Can someone help me on this? I've saved all my contacts into the SIM card and I know that they're still in there because when I wanted to add another contact into it after flashing, it was stated that the SIM is full. The problem is, the contacts won't appear even though I've checked the SIM contacts box under 'display options'.
Did you import them from the contacts menu .

I am having the same issue.. just went from Eclair to Gingerbread 2.3.3 and when I try to import contacts from SIM, none show up. Yet, when I put my SIM back into my Samsung Eternity, all of my contacts show up..
At least I know it's not just me!

Hi,
Im having problems with my contacts, There are some contacts that are on the sim card and not in the outlook contacts. So What I want to do is merge the two so Ive got one list with all the contacts on in outlook.
Ive tried sync'ing them with active sync but the sim contacts seem to be missing when I go to my PC and look in Outlook. Ive gone into sim manager and tried copying them but it hasn't seem to have done what I want. So I was wondering if there is a way to merge the two so i can back them up and just have one list with the two sets of contacts in.
I hope this makes sense and you guys understand what Im trying to do.
I would really appreciate any help you could give me and explain where im going wrong.
hello bro
i will answer you as much as i understoad you
to show your sim contacts on the list of contacts you have to do the folowing
open contacts and then open the menue and open sim manager
then select all contacts and save to contacts
then they will appear in your contacts list
i hope that what you meant
contacts problem
Thanks for the reply,
I've tried that, but when I go into outlook to view my contacts on my pc there are still contacts missing from the PC that are in my phone. I am not sure if they are sim contacts or ones stored in outlook on the phone.
I guess what im after is something to view/explore the contacts on my phone and sim card on the computer so I can see them infront of me on the computer screen. Then I can save them from the phone and sim card together into one file and merge the sim and phone contacts together to have one list of the two together.
I hope you guys can understand what im trying to achieve and help me out as I would be extreemly greatful.
Thanks,
John
Hi
I've had a search but I can't find anything regarding my question, which is this:
Is it possible to display the SIM contacts when the Contacts tab is selected?
From what I can see it is only the phone contacts that are visible. I am aware that I can copy my SIM contacts to the phone to get them to be visible, but this is not what I want to do if I can help it. I am also aware that I may not be able to get photos associated to my SIM contacts, but that's not a problem for me.
Thanks
Upgraded 2.1 Official rom.. Now contacts wont show?
I just upgraded to 2.1 but now my contacts wont show up in my contact book but they are appearing when people call/text? they're saved on my SD card and I've tried restoring several times. Anyone having this issue? I've tried rebooting and pulling them off my card using the import .vcard but then I get this process com.android.phone after 5 contacts are pulled in.
sorry if this isn't exactly developer section but I'm not sure where else to get a solution.
This probably belongs in sprint Q&A..
Don't you sync contacts with google?
I ported my contacts onto my SGS by putting my sim card into my old phone and copying my contacts to sim.
I then copied the contacts to my SGS phone. In "Contacts" I can choose to view contacts from phone only, but if I try to forward a text to a contact I am shown the contacts from the phone and the sim card which means that with the exception of new contacts there are two copies of every contact.
Is there any method of deleting all sim card contacts en block, or do I have to delete each one individually, I have over 100 contacts so it will take a long time.
Thanks in advance for any help.
So my issue is that when i go to messaging and compose new, then select contact it displays double info... and it looks identical(no sim symbl). Have already checked my contact display options. Everything is cool if i just go to contact app... it displays only one set of contacts, the one saved to phone. Can someone please help?
Had the same problem with Stock 2.1
I had this same problem when I first got my phone in November. It was because the contacts were on my sim card and saved to my phone. The display contact info is only for when you are in contacts i think. If you have all of your contacts on your phone I wwould delete them from your sim card or vise versa. Personally I sync everything with google that way I don't have to worry about them being on my phone at all.
