I have my contacts backed up to my sim card. I have used kaisertweak to disable them showing up in my contact list. But whenever in the phone program if i begin to dial the sim contacts show up in that also. is there a way to have them not show up there either?
It is a tilt with a stock at&t rom.

Hey guys, just got my new HTC Kaiser, aka T-Mobile Vario III [in UK] and having inserted my SIM and viewing my synchronised contacts in the contacts view i seem to have duplicate entries from both the SIM and phone source. Is there a way of switching which contacts i can seeas it takes longer to get to the contact i require due to all the duplications...
me too
yea, I'd love to hear the answer to this one because I have the same issue and was going to post the same thing. so ditto from me lol
There is no way to select which contacts you want.
All you can do is turn off SIM contacts view through registry or KaiserTweak by JONGMA (see sticky above) but there is aknown issue on TyTN II, after a reset, the SIM view contacts come back on.
i added my contacts from my sim manager to my contacts on my phone. and now it shows them 2 times. 1 for the sim, and 1 for the contacts. does anyone know how to fix this?? please help. thanks
I believe if you go into the start menu, go into settings, then phone, then call option, uncheck the "Show SIM contacts" box and you should be all set...
i dont have a call options menu. but i do apericate the try. the doubble contacts are drivin me nuts..
Um.. have to changed your OS vastly? Its a default phone option, weird that you dont have one under the phone settings. If your start menu isnt too changed should be start, button 8 for options, button 1 for phone, button 5 for call options under call forwarding above call waiting.
Unless your phone is locked I see no reason that menu would be on my s730 and not yours

Hmm, I dont have a wing but I know some phones will put it under a contacts option, or under a sim card option. Beyond that I cant help any further aside from google searches
Contacts
Use the Sim manager, it will let you move delete and copy contacts both in the sim and contacts.
On my phone, I have a problem with the contact list, I delete all the contacts on there already (the default contacts you get when you buy a new simcard like Directories, Show Balance, Voicemail etc.) and add my contacts on there, when I turn it off and switch it back on the list goes back to the default list again. Also, I tried it with my Bluetooth name (naming my device), when I restart it goes back to the default name after.....
Help please?

What ROM are you using? Where are you storing your contacts? Maybe you are adding your new contacts to SIM card and the program is setup to hide SIM contacts.
I'm using Dutty's WM6.1 Hybrid UC RTM
Bump... bump
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.
Ps. Phone HTC HD, WM 6.5 with manila 2.5 v 21.1.
It there any way how to disable SIM contacts?
I'm using Google contacts but I have also contacts on my SIM card in case my phone die. Then I can use my SIM card in another "spare" phone to make necessary calls. I don't want to delete my SIM contacts.
I found that I can filter contacts for dialer in 3rd party applications
but haven't found anything for SMS contacts. I'm using GO SMS Pro.
I always got duplicate contacts when I need to add new SMS contact.
Thanks in advance for help
Goto contacts>more>display options here you can disable sim contacts.
Unfortunately this doesn't work for the SMS Contacts. It works in Dialer and Contacts itself but when you access Contacts from SMS app I always have duplicate contacts. :-(

this happen when u have some voip apps like nimbuzz and some like that it add contacts in contacts open ur contacts and see is any thing duplicating or it is just one.
hi, my phone doesnt have any voip applications or anything like that, yet it still displays it.
anyone knows how to set it so it doesnt?
yeah, noticed that too long time ago, didn't find solution so I deleted contacts from SIM.Anyway, it's a lot easier to update contacts on google than to make backup every time u change (add,delete...) something in contacts...If telephone dies-buy another Android device...it would be a pity to downgrade...
