
I have a little problem and I don't know how to fix it.
I have contacts only on my mobile phone, on my sim card is empty-see contacts on sim card is disable.
When I got new call, from unknown person, I have info that I can add this contact to my list as a new or add to already exist. I want add as a new, so i'm writing all important info: name,last name,number... and new contact I see as a "unnamed". PLEASE .. help me fix it.

U need to have the contact on the phone, edit it, and there is a option to give a ringtone to that contact. If u want to assign tone to a group, u need some 3rd party software.

thank you for your answer!

Use the goddamn search button.

Get Kaisertweak (search in this forum) and there is an option to disable SIM contacts.
