Hi,
i have recently bought a Captivate and have it unlocked. The problem is that the phone does not display my contacts list that are saved on my sim card. Any clues to make it display on my Captivate? if there is no solution for this, i think i have to copy one by one manually which is pain in the ass.
thanks a bunch.
Don't own a captivate but found this on google for the Galaxy S, I hope it works for you.
-Touch Contacts
-Touch the Menu key
-Touch More
-Touch Copy contacts
-Touch SIM to Phone
-Touch Select all
-Touch Copy
thanks for the guide.. ok, followed the guide, stuck at step 5.. there is no copy Sim to Phone.. there is only Import from SD card.. haish.. maybe my Sim card is an old one?
ok, solved the problem.. i just follow this guide here..

Very simple question this one folks.
Again, if it's been asked before then i apologise but i couldn't find a thing in the manual or on here about it
This is another one that is winding me up something rotten (see also http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1783707&posted=1#post1783707)
Example... on a Nokia, you can choose the view you wish to have in your contacts list by going into options etc etc and selecting either... SIM ONLY, SIM AND PHONE MEMORY or just PHONE MEMORY.
Obviously the PHONE MEMORY on a WM5 or 6 would be OUTLOOK so... how do you display OUTLOOK ONLY, no SIM involved???
Am i making sense here?! lol

Remove SIM Contacts CAB. Ok, that's another answer i've been given!
Thanks for that one my friend
I'm using the latest version of Slide2Unlock found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=381588
Tried asking my question there, but no responses so far so I thought I'd ask in the Kaiser specific forum.
Everything seems to be working fine except when I get a call from someone in my contacts, it displays only the Number instead of their name. Anyone know how to fix this to get their name to be displayed instead?
Thanks.
I had that same problem before and it was because my contact list was from my SIM card and not the phone's memory. I had to move all my SIM contacts to the phone memory and it was fixed. Hope that fixes your problem..
i am quite sure if you open the slide to unlock settings there is an option for how you want the contact to be displayed.

There is something to display how the number is displayed ie. (###) ###-#### or ###-###-###
I haven't come across anything that says whether or not to display the name of the contact. If you could point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated.

That could be the problem. All of my contacts are on my SIM card as I just got the phone about a week ago and haven't transferred them over yet. I'll see if that makes a difference. Thanks.
yeah, my contact names show up..... i am using S2U2 1.00 w/o any issues

Are your contacts from your SIM card or stored on your phone?
there is an option to 'enable caller id' this puts the contact picture on screen
Slide2Unlock which Ver????
I,m a noob and I read so much. But which version works 100% in a ATT Tilt with out a cooked ROM. I really like to know
Hi, Sorry if ther eis already info on this, i have been searching but haven't found anything.
I jsut changed to the resently released HTC WM6.1 ROM on my Orange TyTN iI. everything is working great, but for some reason i get the orange servce numbers (answerphone, text center etc) appear in my contact list.
I've tried updating the SIM manager application but doesnt seem to have fixed the issue.
Thanks,
stupid question, but alot of factory ROM's add those numbers to your contacts, Have you deleted them from your contacts? Thats all you need to do.
Those numbers can't be deleted as the delete button is greyed out and they don't exist in the sim manager program, you can just hide them using the kaiser tweak tool
Thanks, i'll try that out.
I don't really think it's a stupid question though, as said above, the "delete" option is grayed out. As i said in my original post the nubers are the service numbers stored on the SIM. I don't really appreciate such unhelpful replies.
funny must be a SIM thing cause I can delete them whey they come up on certain ROM's into my phone contacts. I had them on my SIM at one time and they are deleted.
**HAHAHAHA, no sorry i meant me, my question, i thought i was readin it wrong. i see now how it can be misunderstood. my bad**
**Did you go into the Sim Manager, Menu, Tools, and go to Service Dialing Numbers... and try deleting from there?**
I did try using the SIM mangaer but it doesn't give te option to delete the service dialing numbers. It's quite strange, but have managed to hide them with the tweak tool.
yea as i said its probably built into the sim. I guess if they are going to start pulling that shiz then i will have to make sure to keep my sim card. if i can help it i never let them swap out my sim card. usually those little bastards will do it without saying anything anymore.
Hi,
First off, thank you for a really information rich and professional forum!
To my problem, I have the HTC Touch Diamond and I recently changed ROM to dutty's. By mistake I deleted all contacts in my phone book, unfortunately all my SIM contacts were deleted as well. I understand that it might be impossible to restore them since they were stored physically on a SIM card but I have seen some people in this forum manage to do things with this phone that I did'nt think were possible so I thought that I'll give you guys a try.
Is there a way to undo the deleting or am I screwed?
well though i can`t help you i`d like to give you an advice. didn`t you read in flashing manual BACKUP before flashing ? always backup backup backup unless you don`t store your contacts on Exchange server
Oh the problem did not occur after or during flashing, I just wanted you to know which ROM I am using. I could have done this with the stock ROM as well..
I just wanted to know if the diamond was that advanced that it stored all my deleted elements in the memory until I restart it.
Did your contacts really get deleted?
Dutty usually disables the display of SIM contacts (as do other cooks).
They might still be there, you just might not be seeing them.
^.^
check the sim manager
they maybe there...hiding!
i have flashed 100's rom and they have never touched the sim cards
Hehe as I said in my previous post it has nothing to do with the ROM-flashing. When I enter the SIM Manager it is empty and when I look at the properties of my SIM card it is totally empty, no entries, blank.. ****ed in other words
I dont count on solving this problem as the contacts are physically deleted but it would be really cool if the phone had it stored in the memory somewhere..

it sounds like you may be buggerd m8
your old phone still don't have a contacts list i take it?
I dont understand what you mean with "old phone" but I take it as you wonder if I have my contacts on the phone I used before the Diamond. I still do have some contacts on that one but not all unfortunately. Well seems like the only thing I can do is adding the contacts manually when I receive calls from my friends :\
Thank you anyway for your time!
hi evryone. hope u ppl r doing fine. actually i wanted to chk, is there a way that when i click contacts, tytn ii wud show only phone contacts. i mean it shows contacts both on sim n phone n they kida get doubled u knw..... thnx
you dont have such option , only way is to copy all the contacts from sim to phone and delete the sim contacts so it will not show u twice
To do so:-
contacts - Menu - Sim manager - select all - save to contacts. (It will save all the contacts to phone)
To delete the sim contacts.
contacts - Menu - sim manager - select all - Delete. (It will delete all)
WHOA WHOA WHOA, How did noone come in here and stop this. Jesus.
FIRST OF ALL, Searching would have found what you wanted.
SECOND OF ALL, the reply was total BS and somewhat destructive.
There are about 3 ways to solve this problem and all of them let you retain the info on the SIM card.
OMG I can't believe this.
Ok
1. KaiserTweak
2. Advanced Config
3. There is a cab file somewhere that does this.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE use the search option.
As ChumleyEX states please use the search before posting "there is a whole thread pn the subject" all that it does otherwise is clutter the forum and make it harder for posters in same position to search.
Have attached a .cab that does this click to hide \ click to show "does not work on all ROMs" if doesn't hide on reboot you can copy the .lnk to Windows startup.
On that note thread closed.
