HI all!
How can I hide the sim contacts? Which is the registry key to modify?
I've tried TweakUI (modified for Trinity) and all tweak works, except "Show/Hide SIM contacts".
Greetings
Using htc sim manager, you can:
A) Move all sim contacts into an outlook contact(put pictures, etc) vice versa
B) Delete all sim contacts/outlook contacts
No reason you need to have both
I've all my contacts on device, but I want to leave saved the contacts also on my SIM card. The method to hide them, there is.

Registry: HKCU\ControlPanel\Phone
Key: ShowSim (dWord)
Set it to 0
But it'll go back to 1 if you Reset the device.
I installed PocketCM, since it doesn't show SIM i don't have to hide it anymore. Looks nicer too.
There was a file posted on this board to fix that issue. I forgot who posted it but here it is.
Thank you a lot! It works

Just moved over from Symbian UIQ 3 (m600i). I have no idea what CABS are and how to install the file you attached.
I also want to rid myself of seeing duplicated names as I want to see phone contacts but also retain SIM contacts. I go diving and change mobiles and still need the names & numbers.
copy the CAB to your phone and browse to it via the File Browser.. then execute.
not work!
please
This DOES work:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Phone]
"ShowSIM"=dword:00000001 ->0 to disable, 1 to enable.

I made and posted it only to modaco.com, but it's nice to know it made it here too; considering it's the only one I know of that works after soft-reset.

@f1ip: I don't have Pocket CM, but KaiserTweak is an easy way to hide SIM contacts (and it's only 377 kB + 47 kB for the .xml file, so it's not a memory hog)
@Corrupted Sanity: I too switch phones sometimes - don't want to take the expensive PDA to some environments.
@Everybody: I find that even though I have "Hide SIM Contacts" enabled, Voice Command still looks at them when I ask to dial a contact, and says "Showing 2 Found" and then asks which one you want to dial - a - anyone else have this experience?
Would like to have Voice Command ignore SIM contacts - the "Showing 2 Found" thing is so annoying that I ended up deleting all my SIM contacts, then I have to copy them back to the SIM if I want to transfer the SIM to another phone.

Did you even bother to read the release notes comment on Modaco? Or any followup comments? KaiserSimFix is the ONLY fix that still works after restart.
I don't know how i managed to fail in installation, but it seems not to work.

For the power, try this. Make a shortcut of the exe file in windows\startup folder.

You dont get what I mean, i dont want any tray launch,
this application is called "Schap's Power & Wireless service Manager (shows Bluetooth/Wi-Fi on traybar)" , develop by Schap, just only need power_srv.dll and wirelessMgr_srv.dll and enable some register keys...
besides, this Wireless service Manager = WIFI+BT+Flight mode in a icon..
so now, u know what i mean now??
and sorry for my poor english...
now clear
are you sure, that you need only these two dll files? looks like it has own icon "advanced configuration".. did you try to contact someone from hermes section, to give you these two files + reg. keys?

in fact, I got these 2 dlls from Schap's ROM and copy them (include power.exe) into my TYTN II, then import these 2 reg keys, now there r two icons on my kaiser's traybar, but, but, when I enable WIFI/BT/Flight mode,
only WIFI/Flight mode's icons show instead of wireless icon, so maybe need other dll reg. key i havn't found ...
I have asked Schap several times, even pm him, but still no answer, pity....
so only i can do is ask professional persons here...wow -_-
optiquest,
here is a full package of "advanced configuration". i tried to move it to \windows folder and run application, but there is an error msg. could you try and share your status?

if I change commManager in Advanced config (eg: add 3G or del something etc), next time when I reboot pda, I will get some error there...
Advanced config for me is useless except enable cleartype, so I think KaiserTweak will be better when I want to change somethiing in Registry.
So, I know how to edit registry and hide the sim contacts so that I dont have double of every contact. However when I turn the phone off then on they come back. Or when I reconnect it via USB.
how do I permanently hide the sim card contacts?
you are not using kaisertweaks??????? Why would you not be???????? It's in there.

Use my KaiserSimFix.cab.
I should probably update it to be more user friendly since I wrote it waay back when I didn't understand windows mobile that well.

it's in there however, it even states in the description that the sim contacts will show once device is restarted =/
i believe....
all you need to do is put a program in the startup folder that re-applys the registery tweak every time...
is that what your 'fix cab' does there?
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Phone]
"ShowSim"=dword:00000000

exactomundo, if you notice my release notes further down in the thread: http://www.modaco.com/content-page/258934/Tweak-requests-/page/20/#entry843620
winthropdc: Hello! doesn't survive soft-reset.
Hey all,
This is an issue that most TyTn2/Kaiser users probably face when starting up the device at first.
I have double contacts appearing on the Contact list - 1 "Outlook Contact" & 1 "SIM Contact".
I would like to use only the "Outlook contacts" - but I have no idea of how to make things tidy at this point - having about 100 double entries.
I guess i'd want the contacts on my SIM card too - to be on the safe side, but I don't want the SIM entries to appear on my contact list and make a mess with the Outlook contacts.
Another thing about contacts - is having them arranged by the Lastname. I'm used to seaching by Firstname, and changing them one by one is really frustrating!
Any suggestions?
Thank you all!
Noam.

Read my forum notes on it, and what ROM are you using? Next version, I'll package some notes, and have it auto-start.
KaiserSimFix is for ROMs that keep resetting the registry value, and will adjust the registry to hide after every soft-reset because:
IT'S a PROGRAM. I bet you guys aren't used to seeing programs that are < 5K.
So it works better than Advanced Config or KaiserTweak for these roms. For other less anal ROMs such as Dutty's, either of the former are super-fat but work too.
I've modified the registry entry, i've try to use advancedconfig, but no lucky...
I've try to shutdown after modification, I've try to softreset, but every time the sytem goes up, the sim contacts is visible and the regisrty key comes back to "1"...
Any suggestions?
Thanks guys.
this works on my dual hopefully reg is same ?
Same
Same with me , always sim contacts, did all the same, no luck
I have WWE 1.35

Get Schaps Advanced Config. Newest version is around 2.1, but the old ones all had the option to hide sim contacts too.

I don't think so...try to softreset (or power down) ...the SIM contact will be visible again.
I think that there is a startup program that recovers some registry keys.
Something similar happens also with deveicelock. If you use the device lock, the backlight timing is always set to 10seconds. If you change it, it works with the new timing until the next devicelock. (then it will be resetted to 10 seconds)

I've try several times with Sktools but after the softreset the sim contacts is visible...maybe something in my italian rom (1.35)? i really don't know.
yeah maybe. You could try to upgrade to 1.37.707.1
NikiSimFix
Had the same problem...
NikiSimFix.cab (program runs on startup) fixed this for me (probably imports a reg key on startup).
Cheers.
NikiSimFix
Tnx a Lot it works!!!
Excellent! It needs just a soft reset after installing
There is also a simpler way, which does not however survive a reset either (but it can be set through the standard menus instead of the registry, and it has the advantage of being easily toggled).
If - like me - you are synching your contacts from Outlook and do not want to see the SIM contacts, the easiest is to assign a category in Outlook to all your contacts, and then simply filter the All People view by that category. All your contacts are still there, and the SIM contacts disappear...
Doesn`t work for me. tried installing it to Device and Internal Storage performed a soft reset after both but sim contacts are still displayed. I think the only way to get this working is to delete all contacts from the sim then they definitely won`t show up.
**Edit** It seems to have worked after a second soft reset, brilliant

I've tried several tools and it keeps on coming back with me as well. Why oh why are such basic things so very badly implemented?
I'm using an O2 XDA Orbit 2 which I believe is basically a rebadged HYC Touch Cruise.
