Why don't you sync to Outlook and delete everything from Outlook? That way all your contacts on the phone gets deleted and the only thing visible would be SIM contacts.
Go to programs > system Tools > Advanced Config and scroll down to phone. Choose Show Sim contacts and change the value at the bottom to NO.

Please read before posting. OP wants to only show SIM contacts.
<EDIT> Decided to keep looking through the forum and found this post. I'll try it tonight. Thanks.

Is this something that is only available in Dutty's ROM or should I see this on my Tilt with the standard ROM I purchased the device with? I would love to be able to turn off the SIM view if I could. Considering flashing the ROM, but not sure I want to jump in yet (I'm no techie!).
Thanks,
JoJo
No there is the KAisersimfix.cab, the program just mentioned above and the Kaisertweak. All of which is searchable.
You're too quick! I kept on searching while you were replying and ended up finding it.
Thanks.

I'm using duttythroy 's rom now, and loving it. this is my second time using the touch cube, and i noticed you cant use your sim contacts in the cube, but on the htc home screen you can. is there a way to allow this?
I'm looking to answer this as well, please help!
Alright, well I figured it out man. In case others are wondering or stumble upon this thread in a search, you have to copy the contacts from the sim to the phone. Its very easy just go into Programs > SIM Manager > Menu > Select All > Save To Contacts
I have sim contacts on my cube and it works great.
I would also like to be able to add the contacts from the SIM card. I don't want to copy my contacts to the phone just to be able to add them on to the cube - there must be a way of adding them from the SIM card only. Does anybody have any ideas how to do this?
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...
Try my KaiserSimFix: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334702
Continues to work even after soft-reset for OEM roms.

CAB in post 5 worked on my device, Thanks.
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

thx it helped a lot, but one more question. if i want to view back the sim contacts wt do i do?
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?
Contact language
How to change language for the alphabet of the native VM6.5 contact list?
I know this can be changed, and to my embarrisment I cannot find it on here anymore on how to do this. Could anyone please tell me the reg value I need to change to not have my TD show surnames first (who tought up this idiot setting to begin with?).
you can change it, go into contacts, edit and change it in "file as"

funny enough, that doesn't really matter. At least not with the built in BT carkit in my C4 picasso. It will still show firstname/surname.
If there is indeed a registry key to change this, I would like to know. Perhaps that DOES give the result I am hoping for.
how i writr my contacts is as follows ( works in outlook contacts aswell ) where you have to put first ,name ,middle ,last, etc just write the full name in the first name column e.g you would write the name John Smith ,with john in the first column and smith in the last colume ,but just write john smith in the first column and it should be ok .hope you understand.
This is a way of entering/adding NEW contacts to the phone. As I understood, sjaak1234 wants to change this display mode for the contacts already in the phone. Manually editting of each contact is not a good way to follow...say you have 400 contacts...edit each one of them? Gee...I event don't wanna think about it.
An easier way (as I did it in the past since I couldn't find another way) is to export your contacts from Outlook into Excel, than concatenate the two text strings "First Name" and "Last Name" into one single text string (under "First Name" for ex) and import back the file in Outlook. Then, by syncing you should get the adress book properly sorted and displayed. It should take no more than 10 min.
That's in Outlook But that setting does not exist on my phone

If you want your Contacts to be displayed as First name then Last name, use this cab else this one for the reverse.

Carty..
That's great,
thanks a lot

Um,
it is great but.... what do I do? I installed it and nothing has changed in my Contacts. What am I missing?
Patrick
edit: found it, I have to tap on a contact in the contact list and select first-last and do that with every contact. I get it

Thats a standard feature, you don't need to install anything to get that.
In that case I realy don't understand what installing the cab has added

Dude in the stock contacts app follow these steps and you can save your conacts to sim and also view sim contacts
Hit Menu > More > Display Options > Sim > and tick All Contacts (Contacts in sim card will not be shown in Airplane Mode)
or you can also use an app called ContactsToSIM
Hit Thanks if I helped

I do not think so. As far as I know, the stock ROM is odexed and Cm is deodexed.
